Since the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Consensus Development Conference (1983) concluded that liver transplantation was a procedure deserving of wider application to the treatment of end-stage liver disease, there has been a very considerable increase in the number of centers performing liver transplantation, in Europe as well as in the United States. The number of operations performed has increased logarithmically (Figure 1, in Höckerstedt and Kankaanpää, p. 453). With the detailed overall assessment of liver transplantation in Europe by Höckerstedt and Kankaanpää, we will take the opportunity to review the position in Great Britain from a physician's, i.e., non-surgeon's, viewpoint as seen from one of the two centers (Cambridge/King's College and Birmingham) currently recognized in this country. This is based on an experience of 255 cases dating from the first liver transplant performed in Great Britain by Professor Roy Y. Calne in May 1968.

The author examines Russia’s planning of warfare in Central Asia in 1878 while preparing for a possible war with the coalition of Great Britain, Austria-Hungary and Turkey. The development of the war plan was caused by the inability of the Russian army weakened by the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878 to conduct active military operations in Europe. Instead, it was aimed to influence Great Britain by creating a threat to its richest colony - India. In the historical literature there is no clear answer to the question about the goals of the unsuccessful Jam expedition. In this regard, the aim of this research is to reveal the content of the failed campaign’s plan based on the available historical sources and try to reconstruct Russia’s war plan against Great Britain in Central Asia, as well as to show its significance in the further process of war planning in the region. The author comes to conclusion that the Russian military-political leadership initially expected to invade India, but due to the changed situation they conducted just demonstration actions. The failure of the Jam expedition showed the Russian commanders the need to search for a springboard for future actions against India. Moreover, based on the experience of the unsuccessful campaign, the Russian commanders began regular planning for war against Great Britain in Central Asia which provided for the conduct of offensive operations in the direction of Herat.

The article considers Russia planning a war against the coalition of Great Britain, Austria-Hungary and Turkey in 1878. When the Russo-Turkish war of 1877-1878 was over, the Russian high military command attempted to resolve the Eastern Question and seize the Strait of Bosphorus and Constantinople. Having faced the opposition from Great Britain and Austria-Hungary, the Rus-sian command hesitated to capture Constantinople and the Bosphorus, which led to Russia's failure at the Congress of Berlin. War plans worked out by the General Staff and two-star general N.N. Obruchev, meant to help conduct military operations in the Balkans and Galicia were never realised.

The scientific article is devoted to the study of the purpose of the monetary policy of the central banks of the EU member states and Great Britain, its instruments and legal acts, in which they are fixed. The legislation of the member countries of the European Union (Germany, France, Spain, Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary) and Great Britain, modern approaches in the science of constitutional and administrative law regarding the definition of the goal of the monetary policy of the central banks of the member countries of the EU, and the range of its instruments are analyzed. Emphasis is placed on the fact that the purpose and functions of national banks are interrelated, but not identical. The concept of the goal of the monetary policy of the Central Banks of the EU member states, the activities and instruments of the monetary policy, the functions of the central bank of the EU member states are delineated. It is argued that reducing the purpose of the activities of the central banks of EU member states and Great Britain exclusively to the implementation of legal regulation of currency circulation in the state and that the main purpose of the central banks of such EU member states as the Czech Republic, Poland, and Hungary is purely to ensure the stability of the currency - is not justified. It is argued that the main joint functions of the central banks of Germany, France, Spain, Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Great Britain are to ensure the stability of the monetary unit, to promote the maintenance of sustainable rates of economic growth, to achieve and maintain price stability in the state, and to support economic policy. It is established that the goal of the monetary policy of the central banks of the EU member states is to ensure price stability, and it is additionally substantiated that the inflationary inclination of the financial policy is the most effective. It was established that the accounting policy, the interest rate policy, and the regulation of mandatory reserve norms, the volume of the money supply, operations on the open market and operations with credit resources, the amount of interest rates, interest rates of the mandatory reserve of banks are not the purpose of monetary and credit policies, instruments of monetary policy of the central banks of EU member states and Great Britain.

Abstract The specificity of students’ technological training in Finland and Great Britain has been considered. It has been found that the state policy of foreign countries is aimed at providing students with professional knowledge, work skills and combining comprehensive and professional training. Specific attention has been paid to the subjects and courses in foreign countries, which are equivalent to the course on technological training. It has been indicated that establishing connections between school, industry and production is one of the important conditions for improving technological training. The specificity of students’ technological training in Finnish schools at different levels of education has been characterized. Indeed, the level of education defines the character of technological operations differentiation based on the materials of manufactured products; gradual introduction of professional and polytechnical optional and specialized courses, whose volume corresponds to regional conditions; organization of visits to production, agricultural and forestry enterprises; active participation of students in professional production, which contributes to acquiring practical experience in the chosen production area. It has been revealed that Finnish schools pay particular attention to the importance of proper facilities and resources and fully equipped workshops, namely joiner’s shops, locksmith shops, tailor’s shops, fully equipped teaching kitchens and canteens. It has been revealed that technological training of students in Great Britain is characterized by their active involvement into field experience; establishment of mini-enterprises based on comprehensive schools; centralization in solving the main objectives in the field of students’ technological training. It has been stated that the mini-enterprises in schools contribute to strengthening the relations between school and the labour market. The common form of students’ technological training is industrial placement and the main method is project-based learning.

The general trends of the institutional development of cybertroops (cyber forces) in certain NATO countries (Great Britain, the USA) are determined. Regulatory documents, devoted to the formation of cybertroops in these NATO member countries have been analyzed. The competence, powers and functional tasks of practical activities of cyber units are considered. The content and significance of the cognitive effect doctrine and the consequences of its use are outlined. The peculiarities of the use of cyber troops in the framework of conducting defensive and offensive cyber operations are summarized. The achievements and examples of successful activities of the cyber forces of Great Britain and the United States are detailed. On the basis of the generalization of positive foreign experience in the creation of cyber forces, the prospects of legislative support for the institutional formation of cyber forces in Ukraine are outlined.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
This thesis examines Anglo-Greek relations during 1947-1952; the era of the Greek civil war from the British announcement to withdraw aid from Greece until the end of the civil war and Greece's entry into NATO. A comprehensive treatment of the crisis of the civil of the civil war focuses on British imperial defence, the politics and society of Greece and bilateral relations as formulated by Cold War needs. During the rift between the Right and the Left in Greece, the main issue addressed by this work is the continuation of British influence in Greek affairs and the extension of British interest in bolstering the anti-Communist fight of the Greek government. In 1947 Britain, being itself on the verge of economic collapse, opted to discontinue financial support to the Greek right-wing government, which boosted the enunciation of the Truman Doctrine in March 1947. In the wake of American interference in Greece, Anglo-Greek relations remained close and intense, as the Greek governments maintained their trust in the British. For the British, Greece remained a destitute country, in need for assistance to defeat the communists. This study emphasises the diplomatic and military co-operation between the British, the American and the Greek governments in trying to defeat the communist forces, while attention is given to the policy and aims of the Greek Communist Party. The communist attempts to take over power along with the policies of the Greek governments and their allies are examined, with particular emphasis on the counterinsurgency operations of the Greek government developed from 1947 until the final defeat of the communist forces in 1949. The British role in these operations is considered to be important and influential in training and equipping the Greek armed forces. In the first post-civil war period of 1950-1953, the main issues examined are the attempts made by the Greek governments and the allies to establish a strong democratic cabinet and to strengthen the security of Greece within the context of international Cold War policies. Due to anti-Communist perceptions, precipitated by the Korean War, Greece became a quasi NATO member in 1950 and full member in 1952, which brought the withdrawal of the British Military Mission from Greece.

This thesis is a history of the Polish Country Section of the Special Operations Executive (SOE), a British organisation whose purpose was to infiltrate agents behind enemy lines during World War II. The thesis covers the period 1940 – 1946, the entire period that SOE existed, and its close connection with the Polish special department, formally known as the Sixth Bureau of the Polish Government in Exile. Chapters contained herein each cover a full year of operations from 1941 -1943, followed by two chapters for 1944, and one chapter for 1945-1946. Covered are details of agent training, information on the first flight to Poland to drop agents and couriers and the problems encountered. The German invasion of the Soviet Union and SOE’s thoughts on the predicted outcome is covered, as are also Polish operations in France and indications of support for Polish operations in other parts of the world. Throughout, is evidence of the difficulties in obtaining sufficient air support for flights to Poland which, although inadequate for Polish requirements, were more abundant than many realised at the time. This is especially true with reference to supplies dropped to Warsaw during the rising of 1944. Brief accounts of the meetings between the ‘Big Three’, Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin, at Teheran and Yalta in as much as they affected SOE/Polish relations. The thesis finishes with appendices detailing agent/courier parachute drops, lists of personnel involved, a bibliography and glossary.

McLay, Keith Andrew John. „Combined operations : British naval and military co-operation in the wars of 1688-1713“. Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2003. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/1269/.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
This thesis assesses British naval and military co-operation in the form of combined operations during the Nine Years War, 1688-1697, and the War of the Spanish Succession, 1702-1713. The operational history of the joint actions is related and used to drive forward the determination of two inter-related themes. These are, how combined operations might be defined as an instrument of warfare during this period; and secondly, the place of such operations within the military component of Britain's wartime Grand Strategy. With respect to the former, previous definitions embodying the benchmarks of objectives and composition of force are set against the history and built upon to incorporate three further categories of definition: theatre of war, bureaucratic control and command structure. As a result, it is argued that no blanket definition for combined operations can be arrived at, but that any one of the five categories can provide insights into combined operations as an instrument of warfare. The second theme places the strategic objectives of these operations within the context of British war policy and explores their relationship to the 'Maritime' and 'Continental' strategic traditions. While it becomes clear that combined operations were thought to possess neither an independent nor a war-winning strategic capability, they do appear to have consistently filled a role in Grand Strategy which acted either simultaneously or separately in support of the naval and military strategic interests. With the categories for definition and a strategic role established for such joint army-navy ventures, the thesis concludes by considering whether during these wars there were any factors common to the more successful, and conversely to the failing, combined operations. Although a pattern or mould for a successful combined operation cannot be established, it is shown that the origins of the developed historical practice of this type of warfare - demonstrated to such effect later in the eighteenth century - can be traced in the two wars considered in this study.

This thesis examines the doctrinal and practical development of tactical air forces by the Royal Air Force until the end of the Second World War. It focuses on the fundamental disagreements over the uses of air power, the preference for a strategic vision and the pressing need for tactical air forces in the face of the exigencies of war. This paper will trace the gradual provision of air support to the land forces and the formidable and fundamental changes that occurred during operations in various theatres in the Second World War.

This study explores the role of the Royal Navy's North American squadron in protecting Britain's colonies and trade in North America from 1847 to 1815. The squadron had its origins in the war of 1739--48, when it became clear that a fleet based on the eastern Atlantic or the West Indies could not adequately support operations in the North American theatre. The British naval establishment, however, even when North America was the principle theatre of war, never developed as strong an attachment to the North American squadron as it did to its fleets in the West Indies or other theatres. It was, with a few notable exceptions, generally treated as one of the lesser commands of the Royal Navy, and rarely received more than secondary consideration from the Admiralty. This was especially true during the Napoleonic Wars, in which the North American station was viewed a one of the 'quiet' stations, especially when compared to the more active stations in the West Indies.England's main priority was in defeating France, and she was willing to achieve this at the expense of antagonizing the United States, leading to an unnecessary war with them in 1812. Yet even when faced with a new war in North America, the needs of the squadron were considered of secondary importance to the war in Europe, and several months passed before sizable reinforcements were sent to the North American theatre. Even when the war in Europe ended in 1814, the British leaders continued to treat North America as a secondary theatre. Their efforts to gain victory were at best half-hearted, and the government was more interested in demobilizing the navy to cut costs than in defeating the United States.
The War of 1812 brought little glory to England or the Royal Navy, and there was much criticism in the way the conflict was fought after the war. The inability of England's leaders to correctly read the situation in the United States or to understand the American threat led them to send forces inadequate to wage more than a limited war in North America. Despite this, the performance of the North American Squadron in this period was far more commendable than has generally been acknowledged, especially in light of the handicaps set upon it. This work will give a detailed description of the operations of the squadron, to give a better understanding of its role in this period.

Notre étude trace le role de la marine britannique en Amérique du Nord entre 1807 et 1815. L'origine de la flotte remonte à la guerre de 1739-48, quand c'était devenu évident que les flottes dans le secteur de l'est Atlantique ou dans les Antilles n'étaient pas capables de supporter des opérations en Amérique du Nord. Mais cette flotte était rarement considérée comme une des flottes importantes dans la marine britannique. Ceci était le cas durant la guerre contre Napoléon, quand la flotte américaine protégeait un secteur perçu comme tranquille comparativement à la flotte antillaise, elle plus active.

AbstractIn Great Britain, 70% of wind-related faults on the transmission power network are attributed to the top 1% gusts. These faults cause outages to millions of customers and have extensive cascading impacts. This study illustrated the application of historical ground measured wind data in a multi-phase resilience analysis process by: (i) projecting an extreme wind event, (ii) assessing components’ vulnerabilities, (iii) analysing system’s response, (iv) quantifying baseline resilience, and (v) evaluating the effectiveness of selected adaptation measures. The extreme event was modelled as a ubiquitous 100-year return gust event impacting upon the operations of the Reduced Great Britain transmission network test case. The results show an unmet demand of about 569 GWh/Week. Adaptation measures were necessary for 60% of transmission corridors with responsiveness improving resilience by 70%, robustness by 55%, and redundancy by 35%. The study implies that resilience enhancement can be prioritized within high potency corridors and organisational resilience could prove to be more effective than infrastructural and operational resilience.

Abstract The fairytale author Noor Inayat Khan served the Allied cause as an undercover radio operator for the Special Operations Executive in the Second World War and was executed in Dachau, Germany in 1944. Hailed as a “British Muslim hero,” Noor is now frequently invoked as a symbol of national coherence in an age of racial and religious pluralism. This chapter compares the rhetorically-constructed symbol with the historically-founded reality. It finds that Noor’s allegiance to Great Britain was of a pre- and post-nationalist character; that Noor embraced a vision of Islam that was notably universal in scope; and that her heroic sensibility found its most natural and immediate expression in literature. Noor’s essays and stories codified the ethical and spiritual paradigm from which her wartime choices derived.

Abstract The introduction identifies depictions of Allied troops’ arrival at Bergen-Belsen in April 1945, and the British-run trial of personnel from the camp held at Lüneberg in September–October the same year, as key reference points for the understanding of the Holocaust in British culture at this period. But other aspects of Nazi criminality, such as the fates of the Allied soldiers who were recaptured after the so-called Great Escape of prisoners of war from Stalag Luft III, or the treatment of Special Operations Executive agents detained while working undercover on mainland Europe, also vied for attention as a narrative of the war began to take shape. Early depictions of the camps show a number of characteristics that persist in the texts to be discussed in detail in later chapters. The names of camps are often used metonymically in place of more extensive descriptions, a device that implies a shared understanding on the part of readers, but which can appear to minimize or pass over important defining details. Similarly, in fictional works, minor characters are often given the burden of representing or standing for the varied fates of the victims of Nazism. While this strategy could also be seen as tokenistic, it often has a disruptive effect on the narrative as a whole. Where autobiographical or biographical accounts are concerned, generic uncertainty is also characteristic, with authors acknowledging, through structural and stylistic experiment, the representational challenges posed by the events they are attempting to describe.

Abstract Chapter 3 examines texts by and about British prisoners who were held in concentration camps, rather than prisoner-of-war camps, many of them Special Operations Executive agents captured while working undercover, some of whom, including some women, were executed. Reporting of trials relating to these cases was supplemented during the late 1940s and early 1950s by biographical accounts aimed at a popular readership, including Jerrold Tickell’s Odette (1949), which describes Odette Sansom’s time as a prisoner at Ravensbrück concentration camp, Peter Churchill’s The Spirit in the Cage (1954), recounting his captivity in Sachsenhausen and Dachau, and R. J. Minney’s Carve Her Name with Pride (1956), which culminates in an account of Violette Szabo’s execution at Dachau. These texts evidence a tendency to deflect attention away from the wider project of which such camps were a part, contributing to an over-simplified description of Nazi personnel and drawing on stereotypes of either German ‘national character’, or criminal ‘types’. These texts not only contributed to a narrowing of public understanding in Britain as to what constituted Nazi crimes, but also engaged in debates about Britishness and British values in the wake of war. But other examples of this subgenre of agents’ biographies, including Jean Overton Fuller’s Madeleine (1952) and Elizabeth Nicholas’s Death Be Not Proud (1958), do attempt a more nuanced account not only of the agents’ experiences but of the problems, in the wake of the war, of identifying witnesses and constructing coherent narratives of covert activities.

This chapter focuses on minesweeping vessels in service in the seas around the British Isles in the early spring of 1915. It describes the domestic sphere of operations of trawlers and their crews that primarily focused on the east coast of England. It also mentions the minesweepers that sailed out of Scottish ports and provided protection for the Grand Fleet and other Royal Navy surface ships. The chapter looks at the disposition of the flotillas of fishermen and hired fishing vessels that reflected the main areas of German minelaying off the coasts of Britain in the first year of the Great War. It details the significant operations that had taken place off the eastern side of the Dogger Bank.

Under the leadership of Alfred von Tirpitz, the German navy concentrated on building a battle fleet based in the North Sea rather than cruisers designed for operations in distant waters. This has led many historians to assume that commerce warfare (Handelskrieg) played no real part in German preparations for war against Britain before 1914. This chapter disputes this analysis. It shows that Germany’s naval planners in the Admiralstab believed that by converting merchant ships into auxiliary cruisers and using them to attack British commerce on the high seas the German navy would be able to cause considerable damage to British shipping and so force the Royal Navy to divert forces from the main theatre of war to distant oceans. It goes on to examine the reality of this plan during the First World War.

Abstract The Great Depression brought the political, economic, and social turmoil that was instrumental in Hitler’s rise to power and the worldwide tragedy that followed. Developments in the world of intelligence reflected these events. German and Japanese intelligence expanded to meet the requirements of their nations’ aggressive foreign policies. As Germany and Japan became more obviously a world menace, the intelligence establishments of the United States, Great Britain, and France expanded their operations to cope with the increasingly hostile international environment.

The essay is devoted to the intelligence assessment of planning for war against Great Britain in Central Asia in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The systematic preparation for war against Great Britain began during the Pandjeh Incident of 1885 and continued until 1914. Russian war planning foresaw offensive operations against the British Indian Army in Central Asia. The development of the “Invasion of India” plan became a high-priority objective for the Russian General Staff during the lowest point of relations with Great Britain. After 1905, the development of this plan was abandoned. Study of the British Indian Army and possible enemy war plans in Central Asia by Russian military intelligence played an important role in the war planning. The Russian General Staff's preparation for a war against Afghanistan and British India in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries was carried out with a lack of information about the region and enemies. After the Russo-Japanese war, the War Ministry began paying more attention to the conduct of intelligence activities and the scientific analysis of information about the region. Since 1904, Russian military intelligence had observed the development of a large-scale reform of the British Indian Army, initiated by General H. Kitchener. The Russian General Staff came to the wrong conclusions about the threat to Turkestan. Therefore, exaggerated estimates of the military readiness and plans of Great Britain influenced Russian strategic planning and brought about the cancellation of the “Invasion of India” plan in 1905-1910.

The Ottoman Empire, under pressure from its ally Germany, declared a jihad shortly after entering the First World War. The move was calculated to rouse Muslims in the British, French and Russian empires to rebellion. Dismissed at the time and since as a ‘jihad made in Germany’, the Ottoman attempt to turn the Great War into a holy war failed to provoke mass revolt in any part of the Muslim world. Yet, as German Orientalists predicted, the mere threat of such a rebellion, particularly in British India, was enough to force Britain and its allies to divert scarce manpower and materiel away from the main theatre of operations in the Western Front to the Ottoman front. The deepening of Britain’s engagement in the Middle Eastern theatre of war across the four years of World War I can be attributed in large part to combating the threat of jihad.

In this article are approaches of Air Navigation Services (ANS) providers in chosen countries to UAV integration into Air Traffic Control Systems identified and described. Firstly we made a synpaper of theoretical information about ANS and UAV. Product of ANS providers has 11 parts. For UAV traffic control and management are important ATC, CNS, AIS, MET, ATFCM and ASM services. The volume of ANS provided depends on UAV operation development in the country, and on the level of integration of UAV into ATC systems. The biggest problem of UAV operation is the risk of collision with piloted aircraft, and potential threat of people and property on the ground. The biggest risk is during UAV operation close to airports, because there are many aircrafts flying in low altitudes (after take-off and on approach to landing). The consequences of collision in this altitudes in the most serious. Because of this, 4 ways to detect and 2 ways to mitigate an unauthorized UAV close to airport are currently in use. Various combinations of UAV detection and mitigation ways create complex airport UAV protection systems. Secondly, we chose 7 countries (Poland, Hungary, Germany, Great Britain, USA, India, and United Arab Emirates), and analysed their approaches to UAV integration. In all of the analysed countries can remote pilots use a mobile application, which allows them to create a flight plan, and receive all the information, necessary for the flight. Differences between these countries are for example if the permission in required for every UAV flight (in Hungary and India yes), if the ANS provider has an opportunity to watch UAV during flight (in Poland, India, and partly in Germany), if the UAV operation without direct visual contact between remote pilot and UAV is allowed (in Poland and Germany), and if are UAV operations included into airspace capacity management systems (in Poland, Hungary, Germany, and Great Britain). UAV integration process in next years will relate to development of communication systems between UAVs, between UAV and ATC, and between UAV and piloted aircraft. The process will also relate to development of technologies to avoid mid-air collisions.

Abstract Biomass and the bio-economy have strong potential to help shift dependency away from petroleum. Supply chain optimisation (SCO) has been used to help other industries and can be used to boost biomass industry viability. Biomass supply chain models frequently average the biomass yield of large tracts of land in their calculations. However, there can be large variation in the biomass yield within those tracts, losing useful information. This work presents a biomass SCO framework which approximates the available quality of land by piecewise linearly approximation of the biomass yield distribution, and incorporates this information into the optimisation. The linear estimates of the biomass yield distributions allow the SCO model to make more informed decisions about quantity and location of biomass growth operations, affecting all downstream decisions. A case study of mainland Great Britain has been examined using the framework to illustrate the impact of retaining biomass yield information in the optimisation, versus averaging the yield across tracts of land. The case study found that using biomass yield linear estimates reduced the overall land usage by 10%. Further, it improved biomass output, which increased the quantity of bio-products produced. All of this led to an increase in the overall profit.

The Research Institute for Brown Coal j. s. c. (VUHU) has been involved in the research project of the EU Research Fund of Coal and Steel - The impact of extreme weather events on mining operations for four years. The project is focused on assessing the impact of climate change on mining activities in major European coal basins. Other participants are scientific teams from Poland, Great Britain, Spain, Germany and Greece. This is the last year of the project solving, so this paper summarizes the results of the solution for the Czech Republic. The first part of the paper summarizes the knowledge of the historical development of the climate, including significant climatic disasters. Attempts to reconstruct the paleoclimate in the Tertiary based on the evaluation of preserved geological phenomena are also briefly evaluated here. The next part of the paper evaluates the development of temperature and precipitation in the wider area of the Most Basin, including the forecast for the future and the impact of climate change on mining and reclamation. Therefore, the greatest attention is paid to the proposed adaptation strategies. All laboratory analyses carried out as part of this research were carried out by VUHU testing laboratories accredited by CIA according to CSN EN 150-IEC 17025 on the basis of internal methodological procedures based on relevant standards.

Начало специальной военной операции на Украине по демилитаризации и денацификации привело к яркому проявлению целого ряда трендов в самых разных областях жизни. Одним из таких трендов стала культура отмены русскости во всех ее проявлениях (культурном, научном, историческом и др.), что свидетельствует о трансформации военной доктрины и формировании новых театров военных действий, среди которых особое значение приобретает сфера информационно-психологического противоборства. Еще в 1960 году Е. Э. Месснер (1891-1974) предсказал, что в ХХI веке главным театром военных действий станет ментальная сфера. Принято различать жесткую силу (hard power) и мягкую силу (soft power). Жесткая сила связана с использованием метода кнута и пряника для получения желаемого результата. Мягкая сила (soft power) дает возможность привлекать людей на свою сторону без применения насилия. В США, Германии, Великобритании и некоторых других западных странах методы психотерапии рассматриваются как элементы мягкой силы, направленной на формирование прозападного мировоззрения и системы ценностей. Продвижение определенных психотерапевтических методов на территории Восточной Европы, Постсоветского пространства и Китая финансируется западными фондами, аффилированными с государственными структурами. Так можно вспомнить, что на Украине западная психотерапия начала массово укореняться при поддержке различных западных фондов и институтов, начиная примерно с 2005, а в Белоруссии – с 2012 года. В апреле 2022 года в ВКонтакте нами был проведен опрос российских психотерапевтов «Уважаемые коллеги, способны ли Вы отличить Добро от Зла?», в котором принял участие 86 специалистов. Выборка носила случайный характер. Почти 40% респондентов признали, что не в состоянии отличить Добро от Зла. В ситуации, когда основным актуальным запросом клиентов является выработка собственной позиции по отношению к СВО на Украине, данный показатель свидетельствует о растерянности самих специалистов, работающих в западных психотерапевтических подходах. Для решения проблемы необходимо снятие негласного общественного запрета на разработку российских методик мировоззренческой психотерапии (для западных специалистов таких ограничений нет) и развитие проактивности у психотерапевтов и психологов-консультантов. The start of a special military operation in Ukraine on demilitarization and denazification led to a bright manifestation of a number of trends in a variety of areas of life. One of these trends was the culture of the abolition of Russianism in all its manifestations (cultural, scientific, historical, etc.), which shows the transformation of military doctrine and the formation of new theaters of war, among which the sphere of information and psychological confrontation is of particular importance. Back in 1960, E. E. Messner (1891-1974) predicted that in the 21st century the mental sphere would become the main theater of military operations. It is customary to distinguish between hard power and soft power. Hard power is associated with using the carrot and sticks method to produce the desired result. Soft power makes it possible to attract people to your side without the use of violence. In the USA, Germany, Great Britain and some other Western countries, psychotherapy methods are seen as elements of soft power aimed at forming a pro-Western worldview and value system. The promotion of certain psychotherapeutic methods in Eastern Europe, post- Soviet countries and China is financed by Western funds affiliated with government agencies. Therefore, we can recall that western psychotherapy in Ukraine began to take root in the population with the support of various western foundations and institutions, starting around 2005, and in Belarus since 2012 In April 2022, on VKontakte, we conducted a survey of Russian psychotherapists "Dear colleagues, are you able to distinguish Good from Evil?" 86 specialists participated in the survey. The sample group was random. Almost 40% of respondents admitted that they were unable to distinguish Good from Evil. In a situation where the main urgent request of clients is to develop their own position in relation to a special military operation in Ukraine, this indicator shows the confusion of the specialists themselves working in western psychotherapeutic approaches. In order to solve the problem, it is necessary to remove the unspoken public ban on the development of Russian methods of worldview psychotherapy (there are no such restrictions for western specialists) and the development of proactive psychotherapists and psychologists-consultants.

L51518 Outside Force Defect Behavior. Chantilly, Virginia: Pipeline Research Council International, Inc. (PRCI), August 1986. http://dx.doi.org/10.55274/r0010200.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
Damage that occurs in post-hydrotest operations, such as third party contractors hitting the pipeline with mechanical equipment at a later date, clearly cannot be removed by the hydrotest and may cause failure at the time the damage occurs or at some later time depending on the defect severity and the service conditions. Damage induced while a line is in service, such as during pipeline repair or from miscellaneous nearby construction, presents the most common type of service defect and potentially the most hazardous. Therefore, it is desirable to determine the severity of such defects in order to assess the serviceability of the damaged area (and thus avoid costly downtime). Understanding the basic mechanisms of mechanical damage failure also will assist in specifying fracture toughness requirements for future line pipe steels. The specific objective of this research is to develop a means of assessing the severity of mechanical damage defects and the effect of fracture toughness in resisting the failure of these defect types. Prior research studies provide in-depth consideration of the separate effects of plain dents and simulated gouges (sharp machine surface flaws with negligible indentation) on gas line pipe integrity. The failure characteristics of such defects are well understood. Recent studies on mechanical damage have concentrated on the complex behavior of a localized gouge within a dent, the most typical form of damage that occurs in the industry. However, these experimental studies were hampered in that the defect combinations had to be introduced into the pipe test section at ambient pressure in order to produce adequate repeatability. The past research has been included for completeness. The most recent research differs from past work in that the effects of dynamically produced dent-and-gouge defects in line pipe under pressure are studied. This provides a more realistic representation of the type of outside force damage that occurs in service. Nearly all research on this subject has been conducted at two laboratories, at the Battelle Columbus Division and at British Gas Corporation research facilities at Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Great Britain. British Gas conducted most of their research using rings cut from pipe, damaged, and then tested on a ring yield-test-machine, using the same type of ring tester used by pipe mills to determine pipe yield strength. British Gas also conducted tests on pipe that was damaged while not pressurized and later on pressurized and damaged pipe. Battelle's efforts involved pipe testing both on pipes that were damaged and then pressured to failure and on pipes damaged while pressurized. It is believed that gouge length is a strong influencing parameter, and it is not possible to use gouge length as a variable in the ring test method.
