Abstract:
At present some 7000 jobs are available for young Australians in the Australian Defence Force. As a part of recruiting strategies the Defence Force Recruiting Branch regularly examines the issues and concerns on which 17–24 year olds base their career decisions. This case study describes the key findings of recent research undertaken by two different consultants on the perceptions of young Australians towards schooling, careers and employment, and identifies the factors affecting their choice of a career in the Australian Defence Force. Based on a paper presented at the Australian Association of Career Counsellors Conference, April 1995.

Abstract:
The defence of superior orders is not new. However, within Australia, its statutory codification is lamentably underexplored. The 2018 Amendments to Part IIIAAA of the Defence Act 1903 (Cth) provides a neat catalyst to expand the defence and look at possible manners in which it can be constructed. Utilising a theoretical case study of Australian Defence Force members killing a possible terrorist, ‘this article addresses’ the key elements of the defence—what an order is, when can it be constructed as being manifestly unlawful and what does reasonable and necessary force mean for Australian Defence Force members.

Abstract:
Objective: The study investigated the impact of potentially traumatic events on mental health outcomes among males who had ever served in the Australian Defence Force. Method: Data from a nationally representative household survey of Australian residents, the 2007 National Survey of Mental Health and Wellbeing, were used for this study. Results: Compared with community members, Australian Defence Force males were significantly more likely to have experienced not only deployment and other war-like events but also accidents or other unexpected events, and trauma to someone close. For non-deployed males, Australian Defence Force members were at increased risk of accidents or other unexpected events compared to community members. After controlling for the effect of potentially traumatic events that were more prevalent among all Australian Defence Force members, the increased risk of mental disorders among Australian Defence Force members was no longer evident. For non-deployed males, Australian Defence Force and community members were at comparable risk of poor mental health outcomes. A significant minority of Australian Defence Force members had onset of a mental disorder prior to their first deployment. Conclusions: Deployment and other potentially traumatic events among Australian Defence Force members can help to explain their increased vulnerability to mental disorders compared with community members. Providers should routinely enquire about a range of potentially traumatic events among serving and ex-serving military personnel.

Abstract:
International studies indicate a growing problem of intimate partner violence within military families. Despite this, there has been little research into intimate partner violence perpetrated by Australian Defence Force personnel or veterans. A thematic analysis of secondary data was conducted to explore the organisational and social drivers that influence intimate partner violence occurrences by Australian Defence Force personnel, and how the Australian Defence Force enforces its zero-tolerance policy on domestic violence perpetration. Results revealed that the Australian Defence Force and Department of Veteran Affairs made no statements regarding intimate partner violence as a problem for military personnel, despite this study indicating that this population are at a greater risk of perpetration. The Australian Defence Force attributed intimate partner violence causation to ‘abnormal’ individuals or situations. This ignores the culture of hypermasculinity and emphasis on operational effectiveness that was enforced during Australian Defence Force training, and that emerged as a continuous theme throughout the results.

Abstract:
Objective: The risk of suicide in contemporary serving and ex-serving Australian Defence Force personnel is an area of significant concern, driving government-directed inquiries, community campaigns and most recently, the establishment of a permanent National Commissioner for Defence and Veteran Suicide Prevention. This concern is mirrored in international militaries and despite investment in prevention programmes, suicide is a leading cause of death in military populations. This review seeks to summarise recent findings from Australian research regarding the magnitude and factors associated with suicide and suicidality in contemporary serving and ex-serving Australian Defence Force populations and discusses research findings, implications and future opportunities. Methods: Initial review of the prevalence of suicide and suicidality in the general community and military populations is presented, followed by review of recent research findings pertaining to suicides and suicidal thoughts, plans and attempts in contemporary serving and ex-serving Australian Defence Force personnel. Key findings are presented from the 2010 Australian Defence Force Mental Health and Wellbeing Prevalence Study and the 2015 Transition and Wellbeing Research Programme. Results: Differences between serving and ex-serving Australian Defence Force cohorts were observed, with rates of completed suicide in ex-serving Australian Defence Force males more than double that of serving Australian Defence Force males, and increased risk for suicidality observed among those who had recently transitioned out of full-time Australian Defence Force service. Risk for increased suicidality and completed suicide is particularly evident for younger males of lower ranks, and those who have been medically discharged. Conclusions: The findings provide insight into career phases and groups that should be followed-up and targeted for prevention and early intervention programmes, including prior to and several years following transition out of full-time military service. Further research to better understand the factors that influence those who develop suicidal ideation, and those who progress to plans and attempts, will inform a more sophisticated approach to suicide prevention programmes.

Abstract:
This thesis seeks to understand and critically discuss gender inequalities in the Australian Defence Force (ADF) as a barrier to full integration. This is achieved through an exploration of current literature, policy and legal documents, and from the point of view of a sample of ADF women. The purpose of this thesis is to determine whether constructions of gender devalue, exclude and therefore oppress women in the ADF and to determine whether constructions of gender legitimise the subordinate position of female personnel within the ADF. The study locates the ‘voices’, the experiences, and opinions of a group of female ADF personnel in order to hear from the ‘central’ players. The thesis contributes to current debates by: providing a platform for female members of the ADF to relate their experiences and opinions, thereby, giving a voluntary voice to women who are often not heard from in the debates; providing a feminist perspective -which in the Australian context is scant, as Australian feminisms have been reluctant to approach this controversial area; providing a critical perspective that is complementary to in-house research, through conducting the research from a position outside the ADF. The aims of the research are to explore the culture of the ADF, with the purpose of illustrating the underlying causes of barriers to full integration. It aims to understand where unequal treatment arises from, how inequity manifests, how this impacts on women, and how ADF resources are ultimately misused by the excluding of women from certain employments. Coming from a pacifist position I originally wanted to know why women would want to join the ADF, this question was easily answered through the beginning phases of the research. Through the research fieldwork I was led in the direction of focusing on the gendered nature of Defence culture. Government and ADF policy on combat exclusions I found to be a barrier to integration that impact upon career progression in the ADF. The research further revealed a disturbing realisation that Australian women continue to be denied full citizenship rights and responsibilities due to the inequities of restrictions on military service. The research led to the finding that women are excluded from roles in the ADF based on the mythology that women’s service is inferior to that of males. Issues presented in the arguments for cohesion, physical strength, and protectionism are military myths that seek to continue to exclude from positions of leadership, prestige and power in the ADF. Women’s current and potential roles in combat and peacekeeping are presented in the thesis as ultimate case studies revealing how women are denied equal employment rights in the ADF

Abstract:
Australia has faced the growing problem of overweight and obesity along with other developed countries and almost two thirds of Australians are considered to be overweight or obese (Sturgiss, van Weel, Ball, Jansen, & Douglas, 2017). The surrounding environment encouraging excessive food intake and discouraging physical activity is the main cause for the current overweight and obesity epidemic (Velema, Vyth, & Steenhuis, 2017). Studies show that Australian Military personnel are no exception, even though considered as physically fit, they possess poor dietary habits (Booth & Coad, 2001; Forbes-Ewan, Probert, Booth, & Coad, 2008; Skiller, Booth, Coad, & Forbes-Ewan, 2005) and the occurrence of obesity is similar when compared to the general Australian population (Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, 2010). There is a pressing need for effective programs that can accomplish positive behaviour change to decrease the incidence of overweight and obesity in the Australian Defence Force. Social marketing is a discipline that applies commercial marketing techniques and concepts to improve the welfare of individuals and/or society by centring program design on individuals and an understanding of the environment in which they are located (Gordon, 2011). At its core the planning, analysis, execution and evaluation of social marketing programs is designed to influence the behaviour of target audiences (Andreasen, 2003; Lefebvre, 2013; Rundle-Thiele, 2015). In recent years social marketing has been used to increase healthful eating behaviour, mainly among children and adolescents (Keihner et al., 2011; Rosi et al., 2016; Young, Anderson, Beckstrom, Bellows, & Johnson, 2004), with relatively few interventions focusing on targeting young adults (Carins & Rundle-Thiele, 2014b). Andreasen’s (2002) social marketing benchmark criteria offers a useful guide to specify the extent that social marketing is employed within a change intervention and it includes six benchmarks namely behavioural change, formative research, segmentation, the use of marketing mix, exchange and competition. The National Social Marketing Centre (NSMC) extended the benchmark criteria by including eight elements, namely behaviour change, audience orientation, insight, segmentation, exchange, marketing mix, theory and competition (French & Blair- Stevens, 2006). This research includes consumer orientation, insight and healthful eating behaviour and is focussed on segmentation and theory. Segmentation is a process that groups target audiences into somewhat homogenous subgroups, or segments, and handles each segment separately based on the wants, needs and behaviours of the segments (Moss, Kirby, & Donodeo, 2009). Research shows that social marketing is more effective when more of the social marketing benchmarks are used (Carins & Rundle-Thiele, 2014b) and that segmentation is one of the least applied benchmarks (Kubacki, Rundle-Thiele, Lahtinen, & Parkinson, 2015). Segmentation discovers patterns of needs, wants and behaviours among groups within one target population and according to segmentation theory, different strategies should be tailored to each group to extend uptake (Donovan & Henley, 2010). Researchers have found that a better outcome may be produced when a program includes different strategies designed for different segments providing solutions that are more closely aligned to segment needs and wants (Dietrich, Rundle‐Thiele, Leo, & Connor, 2015). Theory offers a structured framework that can guide researchers and practitioners in the development and implementation of social marketing programs. Researchers have found that theory use is essential to accomplish successful programs (Eagle et al., 2013; Lefebvre, 2000). However, research shows that theory use in social marketing is rare (Luca & Suggs, 2013; Truong, 2014; Truong & Dang, 2017) and when theory use is reported its application is mainly weak (Pang, Kubacki, & Rundle-Thiele, 2017; Willmott, Pang, Rundle-Thiele, & Badejo, 2019). This thesis aims to test the replicability of theory-driven segments for healthful eating in young adult samples. This thesis begins by understanding the previously used segmentation bases and how (if at all) theory has been applied in social marketing healthful eating studies. Additionally, this thesis empirically tests the Motivation, Opportunity and Ability (MOA) framework in two young adult healthful eating contexts. More specifically, the aim of this research is to test if theory-driven healthful eating segments emerge from two young adult samples and to understand how each segment identified can be engaged to participate in a healthful eating program. To accomplish the aims of this research, two studies were conducted. Study 1 examined whether unique theory-driven segments emerged from a young adult sample. This study aimed to investigate which segmentation bases have previously been used to inform segment solutions; and apply the MOA framework (Rothschild, 1999) to determine if segments are evident in a young adult population. Post-hoc segmentation was used to establish the number and characteristics of segments with two-step cluster analysis. The findings from Study 1 indicate that the MOA framework can be used to explain healthful eating behaviour and two distinct segments were revealed with education, motivation to eat healthily and the Turconi eating behaviour score being the most important variables in segment formation. This study provides evidence of the value of including behavioural theory in segment formation. Study 2 was an empirical replication study that aimed to investigate to what extent similar healthful eating segments can be derived in two young adult populations. In line with replication principles Study 2 followed procedures applied in Study 1. The same segmentation variables were used to establish the number and characteristics of the segments. The findings from Study 2 indicate that the MOA framework once again explains eating behaviour in the second young adult sample and similar to Study 1 education was the most important variable. While the segment structure is similar to Study 1, differences were clear. Notably, the number of segments increased from two to three. The key outcome of this study is that care should be taken for segment identification given the number of segments differs in two different young adult populations. This research contributes to literature in four ways. First, this thesis identified segmentation bases that have previously been used by social marketers to derive segments and it identifies theories that have previously been used to inform segment solutions. Second, this thesis delivers a clear case study demonstrating that theory-informed segments exist within target populations. Application of a theoretically derived segmentation process can identify groups that have demonstrably different needs, wants and behaviours delivering actionable insights to inform program planning. Third, this thesis demonstrates the importance of generating a segmentation based profile in new young adult target populations given that differences emerge. Finally, this thesis delivers a practical contribution establishing how the segmentation process can be used to understand how each segment can be engaged to participate in a healthful eating program. Limitations and futures research directions are outlined.

Abstract:
The conceptual understanding of security and the practicalities of national defence are interdependent. In many countries both are undergoing significant change. This work provides an international context but focuses on Australian defence, arguing that a transition is underway from old security thinking to new, and that this is evidenced by changes in policies and practical activities. The aim of this work is to demonstrate the interdependence between the current reconceptualisation of security and the practicalities of national defence. Old security thinking concerns military power relationships between states, in contrast with new security thinking, which uses a broader conceptual framework. These are described, providing benchmarks for the subsequent analysis. While it is acknowledged that change has occurred in security thinking throughout history, those developments observed since the end of the Cold War and the rise of globalisation signify a fundamental shift. To explore this shift, recent developments in the defence policies and military activities of four relevant nations are examined, providing an international context for the consideration of the primary case study of Australian defence. This case study draws on historical descriptions and empirical data to analyse developments in four spheres - Australian defence policy, current Australian Defence Force activities, recent military developments and contemporary Australian public debate. The weight of evidence supports the thesis of a transition in both security thinking, described as transitional security thinking, and ADF activities. Tensions are observed between the requirements of defending a nation against attack, and contributing to the expanding requirements of the broadened security agenda. Despite these tensions, the expansion in both security thinking and the associated activities of armed forces, is likely to continue. This expansion has important implications for Australia???s defence capabilities which are increasingly required to meet the demands of refocused national security. These demands contribute to the pressing challenges of convergence and overstretch. A strategy of integration is recommended to address these challenges and it follows the principles of whole-of-government security and sustainable partnerships. The application of these principles will require the ADF to emphasise capabilities with versatility and adaptability.

Abstract:
This thesis traces the stages which led to the establishment of the Australian Defence Force Academy. The origins of the Academy are to be found in the 1950s. The perceived need for highly qualified technical officers to handle the technological demands of the future was complemented by a perception that officers with degree-level education would be better equipped to make decisions and provide strategic advice to government than their less educated counterparts. The emergence of the tri-Service Academy concept is discussed in some detail to highlight the constantly increasing involvement in the proposal by people and organisations from outside the defence community. The struggle between the three Services, eager to retain control over their officers' education, and the Department of Defence with its ambition to rationalise common defence functions, is described. The heated debate over the proposal to establish an armed forces university resulted in the rejection of the proposal by the Parliament Standing Committee on Public Works. The response from the Government and the Department of Defence was a modified proposal, acceptable to most of Casey University's critics, but flawed in its basic structure. Some aspects of the Academy's performance are described and compared to the performance and experiences of the Australian single-Service colleges which preceded it and some comparable overseas institutions. The paper concludes by revisiting some of the proposals presented as alternative models for the Academy during the Public Works Committee hearings in 1978/9. These may well provide a sound basis for the future development of the Australian Defence Force Academy.

Abstract:
This thesis makes an assessment of the factors influencing the involvement of the Australian Defence Organisation (ADO) in homeland security roles since 11 September 2001 (9/11). This is approached on a largely empirical basis, using document analysis and case studies supported with interviews with key individuals and experts. The thesis commences with an Introduction that provides brief context for the thesis and specifies its central question as ???what factors have shaped the role of the ADO in Australia's response to the homeland security environment that has emerged since 11 September 2001.??? Chapter One provides an historical and theoretical context for the key concepts of homeland security and the challenges confronting Western governments in the homeland security arena. Chapter Two explores the implications of those challenges for Australia, before outlining the research method and providing a literature review. Chapter Three is an historical exposition of homeland security in Australia from British settlement in 1788 until 2001. The Chapter examines events in increasing detail in the 30 years immediately prior to 2001, including a detailed case study of ADO support to the Sydney 2000 Olympic and Paralympic Games, before drawing some broad conclusions on the Australian experience of the involvement of its Defence Organisation in homeland security pre-9/11. Chapter Four establishes the pre-9/11 status quo in relation to the ADO???s involvement in homeland security role before analysing the general pattern of those roles. Chapter Five analyses and draws conclusions about the reasons for the ADO???s pre-9/11 involvement in homeland security roles, introducing an hypothetical construct to explain causal factors. Chapter Six examines the ADO???s involvement in homeland security roles post-9/11, including cases studies of ADO support to the conduct of the 2002 Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting and the Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games. Chapter Seven analyses and identifies the factors led to the ADO???s pattern of involvement in homeland security post-9/11, further developing the hypothetical construct introduced in Chapter 5. Chapter Seven also contains supporting case studies on the ADO???s contribution to Australia???s national chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear response capability and on the state of New South Wales??? homeland security capabilities. Chapter Eight draws overall conclusions, including recommendations for Australian policy development and areas for further research. The essential conclusion reached is that the ADO???s involvement in homeland security roles, both before and since 9/11, has been shaped mostly by pragmatic political and managerial considerations of governments. Developments have normally occurred in an episodic and incremental fashion in response to ???trigger events,??? although 9/11 altered this pattern somewhat by acting as a ???threshold??? event that re-calibrated demands and expectations for ADO involvement. Supporting Appendices provide detail on the Australian Government???s strategic guidance on ADO involvement in homeland security since 1973; on Australia???s policy for Defence Assistance to the Civilian Community and Defence Force Aid to the Civil Authorities; and on the involvement of former Department of Defence employees in non-Defence homeland-security related roles.

The maintenance or quick recovery of a collective’s functioning in response to adverse or stressful events resembles the construct resilience. In response to the growing academic and applied attention of collective resilience, there is a need to consolidate current understanding and extend the conceptual knowledge that surrounds team resilience. The overarching purpose of this thesis was to advance conceptual and empirical knowledge of resilience within team and multi-team systems.

Abstract:
AbstractMiddle power Australia has an active defence Artificial Intelligence (AI) program underway with a well-defined innovation pathway and numerous experimentation projects. The Australian Defence Force sees AI mainly being used in human–machine teams to improve efficiency, increase combat power, achieve decision superiority, and lower risks to combat personnel. The major equipment acquisition plan for the next two decades sets out six AI-relevant projects: one navy, one army, three air force and one in the information and cyber domain. Associated with this investment is a high expectation that Australian AI companies will have considerable involvement in the projects. The Australian defence AI sector, though, consists mainly of small and medium-sized companies that may need to partner with large prime contractors to achieve the requisite industrial heft. There are also wider national concerns about whether Australia will have a large enough AI workforce over the next decade to handle both commercial and defence demands. Accordingly, Australia is involved with collaborative AI developments with the United States including the “loyal wingman” fast jet drone, autonomous submarines and surface vessels, and robot land vehicles. Current defence AI plans will most likely lead to evolutionary improvements not revolutionary changes. AI is envisaged as being used to either enhance, augment, or replace existing capability. This approach means the future ADF will do things better, but it won’t necessarily be able to do better things.

Abstract:
In Australia, 6000 military personnel leave the military each year, of whom at least 30% become unemployed and 19% experience underemployment, figures five times higher than the national average (Australian Government 2020). Believed to be one of life's most intense transitions, veterans find it difficult to align their military skills and knowledge to the civilian labour market upon leaving military service (Cable, Cathcart and Almond 2021; AVEC 2020). // Providing authentic opportunities that allow veterans to gain meaningful employment upon (re)entering civilian life raises their capability to incorporate accrued military skills, knowledge, and expertise. Despite acknowledging that higher education is a valuable transition pathway, Australia has no permanently federally funded post-service higher education benefit supporting veterans to improve their civilian employment prospects. Since World War II, American GIs have accessed a higher education scholarship program (tuition fees, an annual book allowance, monthly housing stipend) (Defense 2019). A similar offering is available in Canada, the UK, and Israel. // We are proposing that the AVSP would be the first comprehensive, in-depth study investigating the ongoing academic success of Australia's modern veterans as they study higher and vocational education. It consists of four distinct components: // Scholarships: transitioning/separated veterans apply for one of four higher education scholarship options (under/postgraduate): 100% tuition fees waived // $750/fortnight living stipend for the degree duration // 50/50 tuition/living stipend // Industry-focused scholarships. // Research: LAS Consulting, Open Door, Flinders University, over seven years, will follow the scholarship recipients to identify which scholarship option is the most relevant/beneficial for Australian veterans. The analysis of the resultant quantitative and qualitative data will demonstrate that providing federal financial support to student veterans studying higher education options: Improves the psychosocial and economic outcomes for veterans // Reduces the need for financial and medical support of participants // Reduces the national unemployed and underemployed statistics for veterans // Provides a positive return of investment (ROI) to the funder // May increase Australian Defence Force (ADF) recruitment and retention rates // Career Construction: LAS Consulting will sit, listen, guide, and help build an emotional connection around purpose, identity, education and employment opportunities back into society. So, the veteran can move forward, crystalise a life worth living, and find their authentic self, which is led by their values in the civilian world. // Mentoring: Each participant receives a mentor throughout their academic journey.

Abstract:
In the late 1980s, the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) investigated the use of computer-based technology to improve diagnostic troubleshooting methods. One such technology was demonstrated in an Interactive Fault Diagnosis and Isolation System (IFDIS) that was produced by Competitive Advantage Technology Pty Ltd under direction from the Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO). This paper describes a new design which aims to improve the long-term supportability of such diagnostic systems by making the maximum use of commercial software, producing clear separation of technical information from any software elements, writing all non-standard software using defined standards and generally making the most possible use of the advances in computing over the last ten years. The system is now in field trial with the aim of developing procedures and specifications for production.

Abstract:
In contributing to the body of knowledge for decision-based design, the work reported in this paper has involved steps towards building a hybrid genetic algorithm to address systems design. Highlighted is a work in progress at the Australian Defence Force Academy (ADFA). A genetic algorithm (GA) is proposed to deal with discrete aspects of a design model (e.g., allocation of space to function) and a sequential linear programming (SLP) method for the continuous aspects (e.g., sizing). Our historical Decision Based Design (DBD) tool has been the code DSIDES (Decision Support In the Design of Engineering Systems). The original functionality of DSIDES was to solve linear and non-linear goal programming styled problems using linear programming (LP) and sequential (adaptive) linear programming (SLP/ALP). We seek to enhance DSIDES’s solver capability by the addition of genetic algorithms. We will also develop the appropriate tools to deal with the decomposition and synthesis implied. The foundational paradigm for DSIDES, which remains unchanged, is the Decision Support Problem Technique (DSPT). Through introducing genetic algorithms as solvers in DSIDES, the intention is to improve the likelihood of finding the global minimum (for the formulated model) as well as the ability of dealing more effectively with nonlinear problems which have discrete variables, undifferentiable objective functions or undifferentiable constraints. Using some numerical examples and a practical ship design case study, the proposed GA based method is demonstrated to be better in maintaining diversity of populations, preventing premature convergence, compared with other similar GAs. It also has similar effectiveness in finding the solutions as the original ALP DSIDES solver.

Abstract:
We are living in an era where computers govern the educational process. The market is flooded with puzzles, games, quizzes or other kinds of applications destined to help teachers explain different concepts and to enable students to practice their skills and test the knowledge. For all these systems, be them computers, server or embedded devices, the internet connection is the essential aspect. As a result, we have children and students working with devices that are exposed to the highest degree of security issues and threats. Attacks are continuously evolving, becoming more flexible, adaptable and hard to detect, and leaving children and students vulnerable to malicious software that can either collect sensitive information about them or expose them to inappropriate content. Because of this, it is only natural that security solutions became of significant importance for the tech educational industry. Computers, servers and embedded devices are exposed to the highest degree of security issues and threats since the internet became an essential need. Attacks are continuously evolving, becoming more flexible, adaptable and hard to detect. This made only natural the shift towards adaptive security oriented solutions. One of the security those solutions is represented by anomaly based intrusion detection techniques. Anomaly based intrusion detection systems build a baseline of normal behavior. For a Linux based operating system, which represents a great percent of the platforms used in education, this is accomplished by monitoring a given process or sets of processes. Any significant deviation from the baseline model is flagged as malicious activity. This paper proposes a framework for intrusion detection using system call traces captured from services running on a container. The work done is based on The Australian Defence Force Academy Linux Dataset, more well-known as ADFA-LD. The analysis is done taking into consideration the temporal allocation of the system calls. The classification module is based on supervised machine learning techniques. To test the accuracy of the framework, a case study involving a database application running under a Linux container is analyzed. The results together with the proposed framework implementation are described in details.

Mercer Engineering Research Center (MERC) is supporting Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) in the determination of external airframe loading requirements and test rig design support for an MH-60 full scale fatigue test demonstrator project being conducted in collaboration with the Australian Defence Science and Technology Group (DST Group). The analyses included determination of loads for quasistatic and vibratory flight conditions, sensitivity of the structural response to the loads, displacements at actuators across the MH-60R usage spectrum, and feasibility of driving aircraft vibrations at frequencies lower than those measured in flight - specifically, obtaining vibration levels measured at 17.2 Hz by imposing forces at only 2.15 Hz. The studies also addressed the minimum number and locations of actuators required for static and vibratory loading.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study is to find ways to solve the current problem of improving the military education system. The needs in the formation and development of digital competencies of military management officers in different competence areas were studied: information and data literacy, communication and collaboration, digital content creation, safety and problem solving are studied. Possession of a high level of competence in these areas, according to the authors, significantly affects the professional development of officers during their military careers. The attention is focused on the possibility of implementing transdisciplinary integration in the system of advanced training of officers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The subject of the study, among other things, was the formation of readiness to use STEM-technologies in professional activities. The study reviewed modern STEM-approaches in the educational process and analyzed the experience of countries such as the United States, Australia, China, Britain, Israel, Korea, Singapore. The results of the survey among the students of advanced training courses at The National Defence University of Ukraine named after Ivan Cherniakhovskyi are highlighted. In particular, the attitude and needs of military management officers to training and professional development were clarified; identified their educational interests. In particular, the need for effective ownership of tools for planning and organizing project work, analysis and evaluation of achieved results is identified.
