EXAMPLE OF AN INTEGRATED CONCEPTION USE OF METHODS FOR MONITORING WEAR PARTICLES IN THE LUBRICATION SYSTEM OF AIRCRAFT
Tribotechnical diagnostics as an integrated conception deals with the assessment of lubricants properties, monitoring of behaviour and consequences of the lubricant degradation process during its work in the machine lubrication system. For tribodiagnostic of friction pairs of aircraft engine are used three basic methods dealing with the qualitative and quantitative determination of wear particles, which are in oil of the lubrication system. Concentration of elements was determined by optical emission spectrometry with rotating disc electrode (RD OES) application, categorization of particles by dimension and quantity was performed by method of optical shading. By usage of ferrographic analysis was studied morphology of wear particles. On particular example of monitoring of aircraft engine is typified mode of notice its condition with aim increasing the safety of operation and reduction ecological load by prolongation duration of renewal lubrication system given by manufacturer of device

Changes in perception of gender stereotypes in the Armed Forces of the Slovak Republic
Women’s participation in an ever-widening range of occupations is related to growing
emancipation, their physical and mental fitness, their ability to solve complex problems
based on acquired scientific knowledge, skills, and a strong specific disposition in leading
teams. With their natural empathy, inherent to women – mothers, feelings, responsibility,
and rational thinking, they show that they are rightly given the same opportunities as
their male co-workers. They occupy a wide range of manual work, they are irreplaceable
in services, health care, education, science, parliament, but also the police or the armed
forces. They do business, run multinational companies, fly aircrafts etc. Less than a century
ago, it was rare to see women in the military, and yet women now fight in ground
combat, command air combat, pilot combat aircraft, and oversee medical operations. The
aim of the paper is to evaluate the participation of women in the tasks of the Armed
Forces of the Slovak Republic in terms of gender stereotypes and to identify the possibilities
of full employment of women in the civil service in the reflection of the current military
aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine
HDI index dimensions in the context of hybrid threats
The Human Development Index (HDI index) is considered a summary index of the perception of human well-being in a selected economy. It consists of 3 sub-dimensions: the population's education, health and income. It is considered a vital indicator of the perception of the state of human development, and based on it, countries are compared in the mentioned areas. Our contribution aims to analyze the position of European countries in the context of the HDI index and, at the same time, to apply expanded indicators of education and health. Subsequently, we apply these new, supplemented dimensions in comparing the selected countries and in the context of hybrid h. Within the methodology, we use the methods of agglomerative cluster analysis and paired T-test
Hybrid threats and their impact on the performance of the business environment
The paper aims to assess the impact of hybrid threats on the performance of the business environment of the European Union countries. Hybrid threats were represented by six threats and their consequences, namely unavailability of ICT services due to hardware or software failure, unavailability of ICT services, unavailability of ICT services due to external attack, destruction or corruption of data due to malware infection or unauthorised intrusion, disclosure of confidential data due to intrusion, pharming, phishing attack or deliberate action of own employees, disclosure of confidential data due to negligent action of own employees. The performance of the business environment was assessed through the Country Competitiveness Index. The results showed that our selected threats and their consequences had a statistically significant impact on the performance of the business environment. We observed an adverse effect for unavailability of ICT services due to hardware or software failure, destruction, or corruption of data due to mal-ware infection or unauthorised intrusion, and disclosure of confidential data due to intrusion, pharming, phishing attack, or deliberate actions of own employees. Positive impacts on business environment performance were observed for unavailability of ICT services (insider attack), unavailability of ICT services due to external attacks and disclosure of confidential data due to negligent actions of own employees
The influence of education on the issue of hybrid threats
The contribution is devoted to the issue of hybrid threats in connection with the level of education achieved. Hybrid threats represent coordinated activities by which different interest groups try to influence people in other areas. The research subjects are the respondents divided according to their levels of education. Data for the research were collected through the questionnaire method. The study was based on predetermined hypotheses, subsequently verified by statistical tests. The research was conducted with 157 respondents. The research results reveal that the level of education impacts the knowledge of the concept of hybrid threats. The verified hypothesis confirms this conclusion, the result of which is at the level of value p = 0.0482. The second hypothesis proves the danger of hybrid threats and their relationship with achieved education, calculated at the level of p=0.0334. The research also focused on the area related to information sharing and its subsequent verification. The hypothesis, aimed at verifying information from multiple sources, did not confirm the differences between university-educated respondents and respondents with secondary education. The verified hypothesis represented the value level of p = 0.039. To eliminate hybrid threats, effective and efficient measures would be used to prevent the spread of negative impacts on society. In this context, the hypothesis was established for examining the differences between educational attainment and protection methods against hybrid threats. The result of the verified hypothesis at the level of p = 0.04 confirms the differences between the level of education. It shows that people with higher education consider an effective educational process to protect against misinformation, compared to people with secondary education who favour repressive measures and various forms of control by the government
GENDER INEQUALITIES IN REMUNERATION OF SOCIAL WORKERS – CLUSTERS OF SELECTED EU COUNTRIES.
Gender differences are deeply rooted in history and are also reflected in the social environment and individual social relationships. Based on his physical abilities, a man is perceived as a leader
whereas a woman is naturally understood as being subordinate to her leader. This claim persists in many cultures even in the 21st century and it causes social inequalities. The present research on gender differences is therefore a topical issue, touching on inequality between women and men in workplaces manifested in their unequal remuneration, often discriminatory to women. The present study focuses on the clustering of selected EU countries in relation to a specific indicator that reflects the remuneration reflecting gender inequalities. Since this topic is included in social work,
it needs to be addressed and further explored
Uwarunkowania zrównoważonego rozwoju organizacji
Z wprowadzenia: "Zrównoważony rozwój organizacji, oprócz tworzenia przewag rynkowych,
wymaga obecnie dostrzegania wzajemnego wpływu całego spektrum otoczenia,
szczególnie w aspekcie społecznym. Organizacje odpowiedzialne
dbają o środowisko w którym działają i doceniają pracowników, dzięki czemu
odpowiednio zarządzając ich wiedzą, potrafi ą wprowadzać innowacje
pochodzące nie tylko z zewnątrz, lecz także wypływające z kreatywności
osób w nich zatrudnionych. Wykorzystując specyfikę komunikacji marketingowej nowego pokolenia pracowników i klientów, firmy kładą nacisk
na szkolenia menadżerów oraz zapewniają dogodne warunki pracy, m.in.
matkom dzielącym obowiązki zawodowe z wychowywaniem dzieci. Niniejsza
publikacja stara się przybliżyć czytelnikom, jak umiejętnie wykorzystać
wspominane uwarunkowania w celu przyspieszenia zrównoważonego rozwoju
organizacji."(...
