The present article concerns civilian military education in secondary schools in Poland. The article presents the results of the author's own pilot studies on the axiological aspect of the functioning of military classes in secondary schools in Poland. The objective of the article is to specify the characteristics of the axiological aspects of the functioning of students of military classes based on an analysis of the results of the author's own studies, with particular focus on the interests, dimensions of development of personality traits, and the objectives of the respondents. The research method that was used was a diagnostic survey, the technique was a poll, and the research tool was a questionnaire. After a short description of the origins of military classes and of the research methods used, the authors analyse the axiological dimension of the functioning of the respondents: their interests, the directions of development of their personality traits, and their objectives. The conclusion contains answers to the research problems and a comparison of the values of the students of military classes to the values shared by young persons determined in contemporary studies in Poland.

This paper introduces a robust method for vibration-based damage assessment, which is based on a mathematical relation contrived by the authors that involves the frequency shifts, the damage size and position. Databases containing damage indicators for all possible damage scenarios, for three types of beams, were developed by involving this mathematical relation. The proposed damage indicator is expressed using the relative frequency shifts. The damage location and severity can be assessed if the relative frequency shifts are derived from measurements at the initial state and periodically afterwards. The paper investigates the effectiveness of several dissimilarity estimators, to find damage involving frequencies measured without and in the presence of noise.

In this paper we analyzed the liquidity of the companies, the plans for the future cash flows and questions related to the new law regarding the financial discipline. Main questions addressed here are the number of difficulties related to the sources of financing the current and the developing activities of the companies in Macedonia. The analysis is undertaken by using statistical techniques and models. The results suggest that in the post-crisis period the companies are facing with number of difficulties of providing financial resources for the current and the developing activities where the most significant source of finance are the bank credits. Also, the results suggest that delayed payment of claims, the legislative and the high level of interest rate are the most common factors that restrict the access to finance of the Macedonian companies.

This article explores the newly discovered account books of the Lviv Uniate Musical Chapel of the Bishop Leon Szeptycki. The main stay of this musical chapel was the architectural complex of the Cathedral of St George in Lviv. Today, two account books are stored in the department of old books and manuscripts of the Andrey Sheptytsky National Museum in Lviv in the archives of the Lviv bishops; they cover the years 1760–1779. In the first two parts of the article, the author investigates the issues of the founding of the musical chapel and its place of activity. In the third part, there is a list of musicians who were members of this chapel over the years. In addition to the names and surnames, their positions, years of employment, musical instruments which they played and details of their biography are indicated. In the next part, there is a list of pupils of the chapel. It appears that the total number of pupils ranged from 2 to 14. Adult musicians and pupils played various instruments: harpsichord (“klawicymbaly”), clavichord (“klawikort”), organ, violin, alto, viola da gamba (“kwartviola”), cello (“basetla”), oboe, bassoon, trumpet and horn; there were singers as well. In the fifth part, the author specifies in what way the Lviv Uniate musical chapel was financed. In the next part, both the church and the secular musical repertoire of the musical chapel are described. In this section, also information from the Warsaw periodicals are used. In the seventh part, the collaboration of the Uniate music chapel with other chapels and monastic orders, Jesuits, Dominicans and Conventual Franciscans is explored. In the last part, the author examines the information about the human settlements that are found on the pages of the account books.

Within the framework of the project of the Archaeological Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Genetics of the Szeged Biology Centre, titled “Archaeogenetics in the research on the ethnogenesis of the Hungarians”, a number of tenth-century cemeteries, incompletely investigated in the 20th century, have been re-investigated. In September 2002, a new excavation was carried out by Péter Langó and Attila Türk at the site of “Derékegyházi oldal, Berényi B. 129. tanya földje” southeast of Szentes, in the Great Hungarian Plain, originally investigated by Gábor Csallány in 1940 (Fig. 1.1–2). During the successful identification of the site four new 10th-century graves were found, which complete the cemetery (Fig. 2.1). The graves of eight buried individuals were oriented to west-northwest and were placed roughly in a row. Based on the grave-goods, the burials can be dated to the mid-third or second half of the 10th century AD, which was confirmed by radiocarbon dating as well.

The purely introspective philosophy, based on reasoning and that from centuries has analysed the mental activity of man needs the scientific research of brain, the only real method of objective investigation of the mental processes. I called this association ‘neurophilosophy’. In this paper, the cerebral processes involved in the knowledge of truth are described: he phenomenal analysis, the epistemic one, processes as thinking, judgement and consciousness.

EVER SINCE THE FIRST MODELS APPEARED, THE HELICOPTER HAS REPRESENTED AND WILL BE A SOLID SUBJECT OF STUDY, ALWAYS BEING A PLACE OF IMPROVEMENT IN ITS TECHNOLOGY WITH THE EVOLUTION OF SCIENCE. IN THIS PAPER I WILL PRESENT SOME IDEAS REGARDING THE AERODYNAMIC PERFORMANCES OF THE BEARING ROTORS, USING NUMERICAL SOFTWARE SIMULATIONS BASED ON A SCALE MODEL OF THE SA 316B HELICOPTER.

MODERN HELICOPTERS HAVE SEEN A SUBSTANTIAL IMPROVEMENT OVER THE YEARS. MISSIONS OF ALL TYPES WERE ASSIGNED AND THE NECESSITY OF HELICOPTERS RAISED, SO THOSE NEED TO BE AS PERFORMANT AS IT CAN. THE SIKORSKY UH-60 BLACK HAWK IS A VERY GOOD EXAMPLE OF MULTIROLE HELICOPTER USED BY A LOT OF COUNTRIES ALL OVER THE WORLD. THIS PAPER ILLUSTRATES 3D SIMULATIONS OF SEVERAL VARIANTS FOR THE MAIN ROTOR BLADES BY EXPOSING PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS USING A SOFTWARE TOOL ON AN EQUIVALENT MODEL
