Seismic response and damage model analysis of rocky slopes with weak interlayers by Zhao Yawen, Dong Jinyu, Liu Handong, Wang Chuang

“…The dynamic failure mode energy damage identification method is analyzed using the Hilbert–Huang transformation and marginal spectrum theory. The result shows that the weak interlayer under horizontal loading amplifies the 5–10 and 25–30 Hz frequency signal and attenuates the 15–20 Hz signal. …”

Subject matter of proof and peculiarities of collecting evidence in the investigation of crimes committed against the law enforcement officers by O. O. Sharova-Aidaieva

“…An important aspect of conducting an effective and objective pre-trial investigation of this type of crime is to ensure that these crimes are proved, with the main burden of proof being placed on the prosecution. Given that in the theory of national legal science the subject matter of proof and peculiarities of evidence collection in the course of investigation of crimes the victims of which are law enforcement officers have so far remained outside the scope of substantive study by scholars, clarification of certain aspects of this issue has been chosen as the purpose of the study. …”
