Рrospects for the development of retreat tourism in Ukraine by Irina Shamara, Hanna Haponenko, Olena Yevtushenko, Tymur Vygovskyi

“…In order to get more and more satisfaction from life, people began to turn more and more often to various types of self-knowledge, using not only scientific methods. Thus, a phenomenon has appeared in society that has become to some extent a "spiritual" trend and is the root of all world spiritual and physical practices, which includes various types of meditation - this is "retreat tourism", which implies a combination of various spiritual and physical practices in places remote from society, as a rule, where means of communication are not used. …”

Localization of rust resistance genes in old local Russian flaxes by methods of classical genetics by S. N. Kutuzova, E. A. Porokhovinova, N. B. Brutch, A. V. Pavlov

“…Flax rust, a disease  that  destroyed a significant portion  of the yield before  the creation  of resistant varieties, is currently defeated, but it can cause new outbreaks as identical resistance genes  are used in breeding. Since only one of the allelic genes  can be introduced into a variety, the aim of this work is to identify genes  for resistance to the disease  in lines selected during  the evaluation of old Russian flaxes from the VIR collection. …”

Vibration Signal Analysis of Water Seal Blasting Based on Wavelet Threshold Denoising and HHT Transformation by Jiang-chao Liu, Wen-xue Gao

“…The blasting vibration signal energy of the water interval charge at both ends is mainly concentrated in components IMF2 to IMF5, and the corresponding frequencies are concentrated at 6 Hz to 11 Hz and 20 Hz to 70 Hz, while the blasting vibration signal energy of other three charge structures is mainly distributed in components IMF2 to IMF4, corresponding frequencies are concentrated within 20 Hz to 70 Hz, and the distribution at low frequencies is not obvious. Therefore, when using the water interval charge at both ends, it is necessary to increase the main vibration frequency of the original vibration signals by reducing the single section charge and using frequency shift technology to avoid the natural frequency of the structure and reduce resonance-induced damage.…”
