Opis:
In order to increase the efficiency of implementing the emergency response measures, the emergency response plan drawing up, revision and implementation at oil production enterprises, it is expedient to use an analogue of the supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system, which generates an interactive mode that allows interaction with the person in charge for localizing and eliminating the consequences of accidents that negatively affect, inter alia, the environmental situation. The SCADA system was developed on the basis of the approved document "Emergency Response Plan" and provides for data exchange with the automated systems of the enterprise to form a complete description of the situation for the person in charge for localizing and eliminating the consequences of accidents. The automated system application software was developed using high-level programming languages (Embarcadero Delphi or analogues) and technologies for direct access to the Oracle database management system. The use of an automated system is feasible for large enterprises of the extractive and processing industries with the possibility of integration into the automated Manufacturing Execution System (MES-systems) of an enterprise.

Opis:
This paper focuses on second language acquisition in the context of social interactions naturally taking place among learners, especially in immersion/Study Abroad settings. We showcase the methodology of social network analysis, which has recently shed new light on the relationship between the individual position in the social network and language acquisition, helping to determine which contexts, intensity and direction of interactions are most conducive to L2 progress. At the time of the current COVID-19 pandemic, physical interactions can pose an epidemiological risk. Thus, we conclude with a discussion concerning the challenge of maximising students’ exposure to the target language in the context of emergency remote learning.

Opis:
The article refers to the class of situations in which abandoning the principle of legalism occurred in connection with the threat to the basic interests of a society and a state. The political history of the United States provides numerous examples of this kind of events. During international armed conflicts involving the US, civil wars or revolutions, the political leaders of this modern constitutional state have often decided to breach the law in order to overcome the danger threatening „the life of the nation”. One of the explanations for this state of affairs was the fact that the constitution of 1787, as distinguished from many other contemporary national constitutions, did not contain detailed solutions for the times of crisis. The activity of American presidents in the area of national security was grounded on expanding interpretations of their competences defined in the Basic Law. One of the theoretical grounds for president’s emergency power doctrine was the theory of prerogative elaborated by John Locke in the late 17th century. The article seeks to provide answer to the following paradox. Why did Locke, despite his involvement in developing the idea of the rule of law, also accept exercising extralegal prerogative powers in cases of emergency? The English philosopher defined the prerogative as „the power to act according to discretion, for the public good, without the prescription of the law, and sometimes even against it”. The idea of extralegal powers has become a recurring motif in the history of the United States’ liberal political culture. Proponents of this vision were convicted that uncertainty, contingency and an unforeseen cases are an inherent features of social and political life, which in many cases elude legal regulation. Recently, the renaissance of Locke’s theory of prerogative has taken place in connection with the war on terrorism, in form of an extralegal measures doctrine.

Opis:
Prediction of hazardous substances dispersion resulting from accidental leakage in environment is essential for risk analysis and emergency response. Different numerical tools are applied for description of dispersion process. Development of numerical algorithms has enabled the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models to be used extensively in indoor dispersion studies. Numerical methods based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) may facilitate the precise investigation of the hazardous substances dispersion. Therefore, the aim of the study was to prepare a transient CFD model describing the phenomena of chlorine dispersion in a dynamic setup including different environmental factors. Reliable computational description of dispersion process still represents one of the most challenging applications. Therefore, we aimed to prepare a transient 2D and 3D numerical models of chlorine dispersion from a ground source in a dynamic setup. For 2D simulation a Degadis model was used, while for 3D approach a multiphase Volume of Fluid model (VOF) was applied. For both analyzed cases area of investigation was equal to 0.1 km2. Furthermore, for 3D simulations height was equal to 50 m. For the reconstruction of atmospheric conditions Pasquill stability classes and one-direction wind were applied. Analysis of chlorine concentration in function of wind intensity indicated extension of chlorine cloud with decrease of concentration. Moreover, comparison of constant and dynamic setup indicated high impact of wind. In case of windless conditions circular profile of chlorine concentration around dispersion source was noticed. Wind directed the chloride cloud which dispersed accordingly to the wind direction. As expected chloride concentration decreased with altitude. 2D model allowed prediction of polluted cloud in horizontal direction, while 3D model allowed description of horizontal and vertical distribution of chlorine. It was observed that with increase of Pasquill stability class the area of chlorine dispersion had similar character for horizontal model as well as for horizontal and vertical model (3D). For the windless case circular profile of chlorine concentration around dispersion source was observed. Additionally, for the wind application the main chlorine concentration moved ahead the source of dispersion. Analysis of chlorine concentration in function of height resulted in decrease of chlorine appearance in upper level of mathematical domain.
Predykcja dyspersji substancji niebezpiecznych z przypadkowych wycieków jest niezbędna w analizie ryzyka. W tym celu do opisu procesu dyspersji stosowane są różne numeryczne narzędzia. Rozwój matematycznych algorytmów umożliwia stosowanie m.in. techniki CFD na szeroką skalę. Tym samym celem niniejszej pracy było opracowanie dwuwymiarowego i trójwymiarowego modelu opisującego zjawisko dyspersji chloru z naziemnego źródła. Dla dwuwymiarowego podejścia zastosowano model Degadisa. Natomiast dla trójwymiarowego podejścia wielofazowy model VOF. Dla obu przypadków powierzchnia analizowanego obszaru wynosiła 0.1 km2. Co więcej, dla trójwymiarowego podejścia wysokość analizowanej domeny obliczeniowej wynosiła 50 m. W celu rekonstrukcji parametrów atmosferycznych uwzględniono klasy stabilności Pasquilla oraz wpływ wiatru. Dwuwymiarowy model umożliwiał analizę procesu dyspersji w płaszczyźnie poziomej, podczas gdy model trójwymiarowy umożliwiał analizę zarówno w płaszczyźnie poziomej jak i pionowej. Analiza obu modeli wskazuje, iż wzrost intensywności wiatru wydłuża zasięg chmury chloru, z jednoczesnym spadkiem jego stężenia. Co więcej, w przypadku nieuwzględnienia przepływu wiatru obserwowano kołowy profil stężenia chloru dookoła źródła dyspersji. Natomiast przepływający wiatr powodował zmniejszenie koncentracji chloru wraz z wysokością. Również zaobserwowano, iż uwzględnienie klas stabilności Pasquilla miało porównywalny efekt w przypadku podejścia dwuwymiarowego i trójwymiarowego. Uwzględnienie wiatru powodowało przemieszczenie maksymalnej wartości stężenia chloru znad źródła dyspersji. Co więcej, analiza stężenia chloru w funkcji wysokości wskazuje na zmniejszenie zawartości chloru w górnej części domeny matematycznej.

Opis:
The objective of this paper is to highlight the needs for improved access to high quality maritime data and information in the Arctic, and the need to develop maritime communication infrastructure with at least the same quality, in terms of availability and integrity, as in other more centralized areas. The foreseen Arctic ice meltdown is expected to provide new maritime transport corridors within relatively short time, and there is an urgent need to prepare for this, to ensure safe operations at sea and to protect the vulnerable Arctic environment. This paper points out some of these needs by presenting a case from a former accident in the Arctic sea. The case shows how the lack of proper information and data complicates the emergency operation. Some possible solutions to the challenges are proposed, and finally the paper briefly discusses the IMO e-Navigation concept in light of the Arctic challenges.

Opis:
The NATO process of civil emergency planning (CEP) is a tool that allows the Allied forces to extend their logistic support capabilities in crisis periods and on a war footing. The civil logistic infrastructure is a “backbone” of national logistic systems. The Allies’ strategic concept has increased reliance on general civil resources and transportation assets to meet military requirements for strategic and operational mobility and sustain operational forces. The following study presents a conceptual model for evaluating the logistic capabilities of land intermodal terminals, discussed in the example of Poland, using methods implemented in management and quality sciences. The results can help configure logistic transport chains and evaluate capabilities to provide logistic services to potential recipients during crises and war. Intermodal transport is a typical service implemented by sea-land transport chains, where land facilities serve as essential elements. Therefore, land intermodal terminals play a crucial role in the state’s logistic system and logistic support when a crisis or a conflict is in progress. It is mainly applied to support national and allied forces in the joint operations area.

The paper describes the development of a comprehensive decision logic for selection and use of biological and chemical protective clothing (BCPC). The decision logic recognizes the separate areas of BCPC use among emergency, biological, and chemical hazards. The proposed decision logic provides a system for type classifying BCPC in terms of its compliance with existing standards (for emergency applications), the overall clothing integrity, and the material barrier performance. Type classification is offered for garments, gloves, footwear, and eye/face protection devices. On the basis of multiple, but simply designed flowcharts, the type of BCPC appropriate for specific biological and chemical hazards can be selected. The decision logic also provides supplemental considerations for choosing appropriate BCPC features.

The complete obstruction of a large artery, including the aorta, is a serious event which, as a general rule, has devastating effects. Sometimes symptoms may be ambiguous and the diagnosis may not be immediate. Prompt recognition of this condition provides the only hope of survival from this rare and catastrophic disease. A 52-year-old man was well until an episode of sudden low back pain and paresis of the legs resulted in admission to the Emergency Department (ED). The entire process of management, from admission to ED until the end of surgical operation, took about 4 hours. After 4 days the patient was discharged, in good clinical conditions. This case report highlights the importance of rapid management of this rare clinical condition for optimal outcome. Early diagnosis is essential for effective treatment.

The article concerns the opinion on stationary and remote examinations carried out during a pandemic, perceived from the perspective of examiners. The aim of the study was to find out about the perspective of academic teachers on remote examination at The Maria Grzegorzewska University and to compare it with the traditional, stationary exams. The subject of the research were, inter alia, the forms of checking knowledge and skills used by lecturers, the motivations driving their choice, problems arising during the exams, as well as the way of taking into account the special needs of the examinees. The research used the method of diagnostic survey. The obtained results indicate that, according to the lecturers, the students' independence during remote exams is smaller and the intensity of using unauthorized help by them is greater. Remote exams generate more problems - technical and related to the dishonesty of students. Lecturers hardly recognize and take into account the special educational needs of students during remote exams.

Opis:
Given the incidence and severity of acute intoxication, this issue is of considerable importance today for the Emergency Departments (ED). The objective of this study was to evaluate acute intoxications by psychopharmacological medications and abuse of drugs for patients managed in an Outpatient Emergency Department. Retrospective analyses were performed on data on admissions to the Emergency Department for the years 2012 and 2013, in Holy Trinity Hospital, Cagliari, Italy; the reference population were outpatients with intoxication reported as the main problem, taken from a total population of utpatients with every kind of medical problem admitted to the ED during the studied period. The sample included patients of all ages with acute intoxication by psychopharmacological medications and drugs of abuse (psychoactive drugs and alcohol). For the year 2012, the number of total Emergency Room (ER) visits because of intoxication amounted to 338 and 243 of these were due to the abuse of drugs (72%), representing 0.72% of the total number of ER outpatients visits (n=33823). For the year 2013, this percentage increased reporting 287 outpatients for intoxication by drugs of abuse (79% of those admitted because of intoxication, n=362), representing 0.83% of the total number of ER outpatients visits (n=34,476). If we consider jointly outpatients with intoxication because of drug abuse for the two years (n=530), the descriptive analysis shows that: 56.0% are male and 44.0% females. Yellow as priority code had been assigned in 67.7% cases and red in 9.2% cases (χ2=10.053, df=3, p=0.018). Patients with a diagnosis of psychiatric illness were 40.8%; with diagnosis of drug addiction 18.5%, 10.9% alcoholism, drug addiction and alcoholism 2.6%; psychiatric condition associated with drug addiction and/or alcoholism 4.5% (χ2=85.697, df=7, p<0.001). The drugs taken were: psychopharmacological medications 46.2%; alcohol 22.6%; mixed drugs and alcohol abuse 13.7% (χ2=104.870, df=8, p<0.001). This study showed that there is a high level of comorbidity between psychiatric disease (Bipolar Disorders: 28.7%, Unipolar Mood Disorders: 48.6%, Psychosis: 9.3%, Anxiety Disorders: 10.2%) [1] and acute intoxication in patients who are admitted to an Emergency Department; this data, which show an increase of admissions of such patients during the examined period prove the necessity to reflect on the importance of an appropriate management of this patient population.
