ARMED CONFLICT

Armed conflict - this is an open contradiction between medium and large social groups, in which the subjects use armed formations. Armed conflicts differ in the content and scale of goals, the use of means to achieve them, and the territorial space of the military conflict.

Types of armed conflict by goals:

1) fair (determined by the UN Charter and other international rules of law);

2) unfair.

According to the occupied territory of action, an armed conflict happens: local; regional; large scale.

Local wars are defined by territorial boundaries and have clearly established and limited goals. A local war can develop into a regional one. The latter pursues more important military-political goals; military formations of other states may participate. At the stage of escalation of an armed regional conflict, there is a possibility of transition to a large-scale armed conflict.

A large-scale armed conflict requires the mobilization of all the forces of the participants in the conflict, since the goals set are cardinal in terms of the changes achieved in society.

The following forms of armed conflict are distinguished: an armed incident, an armed action, any form of armed struggle limited in scope.

Specificity and signs of armed conflict

1. High probability of vulnerability of the population in whose territory an armed conflict unfolds.

2. The involvement of new participants in the course of the conflict.

3. Armed formations are slow and irregular.

4. Moral and mental stress.

5. Expenditure of forces and resources not only on the conduct of the conflict, but also on ensuring security, movement and location of the actors in the conflict (troops).

6. High danger of transformation into an international or civil war.

Despite the existence in the modern world of many legal conventions on the preservation of peaceful coexistence and the prevention of armed formations, the objective situation with regard to armed conflicts is negative. As a rule, problems here arise in connection with the numerous victims of people not participating in the armed conflict - civilians. Sometimes in connection with the armed conflict there is an illegal involvement of outsiders for the purpose of exploitation and additional physical forces. Children and women are especially vulnerable in this case.

The consequences of armed conflicts have a negative impact on the entire infrastructure of the social, political and economic life of society.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Mini air conditioner Sony Reon Pocket 5 09.05.2024

Summer is a time for relaxation and travel, but often the heat can turn this time into an unbearable torment.

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Flying racing electric car Alauda Airspeeder Mk3 27.06.2021

The electric flying race car has flown for the first time in Australia, in preparation for a series of remotely piloted aircraft races later this year. A four-meter multicopter Alauda Airspeeder Mk3 made its first unmanned test flight in the desert of South Australia.

With a weight of 130 kg, the aircraft has a specific thrust that exceeds that of some modern fighters. Alauda Aeronautics founder Matthew Pearson said the test vehicle will be raced in Formula One style, with up to ten similar aircraft in each "race". Three such races are planned for 1, the date and location of which have not yet been announced. Depending on the terrain, flying electric vehicles will travel at speeds of 2021 to 150 km/h, Pearson said.

There is a place for a pilot in the cockpit of the vehicle, but at the moment the control takes place remotely: a robot sits in the cockpit, connected to the pilot on the ground. The mechanism duplicates all the actions of the pilot, as if he himself controls the aircraft. In the event remote-controlled racing goes off without incident, the company hopes to allow people to fly in the future. It is worth noting that, in order to avoid collisions in the air, Alauda Airspeeder Mk3 is equipped with LiDAR sensors and a radar system.

The vehicle is powered by a lithium-polymer battery, the charge of which is enough for 15 minutes of flight. Each race will last 45 minutes, requiring two pit stops to change the battery, which takes about 20 seconds.

Pearson expressed his hope that the Airspeed EXA series will improve the safety of flying vehicles. Many analysts and scientists see great promise in compact flying electric vehicles. It is expected that in the not too distant future, compact air transport will be used for the delivery of goods, and later for passenger transportation.
