Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on working conditions and mental well-being of mental health professionals in the Netherlands: a cross-sectional study by Stephanie S Leone, Lea J Jabbarian, Tessa J van Doesum, Laura S Shields-Zeeman, Berno van Meijel, Marja van Bon-Martens

“…Participants expressed significant concern in the focus group discussions about the duration of the pandemic, the high workload, less work-life balance and lack of contact with colleagues. Suggestions to improve working conditions included ensuring clear communication about guidelines and facilitating worker contact and support via peer-to-peer coaching where experiences can be shared.Conclusions The current study indicates that MHP experienced a decline in mental health status during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, which should be taken into consideration by employers, policymakers and researchers.…”

Organization and activities of emergency institutions in Crimea in 1921 in conditions of geopolitical tension by A. V. Ishin

“…Therefore, Western opponents tried as much as possible to use the inertia of the Civil War to destabilize one of the key regions of the RSFSR. Under the current conditions, it was quite logical that a number of leaders of the anti-bolshevik underground wanted to establish close contacts with opponents of Soviet power abroad in order to combine efforts in the fight against it, which objectively became a factor of geopolitical tension in the Soviet Republic in general, and in Crimea in particular. …”

Operation of a wind turbine permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) for ancillary frequency support services by Aras Ghafoor, Judith Apsley, Dlzar Al Kez, Siniša Djurović

“…However, controlled WT over-rating could also be used to deliver additional power in high wind conditions, but remains as of yet unexplored in the context of ancillary service provision. This paper proposes a new enhanced power recovery through overload (EPRO) strategy, combining pitch angle and field weakening controllers for overspeed/overload operation while considering the thermal state of the generator to exploit its thermal rating margin for increased power flow. …”
