Vol. 4 No. 2 (2025): Challenges and Issues of Modern Science

Challenges and Issues of Modern Science is an interdisciplinary academic journal that publishes original research dedicated to technological advancement and cross-sectoral scientific progress. The journal covers all stages of the life cycle of new products in mechanical engineering, applied mechanics, materials science, aerospace engineering, electrical and power engineering, and electronics — from conceptual design and modelling to realization, operation, and end-of-life strategies. Emphasis is placed on improving manufacturing processes, ensuring product quality and resilience, and addressing contemporary production challenges, while taking into account environmental considerations, economic and managerial factors, and market-driven strategies.

The journal serves as a platform for knowledge exchange among scientists and practitioners working at the intersection of engineering, digital technologies, and systems thinking. Contributions are encouraged that integrate developments in information technology, cybersecurity, automation, robotics, artificial intelligence, sustainable development, and — as introduced in this issue — market synergy. Through theoretical and applied studies, the journal contributes to understanding emerging challenges and shaping progressive responses across interconnected scientific fields.

This issue is published in accordance with the 2025 Plan of Scientific Publications of Oles Honchar Dnipro National University, approved by the University Academic Council (Minutes No. 5 dated December 19, 2024).
