Authors: Belov M. V. , Rassamakhin S. V.
Published: September 2020

Relevance. An increase in the number of revisions is an inevitable consequence of the growth of primary arthroplasty number. The imperfection of implants and the lag in patient’s seeking medical help significantly increase the number of complex revisions. Extensive bone defects after removal of an unstable implant urge us to think about the better methods of these defects compensation and implants fixation. The purpose — was to assess the modern telemedicine opportunities for improving the preoperative planning of the complex revision arthroplasties. Materials and Methods. The study comprised 13 patients undergone revisions for implant instability in a regional orthopedic department using telemedicine differed advices including 11 hip and 2 knee arthroplasties. All patients had extensive bone defects. Results. In 12 cases, the surgeries were performed according to the recommendations from the expers of the Vreden National Medical Research Center of Traumatology and Orthopedics, St. Petersburg, Russian Federation. In one case, an individual system had been proposed as the main choice, but the preoperative plan was changed in favor of standard revision components. The short-term results of the surgeries were assessed as satisfactory. Conclusion. The use of modern information technologies for preoperative planning makes it possible to more accurately determine the indications for choosing implants. In particularly difficult cases, it becomes necessary to use individual implants. The right final choice depends on high-quality preoperative planning and effective interaction among medical hospitals of various levels.

Relevance. Acromezomelic dysplasia Maroteaux type (AMDM) is a rare variant of autosomal recessive skeletal disorder. The disease is caused by mutations in the NPR2 gene, coding the protein product which is one of the main regulators of endochondral ossification. To date, 49 mutations in this gene have been identified, more than half of which are missense substitutions. The presence of polymorphism of phenotypic manifestations makes it necessary to describe the features of clinical and radiological characteristics of the disease in patients with newly identified mutations in the gene, which will help to optimize its diagnosis. Case presentation. The clinical and radiological characteristics of two siblings with newly identified mutations c.125_126insTGGCG (p.Trp42CysfsTer12) and (p.Arg767Ter) in the NPR2 gene are described. Intra-family polymorphism of clinical manifestations is shown. Discussion. Clinical manifestations and radiological data in two siblings with AMDM caused by new mutations in the NPR2 gene and analysis of the literature data allowed us to conclude that there is no correlation of the severity of clinical signs and the type of mutations in the gene. Patients are born with normal growth and weight, and clinical manifestations (disproportionate dwarfism) appeared during the first year of life. The main radiological signs are shortening of tubular bones, most pronounced in the upper limbs and wedge-shaped formation of the vertebral bodies. Genotype-phenotype correlations confirmed the hypothesis that the majority of mutations leading to the disease is localized within the ligand-binding and guanylate cyclase domains. Conclusion. The obvious genetic heterogeneity, the similarity of the clinical manifestations of individual nosological groups of skeletal dysplasias, as well as the presence of intrafamily and interfamily polymorphism of clinical manifestations allows us to consider sequencing of a clinical exome or whole exome as the optimal method for diagnosing this group of diseases.
Femoroacetabular Impingement: A Natural History
Authors: Sereda A. P.
Published: September 2020

This review article is devoted to the natural course of hip femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). The evolution of the understanding and views of surgeons on primary (idiopathic) arthrosis are considered. It is noted that nowadays, the primary arthrosis in fact almost always arises from anatomical variations. Among those are cam- and pincer-deformities, leading to impingement. In most of the major works, a reliable causal relationship of cam-FAI with arthrosis has been proven. Moreover, cam-FAI also carries the risk of impending arthroplasty. The association of pincer-FAI with arthrosis has been controversial. The course of FAI arthrosis, most likely, is not as aggressive as, for example, dysplastic arthrosis, and less often requires arthroplastics. Since cam-FAI is a reliable risk factor for arthrosis and arthroplasty, it could be assumed that timely surgical correction of FAI would stop or slow down arthrosis and avoid arthroplasty. However, at present, this assumption has not been proven, therefore, there is no reason to assert that surgery for FAI in any way affects its natural history in the form of severe arthrosis following by arthroplasty.

The Effects of Using Ground Cockle Seashells as an Additive for Mortar in Peat Environment
Authors: Olivia Monita , Rahmayani Ismi Siska , Wibisono Gunawan , Saputra Edy
Published: September 2020

Seashells are available abundantly in coastal areas and have the potential to be used as aggregates and replacement for cement in mortar and concrete. They are also applied as mineral additives for mortar or concrete to increase the resistance of these materials in an aggressive environment, especially in constructing structures such as drainage and sewer networks which require good resistance to organic acid attack. This paper discusses the potential addition of ground seashells to improve the performance of mortar used as a drainage lining in an acidic environment such as peatland. The mix was designed using a 4% ground cockle shell (Anadara granosa) by cement weight as an additive in two mixes which include Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) and OPC Cockle Shell (OPCCS). The samples were cured in a water pond for 28 days before they were placed in water and peat water for 120 days after which the compressive strength, porosity, sorptivity, change in weight, and visual characteristics were investigated. The results showed the compressive strength of OPCCS mortar increased by 11.29% after immersion in peat water for 120 days with its porosity and sorptivity decreased by 5.78% and 31.07% due to the refinement of the pores and capillary network in the mortar. Moreover, the weight of the brushed and unbrushed OPCCS mortar in peat water was lesser compared to the OPC due to the increase in CaO content which has the ability to fill the pores and reduce disintegration. The visual examination showed an improvement in the pH of OPCCS mortar due to the ability of the ground cockle shells to neutralize the acidity of the peat water. This study, therefore, shows the use of ground cockle shells as an additive makes it possible to use mortar as a drainage lining because the shells provide excellent resistance to acidic peat environments.

Published: September 2020

Bengkulu City is one of the areas vulnerable to earthquakes in Indonesia and several studies have shown the city experienced a unique phenomenon called liquefaction during the Mw 8.6 Bengkulu-Mentawai Earthquake. This event has initiated a step by step intensive study on earthquake in the area but previous studies are generally limited by the use of site investigation data to empirically analyse liquefaction potential and those that used advance method such as the seismic wave propagation model are rare. This means the level of liquefaction damage in the study area is not totally understood, therefore, this research focused on implementing the ground response analysis to quantify the Liquefaction Potential Index (LPI) using several areas in Bengkulu City in order to determine their vulnerability. The process involved the collection of several site investigation data including boring log and shear wave velocity profile as well as a desk study to determine the geological condition of the observed sites. Moreover, a non-linear seismic ground response analysis was conducted to obtain maximum ground surface acceleration (amax) parameter which was further used to analyse the liquefaction potential in the study area. The results showed several sites have the potential to experience liquefaction during earthquakes. The method applied was considered successful and the results are expected to be implemented for city development. Furthermore, the framework is recommended for adoption in investigating the liquefaction in other areas.

Published: September 2020

The importation of corn seeds may inadvertently introduce seed-borne fungi like Aspergillus niger. One potential method to control this pathogen was fumigation with sulfuryl fluoride. The objectives of this applied research were to obtain effective concentration and exposure time of sulfuryl flouride as a fumigant to control seedborne fungi and to its physiological impact on corn seeds. Aspergillus niger was isolated from corn seed samples, grew it in potato dextrose agar, and used it for in vitro studies. Parameters  observed were isolates’ growth inhibition. In vivo studies were conducted using corn seed samples infected by Aspergillus niger. Sulfuryl fluoride was applied at the concentration of 30, 40, 50, and 60 g/m3 and 24, 48, 72, and 96 hour of exposure time. Results showed that sulfuryl fluoride concentration of 40 g/m3 for 48 hours at 26-32°C is the only effective concentration against A. niger in vitro but all of the treatment did not significantly affect A. niger in vivo. Concentration of 30, 40, 50, 60 g/m3 for 24 hours does not affect the quality of the seed.

"Upsus" (Special Efforts) Program is a program to increase crop production and productivity to support the acceleration of food self-sufficiency held by the government. The targets are to increase the planting index (IP) by 0.5 and productivity by 0.3 ton/ha/Harvested Dry Grain (HDG). Increased productivity has not been reached optimally. This research aimed to determine the number/types of the dominant pests and natural enemies, and pests and diseases attack rates in the wetland rice plantation "Upsus" Program in Karawang District. Direct observation was carried out on four stages of plant development, in the nursery stage (10–14 days after sowing) 200–300 m², seedlings stage (10–20 days after planting), vegetative stage (5–6 weeks after planting), and reproductive stage (1–2 weeks after flowering) respectively within an area of 2000 m². Twenty samples were observed in the nursery stage and 50 samples in the following stages. The dominant pests and diseases found were Nilaparvata lugens, Leptocarisa oratorius, Schirpophaga incertulas, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis, Scotinophara coarctata, Mythimna separata, bacterial leaf blight (Xanthomonas. oryzae pv. oryzae), blast (Pyricularia grisea) and narrow brown spot (Cercospora oryzae). The recorded dominant natural enemies were Cyrtorhinus sp., Paederus sp., Tetragnatha sp., and Pardosa pseudoannulata. S. incertulas showed the highest attack intensity and the highest disease severity was found in bacterial leaf blight. The largest population of dominant pests and natural enemies was found in the generative stage. The high application of pesticides affected the population of pests, natural enemies, and the level of pest and disease attacks.

Published: September 2020

Enterococcus spp. are remarkable multidrug resistant (MDR) bacteria that are causing serious healthcare-associated infections. The current study investigated the frequency of Enterococcus spp., antimicrobial susceptibility, biofilm formation and the presence of some plasmid-mediated virulence characters and antimicrobial resistance determinants in enterococcal isolates from Egyptian hospitals in Cairo. Enterococcus bacterial isolates were recovered from different clinical specimens and identified using biochemical testing and KB005A HiStrep™ identification kit. Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method and/or broth microdilution method were used to determine the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns. Phenotypic assays were performed to study biofilm formation and cytolysin and gelatinase production. PCR assays targeting the plasmid-carried genes aac(6’)-aph(2’), aph(3)-IIIa, vanA, agg and cylA were performed. In this study, 50 isolates of diverse Enterococcus spp. were identified with E. faecium was the most frequently isolated one. High resistance profiles were determined against tested antimicrobials and all isolates were MDR. Moderate biofilm formation was detected in 20% of isolates, 18% showed complete blood hemolysis and 12% produced gelatinase. All isolates carried the tested aminoglycosides resistance genes, while vanA was found only in 4 isolates (8%). The virulence genes agg and cylA were detected in 4% and 32% of isolates, respectively. In conclusion, E. faecium was the most prevalent species. The entire isolates set were MDR and the plasmid-carried aminoglycoside resistance genes were extensively disseminated among MDR isolates. Thus, regular surveillance studies, from the area of study or other geographical regions in Egypt, and strict infection control measures are required to monitor the emerging MDR enterococci.

Published: September 2020

Environmental factors such as temperature and humidity directly affect the growth and fruit bodies of fungi. We studied the diversity of wood decaying fungal species, which have grown on same substrate in forest as well as laboratory environment. Ten specimens of fruit body of wood-decaying fungi and 24 random pieces of coarse wooden debris were collected from the forest of northwest Arkansas. The samples of coarse woody debris were incubated in laboratory-growth chambers for two months to promote the fungal growth. Fourty-two different species of wood-decay fungal isolates were recovered and identified by internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region sequencing. The isolates from the forest belonged to twenty-two different taxa whereas twenty taxonomic groups were reported from the growth compartments. Remarkably, data observed from two sets did not shared any taxon. These results indicated that environmental growth conditions play crucial role on fungal diversity even if grown on same substrates.

Biofilm represents a potential strut in bacterial treatment failure. It has a dual action; it affords microbial resistance against antibiotics and facilitate transmission of pathogenic bacteria. Nosocomial bacteria pose a serious problem in healthcare units; it prolongs patient hospital stay and increases the mortality rates beside other awful economical effect. This study was planned for targeting nosocomial bacterial biofilm using natural and biologically safe compounds like Chitosan and/or Pluronic F127. Ninety-five isolates were recovered from 107 nosocomial clinical samples. Different bacterial and fungal species were detected, from which Klebsiella pneumonia (23%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (19%), Acinetobacter baumannii (18%) and E.coli (17%) were the predominate organisms. Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumanni and Klebsiella pneumonia were the abundant antibiotic resistant strains with multi-resistance pattern of 72%, 65% and 59%, respectively. A significant percentage of these isolates were strong biofilm forming. Herein, we investigate the effect of Chitosan and Pluronic F127 alone and in combination with each other against biofilm production. Chitosan show variable degree of biofilm inhibition, while Pluronic F127 was able to retard biofilm formation by 80% to 90% in most strain. There is no significant difference (P< 0.05) between Pluronic F127 alone and its effect in combination with Chitosan.

Dodonaea viscosa (Family: Sapindaceae) is a medicinal plant that has been used as anti-rheumatic and bone pain in Peru as a folk remedy. Ethanol extract obtained from D. viscosa leaves was partitioned as n-hexane fraction; chloroform fraction; ethyl acetate fraction; n-butanol fraction and aqueous fraction. Phytoconstituents from D. viscosa leaves were evaluated by using chemical reagents to identify the presence of each phytochemical. In addition, a cytotoxic effect was determined by the Sulforhodamine B (SRB) test. The results showed that the ethanol extract and ethyl acetate fraction of leaves had the highest variety of phytoconstituents. The ethanol extrac of leaves exhibited a major inhibitory effect compared to different fractions in human colon cancer cells (HT-29). From these assays, it is concluded that D. viscosa does not possess any detectable cytotoxic effect on epidermal cells from mouse (3T3), and a slight cytotoxic effect against HT-29 tumor cells compared to 5-FU. This species could appear like a good source of herbal medicine in colorectal cancer disease.

Authors: Maia Claudia Elly Larizzatti
Published: September 2020

O presente artigo tem por objetivo analisar se as novas regras para o registro de marcas no Brasil, introduzidas pelo Protocolo de Madri, podem contribuir para o crescimento do comércio internacional das empresas nacionais e cumprimento de sua função social, uma vez que o país depositou o instrumento de adesão junto à OMPI (Organização Mundial da Propriedade Intelectual), em 02 de julho de 2019, passando a vigorar no país em 02 de outubro de 2019. Com o tratado, as marcas de empresas registradas no país, poderão ser protegidas simultaneamente em mais de cem países, com redução de burocracia e custos. O pedido de registro internacional de uma marca depende de um depósito de pedido registro prévio nacional, por um período de cinco anos, e para que o pedido de registro internacional não corra o risco de ser indeferido, o empresário nacional, em face da economia globalizada, deve ter um cuidado cada vez maior para não utilizar uma marca parecida com outra já registrada e em uso, no mesmo segmento, em outros países. Por meio de extensa pesquisa bibliográfica, este artigo utiliza o método hipotético-dedutivo para atingir o objetivo almejado.

Authors: DE CARVALHO DIANA MENDONÇA , DA COSTA JOSÉ ELOÍZIO
Published: September 2020

O Programa Nacional de Fortalecimento da Agricultura Familiar (Pronaf) é uma ação governamental com 24 anos de existência. Está presente em praticamente todos os municípios brasileiros e se firma entre os pequenos agricultores como auxiliar no combate à pobreza rural. A partir disso, o trabalho objetiva analisar a evolução e as mudanças socioespaciais promovidas pelo Pronaf em Sergipe, em termos de inserção técnico-produtiva. A pesquisa tem caráter analítico-empírico, com base quanti e qualitativa, utilizando dados colhidos das bases do Banco Central (2005-2012) e do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE), além da validação perceptiva de 76 beneficiários, quanto à importância do Programa e das instituições parceiras na sua efetivação. Conclui-se que, após o acesso ao Pronaf, houve ampliação no número de agricultores que passaram a receber assistência técnica e extensão rural, aumento na aquisição e utilização de equipamentos técnicos-mecânicos, além do uso de insumos químicos modernos. A utilização desses condicionantes, principalmente após o acesso ao Pronaf, demonstra que o Programa tem sido uma experiência benéfica na promoção de mudanças socioespaciais no rural, alavancando e diversificando a produção das unidades familiares, de modo a integrá-las às demandas de mercado.

Authors: Dalcin Dionéia , Hartmann Raquel Jaíne
Published: September 2020

A agricultura familiar passou a ser reconhecida a partir da década de 1990, quando as precárias condições sociais e trabalhistas dos pequenos produtores exigiam a intervenção do Estado na construção de políticas públicas adequadas às suas especificidades. Diante deste cenário, originou-se, em 1996, o Programa Nacional de Fortalecimento da Agricultura Familiar (Pronaf). Assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a captação de recursos e as características dos contratos de custeio e investimento do Pronaf nos municípios do Corede Missões/RS (2013-2018). Adotou-se como metodologia as abordagens quantitativa e descritiva, os dados secundários são oriundos da Matriz de Dados de Créditos Rurais, do Banco Central do Brasil, período 2013-2018, e a análise de dados foi realizada com estatística descritiva. Como resultados, evidencia-se a captação de aproximadamente 67 mil contratos e 1,5 bilhões de reais na modalidade custeio, sendo que os principais produtos foram grãos e bovinos, com destaque para os municípios de Giruá e São Paulo das Missões. Na modalidade investimento, foram captados aproximadamente 27 mil contratos e 500 milhões de reais, sendo que os principais produtos foram bovinos e máquinas e implementos, destacando-se os municípios de Porto Xavier e Giruá. De forma geral, existem desigualdades na captação e características do Pronaf nos municípios do Corede Missões, dados semelhantes aos demais municípios do Rio Grande do Sul. Por fim, retrata-se o Pronaf como uma política pública que vem favorecendo o Corede Missões, com injeção de recursos para a agricultura familiar e democratizando o acesso ao crédito com o intuito de favorecer o meio rural.
CONTRIBUIÇÕES DO ACESSO AO CRÉDITO RURAL: UMA ANÁLISE ENTRE MULHERES NO NORTE DO RIO GRANDE DO SUL

Published: September 2020

Tradicionalmente, os processos sociais e culturais que marcam o meio rural brasileiro atribuem papéis distintos aos homens e mulheres, vinculando a elas tarefas pouco valorizadas em termos monetários. Entretanto, essa realidade começou a ser alterada com a mobilização das próprias mulheres rurais, que passaram a conquistar seus direitos, passando a ser inseridas na agenda de políticas públicas. Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar o processo de acesso ao crédito rural por mulheres no Território da Cidadania Médio Alto Uruguai, no estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Os resultados obtidos demonstram que o ato de acessar o crédito, quando exercido por mulheres, tem o objetivo maior de melhorar a qualidade de vida da família, por meio do aumento da produção e, consequente, da renda familiar. A principal atividade produtiva a qual recebe investimentos dos projetos das mulheres é a atividade leiteira, que, comumente, já era desenvolvida no núcleo familiar. Nessa situação, a tomada de crédito se dá por meio de sistema produtivo já em curso, com o propósito de melhorá-lo. Os resultados permitem concluir ainda que o acesso ao crédito rural para investimento em atividade de interesse da mulher resulta em aumento da confiança, facilitando a comunicação e o relacionamento com outros atores sociais.

Este trabalho se inscreve no debate sobre o direcionamento do Programa Nacional de Fortalecimento da Agricultura Familiar (Pronaf), na modalidade de custeio agrícola, no estado do Rio Grande do Sul, no período recente (2013 a 2019). O objetivo é quantificar o número de contratos, os valores e as áreas financiadas pelo Pronaf custeio agrícola, por produto e problematizar o processo de commoditização do Pronaf junto aos agricultores familiares do Rio Grande do Sul. Com isso, serão debatidas a especialização e a concentração produtivas entre os agricultores familiares pronafianos (os que acessam o Pronaf). Em termos metodológicos, o recorte temporal da análise inicia em 2013 e finaliza em 2019, utilizando-se como fonte a Matriz de Dados do Crédito Rural (MDCR) para a tabulação e análise dos contratos firmados no período. Em termos de resultados, fica evidente que o processo de commoditização identificado entre os agricultores pronafianos é acompanhado da redução dos contratos e da área plantada da maioria dos produtos elegidos para este estudo, com exceção da soja e do alho. Por fim, a exposição a níveis superiores de especialização e concentração produtivas da agricultura familiar pronafiana no Rio Grande do Sul tem elevado potencial de aprofundar as desigualdades sociais e econômicas já existentes, servindo de alerta aos formuladores de políticas públicas para a agricultura familiar.

Este artigo estudou os beneficiários do Pronaf B no Semiárido brasileiro. O objetivo foi conhecer as condições materiais de produção e as estratégias adotadas para a reprodução social do grupo familiar. Partiu-se do pressuposto de que existe uma diversidade significativa de modos e bases materiais de produção e conhecimento entre agricultores. As estratégias de produção e reprodução que elaboram é função dessas bases e de sua interação com os meios socioeconômico e agroecológico. Utilizaram-se dados de uma base de pesquisa de campo do BNB realizada entre clientes do Pronaf em 2012, com o uso de questionários semiestruturados. Adotou-se o recorte para Pronaf B no Semiárido, que contempla 445 questionários dos 3.000 aplicados. Os resultados mostram que a maioria dos entrevistados tem boa capacidade de leitura, dispõe de moradias próprias e acesso a redes de abastecimento de água e energia elétrica. Mas a indisponibilidade de terras e de outros capitais físicos, associada às condições agroecológicas do semiárido, inviabilizam a produção em maior escala que, por sua vez, dificulta ou torna inadequado o uso de determinados equipamentos e implementos agrícolas, além de algumas práticas ou tecnologias. Para superar as limitações, elaboram estratégias de uso de terras em parceria, arrendamento e cessão, diversificação da produção, consórcio entre culturas, pluriatividade dentro e fora da unidade familiar, acesso ao crédito e prioridade a mercados de proximidade.

In recent decades, computer technologies and software such as computer-aided design (CAD) have been actively developing. Thanks to this, modern machine-building enterprises increase the reliability and quality of their products while reducing their weight and complexity of manufacturing. In order to meet numerous requirements, leading companies are increasingly using topological optimization tools at various design stages. The use of this method for effective product design is growing rapidly, due to the continuously increasing computing power of computers and software capabilities. Modern software for topological optimization allows to design the shape of the part from scratch, setting only the conditions for fixing and touching surfaces, and also allows to improve existing structures by reducing their weight based on the set restrictions (equal strength with the original part, equal deformation, preservation of natural frequency, etc.). However, the result of topological optimization is often a complex spatial structure. Using the example of the Earring element, a topological optimization of the structure was performed to ensure that the strength requirements were met and that the minimum mass was obtained. As a result of optimization, the design of a reduced weight compared to the prototype is obtained. The results of the verification calculation showed the sufficiency of the values of the strength reserves of the final design of the Earring.
Selection of sites for the construction of radioactive waste disposal points

Published: September 2020

The article deals with the selection of sites for the construction of nuclear installations, radioactive waste disposal sites and other facilities for the use of nuclear energy. The review of modern approaches to the selection of sites for placement of near-surface radioactive waste disposal points shows that the system research in this area is not fully presented, and is mainly aimed at solving problems of an engineering-geological nature for the location area, as well as the choice of materials for engineering protection barriers. In this paper, using the example of radioactive waste disposal sites, we review the requirements set by the regulatory documents of the Russian Federation and the International Atomic Energy Agency in the field of site selection. The authors proposed additions to the methodology for selecting sites for the construction of low-and medium-level waste disposal sites based on the system and GIS analysis of the ALARA principles, as well as the method of weighted evaluation of criteria and their pairwise comparisons. The multi-criteria nature of the site selection problem is proposed to be described by GIS analysis of data with drawing the corresponding limiting and preferred requirements directly on the map of the area, which is shown in the article by the example of selecting sites for radioactive waste disposal points. Taking into account the necessary requirements at various stages of the life cycle, as well as their significance, can be assessed by weighted estimates and pairwise comparisons, followed by their introduction into the GIS analysis. This approach allows to choose rational options for placing potential sites, taking into account the life cycle of the object, in a rational way, with compliance with all necessary regulatory requirements.

Published: September 2020

The article deals with the prospects of developing significant world reserves of high-viscosity oil. Its production requires specific equipment and technologies, selection of efficient equipment, as well as a special approach in its operation. At the same time it is necessary to take into account the influence of high viscosity on the main characteristics of pumps and on the operating conditions of the equipment in the well. The reasons for unstable operation of the ESP at start-up after long stops are described. The methods of recalculation of characteristics of pumps for oil production of common design are offered. Some results of researches of such pumps on viscous liquid and recommendations on calculation of a flowing part are provided. The possibilities of pumps with open impeller stages and with increased shaft speeds are determined. Additional reasons for decreasing the characteristics of the pump on the viscous fluid, results of the test of stage assembly with measurement of average circumferential components of flow rates at different viscosity of the pumped fluid are given. The possibility of using helico-axial pumps is also considered. Application of modern programs and methods of equipment selection and operation, ESP rotor speed regulation, liquid temperature regulation in tubing and automation of the whole oil production process is recommended. Possible design changes of the ESP in the process of tubing production for the purpose of increasing their efficiency in comparison with the serial pumps are specified. The article can be useful for specialists in design, selection and operation of equipment for high-viscosity oil production.

Due to the active development of industries using nuclear technology, the creation of highly effective and cost-effective building materials for protection against hazardous ionizing radiation is of increasing interest. Widespread in the field of radiation-protective building materials are barite-containing concrete. The purpose of this article is to establish the prospects of their use in nuclear facilities, as well as to find ways to improve their technical and operational characteristics. For this an analysis of relevant literature and scientific research in the field of radiation-protective materials and, in particular, barite-containing concrete was carried out. The advantages of barite-containing concrete are high radiation-protective properties, environmental friendliness, high density, as well as economic indicators. The disadvantages are high susceptibility to shrinkage deformation and poor resistance to cyclic temperature effects. The addition of barite to the concrete composition allows to increase the coefficient of linear absorption of -rays of the material; also, with the proper selection of the composition, such material may have strength characteristics equal to or superior to the characteristics of concrete with standard compositions. Barite-containing materials have a wide range of applications and can be used both for the production of heavy concrete in the construction of load-bearing structures and in the creation of radiation-protective coatings for walls and floors.
