Value-based work motivation: the East Asian experience
Authors:   State Institution “Institute for Economics and Forecasting, NAS of Ukraine”, Piliaiev Igor
Published: December 2023

The article examines the experience of value-based work motivation in modernized East Asian societies and economies of the Confucian tradition. The author considers the ontological, anthropological, civilization-cultural, socio-psychological, political-economic and applied (on the cases of Japan and China) aspects of the above mentioned problem. Performed an interdisciplinary analysis of the worldview and value-based foundations of work motivation, and various characteristic features of the labor and corporate ethics of the Confucian-tradition countries, which contributed to the phenomenal success of their post-war reconstruction, and economic and social modernization. Applied the fractal-synergistic method developed by the author, along with various tools of social philosophy, political economy, psychology, and modernization theory. The author shows that the present mode of thinking (and the corresponding value-based motivation) of a typical Western person, based on the dichotomy of the individual “I” and the outside world, turns out to be significantly more conservative and resistant to the Fourth Industrial Revolution, associated with the widespread introduction of artificial intelligence and the blurring of boundaries between inorganic, living and digital realities, than the traditionally holistic consciousness of China and the “Confucian tigers”, which perceives nature, society and human in an organic unity. This phenomenon is in sharp contrast to the eras of the first three industrial revolutions, when the West, primarily the Protestant West was the undisputed global leader in technological progress, the introduction of innovations, and the intensive growth of labor productivity. It is proved that in the newly industrialized countries of East Asia, the reformed and modernized Confucianism actually acts as a consolidating positive civil religion and a value-motivational driver of dynamic socio-economic development. The author evaluates the relevance of the East Asian experience of the value-based work motivation in the context of the transformation of societal values in Ukraine and the imperatives of the post-war reconstruction of this country’s economy. It is concluded that the communitarian-solidarist system of labor ethics inherent in East Asian countries has a significant potential for its implementation in Ukraine.

Published: December 2023

Video content has become integral to our daily lives, but poor video quality can significantly reduce viewers' experience and engagement. Various super-resolution methods are used to correct this, thereby reconstructing high-resolution videos from low-resolution ones. Two main categories of super-resolution methods exist traditional image processing and deep learning-based techniques. Deep learning-based techniques, such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), have shown great promise in enhancing video quality. The article discusses multiple adaptations of contemporary deep learning models to enhance video resolution. It also briefly explains the framework's design and implementation aspects. Lastly, the paper presents an overview and comparative analysis of the VSR techniques' efficiency on various benchmark datasets. At the same time, the paper describes potential challenges when choosing training sets; performance metrics, which can be used to compare different algorithms quantitatively. This work does not describe absolutely all existing VSR methods, but it is expected to contribute to the development of recent research in this field and potentially deepen our understanding of deep learning-based VSR methods, as well as stimulate further research in this area. In this work, new solutions for improving the performance of the methods are proposed, in particular, new quality metrics and datasets for model training. Overall, AI-based methods for VSR are becoming increasingly crucial with the rising demand for high-quality video content

The work is dedicated to describing a methodology for generating activity scenarios based on causal networks formed using generative artificial intelligence. The methodology is based on the use of a bidirectional algorithm for generating causal networks. According to this algorithm, two networks are formed and then combined – the first network starts from a node corresponding to the initial state of the problem (the root cause), and the second network corresponds to the goal that needs to be achieved. The article demonstrates the possibility of constructing such causal networks based on the use of a generative transformer like ChatGPT, and provides an example of scenario generation in the subject field of mobile communication. The methodology combines tools for text analysis and the formation of causal networks, followed by the selection and ranking of narrative chains based on the analysis of these networks

Published: December 2023

The restoration of the surface of damaged parts made of high-strength titanium alloys by the method of restorative surfacing with the use of filler wires is a quite reasonable and promising technique since its aims is to restore a partially damaged surface of parts while preserving their strength properties. However, this technique requires a significant number of static, fatigue and corrosion tests to be followed by suitable processing of the obtained results to correct or improve even the welding technology. The main purpose of the research was to study the fatigue behavior of samples with a restored surface by the method of metal surfacing. Fatigue tests were carried out on VT-22 alloy samples, the surface of which was restored by surfacing using SP-15 and VT-22 filler wires. Fractography revealed the presence of several welding defects (pores mainly) located both in the zone of the deposited metal and on its borders. These conclusions summarize the obtained research results and provide important information about the correlation between welding defects, fatigue strength, and the properties of the VT-22 alloy. The results showed that the presence of these defects is primarily related to the initiation of fatigue cracks. The size and shape of defects, as well as their location relative to the deposited layer, also affected the reduction of fatigue properties. Correcting the surfacing conditions may significantly reduce the critical size of defects and, as a result, significantly increase the residual life of restored parts. Keywords: high-strength titanium alloy VT-22, welding pores, segregation of defects, zone of thermal influence, cyclic loading.

Features of strengthening of the near-surface layer of ADI during friction due to strain-induced martensitic transformation were analyzed by duromeric methods. Indentation under continuous loading (Meyer hardness, HM) and Vickers microhardness Hμ were used. Pop–ins are observed on the ADI continuous load curves, which indicate martensitic transformations during indentation. The effect usually exists at a load of ~0,1 H and an depth of ~1,5 μk. The average microhardness of the initial sample is Hμ ≈ 4,89 GPa. After wear, the average value increases to Hμ ≈ 6,92 GPa. Statistical analysis of the microhardness distribution of the sample after wear revealed that a third of the indentations have abnormally high hardness, which is characteristic of deformation-induced martensite. Probably, these indents are obtained from regions of the structure where deformation-induced martensitic transformation took place. Increasing the indentation load practically does not affect the determination of the microhardness of the initial sample, but reduces the hardness of the sample after wear. This indicates the gradient nature of deformation and phase-structural rearrangements in the near-surface layer during wear. As the friction temperature increases, there is a decrease in microhardness in the wear zone. This is explained by the departure from the temperature range of the martensitic transformation, due to which the TRIP effect is weakened. The maximum degradation of microhardness is observed between room temperature and 50 oC. Keywords: ADI materials, durometric studies, TRIP-effect, wear.

The low-temperature phase stability of materials in the ZrO2—Y2O3—CeO2 system with compositions, % (mol.): 97ZrO2—3Y2O3; 95ZrO2—3Y2O3—2CeO2; 92,5ZrO2—2,5Y2O3—5CeO2; 90ZrO2—2Y2O3—8CeO2; 88ZrO2—12CeO2 was studied. Treatment of materials in hydrothermal conditions under an increased holding time (14 hours) was used. The starting powders were produced by the hydrothermal synthesis in an alkaline medium and heat-treated at 850 °C. The samples were sintered at 1350 oC. The materials properties were investigated by the X-ray phase analysis and electron microscopy. The aging stability of ceramics was determined by the degree of phase transformation T-ZrO2 → M-ZrO2 under experimental conditions. Porous microstructures were formed in the samples, which differ in the size distribution of both grains and pores. A characteristic feature is the presence of various amounts of fine-grained fragments with a regular microstructure and the formation of both rounded and elongated grains.The phase transformation T-ZrO2 → M-ZrO2 leads to an increase of the samples porosity. This, in turn, contributes to the intensification of the ceramics aging. After 14 h the phase transformation T-ZrO2 → M-ZrO2 was found in four samples. In the sample 97ZrO2—3Y2O3, 46% of M-ZrO2 was formed; in the 95ZrO2—3Y2O3—2CeO2 sample, 48% of M-ZrO2 was formed; in the 92,5ZrO2—2,5Y2O3—5CeO2 sample, 39% of M-ZrO2 was formed. In the 90ZrO2—2Y2O3–8CeO2 sample ≈1% of M-ZrO2 appeared, and in the 88ZrO2—12CeO2 sample M-ZrO2 was not identified. Formation features of the solid solution during the doping of zirconia with yttrium oxide and cerium oxide, the amount of cerium oxide in a ZrO2-based solid solution, the phase transformation F-ZrO2 → T-ZrO2 during the sintering and the formation of a homogeneous microstructure contribute to increasing the low-temperature phase stability of samples both 90ZrO2—2Y2O3—8CeO2 and 88ZrO2—12CeO2 composition. During the microstructural design of ceramics in the ZrO2—Y2O3—CeO2 system with increased low-temperature phase stability, it is necessary to establish such a ratio of Y2O3 and CeO2 in the solid solution based on ZrO2 that would provide the necessary strength behavior according to the ceramics use. Keywords: ZrO2—Y2O3—CeO2 system, ZrO2-based solid solution, M-ZrO2 phase, aging, low-temperature phase stability.

A study was carried out of the processes of compaction, structure formation and mechanical properties of ceramics based on zirconium boride with sintering-activating additives of boron, silicon and chromium carbides, as well as molybdenum silicide, obtained under hot pressing conditions in a CO atmosphere. In ZrB2—18% (vol.) B4C ceramics, the use of the B4C additive reduces the optimal hot pressing temperature to 1940 °C and accelerates the compaction process of the ceramics. The influence of the sample preparation background on high-temperature creep has been established, as a result of which either plastic flow of the material occurs over a wide temperature range, or a high temperature threshold for yield and brittle fracture. In ZrB2—SiC ceramics, during high-temperature plastic deformation both during sintering and in creep tests, a bidisperse structure with a submicrograined component is formed, which is responsible for high creep rates. In ZrB2—B4C ceramics there is no submicrograin component, which provides high creep resistance up to 2000 °C. The phase composition of ZrB2—MoSi2 ceramics changes dramatically during hot pressing; it is represented by a composition of a ZrB2 solid solution with the second phases of SiC and B4C, and in terms of creep resistance it occupies an intermediate position between two other ceramics. Keywords: ultra-high temperature ceramics, zirconium diboride, silicon, boron and chromium carbides, hot pressing in a CO atmosphere, compaction kinetics, structure, creep resistance.

Subject and Purpose. In Part 2 of the current paper, we seek to analyze the observational results of decameter carbon radio recombi- nation lines (RRLs) detected near the frequency 26 MHz through the UTR-2 radio telescope towards the S140 emission nebula and the GSH 139-03-69 super shell. These lines have proven themselves as a highly effective tool for cold, rarefied interstellar medium (ISM) diagnostics. The aim is to determine an association of line-forming regions (CII regions) with other ISM components and study physical conditions (electron temperature Te and electron density Ne) in these regions. Methods and Methodology. By iterative comparison of detected and modeled integral intensities of decameter carbon RRLs, we determine physical state ranges where recorded experimental data best fit the model values for various combinations of Te , Ne , and path lengths s. Results. It has been found that the characteristics of the detected decameter carbon RRLs are consistent with the higher-frequency data for both the S140 line of sight and other Galactic plane directions, including the GSH 139-03-69 direction. Ranges of physical con- ditions where recorded data and model values are in the best agreement have been determined, being Te 50 ÷ 100 K, Ne 0.01 cm–3, and s 10 pc — for the S140 nebula direction and its vicinity and, also, Te 50 ÷ 100 K, Ne 0.01 cm–3, and s 5 ÷ 7 pc — for the GSH 139-03-69 super shell direction. Conclusions. The obtained results indicate that the detected decameter carbon RRLs originate from CII regions associated with clouds of diffuse neutral hydrogen HI in the Galactic plane. The lines are seen against a background Galactic radio emission whose brightness temperature increases as frequency decreases.
A SIMPLE METHOD FOR IMPROVING OUT-OF-BAND HIGH-FREQUENCY STABILITY OF RADIO FREQUENCY AMPLIFIERS
Authors:   Institute of Radio Astronomy of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Khristenko A.
Published: December 2023

Subject and Purpose. Methods for determining and ensuring the stability of radio frequency (RF) amplifiers have been progressing quite actively over the past decades. However, most of them are not convenient for practical use. Combining analytical and graphical techniques widely accepted at the moment requires a highly skillful user and licensed software. Also, a bad point is the lack of clear algorithms for increasing the out-of-band high-frequency stability of amplifiers, sending us to the procedure of successive approx- imations when an optimal solution for an individual scheme is sought. The present work seeks for a simple method that effectively increases the out-of-band high-frequency stability of RF amplifiers and improves the reliability of signal amplification systems, espe- cially those complex structures that incorporate low-frequency radio telescopes. Methods and Methodology. The parameters of the RF amplifiers and passive circuits are obtained by computer modeling upon the S-parameters given by the manufacturer. The amplifier stability is determined by the K-factor for stability. Results. A simple universal method has been developed to improve the out-of-band high-frequency stability of RF amplifiers. In this method, a stabilization RstabLstab circuit is connected to the amplifier in series with the load. An original procedure has been designed to calculate the stabilization circuit. Also, a metric has been proposed that evaluates the practical margins of the out-of-band high-frequency stability of RF amplifiers and makes it possible to compare them one to another. Finally, the proposed method offers freedom from the licensed software. Conclusions. The proposed method significantly increases the high-frequency stability of RF amplifiers beyond the operating fre- quency range and simplifies the technological requirements for the design. The employment of RF amplifiers is more available almost without compromising their performance in the operating frequency range. The method is simple and easy to apply.

Published: December 2023

OBJECTIVES

Primary mental health admissions are increasing across US children’s hospitals. These patients may experience agitation requiring pharmacologic restraint. This study characterized pharmacologic restraint use in medical inpatient units by primary mental health diagnosis.

METHODS

This retrospective, cross-sectional study used the Pediatric Health Information System database. The study included children aged 5 to 17 years admitted with a primary mental health diagnosis between 2016 and 2021. Rates of pharmacologic restraint use per 1000 patient days were determined for 13 mental health diagnoses and trended over time with Poisson regression.

RESULTS

Of 91 898 hospitalizations across 43 hospitals, 3% of admissions and 1.3% of patient days involved pharmacologic restraint. Trends in the rate of pharmacologic restraint use remained stable (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.7–2.1), whereas the incidence increased by 141%. Diagnoses with the highest rates of pharmacologic restraint days per 1000 patient days included autism (79.4; 95% CI, 56.2–112.3), substance-related disorders (45.0; 95% CI, 35.9–56.4), and disruptive disorders (44.8; 95% CI, 25.1–79.8). The restraint rate significantly increased in disruptive disorders (rate ratio [RR], 1.4; 95% CI, 1.1–1.6), bipolar disorders (RR, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.4–3.0), eating disorders (RR, 2.4; 95% CI, 1.5–3.9), and somatic disorders (RR, 4.2; 95% CI, 1.9–9.1). The rate significantly decreased for autism (RR, 0.8; 95% CI, 0.6–1.0) and anxiety disorders (RR, 0.3; 95% CI, 0.2–0.6).

CONCLUSIONS

Pharmacologic restraint use among children hospitalized with a primary mental health diagnosis increased in incidence and varied by diagnosis. Characterizing restraint rates and trends by diagnosis may help identify at-risk patients and guide targeted interventions to improve pharmacologic restraint utilization.

Education of Albanian Teachers in Socialist Montenegro (1945-1955)/Obrazovanje albanskih učitelja u socijalističkoj Crnoj Gori (1945. – 1955.)
Authors: Scekic Milan
Published: December 2023

Abstract The paper analyses the process of education of Albanian teachers during the first decade of socialist rule in Montenegro (1945–1955). The issue of education among the Albanian population in Montenegro was a complex task of the socialist government, where teachers educated and engaged in Albanian-language schools, seeking to bring the Albanian ethnic community closer to their own political worldviews, but because of the specific historical, social and cultural context, encountered great limitations. In research, we predominantly used first-class historical sources stored in the State Archives of Montenegro, press and literature, which deal with the issue of education of Albanian teachers. The aim of the paper is to present the main processes of educating Albanian teachers and to point out that out of a modest number of unskilled population, the socialist government created a solid base of educated Albanian teachers after 1945.Keywords: socialist government; socialist ideology; teachers education of Albanians; the totalitarian regime in Montenegrо; Socialist Montenegro---Sažetak U članak se analizira proces obrazovanja albanskih učitelja tijekom prvoga desetljeća socijalističke vladavine u Crnoj Gori (1945. – 1955.). Jedan od složenijih zadataka socijalističke vlade bio je problem obrazovanja albanskoga stanovništva Crne Gore, gdje su učitelji poučavali i djelovali u školama na albanskom jeziku, nastojeći albansku etničku zajednicu približiti vlastitim političkim svjetonazorima, ali su naišli na velike prepreke zbog specifičnoga povijesnog, društvenog i kulturnog konteksta. U istraživanju uglavnom su korišteni primarni povijesne izvori koji se čuvaju u Državnom arhivu Crne Gore, odnosno, tisak i literatura koji se odnose na pitanje obrazovanja albanskih učitelja. Cilj je ovoga rad predstaviti glavne procese obrazovanja albanskih učitelja i istaknuti da je od maloga broja nekvalificiranoga stanovništva socijalistička vlada nakon 1945. uspostavila čvrstu bazu obrazovanih albanskih učitelja.Ključne riječi: socijalistička vlada; socijalistička ideologija; obrazovanje učitelja Albanaca; totalitarni režim u Crnoj Gori; socijalistička Crna Gora

As a result of genetic changes and mutations of SARS-CoV-2, new variants emerge that have different properties compared to the original strains of the virus, which is a challenge for public health. XBB.1.5, also known as Kraken, is a subvariant of Omicron, and it is the most infectious and transmissible strain of SARS-CoV-2 to date. XBB.1.5 is the dominant strain in the United States of America, spreading worldwide, including in Europe and Asia. XBB.1.5 has properties to evade the immune system and reinfect individuals who have had COVID-19 before due to its strong binding to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2, and antibody evasion. Treatment and postexposure prophylaxis using monoclonal antibodies are ineffective against the Kraken variant, which is especially problematic for immunocompromised individuals and those with contraindications for vaccination, for example due to severe anaphylaxis or anaphylactic shock after prior administration of the vaccine, who require additional preventive measures. However, antiviral drugs including remdesivir, molnupiravir, nirmatrelvir, and ensitrelvir are still effective in treating COVID-19 caused by the XBB.5 variant. Currently, vaccine efficacy against XBB.1.5 variant is yet unknown. However, according to early studies, XBB and its sublineages have a greater ability for immune evasion than other variants, and the protection against infection via vaccination is reduced.

Nasopharyngeal tuberculosis is rare, even in endemic areas. It can be primary or secondary to pulmonary or systemic tuberculosis. Although nasopharyngeal tuberculosis represents less than 1% of all tuberculosis cases, there has been an increase in cases reported recently. The variety of presenting symptoms in nasopharyngeal tuberculosis makes it challenging to diagnose because the condition commonly mimics other pathologies. In this paper, we would like to share our experience managing three cases of rare primary nasopharyngeal tuberculosis with different backgrounds. We provide a comparison in their clinical presentations, and endoscopic and radiological features, highlighting the situations when nasopharyngeal tuberculosis needs to be considered as a differential diagnosis. A nasopharyngeal biopsy is helpful to establish the diagnosis. The patients responded well to anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy. The variation in findings proves that it is important to have a high index of suspicion in order to get an accurate early diagnosis and initiate proper treatment.

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar os marcos legislativos no que tange à formação de professores no contexto da Educação Profissional e Tecnológica (EPT) e destacar o efeito desses instrumentos no processo de construção do perfil docente. Busca-se, ainda, refletir sobre os saberes essenciais à prática educativa na EPT. A metodologia consistiu na abordagem qualitativa, e, quanto ao procedimento, o estudo estrutura-se por meio de uma pesquisa bibliográfica. Os resultados evidenciaram que as políticas de formação de professores para a EPT se constituíram, ao longo dos anos, de forma inconsistente e relapsa. É possível identificar, ainda, os seus resquícios atualmente, ao se encontrar um grande número de bacharéis lecionando em cursos técnicos sem a devida formação pedagógica para tal.

Resumo

O presente artigo tem por objetivo fomentar a discussão sobre a didática crítico-reflexiva no estágio curricular. Considerando a necessidade de mediação teórico-prática para a construção das aprendizagens na educação profissional, entendemos o estágio como momento importante na formação que viabiliza o exercício de apreensão dos discentes sobre as demandas cotidianas, fomentando a busca de estratégias e alternativas para resolução das problemáticas identificadas. Para tanto, propomos a execução de uma oficina de elaboração de projetos como modelo didático-metodológico a ser utilizado para viabilizar a construção de propostas interventivas qualificadas, voltando-se ao sentido de práxis. A discussão teórica está fundamentada na perspectiva ontológica, apropriando-se de referenciais histórico-dialéticos.

Published: December 2023

Este estudo versa sobre a configuração do campo científico da educação profissional e tecnológica no Brasil, analisando os possíveis impactos da Rede Federal de Educação Profissional, Científica e Tecnológica nesse processo. Recuperando o conceitos de campo científico de Bourdieu e de configuração de Elias, analisa a educação profissional do ponto de vista acadêmico (produção de teses e dissertações), científico (formação de grupos de pesquisa) e curricular (criação de programas de pós-graduação), fazendo uso das bases de dados do CNPq, da Capes e do Google Acadêmico. Conclui que a Rede Federal contribuiu para um progressivo incremento científico, acadêmico e curricular do campo da educação profissional, mas de forma insuficiente para subverter o monopólio da autoridade científica instituído.

Bu çalışmanın konusu Türkiye’de 2005-2015 yılları arasında yazılan ve YÖK Ulusal Tez Merkezinde bulunan Din Sosyolojisi alanındaki yüksek lisans ve doktora tezlerinin konusuna, ele aldıklarını ana kavrama, türüne, danışman unvanına, yazıldığı yıla ve üniversiteye göre incelenmesidir. Bu araştırmamız, din sosyolojisi alanındaki tezlere hızlı, kolay ulaşım ve alanı bütüncül görme problemine çözüm arayışının bir ürünü olarak nitelenebilir. Bu araştırma sayesinde, araştırılmak istenen konunun, din sosyolojisi alan yazınındaki mevcut durumu daha net görülecek; tekrarlardan arınık, yeni ve özgün çalışmalar için imkân sağlanmış olacaktır. Verilerin çözümlenmesinde betimsel analiz kullanılmıştır. Yapılan bu araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre; Türkiye’de Din Sosyolojisi alanında yapılan çalışmaların büyük kısmını yüksek lisans tezleri oluşturmaktadır. 2005-2015 yılları arasında yazılan tezlerde en çok “dini hayat” (n=32) kavramı ele alınmıştır. Daha sonra sırasıyla “kadın” (n=23), “din görevlileri” (n=21), “dindarlık” (n=13) ve “Alevilik” (n=12) kavramları üzerinde araştırmalar yapılmıştır. Tezlerin teorik/ampirik olarak kategorik dağılımına bakıldığında yüksek lisans düzeyindeki bilimsel çalışmaların 114’ü kuramsal din sosyolojisi araştırması, 134’ü ise ampirik çalışmadır. Doktora tezlerinde ise ampirik çalışmaların ağırlığının daha fazla olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Tezlerin konu edilen Din Sosyolojisi genel konusuna göre dağılımına bakıldığında daha çok “toplumsal yapı ve kurumlar üzerine” çalışmalar yapıldığı görülmüştür.
Modeling of Non-Isothermal Polymer Melt Flow in a Conical Annular Channel of a Disk Extruder

Purpose. The homogenization zone consists of various channels with different configurations, for each of which it is necessary to determine the passage of the melt flow process, and on its basis - the velocity fields, which determine the quality of mixing and distribution of components in the melt. To ensure a flexible and controllable homogenization process with the possibility of improving the quality of the melt, it is necessary to study the flow processes in the channels of a disk extruder. Therefore, the main objective of this work is to perform hydrodynamic modeling of processes during melt flow in a conical channel. Methodology. To achieve this goal, we propose a methodology for determining the flow processes in a conical channel, and find out which zones are convenient to consider in a special conical orthogonal coordinate system. For this purpose, the change in the radial coordinate , which has the same meaning in both the straight and the conical gap, was described - it is a coordinate along the width of the gap. This makes it possible to further apply this coordinate for the width of the disk gap - between the moving and stationary disks. Findings. A method has been proposed that describes the flow processes in the conical channel of the homogenization zone of a disk extruder. The calculation procedure is presented in an analytical form, and graphical dependences of the distribution of tangential and longitudinal velocities and shear velocities of the melt flow along the width of the annular channel at the nominal and maximum disk speeds and at the nominal and maximum disk gap are also given. Originality. For the first time, a methodology for calculating the conical channel of the homogenization zone of a disk extruder is presented, which describes the flow processes in a conical orthogonal coordinate system, which allows taking into account the common coordinate for the entire homogenization zone. The general procedure for calculating the channels of the homogenization zone has been supplemented. Practical value. The procedure for calculating the channels of the homogenization zone, which was started earlier, was extended and applied to the flow in a conical annular channel. This coordinate allows us to describe the flow processes along the width of the channel for all channels of the homogenization zone of a disk extruder, which greatly simplifies the calculations. Important results of hydrodynamic and thermal processes were obtained for the annular channel, which makes it possible to design disk extruders with greater accuracy and calculate their optimal operating modes.
