Published: June 2021

This article is aimed at studying the socio-psychological problem of lone fathers. The factors that lead to the occurrence, formation of incomplete paternal families (widowhood, divorce, asocial behavior of women) are given in the examples. It is noted that factors leading to single fatherhood negatively affect the psychological and social status of a father. This phenomenon is considered both from the socio-psychological and legal point of view. Questions about the implementation of the basic rights, privileges and guarantees of single fathers in Kazakhstan are not left without attention.
Features of increasing interest in tradition in modern societies and compensation theory
Authors:   Al-Farabi Kazakh National University, Kazakhstan, Zhanguzhekova D.Zh.
Published: June 2021

The phenomenon of «tradition» in the realities of modern society requires an important rethinking and differentiation between its objective existence as a certain component of social reality, as well as tradition as a fact of consciousness of society, as an ideologeme. In science, «tradition» is interpreted not as an unchanging and frozen pattern, but as a constantly transforming, reconstructed and, paradoxically, sometimes trying to keep up with the times phenomenon. What is important, reconstruction can take place spontaneously, and therefore subjects, as a rule, recreate such behavior patterns that were learned in the process of socialization.
Social and psychological factors of psychological wellbeing in higher education system of Kazakhstan
Authors:   Al-Farabi Kazakh National University, Kazakhstan, Niyazova А.Е.
Published: June 2021

The article investigates the relationship of psychological wellbeing and success in the professional activity of the person. Despite the fact that psychological wellbeing comes out as mainly psychological term, particularly in case of studying the employees of universities it turns to its sociological side. Due to the fact that any kind of communication is close to sociological stream and some issues in the used questionnaires reflects the sociology as well. The understanding of term success in this work turns to the concept of stress resistance and a willingness and readiness for change of the people.

Тhe article deals with issues related to hearing-impaired students of higher education institutions and colleges. These are young people with partial hearing loss with possible speech development disorders. Impaired, weak hearing is likely to be either congenital, acquired, or inherited diseases or the consequences of injuries. In modern society, a student with poor hearing is not only a young person engaged in the process of learning, but a person who is forced to adapt day by day to interact with society to solve hourly tasks and, unfortunately, most often finds himself not in the society of hearing people, but "next" to him.

A pandemia da pandemia: a ciência por trás das “fake news”
Authors: Moreno Esteban Lopez
Published: June 2021

A ascensão da pandemia do COVID-19 no cenário mundial fez crescer na população a necessidade de conhecer um pouco melhor a Ciência. Por outro lado, as redes sociais tornaram-se um farto canal de informações falsas ou distorcidas; mais conhecidas como “fake news”. Muitas dessas resvalam rapidamente à população como orientações bem embasadas por “especialistas”, mas que, na via dos fatos, demonstram um outro tipo de pandemia, o da desinformação científica. Neste artigo, exploramos alguns dos “maus” exemplos de “fake news” associadas à Ciência, revelando-lhes um sentido mais adequado e propondo também aproveitá-las como oportunidade de aplicação como recursos pedagógicos e de conscientização social.

Abstract. We evaluated the effects of supplementing cattle feed with difructose anhydride III (DFA III) by measuring urinary sterigmatocystin (STC) concentrations using 20 Japanese Black cattle aged 9–10 months from one herd. DFA III was supplemented for 2 weeks for 10 animals, and non-treated animals served as controls. The natural STC concentration in the dietary feed was 0.06 mg kg−1 (mixture of roughage and concentrate) at the beginning of the study (Day 0). The urine STC concentration was measured using liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry 1 d prior to DFA III administration, 9 and 14 d thereafter, and 9 d following supplementation cessation, concomitant with the measurement of serum amyloid A (SAA). The number of heifers in which STC was detected in the urine was low (10 %) in the DFA III group compared to that (60 %) in the control group on Day 9. After 9 d following supplementation cessation (Day 23), STC concentrations were significantly lower (P=0.032) in the DFA III group than in the control group, although there was no difference in the number of heifers in which urinary STC was detected or in SAA concentrations between the two groups. Our findings demonstrate the effect of DFA III on reducing the urinary concentration of STC in Japanese Black cattle.
A strong statistical link between aerosol indirect effects and the self-similarity of rainfall distributions
Authors: Furtado Kalli , Field Paul
Published: June 2021

Abstract. We use convective-scale simulations of monsoonal clouds to reveal a self-similar probability density function that underpins surface rainfall statistics. This density is independent of cloud-droplet number concentration and is unchanged by aerosol perturbations. It therefore represents an invariant property of our model with respect to cloud-aerosol interactions. For a given aerosol concentration, if the dependence of at least one moment of the rainfall distribution on cloud-droplet number is a known input parameter, then the self-similar density can be used to reconstruct the entire rainfall distribution to a useful degree of accuracy. In particular, we present both single-moment and double-moment reconstructions that are able to predict the responses of the rainfall distributions to changes in aerosol concentration. In doing so we show that the seemingly high-dimensional space of possible aerosol-induced rainfall-distribution transformations can be parametrized by a surprisingly small (at most three) independent “degrees of freedom”: the self-similar density, and auxiliary information about two moments of the rainfall distribution. This suggests that, although aerosol-indirect effects on any specific hydro-meteorological system may be multifarious in terms of rainfall changes and physical mechanisms, there may, nevertheless, be a universal constraint on the number of independent degrees of freedom needed to represent the dependencies of rainfall on aerosols.
Even moderate geomagnetic pulsations can cause fluctuations of foF2 frequency of the auroral ionosphere
Authors: Yagova Nadezda , Kozlovsky Alexander , Fedorov Evgeny , Kozyreva Olga
Published: June 2021

Abstract. The ionosonde at the Sodankylä Geophysical Observatory (SOD; 67∘ N,
27∘ E; Finland) routinely performs vertical sounding once per
minute which enables the study of fast ionospheric variations at a
frequency of the long-period geomagnetic pulsations Pc5–6/Pi3
(1–5 mHz). Using the ionosonde data from April 2014–December
2015 and colocated geomagnetic measurements, we have investigated
a correspondence between the magnetic field pulsations and
variations of the critical frequency of radio waves reflected from
the ionospheric F2 layer (foF2). For this study, we have developed
a technique for automated retrieval of the critical frequency of
the F2 layer from ionograms. As a rule, the Pc5–6/Pi3 frequency
band fluctuations in foF2 were observed at daytime during quiet or
moderately disturbed space weather conditions. In most cases
(about 80 %), the coherence between the foF2 variations and
geomagnetic pulsations was low. However in some cases (specified
as “coherent”) the coherence was as large as γ2≥0.5.
The following conditions are favorable for the occurrence of
coherent cases: enhanced auroral activity (6 h maximal auroral electrojet (AE)
≥800 nT), high solar wind speed (V>600 km/s), fluctuating
solar wind pressure and northward interplanetary magnetic field.
In the cases when the coherence was higher at shorter periods of
oscillations, the magnetic pulsations demonstrated features
typical for the Alfvén field line resonance.
Different responses of ecosystem CO2 and N2O emissions and CH4 uptake to seasonally asymmetric warming in an alpine grassland of the Tianshan
Authors: Gong Yanming , Yue Ping , Li Kaihui , Mohammat Anwar , Liu Yanyan
Published: June 2021

Abstract. An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of seasonally
asymmetric warming on ecosystem respiration (Re), CH4 uptake, and
N2O emissions in alpine grassland of the Tianshan of central
Asia, from October 2016 to September 2019. The annual means of Re, CH4,
and N2O fluxes in growing season were 42.83 mg C m−2 h−1,
−41.57 µg C m−2 h−1, and 4.98 µg N m−2 h−1,
respectively. Furthermore, warming during the non-growing season increased
Re and CH4 uptake by 7.9 % and 10.6 % in the growing season and 10.5 % and
9.2 % in the non-growing season, respectively. However, the increase in
N2O emission in the growing season was mainly caused by the warming
during the growing season (by 29.7 %). The warming throughout the year and
warming during the non-growing season increased N2O emissions by
101.9 % and 192.3 % in the non-growing season, respectively. The Re, CH4
uptake, and N2O emissions were positively correlated with soil
temperature. Our results suggested that Re, CH4 uptake, and N2O
emissions were regulated by soil temperature, rather than soil moisture, in
the case of seasonally asymmetric warming. In addition, the response rate
was defined by the changes in greenhouse gas fluxes driven by warming. In
our field experiment, we observed the stimulatory effect of warming during
the non-growing season on Re and CH4 uptake. In contrast, the response
rates of Re and N2O emissions were gradually attenuated by long-term
annual warming, and the response rate of Re was also weakened by warming over
the growing season. These findings highlight the importance of warming in
the non-growing season in regulating greenhouse gas fluxes, a finding which
is crucial for improving our understanding of C and N cycles under the
scenarios of global warming.
NEMO-Bohai 1.0: a high-resolution ocean and sea ice modelling system for the Bohai Sea, China
Authors: Yan Yu , Gu Wei , Gierisch Andrea M. U. , Xu Yingjun , Uotila Petteri
Published: June 2021

Abstract. Severe ice condition in the Bohai Sea could cause serious harm to maritime traffic, offshore oil exploitation, aquaculture, and other economic activities in the surrounding regions. In addition to providing sea ice forecasts for disaster prevention and risk mitigation, sea ice numerical models could help explain the sea ice variability within the context of climate change in marine ecosystems, such as that of spotted seals, which are the only ice-dependent sea animal that breeds in Chinese waters. Here, we developed NEMO-Bohai, an ocean-ice coupled model based on the Nucleus for European Modelling of the Ocean (NEMO) model version 4.0 and Sea Ice modelling Integrated Initiative (SI3) (NEMO4.0-SI3) for the Bohai Sea. This study will present the scientific design and technical choices of the parameterizations for the NEMO-Bohai model. The model was calibrated and evaluated with in situ and satellite observations of ocean and sea ice. The model simulations agree with the observations with respect to sea surface height (SSH), temperature (SST), and salinity (SSS). The seasonal variation of the sea ice area is well simulated by the model compared to the satellite remote sensing data for the period of 1996–2017, and there are similar overall statistics in the occurrence dates of annual maximum sea ice area. The simulated sea ice thickness and volume are in general agreement with the observations with slight over-estimations. NEMO-Bohai is able to simulate seasonal sea ice evolution and long-term interannual variations. Hence, Nemo-Bohai is intended to be a useful tool for long-term ocean and ice simulations as well as the ocean and climate change studies.
SIMO v1.0: Simplified model of the vertical temperature profile in a small warm monomictic lake
Authors: Šarović Kristina , Klaić Zvjezdana
Published: June 2021

Abstract. A simple 1-D energy budget model (SIMO) for the prediction of the vertical temperature profiles in small, monomictic lakes forced by a reduced number of input meteorological variables is proposed. The model estimates the net heat flux and thermal diffusion using only routinely measured hourly mean meteorological variables (namely, the air temperature, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind speed, and precipitation), hourly mean ultraviolet B radiation (UVB), and climatological monthly mean cloudiness data. Except for the initial vertical temperature profile, the model does not use any lake-specific variables. The model performance was evaluated against lake temperatures measured continuously during an observational campaign in two lakes belonging to the Plitvice Lakes, Croatia (Lake 1 and Lake 12). Temperatures were measured at 15 and 16 depths ranging from 0.2 to 27 in Lake 1 (maximum depth of 37.4 m) and 0.2 to 43 m in Lake 12 (maximum depth of 46 m). A sensitivity analysis of the simulation length was performed for simulation lengths from 1 to 30 days. The model performed reasonably well and it was able to satisfactorily reproduce the vertical temperature profile at the hourly scale, the deepening of the thermocline with time, and the annual variation in the vertical temperature profile. A yearlong simulation initiated with an approximately constant vertical profile of the lake temperature (≈ 4 °C) was able to reproduce the onset of stratification and convective overturn. However, the thermocline depth was underestimated while the epilimnion temperatures were overestimated. Nevertheless, the values of the model performance measures obtained for a yearlong simulation were comparable with those reported for other more complex models. Thus, the presented model can be used for the assessment of the onset and duration of lake stratification periods when water temperature data are unavailable, which can be useful for various lake studies performed in other scientific fields, such as biology, geochemistry, and sedimentology.
Interactions of plutons and detachments: a comparison of Aegean and Tyrrhenian granitoids
Authors: Jolivet Laurent , Arbaret Laurent , Le Pourhiet Laetitia , Cheval-Garabédian Florent , Roche Vincent , Rabillard Aurélien , Labrousse Loïc
Published: June 2021

Abstract. Back-arc extension superimposed on mountain belts leads to
distributed normal faults and shear zones interacting with magma emplacement
within the crust. The composition of granitic magmas emplaced at this stage
often involves a large component of crustal melting. The Miocene Aegean
granitoids were emplaced in metamorphic core complexes (MCCs) below
crustal-scale low-angle normal faults and ductile shear zones. Intrusion
processes interact with extension and shear along detachments, from the hot
magmatic flow within the pluton root zone to the colder ductile and brittle
deformation below and along the detachment. A comparison of the Aegean
plutons with the island of Elba MCC in the back-arc region of the Apennine
subduction shows that these processes are characteristic of
pluton–detachment interactions in general. We discuss a conceptual
emplacement model, tested by numerical models. Mafic injections within the
partially molten lower crust above the hot asthenosphere trigger the ascent
within the core of the MCC of felsic magmas, controlled by the strain
localization on persistent crustal-scale shear zones at the top that guide
the ascent until the brittle ductile transition. Once the system definitely
enters the brittle regime, the detachment and the upper crust are intruded,
while new detachments migrate upward and in the direction of shearing.
Seismicity and seismotectonics of the Albstadt Shear Zone in the northern Alpine foreland
Authors: Mader Sarah , Ritter Joachim R. R. , Reicherter Klaus ,   the AlpArray Working Group
Published: June 2021

Abstract. The region around the town Albstadt, SW Germany, was
struck by four damaging earthquakes with magnitudes greater than 5 during
the last century. These earthquakes occurred along the Albstadt Shear Zone
(ASZ), which is characterized by more or less continuous microseismicity. As
there are no visible surface ruptures that may be connected to the fault
zone, we study its characteristics by its seismicity distribution and
faulting pattern. We use the earthquake data of the state earthquake service
of Baden-Württemberg from 2011 to 2018 and complement it with additional
phase picks beginning in 2016 at the AlpArray and StressTransfer seismic
networks in the vicinity of the ASZ. This extended data set is used to
determine new minimum 1-D seismic vp and vs velocity models and corresponding
station delay times for earthquake relocation. Fault plane solutions are
determined for selected events, and the principal stress directions are
derived. The minimum 1-D seismic velocity models have a simple and stable layering
with increasing velocity with depth in the upper crust. The corresponding
station delay times can be explained well by the lateral depth variation of
the crystalline basement. The relocated events align about north–south with
most of the seismic activity between the towns of Tübingen and Albstadt,
east of the 9∘ E meridian. The events can be separated into
several subclusters that indicate a segmentation of the ASZ. The majority
of the 25 determined fault plane solutions feature an NNE–SSW strike but
NNW–SSE-striking fault planes are also observed. The main fault plane associated
with the ASZ dips steeply, and the rake indicates mainly sinistral
strike-slip, but we also find minor components of normal and reverse
faulting. The determined direction of the maximum horizontal stress of
140–149∘ is in good agreement with prior studies. Down to ca. 7–8 km depth SHmax is bigger than SV; below this depth, SV is the main stress
component. The direction of SHmax indicates that the stress field in
the area of the ASZ is mainly generated by the regional plate driving forces
and the Alpine topography.

Experience and current state of use of the multi-tiered tuyeres in the oxygen-converter craft-shops of Ukraine
Authors: Yushkevich P.O.
Published: June 2021

To date, the most common in the oxygen-converter shops of metallurgical enterprises of Ukraine is the top purge using single-tier lances. Therefore, it is important to conduct research to improve the design of lances. The article is devoted to the results of the study of the use of multilevel lances. For the first time the main stages of development and use of multilevel lances in oxygen-converter shops of metallurgical enterprises of Ukraine from the moment of their origin to the present time are fully described. The first constructions of two-tier and three-tier structures of lances, which passed industrial or experimental tests in Ukraine, were developed at the Institute of Ferrous Metallurgy of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. It is shown that multilevel lances in oxygen-converter shops of metallurgical enterprises of Ukraine have repeatedly demonstrated the feasibility and effectiveness of their use, compared with the classic designs of single-storey lances. But due to the difficult economic situation in the metallurgical industry, the use of such lances was stopped. It is established in the work that the use of multi-level lances allows: to increase the number of control actions on the purge and thus stabilize the development of physicochemical processes, the calm purge; to improve the heat balance of converter smelting; to increase the rate of afterburning of CO to CO2; provide, if necessary, simultaneous purging with two types of gases; increase the amount of scrap metal in the filling, lime, fluorspar, sinter and chromium ore, without the use of additional energy; reduce the intensity of sweeping of lance and oxygen-converter equipment. Studies have shown that the shortcomings in the process of industrial operation of multi-layered lances are primarily due to the imperfection of empirically designed structures. The ways of elimination of shortcomings of multilevel lances due to development of a rational design and the corresponding technique of calculation of its basic constructive parameters are shown.

The aim of the work was to study the nature and peculiarities of the interaction of the lance of the converter lance flowing from the folded nozzles with a liquid bath of single-phase liquid. The study was conducted on the basis of a physical model of the converter with top purge. The design of a folded nozzle consisting of a central cylindrical nozzle and a slit annular nozzle located around it is investigated. A visual and video recording comparative study in comparable operating conditions of the folded nozzle with different design features, in particular, with an additionally deepened central nozzle in the folded nozzle and a protruding central nozzle; with operation of one cylindrical nozzle, four nozzles of identical section and an annular slot nozzle. It is established that the jet flowing from the folded nozzle differs in the possibility of more active interaction with the liquid bath than one cylindrical nozzle and four nozzles of equivalent plane. The depth of penetration of the jet into the bath liquid, the parameters of the formed hole of the jet penetration, the oscillations of the bath were studied. It is established that the peculiarities of crater formation in the liquid, characteristic when using a folded nozzle, are due to the use of a slotted annular part of the nozzle. The wider crater is due to the use of a slotted annular part of the nozzle. It is shown that the structural variants of the folded nozzle with a recessed or protruding central nozzle do not increase either the depth or the width of the formed crater. It is also established that the peculiarities of crater formation in the liquid when using a folded nozzle are due to the use of a slotted annular part of the nozzle. To form the best purge conditions, the slice of the slotted annular part should be flush with the slice of the central nozzle. With this design, the jet pulse is maintained for a longer period compared to the use of only one central nozzle, probably due to the protection of the central jet, and due to its deep penetration properties.

The necessity of an integrated approach in assessing and choosing a technology for secondary desulfurization of cast iron has been substantiated. It is shown that one of the main parameters and indicators is the consumption of the reagent, which determines all the main indicators of the process. A comparative analysis of the indicators in Table 1 also indicates that in the KR process, an increase in the mass of pig iron in the ladle reduces the desulfurization efficiency, since the transition from a ladle with a mass of 80 and 100 tons of pig iron to large ladles (260 tons) is accompanied by a decrease in the specific degree of desulfurization, removal increases the consumption of the reagent per unit of sulfur removed. Significant specific consumption of reagents (up to 8-17 kg / t of cast iron) and the duration of mixing (up to 8-20 minutes), as well as the cycle - up to 25-68 minutes, which causes tangible losses in the temperature of the cast iron - on average 40-42 ° С, and in a number of desulfurization modes - up to 92-128 °С. This is due to the fact that with an increase in the mass of cast iron, the mass transfer processes between the slag and the molten iron of the ladle deteriorate. The highest specific consumption of reagents in the KR-process ultimately determined the highest costs in the implementation of this process. The lowest specific costs for monoinjection of magnesium predetermine the lowest costs for the industrial development of this process. Actual indicators of industrial blowdowns indicate ohm. that monoinjection of granular magnesium is characterized by the lowest consumption of reagents - on average 0.42-0.55 kg / t of cast iron, the shortest duration of the desulfurization operation - on average 5.5-7.7 minutes and at the same time providing up to super deep desulfurization of cast iron - up to 0.0003–0.001%, desulfurization degree - up to 99%, high sulfur removal rate - on average 12–14.4% / min, high reagent assimilation rate - on average 75–92%. The actual data on the technology applied KR-processes (CaO + CaF2), co-injection of lime with magnesium (CaO + Mg) and monoinjection of granular magnesium according to the Ukrainian injection technology are presented. The costs of desulfurization by KR processes - koninjection - monoinjection are in the ratio 3: 2: 1. The advantage of injection processes of cast iron desulfurization has been substantiated.

The efficiency of using three-phase asynchronous electric motors with a squirrel-cage rotor in the transport sector depends on increasing the level of their reliability, which is possible due to the constant improvement of existing and the development of new diagnostic methods of high reliability. The most labor-consuming and difficult is the possibility of diagnostics and differentiation of turn-to-turn closures of the stator winding. The aim of the work is to establish the nature of the manifestation, influence on energy indicators and determine the diagnostic parameters of turn-to-turn closures on one and simultaneously on two phases of the stator winding of an induction motor using mathematical modeling methods. This goal was achieved through a set of studies using a refined mathematical model of an asynchronous motor, which allows you to create asymmetry of the stator windings, simulate turn-to-turn connections on one phase and simultaneously on two phases in various combinations. The most significant result of the work is the establishment of the dependences of the pulsations of the electromagnetic moment, the unbalance coefficient of the stator phase currents and the energy characteristics from the turn-to-turn short-circuits of the phases of the stator windings. The significance of the results obtained consists in establishing the dependences of the manifestation of various types of damage to the phases of the stator winding necessary for choosing a method for diagnosing turn-to-turn faults in the stator windings when building an effective diagnostic system for asynchronous motors as part of transport infrastructure drives.

During operation of the transformer, the oil in it undergoes profound changes usually referred to as aging. The electrical insulating properties of it deteriorate, and sediments accumulate on the active part, which makes it difficult to remove heat. Inhomogeneous solid formations can induce not only the voltage breakdown, but also impair the parameters such as viscosity and other char-acteristics of the oil, which are important for the reliable operation of the power transformers. Aromatic groups initially is present in the transformer oil composition during the operation of the oil, and because of the aging processes, the concentration of the unsaturated cyclic com-pounds increases. The aim of this work is to develop a new method for the determination of the aromatic compounds and colloidal particles. This goal is achieved using a visual inspection of the transformer oil samples in the visible range. The most significant result of the paper is the establishment of a correlation between the acid number of the transformer oil (KOH), the tan-gent of the dielectric loss angle and the type of oil image under the visible light illumination. The significance of the obtained results lies in the fact that the presented method based on the analy-sis of the scattered and transmitted radiation, makes it possible to determine the presence of the aromatic compounds and colloidal particles in the transformer oil, as well as to define their con-centration and size. This method simplifies the analysis of the transformer oil quality, and re-duces the cost of the research, which is an important factor for the electric power industry.

An integral part of any open-type gas turbine plant is a low-emission combustion chamber, which is usually two-zone and cooled. One of the ways to reduce emission of harmful substanc-es is organizing low-emission low-temperature lean combustion with external heating of compo-nents. This paper investigates the effect of external heating of air and fuel gas on expansion of the lower combustion limit and stable flame position in a single-zone uncooled combustion chamber of a microgas turbine power plant. Stable position of the flame front in combustion chambers of this type mainly depends on the ratio between the average flow rate of the combus-tible-air mixture and the rate of turbulent combustion. This ratio depends on thermal, gas-dynamic, thermochemical and geometric factors. The purpose of this work is to substantiate the possibility of using the relative flow rate as a generalized characteristic. This goal was achieved in processing a large amount of published experimental data and numerical modeling of low-temperature combustion of lean mixtures. The most significant research result is determination of the range of relative flow rate (gk = 0.3…3.5·10-4 kg⁄s∙N), at which it is possible to ensure sta-ble flame position in a single-zone combustion chamber. Significance of the obtained results lies in the fact that using the relative flow rate makes it possible to quickly determine and analyze the geometric and gas-dynamic parameters and characteristics of turbulent combustion in com-bustion chambers of micro-gas turbine power plants.
