Theoretical Study of Force Parameters of Drawing in a Roller Matrix
Authors:   Georgian Technical University, Mebonia Slava , Lomsadze Zurab ,   Georgian Technical University, Shermaznashvili Aleksandre ,   R. Dvali Institute of Machine Mechanics
Published: September 2024

Drawing is a process of metal pressure treatment, which involves dragging the workpiece through a narrowing hole, the dimensions of which are smaller than the cross-sectional dimensions of the workpiece. Blow molding is an effective method of plastic processing of metals, which is widely used in the production of rods, wires, pipes and other long products. Force factors acting in the process of drawing in rolling matrices are discussed, specifically, drawing stresses and contact pressure. As a result of the theoretical study, the relationship between the drawing stresses and the deformation parameters under different contact friction conditions has been established, which allows us to select the optimal values of the degree of deformation and the stretching coefficient, which are required to obtain wire from a small-diameter rod roll. Based on the solution of the differential equation of the specific pressures acting in the rolling matrices, calculation formulas for the determination of the specific stresses and contact pressure have been obtained. The results of the calculations are given in the form of tables and graphs. From the results of the theoretical research, it is clear that the drawing stresses at high values of the stretch coefficient is higher than the yield point of the material, which is why the stretch coefficient should not be more than (1.4 – 1.5).

Authors:   Georgian Technical University, Isakadze Tamaz , Lazarashvili Zurab ,   Georgian Technical University, Gugulashvili Givi ,   Georgian Technical University
Published: September 2024

A new design of a tube-in-tube type heat exchanger is presented, in which one of the liquids participating in heat exchange, in the process of moving along the outer tube, acts on the outer blades of the heat exchange amplifier and thereby ensures the rotation of the inner blades of the same amplifier, located in the pipeline of another fluid, completely isolated from the first one, ensuring its movement. The movement of the blades of the same amplifier in different fluids causes significant turbulence and an increase in the efficiency of heat transfer. The operation of the device is possible using only one pump to move the liquid. The movement of the second fluid along its own pipe is ensured by the impact of the first liquid on the blades of the heat exchange amplifier when it moves along its own pipe.

Published: September 2024

The scope of application of the Voronoi diagram is quite diverse: artificial intelligence, urban systems, marketing, computer science and others. This is because the so-called spatial relationships are effectively solved using a Voronoi diagram. The classical Voronoi diagram method assumes homogeneity of objects, which, obviously, is far from reality and therefore limits not only the scope of its application, but also its possibilities. When adding potential power about objects, a potential scheme is added to the traditional Voronoi diagram, after which the modified Voronoi method additionally acquires the functions of optimal planning of the urban system, economic space, finding a safe path, etc. The article presents a method for constructing a modified Voronoi diagram and discusses algorithms for its practical use.

Authors:   Georgian Technical University, Tkabladze Zviad
Published: September 2024

One of the Qatar’s “soft power” policy instruments is the Al-Jazeera TV company, used by the State to promote national interests. In a relatively short period of time, Qatar was able not only to overcome its geographical and demographic limitations, but also to achieve resonant successes both at the regional and international levels, securing its status as an influential player on a global scale. And using the example of Al-Jazeera, indicators are given that prove the effectiveness of using such a strategy to increase influence on the public abroad. The purpose of the study is to formulate the essence and identify the key components of the “soft power” of the Qatar mass media, which served as the basis for the effective implementation of the ambitious strategies of the small monarchy. At the same time, special attention is paid, with the help of Al-Jazeera, to Qatar’s promotion of its image as a progressive and modern state, a useful military-political partner, a reliable supplier of energy resources, a soughtafter international mediator, a donor of humanitarian aid and an influential investor, as well as an educational, cultural, transport, financial and a tourist center.
Geopolitical Function and Purpose of the Middle Corridor: Transcontinental Trade-economic Corridor Between Europe and Asia
Authors:   Georgian Technical University, Modebadze Valeri
Published: September 2024

Trade and commercial activities between Europe and Asia can be carried out through three main routes: The Northern Corridor, the Southern Corridor and the Middle Corridor. The Northern Corridor passes through Russian territory, while the Southern Corridor is a sea route that connects China to Europe. The Middle Corridor is a newer route that follows the old Silk Road and crosses the Central Asian Republics, the Caucasus and Turkey. The study aimed to analyze the geopolitical role of the Middle Corridor, particularly following the onset of the Ukraine war. Research findings indicated that the strategic importance of this corridor significantly rose after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The West is now shifting away from the Northern Corridor and channeling heavy investments towards the development of the Middle Corridor. Europeans are viewing the Middle Corridor as a viable alternative to the Northern route. However, substantial infrastructure investments are crucial to enhance the corridor's capacity and potential. Collaboration among Middle Corridor countries is essential for the development of transportation and communication infrastructure. With proper investments, the corridor has the potential to emerge as a key trade route connecting Europe and Asia.

Authors:   Georgian Technical University, Tsatsanashvili Mariam , Tabatadze Sulkhan ,   Georgian Technical University
Published: September 2024

Algorithmic bias and the potential violation of ethical norms in search engine optimization (SEO) pose challenges in how public administrations disseminate digital services and online information. Traditional Search Engine Optimization approaches are no longer yielding significant results. Therefore, a new approach is proposed: using a cognitive map for virtual promotion to analyze situations and automate decision-making processes. The efficacy of this method is underscored by experimental results conducted with LTD ‘MyMakulatura’. The company's website achieved the top ranking in the search field within seven months, in accordance with the proposed approach. Simultaneously, there has been an increase in interaction between the search engine and services. This has led to the identification of opportunities to enhance transparency in ethical considerations, conduct rigorous privacy testing, continuously monitor performance, and improve algorithmic decision-making processes.

This study focused on characterizing synthetic magnetite (Fe3O4-NP) and evaluating the impregnated jabon wood’s physical properties. The co-precipitation method used for the synthesis of Fe3O4-NP, namely by mixing the iron solution (n/n Fe2+:Fe3+=1:2) with the strong base of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) (MG-S) and weak base of ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) (MG-W) as precursors. The impregnation stage uses parameters of a -0.5 bar vacuum for half an hour and 2 bar pressure for 2 hours with magnetite concentrations of 1; 2.5; 5% w/v in a demineralized water solvent. Scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX) and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR) confirmed the presence of Ferrum content and Fe-O functional group in both Fe3O4-NPs produced. The Fe3O4-NP size was also measured via the X-ray diffraction analysis, namely 34.54 nm for the MG-S and 39.24 nm for the MG-W. Magnetic strength obtained was 7.51 mT for the MG-S and 8.58 mT for the MG-W. The impregnated jabon wood’s physical properties also improved with indications of an increase in wood density, weight percent gain (WPG), bulking effect (BE), anti-swelling efficiency (ASE), and a decrease in water absorption (WA). The results showed the best treatments were MG-S 2.5% and MG-W 5%.

Published: September 2024

The Niger Delta Region has a lot of water, but due to pollution, most of it is not useable for domestic purposes (such as cooking and drinking). The alternative to surface water that forms the aquifer is either polluted or too expensive to construct, especially since the devaluation of the Naira. This leaves the locals in most towns with rainwater as an option and Ughelli is no exception. Rainwater therefore is a veritable option for domestic use. This study assesses the quality of harvested rainwater from different roof types within the urban areas of Ughelli, Delta State, Nigeria. The study deploys the cross-sectional design and a total of 43 samples for each roof-types were collected in the peak rainfall months of June, July and August. After collection, the water samples were kept in the refrigerator at 0.40C for preservation and sent to the laboratory for analysis. The results of the rainwater physicochemical properties were compared with World Health Organization (WHO) standards, while ANOVA was used to determine the variation in the quality of rainwater in the different roof-types. Results showed that the water samples were safe for all characteristics except for Lead Iron and Zinc; although different in quality at p<0.05 (F- 9.104; Sig-0.000). The study therefore recommends the need to remove suspended impurities from rainwater through the addition of a required amount of aluminum sulphate.

Introduction: appendicitis is distinguished by inflammation of the vermiform appendix and usually shows acutely within the first 24 hours. Acute appendicitis is the main source of abdominal surgery in children and the most common abdominal surgical emergency around the globe.
Objective: to detail the current information related to acute appendicitis, etiology, epidemiology, pathophysiology, histopathology, anamnesis, physical examination, evaluation, treatment and complications of the disease.
Methodology: a total of 37 articles were analyzed in this review, including review and original articles, as well as clinical cases, of which 25 bibliographies were used because the other articles were not relevant for this study. The sources of information were PubMed, Google Scholar and Cochrane; the terms used to search for information in Spanish, Portuguese and English were: acute appendicitis, abdominal pain, appendix, abdominal surgery, acute abdominal treatment.
Results: appendectomy by open laparotomy or laparoscopy is the standard treatment for acute appendicitis, however, intravenous antibiotics are exceptionally considered as first line therapy in individuals. The incidence of acute appendicitis varies from 100 to 223 new cases per 100,000 people per year. This disease can occur at any age, however it is most commonly seen in the age range of 5 to 45 years. The lifetime incidence of acute appendicitis is 8.6% in men and 6.7% in women. The risk of appendiceal rupture may vary with 2% of cases being frequently perforated 36 hours after the onset of symptoms.
Conclusions: It is of vital importance to recognize the etiology, epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical picture and tests that support the diagnostic decision in any case of acute abdomen, especially in cases of acute appendicitis, because an accurate diagnosis will lead us to a rapid intervention, adequate treatment, reducing the risk of mortality and the risk of potential complications in the affected individual. Diagnostic tests and scales play an important role in the diagnosis. The efficacy of antibiotics as primary treatment for uncomplicated acute appendicitis has been extensively investigated, with conflicting and mixed results and conclusions. Comparing the results between individuals who underwent laparoscopic appendectomy and those who underwent open appendectomy, the former group showed a lower incidence of wound infection, a lower level of postoperative analgesic requirement and shorter postoperative hospital stays in the former group, with the main disadvantage being the longer operative time.
KEY WORDS: appendicitis, pain, appendix, surgery.
