Impacto del diámetro en la distribución de la presión alrededor de una elipse en un arreglo de barras cilíndricas paralelas para diferentes ángulos de inclinación respecto a un flujo de aire en un canal rectangular
Authors: Ferrari Hernán , Marino Raúl , Herrero Víctor
Published: December 2021

Se realizó el estudio experimental de la distribución de presión alrededor de un obstáculo formado por cuatro tubos cilíndricos de tres diámetros diferentes inmerso en un flujo transversal y a distintos ángulos de inclinación respecto al flujo. Se utilizó aire a presión atmosférica con flujo máximo de 0.038 kg/seg. Para cada diámetro y separación entre cilindros, la distribución de presión alrededor del obstáculo está fuertemente influenciado por el ángulo de inclinación, pero solo marginalmente afectado por el caudal (dentro del rango de trabajo). Debido a la condición de turbulencia del flujo de aire, con un número de Reynolds en la separación entre barras de 1695 a 5100, se obtuvo una muy buena concordancia entre los resultados experimentales y un modelo basado en la velocidad media del aire en ese espacio, mejor que un modelo basado en la curvatura de las líneas de corriente.

FEATURES OF FOREIGN INVESTMENT IN THE SERVICE SPHERE IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION
Authors:   Saint-Petersburg State University of Aerospace Instrumentation, St. Petersburg, Russia, Pokshivanova Olga P.
Published: December 2021

Attracting foreign investment to the Russian service sector in 2021 is not an easy task. It is neces-sary to take into account the peculiarities of the structure and dynamics of the distribution of foreign investment within the tertiary sector. The Russian Federation is lagging behind in attracting investment in industries such as business services, computers, telecommunications and human capital. The state must determine the necessary balance between the liberalization of the service sector and the density of protectionism in the same area. The legislation in force should be taken into account and compared with the practice of neighboring countries.

WASTE MANAGEMENT IN EUROPEAN UNION COUNTRIES: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES
Authors:   Institute of Economic Problems, Federal Research Center ", Ivanova Lyudmila V. ,   Kola Scientific Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences",   , Apatity, Russia
Published: December 2021

Numerous specialized and unauthorized landfills and huge volumes of waste are a serious problem for the use of minerals. The country's system of solid waste management, based on burial, incinera-tion, partial processing, does not fully comply with the climatic and socio-economic characteristics of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. Russia is one of eight members of the Arctic Council, international organizations promoting development of cooperation in the field of environmental protection and sustainable develop-ment of circumpolar areas. In 2001, the Arctic Council approved an Action Plan for the elimination of pollution in the Arctic. For the implementation of the Plan, a specially created expert group on waste supports and oversees pilot projects demonstrating environmentally friendly waste management in the Arctic. Waste dis-posal methods that do not meet environmental standards can contribute to soil, water and air pollution through toxic emissions. Improper waste management can also lead to transboundary emissions. While there is clear progress in this direction in Europe due to the implementation of effective public policies on waste and a focus on the transition to a circular economy, significant amounts of valuable resources remain untapped as a result of ineffective waste management in practice.

The article examines the development trends of models of trade, investment and economic integration in the region in Southeast Asia and the post-Soviet space. Particular attention is paid to new trends in the escalation of multilateral trade agreements. Such agreements, which previously used the WTO platform, are increasingly beginning to act as its alternative. In this regard, the issues of mutual influence of participants due to the development of trade, investment activity, the location of production of TNCs, the optimization of economic activities in the light of digitalization, the development of e-commerce, logistics, banking technolo-gies are increasingly regulated by mega-regional agreements. The complex activity of overcoming trade bar-riers by such different countries within the framework of the mega-agreement and their readiness to consist-ently increase the level of trade and investment interaction between the participants are undoubtedly one of the features of modern Asia-Pacific regionalism. As the largest trade and integration bloc in the post-Soviet space, the EAEU is becoming a platform for promoting the geopolitical and economic interests of its members in the foreign policy space. Currently, the EAEU is the only functioning integration association promoting the interests of the union with third countries, including in the East Asian direction.

Published: December 2021

The globalization of the world economy causes the active development of foreign economic activity. In these conditions, the key factor in the development of economic entities is their ability to integrate into global economic ties. The new conditions require the training of qualitatively different specialists capable of ensuring the entry of economic entities into the markets of foreign states. In the context of the integration of the Russian economy with the economy of a number of countries within the Eurasian Economic Union, the need for specialists who know the market of the EAEU countries is significantly increasing. The training of such personnel is possible only within the framework of the network interaction of universities of the EAEU countries implementing part of the educational program. At the same time, it is important to note that such an approach to the implementation of educational programs becomes a factor in the development of education exports. The article presents the experience of Altai State University in the implementation of such interaction with a foreign university.

Hydrometeorological Research and Forecasting, 2021, no. 4 (382), pp. 112-133. The results of analytical studies are presented, which show that restrictive measures for reduction of SARS-CoV-2 propagation speed and the incidence of the COVID-19 pandemic on the territory of Western Europe and the Russian Federation have led to a significant reduction of anthropogenic load on the natural environment and a considerable improvement of environmental conditions for the main types of contaminants. At the same time there is a dramatic growth of total ozone in the troposphere during the period of restrictions almost for all studied territories. It is revealed that after finishing the restrictive measures the level of air contamination reached its initial point: by September in Western Europe and by October in the European part of Russia. The calculations demonstrated that poor air quality aggravates the consequences of COVID-19, and a significant contribution is made by the PM2.5 concentration of fine solid particles, which can penetrate deeper into the human lungs and exacerbate the course of respiratory diseases. Keywords: COVID-19, ecology, tropospheric conditions, satellite information, morbidity level and air quality

Published: December 2021

An attempt is made to develop a method for long-term forecasting of the ice breakup time for the Vyatka River basin, to identify the impact of the distribution of sea surface temperature and geopotential height in the informative regions at the levels H100 and H500 over the Northern Hemisphere on the river ice breakup. The location and boundaries of the informative regions in the fields of H100 and H500 were revealed by the discriminant analysis, the EOF expansion coefficients of the fields of anomalies of monthly mean values of H100 and H500 for January and February and the anomalies of monthly mean sea surface temperature in the North Atlantic and Northwest Pacific were used as potential predictors. The stepwise regression analysis allowed deriving good and satisfactory (S/σ = 0.45–0.73) complex prognostic equations for forecasting the ice breakup time for the Vyatka River basin. The essential influence of H100 and H500 geopotential height fields and the spatial distribution of sea surface temperature anomalies in the North Atlantic and Northwest Pacific in January and February on the river ice breakup time is revealed. It is proposed to improve the method by considering the impact of air temperature, maximum ice thickness per winter, and other indirect characteristics on the processes of river ice breakup in the Vyatka River basin. Keywords: ice regime, long-range forecast, river ice breakup, expansion coefficients, geopotential height fields, spring ice phenomena, energy-active zones of the oceans, complex prognostic equation

Measuring the Audience Experience at the Jazzaldia Festival, San Sebastian, Spain
Authors: Bakić Sonja , Cuenca Jaimea , Cuenca-Amigo Macarena
Published: December 2021

Audience research in the cultural sector has been increasingly gaining the attention of researchers and practitioners. This article explores audience experience as an interactive cocreated process between audiences and the program offer in the jazz festival context. As a result of this
interaction, each such experience is unique, and the perceived value differs from one to the other. Inspired by previous research on audience experience in the field of theater performances and musicals, we applied the Art Audience Experience Index to the context of jazz festivals, in this
case, a well-established and successful Basque festival: Jazzaldia Festival, San Sebastián (Spain). The Index measures four indicators: Knowledge, Risk, Authenticity, and Collective Engagement. These were utilized to identify cocreation links between festival setting features (paid
vs. free admission and indoor vs. outdoor venue) and audience profiles (education level and music background). The results are obtained from 406 valid questionnaires and reveal the importance audiences give to their live music experience in general, and their satisfaction with jazz concerts
in relation to festival concerts' admission, type of venue, participants' educational level, and music background. This study contributes to the body of knowledge on audience experience in jazz festivals by employing a tested methodological tool that has not been previously applied in the
concert or festival setting. Furthermore, our work may help cultural managers acquaint themselves with their audiences to a greater extent, and incite reflection on interventions that might enhance the experience of their audiences.
On Modelling the Structural Quasiness of Complex Systems
Authors: Minati Gianfranco
Published: December 2021

Complex systems are usually represented by invariant models which at most admit only parametric variations. This approach assumes invariant idealized simplifications to model these systems. This standard approach is considered omitting crucial features of phenomenological interaction mechanisms related to processes of emergence of such systems. The quasiness of the structural dynamics that generate emergence of complex systems is considered as the main feature. Generation achieved through prevalently coherent sequences and combinations of interactions. Quasiness (dynamics of loss and recovery, equivalences, inhomogeneity, multiplicity, non-regularity, and partiality) represents the incompleteness of the interaction mechanisms, incompleteness necessary even if not sufficient for the establishment of processes of emergence. The emergence is extinguished by completeness. Complex systems possess local coherences corresponding to the phenomenological complexity. While quasi-systems are not necessarily complex systems, complex systems are considered quasi-systems, being not always systems, not always the same system, and not only systems. It is addressed the problem of representing the quasiness of coherence (quasicoherence), such as the ability to recover and tolerate temporary levels of incoherence. The main results of the study focus on research approaches to model quasicoherence through the changing of rules in models of emergence. It is presented a version of standard analytical approaches compatible with quasiness of systemic emergence and related mathematical issues. The same approach is considered for networks, artificial neural networks, and it is introduced the concept of quasification for fixed models. Finally, it is considered that suitable representations of structural dynamics and its quasiness are needed to model, simulate, and adopt effective interventions on emergence of complex systems.

Статья посвящена исследованию изменения заквасочного микробиома в процессе длительного ведения заквасок. Целью работы являлось изучение изменения таксономической структуры микробиома жидкой ржаной закваски без заварки в процессе длительного ведения и их влияние нафизико-химические и микробиологические показатели качества закваски. Исследования проводились в Санкт-Петербургском филиале ФГАНУ НИИХП при поддержке фонда РФФИ (проект № 19–016–00085 «Исследование видового разнообразия и симбиотических взаимодействий в микробиомах крахмало-белковых гидроколлоидных систем (хлебных заквасок)». Объектом исследования являлась жидкая ржаная закваска без заварки, которую вели в лабораторных условиях в течение двух месяцев. В разводочном цикле для выведения закваски применяли чистые культуры молочнокислых бактерий Limosilactobacillus fermentum 34, Lentilactobacillus parabuchneri 26 и Lentilactobacillus parabuchneri 30, L.plantarum 1 и дрожжей S.cerevisiae Л 1, C.milleri Чернореченский. Показано, что применение чистых культур заквасочных микроорганизмов в технологии жидкой ржаной закваски без заварки приводит к доминированию лактобацилл и дрожжей и получению закваски с хорошими биотехнологическими показателями уже в первой фазе разводочного цикла. Однако при длительном ведении закваски происходят изменения таксономической структуры микробиома. Так, через месяц ведения начинают доминировать виды молочнокислых бактерий рода Lactobacillus, отличные от вносимых в I фазу разводочного цикла, и дрожжи вида C.milleri. Установлено, что такое изменение микробного состава закваски оказывает влияние на физико-химические показатели качества закваски.

Authors: Spann Martina , Torrego Seijo Juan Carlos , Monge López Carlos
Published: December 2021

There is common understanding among the member states of the UN on Human and Children’s Rights and that everyone has a right to life, liberty, and security of person. Children are entitled to special care. Social changes caused by migration or armed conflicts affect families and may have negative consequences on children’s welfare. Violent family structures are often transported into the schools. Evidence on school mediation and conflict resolution programs between peers seems to be a good method to teach children how to resolve conflicts peacefully. This paper also researches how such programs can contribute to a more conflict-free society.

Authors: Pavlova M. O. , Zakharov V. A. , Kushnir S. V. , Pavlenko M. N.
Published: December 2021

The article presents the results of laboratory tests of experimental samples for mechanical safety, aimed at obtaining data pertaining to the performance of protective and decorative brick facade structures on metal substructures. The designs of the samples are atypical, with a different arrangement of bricks in the face layer and with ledges evenly distributed over the surface of the sample. Based on the test results, structure behavior under load, the absolute values of the displacement of the cladding layer, and the values of the bond strength between bricks and mortar were established. During the tests, the displacement of the protective and decorative structure in the direction of the applied load and the values of the forces, corresponding to the strength limit, were recorded.

The article addresses the issue of the lack of rules for the design and testing of suspended facade systems made of bricks on metal substructures in the regulatory and technical documentation of the Russian Federation.

Authors: Figueiredo E. , Smith G.F.
Published: December 2021

Southern Africa is globally known for its considerable floristic diversity and for the past several centuries the region has attracted the research attention of both foreign and southern African botanists. While the majority of the plant scientists, including taxonomists, working on
the regional flora was male, women have made significant contributions to the botany of southern Africa. We provide a comprehensive review of the role women played in botany in the region, from the earliest days of recorded botanical endeavour (c. mid-17th century) and for the ensuing c. 300
years. The women are exhaustively catalogued and the parts they played in advancing botany, and where appropriate some related plant-based activities, such as horticulture, are noted and assessed. It is shown that women played an important but generally underappreciated role in botanical research,
fieldwork, and specimen collecting, as well as in herbarium management and institutional development.
Terrorism and Tourism
Authors: Göktuğ Kaya Mustafa , Onifade Stephen Taiwo , Akpınar Ayhan
Published: December 2021

The booming tourism sector in Turkey has resulted in major economic gains in terms
of direct revenues to both government and private sectors alike. Turkey had more than 45 million visits in 2018, and top inbound arrivals were from Russia and European Union (EU) members, such as Germany, the United Kingdom, and Bulgaria, among others (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development [OECD], 2020). However, terrorism is becoming a challenge to tourism development. This study explores terrorism–tourism dynamics in Turkey. The short- and long-run impacts of terror attacks on tourism revenues were examined within the framework of an autoregressive lag (ARDL) model using monthly data for the period between 2012 and 2018. The empirical findings did not support terrorism's effects on tourism revenues. However, in the long run, terror-related casualties and fatalities on
tourism revenues had different effects. The findings affirm that the casualty rate has a stronger impact on terrorism–tourism dynamics in Turkey because a 1% increase in reported injuries from terror attacks hampers revenues by approximately 0.1%. Hence, adequate and continuous support for general security establishments is imperative while strengthening commitments to the international cooperation on the war against
terrorism to proactively contain the undesirable impacts of terrorism in the
Turkish tourism industry,
Assessment of tribotechnical properties and resistance to wear of plasma coatings
Authors: Tokarev Alexandr O. , Makagon Lyubov D. Makagon
Published: December 2021

In order to determine the operating conditions of parts for which restoration of worn surfaces is acceptable by the method of plasma spraying of various powder alloys, contact fatigue tests were carried out under cyclic contact impulse loading. In addition, tribotechnical tests were carried out with various wear-resistant coatings under conditions of liquid sliding friction.

Bench and operational tests showed the use of coatings obtained using modern plasma technologies, the feasibility of protecting parts operating in conditions of corrosion, waterjet and cavitation wear, as well as in sliding friction.

The coating sprayed with Ni-Al intermetallic alloy powder provides the most reliable protection against shock cyclic impact and abrasion during liquid friction than other materials studied.

Coating with wear-resistant self-fluxing powder Ni-Cr-B-Si-C alloy, hardened by solid carboboride phases, without its additional heat treatment for restoration of surfaces working in sliding friction pairs, is not recommended.

If there is a need to operate a marine diesel engine in conditions different from those established by the manufacturer, diagnostics allows you to predict the temporary operational characteristics
When Gur class markers are absent: suffix omission in Natioro
Authors: Dyachkov Vadim
Published: December 2021

The paper deals with the morphology of class marking in Natioro, an underdescribed Gur language spoken in several villages of Burkina Faso. In Natioro, class markers (which are a typical feature of Gur languages) are frequently omitted in many contexts, such as genitive constructions, as well as NPs modified by adjectives, numerals, and quantifiers. In the paper, I will focus on the morphological (rather than semantic) properties of these constructions. I will show that noun stems occurring in constructions with omitted class markers can be regarded as instances of incorporation. Particular attention will be given to adjectival incorporation. In Natioro, there are two types of adjectival constructions, which can be distinguished by the nature of the stems involved. I will argue that some of the incorporated constructions are derived by merging a noun with a non-inflected adjective, whereas others can be regarded as full-fledged adjectives that incorporate noun stems. Some parallels between the constructions of the latter type and constructions with relational nouns are discussed as well.

Authors: Ivanova Margarita
Published: December 2021

Vowel harmony based on the advanced tongue root (±ATR) feature is a well-known attribute of the languages of the Macro-Sudan belt. Igbo (< Benue-Congo), one of these languages, on basis of which first instrumental studies of ±ATR articulation were conducted, has an asymmetric vowel system /i, ɪ, e, a, ɔ, o, ʊ, u/, so that root ±ATR harmony exists within three pairs and a single vowel /e/. This paper describes an acoustic realization of ±ATR in Igbo. According to the hypothesis that the value of the first formant in combination with the distribution of energy over the spectrum combine into a single perceptual cue that allows to distinguish vowels opposed by ±ATR we investigate (along with the description of the formant space) three spectral parameters that were shown to be acoustic correlates of ±ATR in other Macro-Sudan languages. The results of the instrumental analysis indicate that acoustic correlates of ±ATR harmony in Igbo are the value of the first formant, its bandwidth and normalized center of gravity. In addition, all parameters relevant for the ±ATR contrast in our data divided /ɔ/ utterances in different roots into two groups with contrasting values of the feature.

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) in the diagnosis and follow-up of Crohn’s Disease. Material and Methot: Between November 2013 and April 2014, patients who were MRE examinations for a preliminary or definitive diagnosis of Crohn’s Disease were reviewed retrospectively. MRE imaging of the patients was performed on an 8-channel 1.5 Tesla MRI device. Primary and secondary MRE results and contrast enhancement patterns of active and chronic inflammation of Crohn’s disease in jejunum, ileum, terminal ileum, and colon segments were evaluated by two radiologists. Results: The results consistent with Crohn’s Disease were detected in 19 (10 male, 9 female) of 42 patients (24 male, 18 female, mean age was 40.64 years, min-max: 20-69, SD±14.27). Signs of active inflammation which were intestinal wall thickening, T2 signal reduction, and pathological mucosal contrast enhancement were observed in 19 patients (26 intestinal segments). Active inflammation findings were most common in the terminal ileum, with 16 (61.5%), followed by 5 (19.2%) in the ascending colon, 2 (7.6%) in the jejunum, 2 (7.6%) in the nonterminal ileum, and 1 (3.8%) in the sigmoid colon. Chronic inflammation findings such as intestinal stenosis (18 intestinal segments), submucosal fat deposition (16 intestinal segments), and prestenotic dilatation (13 intestinal segments) were observed in 13 patients. There was an ileosigmoid fistula in 1 patient, enterovesical fistula in 1 patient, and enterocutaneous fistula in 1 patient. Conclusion: MRE is an appropriate diagnostic method without ionizing radiation, which can be used to detect the stage of inflammation (active or chronic) in the diseased intestinal segments in the diagnosis and follow-up of Crohn’s disease.

Authors: Demasheva Yuliya
Published: December 2021

The article defines the role and reveals the need to create subsidiary crafts as a necessary component for modifying and improving the innovative development of an agricultural enterprise. The author carries out the analysis of the state and development of subsidiary crafts at agricultural enterprises in the Nizhny Novgorod region. The relevance of the study is explained by the fact that in conditions of rural development, each agricultural enterprise to a certain extent correlates with the development of subsidiary industries and crafts. The purpose of the study is to diagnose the development of subsidiary fisheries in the regions and analyze the prerequisites for their creation. The subject of the study is subsidiary fisheries in the Nizhny Novgorod region. The methodological basis of the research relies on scientific methods based on the requirements of an objective and comprehensive analysis of the state and development of subsidiary fisheries in the region. Drawing on the results of the study, the author identifies the changes in the state of subsidiary fisheries at the regional level and determines the prerequisites for their development in the future.

De la calidad de la semilla dependerá la calidad del material con el que se desarrollará el almácigo. En la actualidad, los caficultores cuentan con variedades adaptadas a las condiciones agroecológicas de la caficultura colombiana, dentro de los que se destacan la Variedad Castillo® y sus componentes Regionales, Tabi, Cenicafé 1, Castillo® zona Norte, zona Centro y zona Sur. En Colombia, es necesario establecer cafetales con variedades resistentes a la roya del cafeto, debido a que ésta es la principal enfermedad que ataca a los cafetales en el país.
Acidez del suelo para el cultivo de café
Authors: Sadeghian Siavosh
Published: December 2021

Una de las limitantes comunes para la producción de café en muchas regiones de Colombia es la acidez. Cuando las raíces del café se desarrollan en suelos ácidos su crecimiento es menor, son menos eficientes en la absorción de agua y nutrientes, y por lo tanto, las plantas son menos productivas. La herramienta indispensable para el manejo de la acidez es el análisis de suelo, el cual ayuda a definir la dosis y la fuente de la enmienda (principalmente cales) para cada etapa del cultivo.

La productividad de los cafetales depende en gran medida de una adecuada nutrición. Cuando las raíces de las plantas encuentran condiciones óptimas para su crecimiento en el suelo y absorben en cantidades suficientes los elementos que necesitan para realizar sus funciones, se alimentan adecuadamente y producen de manera sostenible cosechas abundantes y de buena calidad.
Caficultura bajo sombrío
Authors: Farfán-Valencia Fernando
Published: December 2021

En las zonas cafeteras de Colombia se produce el café a libre exposición solar o bajo sombrío, la decisión de establecer uno u otro depende de las características climáticas y de suelos. Debe establecerse caficultura con sombra si los cultivos son afectados por las altas temperaturas, si en las regiones se presenta una reducción en las lluvias por largos períodos de tiempo, si se presenta falta de agua en el suelo, o si hay incremento en la radiación solar; alguno de estos factores o todos en su conjunto afectan marcadamente el desarrollo de la plantación, el desarrollo y formación del grano, y finalmente, la producción.
