Communicative Role Of Traditional Values In Maintaining the Social Stability of Chinese Society
Authors: Kaira Yu. V. , Liu Junjie
Published: October 2023

Traditional values of Confucianism are perceived as the binding foundation for all sectors of society and social institutions in China – both in the past and in present. Communicativeness is interpreted from the point of view of values that go back to the centuries-old history of China, rather than from the point of view of new digital technologies that play supporting role. The common principles of interaction learned, understood and adopted by all members of society make it possible to develop universal value-institutionalized practices that are introduced into communication between people and organizations on a newly emerging technological basis. The traditional values of Confucianism are being revived after a period of oblivion and acquiring a binding meaning in public communications, significantly contributing to the maintenance of social stability. To ensure social stability on such grounds, the authors consider it is necessary to observe traditional moral and value guidelines in the subjects of communication themselves, especially when they implement the functions of solidarity and coordination of communications between all subjects and objects of this process. The authors outline the following criteria for the effectiveness of social communications based on traditional values: (1) cognitive – unity of understanding of generally accepted values; (2) traditional – preservation of the original meaning and purpose of value systems ; (3) technological – the ability to preserve the original value essence in the shell of new communication technologies. At the end, the authors offer a framework vision of the communicative traditionalist-value mechanism for maintaining social stability and criteria for its effectiveness with the prospect of developing an approach to identifying the communicative capabilities of traditional values in order to maintain social stability. The authors’ reflections and conclusions are accompanied by examples of communication practices in Chinese society of the past and in present.
Transnational Approach to the Study of Media Audience
Authors: Polyakov A. K. , Abbasov H. A.
Published: October 2023

The article examines the theoretical and methodological understanding of the transformation of the axiological background in media discourse, influenced by mediatization and globalization. The multiplicity of opinions within the media audience arises from the increasing popularity of transnational media conglomerates’ information products. In the context of cross-border socio-political processes, the cross-cultural interaction among media audience participants leads to clashes of values during online media discourse. This article suggests exploring the concept of a “transnational audience” and its components through a meta-analysis of the research base. The authors assert that adopting a transnational approach to studying the media audience will enable an examination of the value background of media discourse within the context of global socio-political processes.

Published: October 2023

The paper is dedicated to the sociological analysis of social technologies applied for creating a positive image of public security authorities. The authors substantiate the expediency of using a socio-technological approach to the formation of the image of security authorities, ensuring the selection of relevant and adequate content for various target groups and audiences. Besides, the text represents the components of the image creation that allows us to algorithmize this process, that is, to determine its main directions that, taken together, can lead to an improvement in the image of public security authorities: segmentation – identifying target groups of the population differentiated based on their attitude towards internal affairs bodies and having different social attitudes and expectations; positioning – determining attributes that will directly affect the formation of the image of internal affairs bodies in various segmented groups; design – the formation of an integral characteristic, including the mythological, virtual-stereotypical and concrete levels at which the analysis and selection of certain archetypes, symbolic images suitable for the modern situation takes place, the development of desirable social actions of department employees; rooting – the final consolidation and fixation of the image of the department in the minds of the population.
Doctor-Patient Communication In Clinical Trials With The Usage Of Mobile Technologies
Authors: Dmitrieva E. V. , Sopetina D. N.
Published: October 2023

As part of import substitution and the need to take a leading position in the production of medicines in the Russian pharmaceutical industry, clinical trials of drugs using mobile technologies are beginning to be carried out. Technological changes are accompanied by a transformation in the relationship between the doctor and the patient, where the patient becomes an active rather than a passive participant in the process. The key factors in the effectiveness of interaction are trust in the doctor and the degree of satisfaction with the healthcare system. In clinical trials using mobile technologies, the doctor-patient dyad is significantly expanded and includes the staff of the sponsoring organization, researchers who collect information about the participant’s condition using a mobile device, the participant reporting his/her conditions through mobile device, as well as family and medical staff providing additional information about the participant. It is necessary to study the factors of trust to health care provider in non-personal interaction and building the grounds to motivate doctors’ and patients’ usage of mobile technologies. The usage of mobile technologies makes it possible to reduce the “professional burnout syndrome” of health care providers from the repetitive nature of communication and replace it with digital technologies; makes it possible to receive information online and feedback from patients; increases adherence to treatment and adherence to doctor’s recommendations. The benefits of constant contact between the doctor and the patient through mobile technologies will contribute to building more trust in their interaction and increase satisfaction of the population with the quality of medical services.
Theoretical investigations on Kerr and Faraday rotations in topological multi-Weyl Semimetals
Authors: Ghosh Supriyo , Sahoo Ambaresh , Nandy Snehasish
Published: October 2023

Motivated by the recent proposal of giant Kerr rotation in WSMs, we investigate the Kerr and Faraday rotations in time-reversal broken multi-Weyl semimetals (mWSMs) in the absence of an external magnetic field. Using the framework of Kubo response theory, we find that both the longitudinal and transverse components of the optical conductivity in mWSMs are modified by the topological charge (nn). Engendered by the optical Hall conductivity, we show in the thin film limit that, while the giant Kerr rotation and corresponding ellipticity are independent of nn, the Faraday rotation and its ellipticity angle scale as nn and n^2n2, respectively. In contrast, the polarization rotation in semi-infinite mWSMs is dominated by the axion field showing nn dependence. In particular, the magnitude of Kerr (Faraday) angle decreases (increases) with increasing nn in Faraday geometry, whereas in Voigt geometry, it depicts different nn-dependencies in different frequency regimes. The obtained results on the behavior of polarization rotations in mWSMs could be used in experiments as a probe to distinguish single, double, and triple WSMs, as well as discriminate the surfaces of mWSMs with and without hosting Fermi arcs.
Extensive long-range entanglement in a nonequilibrium steady state
Authors: Fraenkel Shachar , Goldstein Moshe
Published: October 2023

Entanglement measures constitute powerful tools in the quantitative description of quantum many-body systems out of equilibrium. We study entanglement in the current-carrying steady state of a paradigmatic one-dimensional model of noninteracting fermions at zero temperature in the presence of a scatterer. We show that disjoint intervals located on opposite sides of the scatterer, and within similar distances from it, maintain volume-law entanglement regardless of their separation, as measured by their fermionic negativity and coherent information. The mutual information of the intervals, which quantifies the total correlations between them, follows a similar scaling. Interestingly, this scaling entails in particular that if the position of one of the intervals is kept fixed, then the correlation measures depend non-monotonically on the distance between the intervals. By deriving exact expressions for the extensive terms of these quantities, we prove their simple functional dependence on the scattering probabilities, and demonstrate that the strong long-range entanglement is generated by the coherence between the transmitted and reflected parts of propagating particles within the bias-voltage window. The generality and simplicity of the model suggest that this behavior should characterize a large class of nonequilibrium steady states.

Evaluating the Perspectives of Teachers with Hearing-impaired Students on their Professional Competencies
Authors: ASLAN BAĞCI Özlem , SARI Hakan
Published: October 2023

Introduction: Special education policy is based upon integration in Türkiye. Hence, the professional competencies of teachers working with hearing-impaired students in the field of hearing impairments have a prominent role in this policy. This study aims to identify the teacher needs for the teacher competency training program in hearing impairments to be developed for teachers of hearing-impaired students.
Method: Qualitative research design was adopted in this study, and the data were collected by semi-structured interview on the professional knowledge and skills teachers need while teaching hearing-impaired students at different levels (primary, secondary, and high school) in the central districts of Sakarya. The data were analyzed by content analysis.
Findings: Through the data, the main themes of knowledge about the hearing impaired, communication models and hearing aids, teaching methods and techniques, and academic and professional skills were unfolded.
Discussion: In the literature, there are many studies that reveal the necessity and importance of needs analysis in studies to determine and develop teacher competencies and research results that are consistent with the findings of this study.
Conclusion and Suggestions: As a result of this research, what teachers with hearing-impaired students state about the education of hearing impaired are as follows: Definitions, classification and developmental characteristics of hearing-impaired children, diagnosis and evaluation processes, educational approaches and program adaptation, individualized education program (IEP) development and implementation, material preparation and educational environments using technology, communication models, hearing aids and assistive technologies, environment adaptation and effective classroom management. In addition, it was found that teachers neither have sufficient knowledge about family education nor find themselves sufficient in issues regarding hearing-impaired students, so they wanted to receive training. Based on the study results, suggestions, such as supporting teachers with pre-service and in-service training and providing them with expert support, were made.
Influences of teleconnections on climate variables in northern and northeastern Thailand
Authors: Nakburee Arisara , Shrestha Sangam , Mohanasundaram S. , Loc Ho Huu , Maharjan Manisha
Published: October 2023

Teleconnection events can influence normal regional weather patterns and affect weather forecast accuracy. To improve the forecast ability, the relationship between main teleconnections such as El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO), and climate variables (rainfall, maximum and minimum surface temperature, vertical mixing ratio, and vertical maximum temperature) was established using lag correlation coefficient and t-test methods. The results reveal moderately significant correlations between El Niño, positive IOD and rainfall, and vertical mixing ratio, which can be associated with lower-than-usual rainfall. The coincidence between El Niño and positive IOD events can worsen drought. Even though the MJO and regional weather correlations were significant, the magnitude of correlation coefficients was negligible. In addition, the spatiotemporal distribution of ENSO shows that the strong El Niño has more influence on rainfall anomalies in the post-1980s. Since there are insufficient studies on the association between teleconnections and climate variables, especially vertical mixing ratio, our findings can benefit prediction development for teleconnection-induced regional climate anomalies for extreme events and water management preparations in northern and northeastern Thailand.

Published: October 2023

This study converted slag from the steelmaking industry into an Fe2O3-rich nanocomposite using solvothermal technique for photodegradation of pharmaceutical wastewater in an immobilized mode. The nanocomposite was characterized using XRF, SEM, EDX, TEM, FTIR, XRD, and UV–Vis spectrometer. The XRF analysis result reveals a significant increase in the weight percent of Fe2O3 and SiO2, with a decrease in CaO content. The SEM images revealed the spherical and heterogeneous nature of the nanocomposite in shape and structure, while the FTIR confirms the increase in the vibration band of Si–O–Si and Fe–O with a reduction in the wide stretch mode of Ca–O. The XRD result illustrated the crystalline peak of Fe2O3 with a nanoparticle crystal size of 15.17 nm. The slag nanocomposite was used for the photodegradation of paracetamol. The optimum operating parameters were obtained using response surface methodology at an R2 value of 0.99 and p-value < 0.05. The degradation efficiency obtained at the optimum value was 96.96%. The degradation efficiency of the fifth repeated cycle of the immobilized nanocomposite was 77.89%. The degradation mechanism revealed that OH• radical was the major species of the degradation process. This work showed that slag nanocomposite might be effectively used for pharmaceutical wastewater treatment.

Producción desigual del espacio urbano y el derecho a la vida urbana
Authors: Zuluaga Giraldo Lina Maria
Published: October 2023

En la ciudad de Manizales, Colombia, la producción del espacio urbano está dada por patrones dominantes que se relacionan con el capital, lo que conduce a la mercantilización y el control del espacio por parte de grupos hegemónicos. El presente artículo revisa la manera en que se concibe dicho espacio a partir de la relación saber-poder, mediante el análisis de políticas urbanas que regulan la organización de la ciudad y que, a la vez, generan desigualdades, lo que lleva a que una población carente de poder económico y político quede excluida y marginada de la ciudad. No obstante, esta población desarrolla prácticas, saberes y formas de organización que les permite sobrevivir al crear maneras de ser, estar y hacer diferentes a las visiones normadas y programadas, lo cual sugiere espacios diferentes donde los habitantes excluidos dan luchas diarias por existir; luchas que se extienden al reclamo por el derecho a la vida urbana.
Activación concertada de los receptores transmembranales: Repercusiones fisiológicas
Authors: Lee-Rivera Irene , López Edith , López Colomé Ana María
Published: October 2023

Los estudios iniciales acerca de los receptores acoplados a proteínas G (GPCRs) sugerían que los mismos no interactúan con otro tipo de receptores, o bien lo hacen con miembros de su propia familia. Recientemente, este concepto ha cambiado, ya que existe evidencia cada vez más abundante, de que interactúan con otras clases de receptores, diversificando así sus funciones y su capacidad para responder a los estímulos del entorno. El proceso mediante el cual un receptor desencadena cascadas de señalamiento a partir de un segundo receptor, en ausencia de síntesis de proteínas, se ha denominado “transactivación”. En esta revisión se analiza la transactivación de algunos receptores transmembranales, los mecanismos intracelulares involucrados, y sus repercusiones fisiopatológicas, utilizando como ejemplo a los receptores activados por proteasas (PARs). Éstos fueron de los primeros receptores en los que se demostró este tipo de interacción, así como su participación en una gran variedad de procesos fisiológicos, debido a su capacidad para relacionarse con una gran variedad de proteínas de la membrana. La diversidad de funciones que deriva de las interacciones entre los receptores incrementa el nivel de complejidad de sus cascadas de señalamiento, y representan una gran oportunidad para el desarrollo de nuevos protocolos terapéuticos.

El cáncer colorrectal (CRC) es uno de los más agresivos y letales en el humano, su incidencia aumenta por los malos hábitos alimenticios y un estilo de vida sedentario. Las alteraciones genómicas que afecan la función de diversas vías de señalización contribuyen al desarrollo de este tipo de cáncer. El factor de crecimiento transformante β (TGF-β) es una citocina multifuncional con diversos efectos biológicos, incluido el control de la homeostasis tisular; sin embargo, los cambios inusuales en sus funciones favorecen el desarrollo de patologías como la fibrosis y el cáncer. En estadios tempranos del CRC, el TGF-β ejerce efectos supresores de tumores, pero en etapas avanzadas promueve la progresión tumoral, por lo que es considerado un importante blanco terapéutico. Esta revisión describe y analiza los mecanismos potenciales de acción y de secreción de la citocina TGF-β en el microambiente tumoral del CRC, y sus efectos biológicos sobre las líneas cancerosas humanas del CRC: SW480 (tumor primario) y SW620 (tumor metastásico), las cuales provienen del mismo paciente y muestran un alto grado de malignidad. Estas células se caracterizan por sintetizar y secretar altas cantidades de la citocina TGF-β, expresan a los principales componentes de su vía de señalización como los receptores y sus efectores, con excepción de la proteína SMAD4; además se conoce parte de la composición de las vesículas extracelulares secretadas por estas células, así como sus efectos biológicos en diferentes células blanco, por lo que las células SW480 y SW620 representan un modelo biológico ideal para estudiar las acciones del TGF-β en las etapas avanzadas del CRC.

México es uno de los principales productores de chile y de maíz a nivel mundial. Actividad de la que se originan grandes cantidades de biomasa y subproductos agrícolas, los cuales se pretende que sean valorizados para mitigar el daño al medio ambiente y generar así un valor agregado. El objetivo de este estudio fue obtener fitoquímicos con actividad antibacteriana y antifúngica de biomasa de chile y de maíz contra fitopatógenos de importancia económica para la agricultura, al emplear métodos de extracción basados en la química verde. Para la extracción de los fitoquímicos se dispuso de dos tipos de Disolventes Eutécticos Profundos (DES), y una fermentación láctica con Lactobacillus plantarum. Los extractos se evaluaron in vitro e in vivo contra Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis, Xanthomonas vesicatoria, Ralstonia solanacearum, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. licopersici, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Botrytis cinerea y Alternaria solani. Los resultados in vitro demostraron que los extractos obtenidos con los DES fueron efectivos contra las bacterias, a diferencia de las pruebas in vivo que inhibieron el crecimiento de los hongos. El potencial de los extractos de las biomasas contra los microorganismos fitopatógenos, las señala como una herramienta de biocontrol agrícola, que asegura la sustentabilidad y se aprovecha el beneficio de los DES que son eficientes, biodegradables, inocuos, y con capacidad de extracción de fitoquímicos antimicrobianos y antifúngicos.
Desarrollo de una pintura a partir de escoria de aceración para calentamiento solar de agua
Authors: Rogel Ramírez Alejandro de la Cruz , Zamora Plata José Antonio
Published: October 2023

Junto con la producción de hierro y acero, se generan grandes cantidades de escoria (30-45 % y 10-20 % en peso, respectivamente). La escoria negra de aceración se produce en el horno BOF (BOFS, Basic Oxygen Furnace Slag, mayormente en México) y en el horno de arco eléctrico (EAFS, Electric Arc Furnace Slag). Este estudio tiene como objetivo la construcción de sistemas solares para calentamiento de agua, utilizando desechos industriales. Este trabajo describe el desarrollo de un revestimiento, utilizando escoria de aceración BOFS, para captación de energía solar térmica. La pintura fue elaborada mezclando partículas de BOFS de 5-25 µm, limadura de cobre y adhesivo natural, con composiciones másicas distintas. Primeramente, este experimento se realizó utilizando un tubo de cobre (3/4”, DI) revestido con cada mezcla preparada, con agua estacionaria y un tubo de policarbonato (1 ¼” DI) como cubierta transparente. Se estudiaron los efectos en el desempeño térmico de la concentración másica y el tamaño de partículas BOFS, así como el espesor del revestimiento. La temperatura máxima alcanzada fue de 64°C. Con base en estos resultados se construyó un calentador solar de agua de placa plana (de 0.5 m2) y un termotanque de 30 litros. La temperatura máxima en el colector solar fue de 65°C. Los calentadores solares de placa plana comerciales garantizan un intervalo de 45-65°C; considerando esta situación, la nueva pintura es competitiva con los revestimientos para captar energía solar térmica disponibles en el mercado. La siguiente etapa es el estudio de la aplicabilidad de esta pintura, a partir de BOFS, en un calentador solar de agua de tamaño comercial (2m2 de superficie colectora). La pintura desarrollada puede ser utilizada, por ejemplo, en calentadores solares de gua de baja temperatura, para calentamiento de aire utilizable en el acondicionamiento térmico de espacios y secado de materiales.

Published: October 2023

El sureste de México ha sufrido una gran transformación del paisaje, en parte por la presencia de sistemas de aprovechamiento forestal. Describimos comunidades de avifauna en monocultivos de eucalipto y hule en Huimanguillo, Tabasco, y evaluamos la influencia estructural de estos monocultivos en las aves. Se establecieron 118 puntos de conteo de aves (6 réplicas) y parcelas para evaluar la vegetación. En los 708 puntos se observaron 4,699 individuos de 148 especies de aves; la mayor riqueza y abundancia se presentó en eucalipto. El Anosim mostró diferencias significativas entre hule y eucalipto. El Simper indicó que Psilorhinus morio y Eupsittula nana aportaron mayores porcentajes de disimilitud. La estructura de vegetación difirió estadísticamente entre sitios, particularmente las variables arbóreas en plantaciones con respecto a sus matrices circundantes. Los modelos lineales generalizados (GLM) indicaron que la estructura de sotobosque y el tipo de plantación influyen sobre la diversidad de aves. Los monocultivos de eucalipto en Huimanguillo sustentan una comunidad de aves más rica que la del hule. El eucalipto parece formar parte fundamental del hábitat invernal para aves migratorias en esta región. El sotobosque en sistemas agroforestales es un elemento esencial para las aves en paisajes dominados por actividades antrópicas.

Published: October 2023

The Sierra Gorda de Querétaro Biosphere Reserve (SGQBR) is one of the largest natural protected areas in Mexico; however, little is known about the richness and diversity of amphibians and reptiles. We present an updated list of species of both groups, the conservation status of these species, as well as an analysis of their diversity with respect to other protected natural areas (NPAs) in central Mexico. The SGQBR contains 132 herpetofauna species (35 amphibians and 97 reptiles). The richest and most diverse families for amphibians were Hylidae (anurans) and Plethodontidae (caudates), and for reptiles Phrynosomatidae (lizards), Colubridae and Dipsadidae (snakes). The values of taxonomic diversity of the SGQBR were similar to those for the regional pool considering others NPAs. However, it did not achieve the highest values compared to the adjacent Los Mármoles National Park or Sierra Gorda de Guanajuato Biosphere Reserve. There was a high complementarity in the species composition between El Chico National Park and SGQBR for both herpetofauna groups. Although a formal list is presented, it is necessary to carry out a greater number of studies focused on analyzing diversity, considering functional attributes of the species and the richness by vegetation types.

El Diablo en Chile Colonial. Alhué 1792
Authors: Ortiz Espinoza Ricardo
Published: October 2023

El estudio narra el caso de Santiago Barreta, acusado de estupro reiterado contra sus hijas, en la localidad de Alhue en 1792. Sin embargo, lo interesante del mismo es la curiosa atribución de culpabilidad al Diablo.

Se reconoce que, a pesar de la influencia de la Ilustración europea, en el Chile de la época persistían creencias tradicionales arraigadas en el derecho divino, donde el pecado y el delito estaban entrelazados.

El estudio, de carácter heurístico, se convierte en una herramienta para entender cómo estas creencias populares y la realidad se fusionan en una estructura única. En este caso, el Diablo se convierte en el chivo expiatorio, un reflejo de la influencia que ejerce en la sociedad, más allá de su historia real, que es inaccesible excepto a través de las percepciones humanas, haciendo que las representaciones imaginarias se volvieran reales en la medida en que la sociedad las aceptaba como verdades arraigadas en su acervo cultural.

Andaman and Nicobar Islands is one of the most earthquake experienced areas around the world subjected to frequent earthquakes which is being the area of study using rapid visual screening (RVS) method by google maps and field visit as well. Although the google maps and internet sources can be used to cover up 80 percent data required for assessing and quantifying the RVS score but a field visit was made for extracting more relevant data for a detailed study. Port Blair municipal area was narrowed down for the screening since it had the greatest number of buildings. It was found that the moment resisting frames have been used in most of the buildings. RC moment resisting frames, load bearing structures, steel structures and wooden structures were studied in the screening and score was awarded. Gleaned from the score it was derived that old buildings are more susceptible for higher damage in near future then the recently constructed building.

Экспериментальные исследования выполнены с целью изучения влияния сыпучего заполнителя на устойчивость оболочек при кручении. В отечественной и зарубежной литературе не обнаружены нами публикации, где рассматривалось бы устойчивость тонкостенных оболочек, заполненных сыпучим материалом, при кручении. Для выполнения экспериментов разработана и изготовлена специальная установка, позволяющая испытывать образцы на кручение, на изгиб и на сложное нагружение, нагружая образцы соответствующим образом. До испытаний производился отбор образцов на отсутствие дефектов в виде вмятин, овальности, разностенности, постоянства размеров поперечного сечения. Известно, что дефекты образцов существенно влияют на устойчивость. Образцы испытывались длиной 140 мм, 90 мм, 25 мм. Образцы изготавливались глубокой вытяжкой из высокопластичного алюминиевого сплава 3004 в состоянии Н19. В данном случае один конец образцов жестко закреплялся к установке, к другому концу прикладывался крутящий момент, который возрастал до потери устойчивости образцов. В начале и в конце испытания нагружали образцы малыми порциями, чтобы уловить начало движения и начало потери устойчивости. Установка позволяла создавать различные граничные условия образцов. В экспериментах измеряли крутящий момент и угол закручивания. Построены линейные зависимости угла закручивания от крутящего момента. Значит устойчивость терялась в упругости. Для образцов, заполненных сыпучим заполнителем, в начале процесса закручивания имело место нелинейная зависимость между крутящим моментом и углом закручивания. Это связано с возникновением сил трения между заполнителем и внутренней стенкой образцов, которые создавали противодействующий крутящий момент. Затем графики для пустых и заполненных образцов увеличивались параллельно друг другу.
Для пустых образцов [1] рассчитывались критические напряжения, критические углы закручивания, число образовавшихся волн, их направление. Получена сходимость расчетных и экспериментальных параметров в пределах 36%. Сыпучий заполнитель, в виде железного порошка увеличивал значение критического крутящего момента до 17%.

In most current seismic design on bridges, only mainshock actions are considered without incorporating the effect of mainshock-aftershock (MA) sequences and interaction soil-pile.However, a large mainshock usually triggers numerous aftershocks in a short period. This paperstudy the effect of mainshock-aftershock sequences on the behavior of interaction Soil-pile-structure system (ISPS). abeam on nonlinearWinkler foundation (BNWF) model is usingand subjected to non-linear static analysis and incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) leading finally to the fragility curves which are developed. These analyses aim to capture the collapse state of structures under aftershock events preceded by various mainshock levels. Results obtained from capacity curve, incremental dynamic and fragility curves of ISSP system.The analytical results show that in the MA sequences,for dense soil the vulnerable of mainshock-aftershock (MS-AS) loading are more damage due to mainshock loading for all diameter of the pile and the mass. For soft soil   are more vulnerable to damage due to mainshock-aftershock (MS-AS) loading.  But in the stiff clay the effect of mainshock-aftershock (MS-AS) loading for all the diameter of pile and  for masse are neglected.

Historical review of the Russian market economy formation and development based on the works of Doctor of Economics, Prof. L.S. Shakhovskaya
Authors: Popkova Elena G.
Published: October 2023

Research focuses on the problem of incompleteness and unreliability of the existing scientific vision of the formation and development of a market economy in Russia. In the current vision, the boundaries of the stages of formation and development of a market economy in Russia are blurred, the transition to a market path of economic development has an ambiguous interpretation in the scientific literature and is mainly associated with the 1990s. The lack of a clear understanding of the essence, sequence and continuity of the stages of formation and development of a market economy in Russia causes the uncertainty of the current stage of this process. The purpose of this research is to develop a systematic scientific vision of the process of evolution of a market economy in Russia. The study provides a historical review of the formation and development of a market economy in Russia based on the works of Doctor of Economics, prof. L.S. Shakhovskaya, who stood at the origins of the formation of the scientific concept of the market economy of Russia and in her works reflected in detail the essence and features of each stage of its evolution. This article is dedicated to the 80th anniversary of Professor L.S. Shakhovskaya, was written by her students who are developing the scientific school founded by her. The proposed new scientific vision of the process of evolution of the market economy in Russia, which clearly determined the three stages of its evolution. The first stage (1991-1999) was associated with the transition from a planned to an open industrial market economy through privatization and deregulation. The second stage: (2000-2013) was the integration of Russia into the world economic system to form an open post-industrial market economy. The third (modern) stage (2014-2031) involves the strengthening of strategic academic and technological leadership for the transition to a neo-industrial market economy 4.0 through ensuring technological sovereignty. Research contributes to the development of scientific and economic thought through the formation of a systematic scientific vision of the process of evolution of the market economy in Russia, which rethought and clarified the history of the market economy in Russia, and also clarified the meaning of its current stage by reflecting its continuity and patterns of occurrence. The scientific novelty of the system vision is that it proved for the first time that the transition period is a whole set of periods involving the transformation of market relations with various targets and management measures.
Global development of the “Blue Economy” and Africa’s place in it
Authors: Koshelenko Victoriya V. , Krivorotov Dmitriy N.
Published: October 2023

The relevance of the chosen topic of the study is justified by a number of developments in the modern world economy: the rapid development of the global blue economy amid growing demand for products sourced from ocean resources; increasing attention to international environmental sustainability, especially at a time of transformation of traditional ocean industries; and underutilization of the potential of blue economy development in a number of regions, including Africa. The study aims to analyse the current state and prospects of the “blue economy” globally and in Africa, while also developing a stimulus plan for the most promising sectors of the blue economy on the continent. Despite progress between 2010 and 2022 in exploring the blue economy concept, there is a lack of scientific research on its development in specific regions and under international cooperation. This study addresses this research gap by analysing the global and African development of the blue economy. Barriers and challenges hindering the sustainable development of the blue economy have been identified, both globally and in Africa. The study identifies prospects and directions for sustainable development, which will depend on the dynamics of technology costs, particularly in Africa where timely resolution of issues is crucial. The author questions not only achieving sustainable growth but also expanding Africa’s role and significance in the global blue economy, and optimally harnessing the continent’s vast developmental potential, including its neighbouring islands. Research outcomes include a project for constructing offshore wind farms (OWFs) and recommendations to foster the blue economy in Africa. The analysis highlights the need for decisive political measures, cooperation, effective coordination, and the ratification of international documents to achieve sustainable development goals in Africa. The combination of these factors with technological advancements in the blue economy sectors presents an opportunity to alleviate national differences and contradictions.

The Global Innovation Index 2022 ranks the Republic of Uzbekistan among the top three economies in Central and South Asia. The country has been active in introducing innovations in various fields, from road transport technologies to biotechnology. The relevant programmes and resolutions of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan have been adopted. The Republic of Uzbekistan is becoming an increasingly attractive destination for foreign investment. The country has a strong potential and abundant resources, both natural and human. By pursuing a consistent policy, the Republic of Uzbekistan is gradually beginning to assert itself on the world stage, and is striving to become a leader in Central Asia. Thus, the consideration of new projects carried out within the framework of innovation policy is relevant. The aim of the presented paper is to identify main innovation policy development trends in the Republic of Uzbekistan. To analyze the innovation policy of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the authors considered the Decree of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan coordinating the activities of the Ministry of Innovation Development, the New Uzbekistan Development Strategy for 2022-2026, as well as local and Russian experts’ assessments. The research literature, mass media sources, public opinion polls and statistical data, as well as the legal framework were studied. In this paper a diagnosis of the Ministry of Innovative Development of the Republic of Uzbekistan has been made, and the key tasks and directions of the country’s reforms in this area have been identified. The main projects, which attract significant investments and introduce new technologies and personnel, are described. The author’s position is as follows: the government of the Republic of Uzbekistan is struggling with the problems that hinder innovation reforms, as well as actively developing cooperation with foreign countries, international organizations and attracts the investments of private investors.
