Published: September 2024

The efficiency of thermal energy transfer, which is inevitably accompanied by heat losses through the insulation of pipelines, directly characterizes heating networks and centralized heat supply systems in general. The most important task in terms of current approaches to energy efficiency is to improve the efficiency of thermal energy transfer in modern heat supply systems. Currently known technical solutions to reduce heat losses through insulation of pipelines reduce heat losses, but not significantly. So, the purpose of this study is to develop a technical solution to reduce (even eliminate) standardized linear heat losses in heat supply networks of industrial enterprises. The authors have used methods of experimental research of heat transfer processes and mathematical modeling of heat and power equipment. A device for recycling heat losses is proposed. It is designed to reduce (even eliminate) normalized linear heat losses in heat supply networks of industrial enterprises. The permissible heat absorption of the device collector is determined, and a method for its regulation is described. An engineering method for calculation of the proposed device has been developed. The effectiveness of application of heat-reflecting screens in heating networks has been determined. A number of problems have been solved to improve the efficiency of heat supply systems of industrial enterprises using a device for recycling heat losses in the heating system channel.

Saturation of electromagnetic current transformers in transient modes of operation of an electric power system can lead to incorrect operation of relay protection devices. One of the most promising directions to improve the stability of the operation of relay protection devices in such modes is digital correction of secondary current. Currently, effective methods have been developed to restore the secondary current based on determination of magnetic circuit saturation. However, the practical application of these methods is impossible due to the imperfection of existing methods of secondary current segmentation. Thus, it is urgent to develop a method to determine saturation for implementation of digital correction algorithms for electromagnetic current transformers. To solve the stated problem, methods of mathematical modeling of electrical circuits containing transformers and the small-disturbance theory have been used. Verification of the research results is carried out in the Matlab software package. A mathematical criterion is formulated to determine the saturation of the magnetic circuit of an electromagnetic current transformer based on the inductance of the magnetization circuit. A method of segmentation of the secondary current has been developed for the implementation of digital correction algorithms based on the proposed criterion. The effectiveness of the developed method to determine the saturation of the magnetic circuit of an electromagnetic current transformer using computational experiments in the Matlab software package is demonstrated. It is planned to verify the developed method using a physical model of an electromagnetic current transformer.
Software development for digital interfaces of electromechanical position sensor
Authors:   LLC R&D Company “Rubicon – Innovation” (Smolensk), Polyuschenkov I.S.
Published: September 2024

For an electromechanical position sensor to be used in modern motion control systems, it must have technical means to transmit measurement results. It is also necessary to connect the sensor with equipment to configure and test it. In addition, the exchange of information between its elements that calculate, and generate and process signals may be required. To perform the listed functions of information interaction digital interfaces are designed. The choice of interface types depends on their purpose, and the algorithms of their use are implemented using software. The development of such digital interfaces for the controller of a sine-cosine rotary transformer in amplitude mode is an urgent task of modern motion control systems. When developing software for digital interfaces, methods of algorithmization of control and information transfer processes, methods of software development and debugging, as well as experimental research methods have been used. Information interaction between the controller of the electromechanical position sensor and the high-level controller as part of the motion control system and ensuring its operability is carried out using various digital interfaces. The I2C interface is used to communicate the sensor with the high-level controller, and the UART interface is used to communicate with the equipment for configuring and testing. The connection between the generator and signal processor chip and the microcontroller included in the sensor is carried out via the I2C interface. The authors have developed a microcontroller driver for connecting to the I2C network bus in Slave mode, as well as a software handler for the UART interface, which detects received messages of a given format and ensure safe operation in case of receiving corrupted messages. To store the configuration parameters of the sensor, one can access to flash memory of microcontroller. As a result of the use of digital interfaces and algorithms of their implementation that carry out information interaction, the developed controller of electromechanical position sensor becomes a full-fledged element of motion control systems. The use of modern design tools and specialized function libraries based on high-level C language, helps to develop software that implements these algorithms for various interfaces.
Soft Skills: Concepts, Problems, Research
Authors: Avdeeva N.N. , Kochetova Y.A. , Klimakova M.V.
Published: September 2024

The work is aimed at clarifying the concept of “soft skills”. The materials of the study of concepts, problems, and research of soft skills in a professional environment are presented. The topic of soft skills is extremely relevant, both Russian and foreign students do not exactly understand what soft skills are, which may be explained by the fact that there is currently no single approach to understanding them. The purpose of studying this problem is to review concepts, problems and research on the topic of soft skills in foreign and national scientific literature. The results obtained make it possible to say that soft skills is a broad concept, and does not include a strictly defined list of qualities or abilities. There is evidence that researchers attribute a different set of abilities to soft skills, while different abilities will be most significant for different professional fields. Separately, such abilities can be distinguished as: communication skills, leadership position, decision-making skills, responsibility, empathy, self-esteem, critical thinking, analytical thinking, emotional intelligence (often assessed as part of soft skills in foreign studies). The most effective methods for developing soft skills include: methods for early development, educational tasks related to information search and analysis, critical thinking development, self-management (including the formulation of action plans), teamwork skills, and the presence of social and humanitarian disciplines (“Philosophy" and "Sociology”), as well as specialized courses such as “Team Building” and “Time Management”. It is also emphasized that the level of soft skills development among teachers is important for fostering soft skills in students.
A New Study on the Tile Coffin Tombs of Three Kingdoms-Unified Silla Period
Authors:   Korean Ancient Historical Society, Kim Ha-Na , Shin Kwang-Cheol
Published: September 2024

Humanity chose ‘a tomb’ as the time after life, that is, a space to face death. In other words, a tomb is a space where people spend longer than life, and among them, a tomb made of tile used as a building material can be called a Tile Coffin Tombs. Until now, tiled coffin tombs have not received much attention in academia, but recent research cases are increasing.
Accordingly, after conducting a survey on the current status, the size and longitudinal ratio of the tomb, the location and direction of the major axis, type classification and year, and burial products and burial patterns were examined. Through this, it was confirmed that there are not a few differences betweenthe tiled tombs of Baekje and Silla cultures.
In addition, we looked at the case of China, where Tile Coffin Tombs was first created, and the social image of the Wei, jin, Northern and Southern dynasties in which Tile Coffin Tombs appeared in Baekje. As a result, it was confirmed that Baekje, which had a close relationship with the Chinese Southern Dynasties, continued to exchange technologies in various fields of society and received Buddhism and temples, half-down draft kiln, and new roof tile production techniques.
In the process, it was confirmed that the tiled coffin tomb that was introduced into Baekje was later transmitted to Silla, and that through re-localization, the tiled coffin tomb of the two cultures came to be established in different forms. The nature of burial in tile-coffin tombs, which were originally mainly used as infant graves in China, must also be understood in conjunction with these changes and need to be interpreted from a broad perspective.
From Sex Prisoners to Female Revolters: Feminist Narrative in Norman Mailer’s Novels
Authors: Liu Xirong
Published: September 2024

Norman Mailer, a Pulitzer Prize winner and a chronicler of his time, devoted his literary career to the representation of the western culture and the reality of America by putting his trust in sex and illustrating the gender relationship. In his writings, male are often created as robust, violent and powerful while female are often being bullied, humiliated, and defeated. Thus, Mailer has become one of the prime targets of feminist literary critics, being accused as a “prototypical male chauvinist”, a “warrior for male supremacy”, and a “militarist”. However, what these feminists fail to trace are Mailer’s development of feminist thoughts in his writings: The Naked and The Dead models women as prisoners of sex, having no chance to air their voice; The Deer Park exhibits female as passive angry fighters, trying to be heard but failed; finally, Tough Guys Don’t Dance constructs the dynamic female revolters, claiming the initial feminism success. Thereby, Mailer exhibits his positive exploration of feminism thoughts, his view that reality is not sex but personality and individuality, and his desire for a balance between man and woman. This paper is grounded theoretically on psychoanalysis and feminism with textual analysis of the female characters in Mailer’s three novels, progressing from The Naked and The Dead, through The Deer Park, to finally Tough Guys Don’t Dance.

Authors: Feng Miaomiao
Published: September 2024

As a country competes for its overall national strength all over the world, culture has grown to be an increasingly significant aspect. Considering the differences in the development paths and cultural traditions of different countries, more sophisticated translation strategies and skills are needed in the process of cultural going out. From the cultural perspective, this paper takes Zhang Peiji’s English Translation of Selected Modern Chinese Essays as an example, selects and summarizes culture-loaded words full of Chinese characteristics, and analyzes their translation strategies and skills, including place names, salutations and four-character idioms, which are representative of culture-loaded words. This paper aims to provide referential strategies for the translation of similar culture-loaded words in other texts, and to solve the difficulties in the translation of culture-loaded words. After the case analysis, this paper found that the most commonly used translation methods of culture-loaded words should be literal and free translation, and that it is necessary to preserve the original meaning and reveal the accurate connotation of culture-loaded words in order to convey the uniqueness and characteristics of Chinese culture.

The Relationship between Two Specific Views in Islamic Theology and Environmental Destruction
Authors: Shavarani Masoud
Published: September 2024

The planet is facing an unprecedented and dangerous environmental crisis, environmental problems such as consumerism, increase in human population, soil erosion, drought, drying up of rivers and lakes, destruction of forests and plants, extinction of insects and animals, use of fossil fuels, greenhouse gas production, etc. Muslim countries such as Iran, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, Somalia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Egypt, Libya, and Sudan are also heavily involved with these problems. In Islamic theology, there are two influential approaches to the behavior of Muslims, which have caused the destruction of the environment in Islamic countries. The first approach is the Anthropocentric doctrine in Islamic theology. According to this view, Muslims believe that man is the supreme being on earth and God’s successor on it (Khalīfa Allāh), and everything on earth is created for man’s use. The second approach is the Apocalyptic attitude (ākhir al-zamān) in Islamic theology. This view has also had an inappropriate effect on the behavior of Muslims toward the environment, because according to this approach, Muslims are waiting for the occurrence of Apocalyptic events that will lead to the destruction of the earth, and consequently in the end, the environment will be completely destroyed. For protecting the environment in Islamic countries, these two very influential attitudes toward the behavior of Muslims must be changed.
Corruption and Political Accountability under Economic Shocks: Preliminary Findings
Authors: Barinas-Forero Andrés Felipe , Scartascini Carlos
Published: September 2024

While the existing literature extensively explores the adverse effects of corruption on economic performance, there is limited research on how economic shocks influence corruption and political accountability. To address this gap, we develop a theoretical political model that allows politicians to be corrupt and citizens to punish corruption. In the model, positive economic shocks lead to increased corruption and weakened accountability. We validate these predictions empirically in a series of laboratory experiments conducted with university students in Colombia. Our findings indicate that corruption rates rise significantly during economic booms. Citizens willingness to punish corrupt politicians remains relatively unchanged across the business cycle. Citizens decide when to punish based on the observed allocation of public goods. Regardless of the state of the economy, low allocations lead to significantly higher punishment than higher allocations, which may lead to the punishment of honest politicians during economic downturns. Additionally, we evaluate the role of expectations in shaping decisions: during positive economic shocks, politicians anticipate reduced punishment, while citizens mistakenly expect a decrease in corruption. These results underscore the need for robust transparency and accountability mechanisms to safeguard governance standards.

INTRASPECIFIC AGGRESSIVENESS OF THREE SPECIES OF GOBIIDAE FISH OF THE GENUS PONTICOLA ILJIN, 1927 IN LABORATORY CONDITIONS
Authors: Karavansky Y. V. , Zamorov V. V.
Published: September 2024

The intensity of intraspecific aggressiveness of three species of gobiidae fish of the genus Ponticola was studied – Pinchuk’s goby Ponticola cephalargoides (Pinchuk, 1976), mushroom goby Ponticola eurycephalus (Kessler, 1874) and ratan goby Ponticola ratan (Nordmann, 1840). A different level of intraspecific aggressiveness is shown in the investigated fish species. Pinchuk’s goby showed the greatest aggressiveness – its single-sex and mixed groups behaved more aggressively than groups of mushroom goby and ratan goby. At the same time, indicators of the intensity of aggressiveness in the groups of mushroom goby and ratan goby did not show a statistically significant difference between these two fish species.

Authors: Stoilovskyi V. P. , Kivganov D. A.
Published: September 2024

The aim of the work is to assess the dynamic characteristics of hydrophilic birds in the spring period of 2019–2023.
Methods. In the open area, bird counts were carried out from a car with numerous stops to inspect territories and water areas using 10×, 12× binoculars and a 30–60× telescope. Observations were conducted on foot in areas with tree-shrub vegetation and along small water bodies. Registration of species was carried out both by visual observations and by the sounds of birds.
Main results. 99 bird species of 13 orders were registered. Representatives of theorders Anseriformes, Gruiformes, Charadriiformes and Passeriformes dominated.
Conclusions. Within the relatively little-changed natural complexes and in the adjacent territories and water areas of the region, relative stability of species diversity of birds and their quantitative characteristics has been observed in recent years. The population dynamics observed in some ecological groups of birds do not go beyond the normal fluctuations that are naturally inherent to them. Signs of an increase in the number of some species within the studied region in recent years can be associated with an increase in the level of danger in the eastern part of the Azov-Black Sea region in connection with military events.

Learning media has a somewhat important role in learning because it can make it easier for teachers to convey learning objectives to their students. From this, of course, it is necessary to develop learning media tailored to the needs of schools and the characteristics of students. The research results found that the enthusiasm and motivation to learn were still lacking, and the understanding of the material needed improvement. With the Jumanji board game, the media can overcome the obstacles that have been mentioned. Researchers use the R&D method using the ADDIE model, namely analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The result of this study is that researchers developed a learning media called the Jumanji Board. This media is a learning medium that can invite students to play while learning. The Jumanji board game media has colourful cards, game lines, pawns, dice, and sand time. This, of course, can attract students' motivation because, based on the study results, it was found that the enthusiasm and motivation to learn were still lacking, and the understanding of the material still needed to be improved. With the Jumanji board game, the media can overcome the obstacles that have been mentioned. The acquisition of media validation from expert validators obtained an average value of 90%. The results of this validation indicate that the Jumanji board game media has met the valid category or is very suitable for use.

V prostrani, neukročeni divjini umetne inteligence se je pojavila in postavila v ospredje nova generativna vrsta: veliki jezikovni modeli. Ti orjaki s svojimi milijardami parametrov tavajo po podatkovni pokrajini, lačni vzorcev in vpogledov v obilje besedil. Toda izkoriščanje njihove moči ni enostaven podvig. Lahko so nepredvidljivi, nagnjeni k halucinacijam in se pogosto težko držijo teme. Predvsem pa jih ni preprosto udomačiti. V članku predstavljamo pristop, s katerim lažje ukrotimo te velikane z uporabo pomenskega povezovanja z lokalnim korpusom besedil. Pristop združuje surovo moč velikih jezikovnih modelov s specifičnostjo in ustreznostjo lokalnih podatkov. Raziskali bomo, kako tak pristop omogoči ne le učinkovito, temveč tudi vsebinsko specifično generiranje odgovorov, pri čemer so zagotovljene natančne in podrobne informacije o vašem specifičnem podjetju ali panogi. V članku poskušamo na preprost način predstaviti zapletenost tovrstnega procesa usposabljanja, vključno s strateško uporabo generiranja z razširjenim iskanjem, ki našemu modelu omogoča učinkovit dostop do lokalnih virov znanja. Če bomo v svojem namenu uspeli, vas prispevek ne bo opremil le s kakšnim novim spoznanjem, ampak boste tudi pripravljeni, da se podate na lastno pustolovščino z generativno umetno inteligenco. Na tej pustolovščini se vam rade volje pridružimo, da skupaj ukrotimo velikega dobrodušnega velikana. Naj se torej krotenje začne!

Hiter razvoj na področju tehnologij veriženja blokov prinaša številne možnosti inovacij in vpeljave novih poslovnih modelov. Vpeljava hranjenja podatkov v verige blokov v poslovna okolja prinaša predvsem transparentnost podatkov, integriteto, boljšo dostopnost, varnost in možnost decentraliziranega upravljanje podatkov. Vpeljava hranjenja podatkov v verige blogov prinaša s seboj tudi številne inženirske izzive, ki jih je potrebno nasloviti v okviru razvojnega procesa tovrstnih rešitev. Namen prispevka je snovalcem tovrstnih programskih rešitev predstaviti nabor inženirskih pristopov, ki jih je smiselno vzeti v obzir pri analizi, načrtovanju, vrednotenju ali preoblikovanju na verigah blokov temelječih programskih rešitev. V prispevku povzamemo ključne inženirske izzive razvoja tovrstnih informacijskih rešitev ter predstavimo nekatere praktične rešitve za predstavljene izzive. V prispevku izpostavimo izzive in rešitve vpeljave verig blokov na performančne lastnosti in skalabilnost programskih rešitev. V primerjavi z dostopnimi časi podatkovnih baz se izvršitve transakcij in povpraševanj pri obdelavi podatkov zapisanih v verigah blokov soočajo tudi z višjimi latentnimi časi. Ti izhajajo iz razpršenosti podatkov med bloki, omejitve velikosti blokov in konstantnega preverjanje integritete zapisanih podatkov. Nenazadnje je pri arhitekturnem načrtovanju potrebno vzeti v obzir, da so v verige blokov zapisani podatki nespremenljivi, kar pogosto trči ob temeljno potrebo programske rešitve po njeni evoluciji.

V sodobnem spletnem razvoju je asinhrona komunikacija ključna za zagotavljanje odzivne uporabniške izkušnje. Tradicionalne metode, kot so povratne funkcije in obljube, lahko postanejo kompleksne. Medtem ko sintaksa async/await poenostavi asinhrono programiranje, še vedno ne rešuje vseh težav. Signali predstavljajo sodobno rešitev za te izzive, saj omogočajo modularno in prilagodljivo obvladovanje dogodkov. Signali omogočajo preprosto registracijo in sprožanje dogodkov ter boljšo modularnost v aplikacijah. Prispevek se osredotoča na preučitev signalov v JavaScriptu, njihovih osnovnih konceptov, primerov uporabe in prednosti, kot so zmanjšanje odvisnosti med komponentami, izboljšana asinhrona komunikacija in poenostavljeno upravljanje stanja. Poudarjena je tudi integracija signalov v priljubljena ogrodja JavaScript, kot so React.js, Vue.js in Angular.

Podatkovni prostori predstavljajo odprto in povezano infrastrukturo za varno izmenjavo podatkov v skladu s skupnimi pravili, standardi in politikami. Evropska komisija je februarja 2020 predstavila Evropsko strategijo za podatke z jasnim ciljem ustvariti enoten trg za podatke, ki bi omogočil polno izkoriščanje vrednosti podatkov v korist evropske družbe in gospodarstva. Strategija določa smernice za oblikovanje skupnih evropskih podatkovnih prostorov na več ključnih področjih. Ključni izzivi so zagotavljanje interoperabilnosti na različnih ravneh ter osredotočenost na dostopnost in suverenost podatkov (angl. Data Sovereignty), kar lahko ovira implementacijo minimalno funkcionalnih podatkovnih prostorov. V prispevku bomo osvetlili pomen in kompleksnost arhitektur podatkovnih prostorov. Pregledali bomo trenutno stanje pristopov k vzpostavitvi podatkovnih prostorov, pri čemer se bomo osredotočili na identifikacijo in analizo izzivov v specifičnih domenah in glavnih deležnikov podatkovnih prostorov. Poudarek bo na IT arhitekturnih predstavitvah, s podrobnim pregledom obstoječih pristopov in izzivov pri vzpostavitvi podatkovnih prostorov. Naša analiza bo vključevala ključne komponente, kot so integracija podatkov, upravljanje dostopa, zagotavljanje varnosti in skladnosti s predpisi, ter sodelovanje med različnimi deležniki. Tako bomo oblikovali celovito sliko o trenutnem stanju in prihodnjih usmeritvah na področju podatkovnih prostorov. Dodatno bomo predstavili inovativni pristop, ki omogoča identifikacijo podatkov in upravljanje dostopa do njih s pomočjo decentraliziranih tehnologij.

Published: September 2024

V svetu industrije 4.0 je vključenost mobilnih naprav vse bolj pogost pojav. Od podpore pri načrtovanju virov podjetja, skladiščnega poslovanja, usmerjanja delavcev, vse do optimizacije procesov, opazimo, da so nepogrešljiv del modernih industrij. Na njih je naloženih vse več aplikacij po meri, katere je potrebno vzdrževati. Posledično je smiselno razmišljati o sistemu za upravljanje mobilnih naprav MDM (ang. Mobile device management). V prispevku predstavimo postopek implementacije lastnega sistema MDM znotraj privatnega podjetja. Osredotočili smo se predvsem v razvoj zaganjalnika na mobilni napravi, ki skrbi za zagon, nalaganje in posodabljanje mobilnih aplikacij. Zaganjalnik je implementiran na osnovi ogrodja večplatformnih uporabniških vmesnikov aplikacije .NET MAUI. Zraven implementacijskih podrobnosti opišemo še cevovod v platformi GitLab, ki poskrbi za samodejno posodabljanje mobilnih aplikacij. Na koncu sledi analiza koristnih napotkov ter možnosti izboljšav sistema.
