Silver Age. Interference of the Russian and German Cultures
Authors: Kharitonova Natalya Stepanovna
Published: February 2020

The author explores the specific interaction of Russian and German art, their differences, forces of attraction and direct contact. Only conscious and meaningful differences could have reveal the strength and true value of each culture and, most importantly, become a pretext for new and creative quest for ones own way in art. Two-sided interest of Russian and German cultures implies a two-way process mutually contributed and enriched on both parts. The fact that Russian and German art at the turn of the 19th-20th centuries was developing under different conditions does not mean that the exchange of spiritual values was proceeding in only one direction. The facts indicate to intensive relationships and mutual enrichment between the two cultures. Despite restrained relation towards Russian fine art until the mid-1890s, the preconditions for closer attention to it were gradually evolving in Germany. A very important role was played in this province by Russian literature, which since the mid-80s had started to agitate the minds both in Germany and Europe in general. Tolstoy and Dostoevsky became well-known in Germany in 1880s, when the first translations of their works appeared. The next two decades showed an uninterrupted flow of reprints. But the point is not merely in the fact, that the achievements of Russian literature suggested the existence of fine arts of the same quality. Rather, as many critics state, Russian literature became a special key to the 19th century arts. The exhibitions of the Russian artists, including solo exhibitions of Ivan K. Aivazovsky and Vasily Vereshchagin, used to be arranged more and more often in German cities. Relations between Russian and German culture in the late 19th - early 20th were fairly stable and fruitful, enriching and inspiring art in both countries. By late 1910s the European public had accepted Russian art as an equal and very significant phenomenon in world culture, with much spiritual and creative potential deserving an elaborate study.

World War II in the Cinema of Green Continent
Authors: Zvegintseva Irina Anatolyevna
Published: February 2020

Despite its remote location from the major theatre of operations, Australia participated in the war siding with the Anti-German Coalition from the outbreak of World War II up to its end. Naturally, this impacted upon economic, social and cultural life of the country. The war was broadly covered by the Australian filmmakers and took a significant place in Australian cinema. For Australia World War II began on September 3rd, 1939. A million of Australian men and women fought against Germany in 19391945. Talking of the war theme in the Australian cinema, one should firstly pay tribute to the memory of dozens of Australian cameramen sent to the World War front alongside with soldiers, who covered the events in the newsreels. As for feature filmmakers, they were not able to cover the war due to poor production funding. Only after resuscitation of the national filmmaking in 1970s Australian filmmakers got an opportunity of shooting a number of interesting films dedicated to the events that had taken place seventy years ago. The theme of World War II was covered in many films. A lot of the best national filmmakers paid tribute to it, ranging from Brendan Mahers Sisters of War (2010) with its unprecedented harsh and truthful depiction of the role of Australian women in the war, to Jonathan Teplitzkys The Railway Man (2013), based on the bestselling autobiography of Eric Lomax (co-produced with Great Britain). The relevance of this article and its innovative contribution comes down to proof, that, although the number of films dedicated to World War II is relatively limited, their quality is extremely high and noteworthy. Its also noteworthy, that Australian filmmakers have brought back in the viewers minds the heroism of their fathers and forefathers, thus paying tribute to the memory of those who saved the world from Nazism seventy years ago.
Synthesis of National and Transnational in A. Konchalovsky's American Movies
Authors: Kurdiaev Grigoriy Igorevich
Published: February 2020

In September 2014 Andrey Konchalovskiy's White Nights of Postman Alexey Tryapitsyn won Silver Lion for the Best Director at the Venice Film Festival. European critics and advanced public have regularly marked endowments of the Soviet and Russian film director. Throughout his career he has received numerous awards at prestigious European film festivals. There are Crystal Globe in Karlovy Vary for the Romance for Lovers (1974), Grand Prix at Cannes for Sibiriada (1979), the main prizes of San Sebastian for Uncle Vanya (1971) and Homer and Eddie (1989). Meanwhile, Konchalovsky's success among American mass audience and critics has been much more modest, though Andrey Konchalovsky was the first in the early 1980s, since the time of the first wave of Russian 1910-20's emigration, who attempted to connect deeply national, Russian spirit with Hollywood production technology-oriented international strategy in his works. Being established in the Soviet Union as an esteemed author, Konchalovskiy decided to change the film industry to start over his career. Nowadays, in the context of the festival success in the European and Soviet/Russian cinema circles and the lack of attention in the United States, a question arises, if one can consider this attempt as successful one. In this article the author tries identify Russian national motives, which the filmmaker has introduced into Hollywood culture through his creative method, and those originally Hollywood themes and topics that have appeared for the first time in the works of the recognized Soviet director. Basing on Konchalovskys American works the author tries to elicit creative value in their national and transnational synthesis and expose the extent of their productivity and sensemaking.
From Greek Tragedy To Opera-Film
Authors: Kropova Daria Sergeevna
Published: February 2020

There are some common features between opera (film-opera and theater-opera) and the Greek tragedy. Hereafter a question arises: why theoreticians and artists try to revive tragedy - what is so important in ancient drama that remains actual up to date? The author argues, that musical drama (opera) is the successor to the Greek tragedy, whereas cinema exposes musical and ancient nature of the opera clearer, than theater. The author dwells upon new possibilities of opera: different ways ofcooperation between musical and visual constituents, differences between stage and screen operas; advantages of the film-opera. The screen adaptation of opera is very actual and has special aspects. It is obvious, that opera enriches cinema language and cinema reforms traditional theatrical musical drama. There is a number of works, which are devoted to the problem of the opera- film (mostly written by music experts), but there are no special research on the part of cinema theoreticians. Cinema-opera differs from theater-opera. Cooperation between image and music is defined by specific features of the camera. The opportunities of cinema are wider in some aspects and may advance reform of stage. Integration of arts in opera-film is connected with integration of arts in the Greek tragedy. The Athenian drama, grown up from ancient cults, is connected with ancient rituals. Since the ancient sources of drama find their reflection in film-opera, the latter reaches out these cults.
Interaction of Artistic Culture of Russia and Scandinavian Countries at the turn of the 19th-20th Centuries
Authors: Kharitonova Natalya Stepanovna
Published: February 2020

The author examines similarity of historical and cultural development of Russia and Scandinavian countries. Cultural ties between the two domains evolved over many centuries. The most intensive period of development of Russian-Scandinavian artistic contacts stretched from mid-1880s-1890s up to the end of the first decade of the 20th century. In 1890s Russian painters considered achievements of Scandinavian colleagues as an example of a quest for progress, a creative approach to finding ones way in development of fine arts. At the same period in Russia a number of major international art exhibitions were arranged with active northern painters participation. The Russian interest in the art of Scandinavian countries in the late 19th - early 20th c. was anything but accidental. The development of artistic culture in Nordic countries was in tune with the Russian artists quest for other ways of creative expression. Northern culture attracted sympathy of Russian painters, black-and-white artists and art critics of diverse, often opposing groups and movements. For example, among the admirers of Scandinavian fine arts were V.V. Stasov and A.N. Benoit, I.E. Repin, V.A. Serov, F.A.Malyavin, the artists of the "Mir iskusstva group, and representatives of Moscow School of Painting (K. Korovin, A. Arkhipov, V. Perepletchikov etc.). By mid-1890s relations of Russian and Scandinavian art schools had become very intense and productive. This interaction coincided with significant events that influenced further development of artistic and other forms of culture on both sides. It manifested itself in publications of works of A. Strinberg and K. Hamsun in Russian, in staging of H. Ibsens plays at the Moscow Art Theater, exhibitions (especially of A.Tsorns works), and other activities that served to cross-fertilisation of cultures of Russia and Scandinavian countries.

Documentaries, 21st Century: Time to Sum Up
Authors: Poznin Vitaly F
Published: February 2020

During the last fifteen years in the Russian documentaries dominated creative trend characterized by passionless, objectivist fixing of reality, mainly the negative sides of it. Today, the so-called actual cinema is under crisis, and that determines the relevance of the study summing up some of the processes that have taken place in the Russian documentary cinema in the late 20th-early 21st century. The author examines the causes of uprise and development of the objectivist, naturalistic approach to the fixing of reality and showing the negative aspects of it in Russian documentaries. The primary reason for this phenomenon is connected with the changes in the social system of the country, which has led to the loss of ethical and aesthetic guidelines. The critical perception of reality in a number of contemporary documentaries is the antithesis to the Soviet documentaries with its trend to show predominantly positive aspects of life. As for the rejection of contemporary realities, it can be explained by the desire of film directors to distance themselves from the glamorous approach in the interpretation of reality customary a contemporary TV. And finally, there was the purely practical reason, namely poor theatre and TV distribution that forced the filmmakers to focus on the festival jury and film critics supporting this orientation. Another problem of contemporary Russian documentary lies in the fact of the elimination of the state documentary studios that has led to a general fall of professionalism in this field. The availability of digital video which appeared at this time and easiness of shooting and editing technology allowed to create documentaries by those who could not tell an interesting documentary story. The result of this process is a decline of spectators interest towards documentaries. It can be predicted that the development of new forms of financing documentaries and promoting them to the viewer, will significantly change the aesthetic content of Russian documentary films and return the interest of the audience to this kind of cinema.

Metaphor in Cinema: Specifics of its Creation and Perception
Authors: Poznin Vitaliy F
Published: February 2020

The main feature of a metaphor is the transfer of the characteristics of one object to another one, i.e. categorical shift of meanings and a new semantic content arising as a result of it. Unlike the linguistic metaphor, which is actually a tightened, compressed similarity or contiguity, the local cinema metaphor as a rule is a visual comparison of specific objects. The author analyzes the difference and interaction of verbal and visual metaphors. Some features of creating a non-diegetic cinema metaphor are like a mechanism of creating a hieroglyph, because screen metaphors are often a way of describing an abstract concept through the connection of images of concrete objects. A particular object can acquire a metonymic and metaphorical meaning due to the context of episode. For modern figurative language of cinema a diegetic metaphor is more organic, because this one is a part of the screen narration. A significant role in the creation of the diegetic screen metaphor plays both the previous experience and the short-term memory of the viewer, helping him/ her to apprehend the metaphor. The questions considered in the article are just a small part of the theory of screen metaphor, which includes the consideration of such kinds of metaphor as orientational (spatial), conceptual, dynamic, color and sound metaphor, as well as analysis of a metaphor usage in different genres of animation, documentary, comedy.

Głównym inicjatorem przedterminowych wyborów był lider Serbskiej Partii Postępowej (SNS) i pierwszy wicepremier Aleksander Vučić, który liczył na umocnienie w ich następstwie swojej władzy.

Bu makalenin amacı bilimdeki gelişmeler ile
beraber dilin de genişlediğini göstermektir. Fiziğe katılan yeni teoriler
beraberinde çok ciddi sorunları gündeme getirmiştir. Özellikle görelilik ve
kuantum teorileri olarak da bilinen “yeni fizik”, önümüze açılan bilimsel
gerçekliğe ayak uydurabilme adına bizleri uygun bir bilim dili arayışına mecbur
bırakmıştır.

Determinist-mekanist şemayı zedeleyen yeni fizik,
bilimsel camianın kullandığı dilin algılayış biçimini de değiştirmiştir. Bu
durum sadece bilim insanlarının değil bu dili kullanan birçok kesimin de
bilimsel gerçekliği tanımlamak için kullandıkları gündelik dili değiştirme
ihtiyacını hissettirmiştir. Diğer bir ifadeyle bu durum yeni fizikle beraber
fizikte kullanılan kavramların türlerini ve alanlarını da değiştirmiştir.

Authors: Pagliaro Mario
Published: February 2020

Originally created for facilitating scientific communication, the internet in principle makes scientific journals no longer necessary. Yet, in an almost opposite fashion to what happened to newspaper publishing, the $25 billion annual income scholarly publishing industry has further flourished following the advent of the internet. Expanding the education of today’s students and young researchers to include modern scholarly communication is the key requisite for the transition to open science.

Investigation on Peritectic Solidification Morphologies by Using the Binary Organic Model System TRIS-NPG
Authors: Mogeritsch Johann P. , Abdi Mehran , Ludwig Andreas
Published: February 2020

Under pure diffusive growth conditions, layered peritectic solidification is possible. In reality, the competitive growth of the primary alfa-phase and the peritectic beta-phase revealed some complex peritectic solidification morphologies due to thermo-solutal convection. The binary organic components TRIS-NPG were used as model system for metal-like solidification. The transparency of the high-temperature non-faceted phases allows studying the dynamic of the solid/liquid interface which lead to peritectic solidification morphologies. Investigations were carried out by using the Bridgman technic for process conditions where one or both phases solidify in a non-planar manner. Different growth conditions were observed which led to competitive peritectic growth morphologies. Additionally, the competitive growth was solved numerically to interpret the observed transparent solidification patterns.
Proposal of A Non Linear Static Analysis Procedure for Bridges: The Incremental Modal Pushover Analysis for Bridges (IMPAβ)
Authors: Bergami Alessandro Vittorio , Nuti Camillo , Lavorato Davide , Fiorentino Gabriele , Briseghella Bruno
Published: February 2020

A large number of bridges are designed and built without considering seismic actions and, differently from buildings, there are currently no comprehensive guidelines to evaluate existing bridges without performing, as in the well known incremental dynamic analysis (IDA), complex non linear dynamic analyses (RHA). Bridges are structurally very different from building but, at the same time, are sensitive to higher modes as well as many multi-storey buildings that inspired innovative pushover procedures such as the well known modal pushover analysis (MPA). In the present study the incremental modal pushover analysis (IMPA), a pushover based approach already proposed and applied on buildings by the same authors, is revised and proposed for bridges (IMPAβ). IMPAβ accounts for the effects of higher modes in order to accurately estimate the seismic response of bridges; the effect of higher modes is considered by introducing a suitable number of modes to ensure the participation of a predefined total effective modal mass. The efficiency of the proposed method is demonstrated by conducting a study on two bridges, one regular and one irregular, and the IDA analysis is employed as reference solution. Numerical results indicate good accuracy of the proposed method in assessing the seismic response and a very good accuracy if compared to other available pushover procedures available in the literature.
Pulmonary Pathology of Early Phase SARS-COV-2 Pneumonia

Published: February 2020

There is currently a lack of pathologic data on the SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia, or COVID-19, from autopsy or biopsy. Two patients who recently underwent lung lobectomies for adenocarcinoma were retrospectively found to have had COVID-19 at the time of surgery. These two cases thus provide important first opportunities to study the pathology of COVID-19. Pathologic examinations revealed that, apart from the tumors, the lungs of both patients exhibited edema, proteinaceous exudate with globules, focal hyperplasia of pneumocytes with only patchy inflammatory cellular infiltration, and multinucleated giant cells. Hyaline membranes were not prominent. Since both patients did not exhibit symptoms of pneumonia at the time of surgery, these changes likely represent an early phase of the lung pathology of COVID-19 pneumonia.
Gini and Entropy Based Spread Indexes for Primary Energy Consumption Efficiency and CO2 Emission

Published: February 2020

Primary energy consumption is one of the key drivers of global CO2 emissions that, in turn, heavily depend on the efficiency of involved technologies. Either the improvement in technology efficiency or the expansion of non-fossil fuel consumption require large investments. The planning and financing of such investments, by policy makers or global energy firms, require, in turn, reliable measures of associated global spreads and their evolution in time. In this paper, our main contribution is the introduction of index measures for accessing global spreads (that is, measures of inequality or inhomogeneity in the statistical distribution of a related quantity of interest) of technology efficiency and CO2 emission in primary energy consumption. These indexes are based on the Gini index, as used in economical sciences, and generalised entropy measures. Regarding primary energy sources, we consider petroleum, coal, natural gas and non-fossil fuels. Between our findings, we attest some stable relations in the evolution of global spreads of technology efficiency and CO2 emission, and a positive relation between changes in global spreads of technology efficiency and use of non-fossil fuel.

Published: February 2020

Our main objective in this work was to examine the possibility of non-intrusive, label-free, detection of whole Zika viruses using terahertz signals with or without a targeting/binding oligonucleotide (aptamers). We report for the first time the use of terahertz electromagnetic waves (0.75 THz – 1.1 THz) to detect Zika viruses. The Zika/aptamer complexes showed a reproducible terahertz reflection coefficient minimum at 1.064 THz while the Zika virus’s reflection minimum was at 1.073 THz. Of different substrates we examined, the polyester petri dish provided a very low loss and excellent terahertz transmission. To increase the interaction between the terahertz signal and the sample we also used polyester microbeads coated with aptamers. We then measured the terahertz reflection from the microbeads as a function of Zika concentration. The resulting terahertz Zika sensor had sensitivity of 63 Hz/Zika and minimum detectable signal of ~ 16x103 Zika. Other substrates such as Graphene on polyethylene terephthalate (PET), 50 nm-thick gold film on polycarbonate, thin (30 um-thick) glass slide and Teflon were also examined. Graphene substrate enabled direct detection of the Zika without any aptamers.

The 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) causes novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP). Given that approved drug repurposing becomes a common strategy to quickly find antiviral treatments, a collection of FDA-approved drugs can be powerful resources for new anti-NCP indication discoveries. In addition to synthetic compounds, Chinese Patent Drugs (CPD), also play a key role in the treatment of virus related infections diseases in China. Here we compiled major components from 38 CPDs that are commonly used in the respiratory diseases and docked them against two drug targets, ACE2 receptor and viral main protease. According to our docking screening, 10 antiviral components, including hesperidin, saikosaponin, rutin, baicalin, glycyrrhizin, mulberroside A, puerarin, orientin, amygdalin, and ilexgenin A, can directly bind to both host cell target ACE2 receptor and viral target main protease, indicating their potential for 2019-nCoV treatment.

The hydrological process that occurs in a watershed is related to erosion process, sediment transport and downstream deposition. Land use changes and watershed management practices will also affect erosion and sedimentation. The purpose of this study was to determine the magnitude of flowrate, suspended load concentration (suspended load), and floating sediment discharge and correlation of floated sediment discharge and flowrate at the Data’ River. Measuring river characteristics is done by measuring river water flow and river slope. Sediment collection floated with EWI (equal with incerentment) method. Laboratory analysis was carried out by calculating the amount of flow discharge, sediment concentration, and sediment discharge. The results showed the lowest amount of flow discharge occurred on 17/12/2016 with a value of 0.271 m3/s with a floating sediment concentration of 17.167 mg / L, and the sediment discharge floated at 0.402 tons/day. The correlation between flow discharge and floating sediment discharge using a sccatter diagram shows that the determination value R2 is 0.9754 with the equation y = 0.1x + 0.4355.
