Authors: Gritsaev Sergei Ivanovich , Meretukov Gaysa Mosovich
Published: October 2023

The object of the study is the crimes provided for in Articles 285.1 and Article 285.2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, as well as the activities of the subject of the investigation in general and to verify reports of misuse of budgetary funds, in particular. The subject of the study was the regularities of the preparation, commission and concealment of this group of crimes, as well as the regularities of the activities of law enforcement agencies to identify, investigate and disclose them. When forming conclusions, the authors were guided by the analysis of the norms of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, other laws regulating the verification of reports on this group of crimes and the conduct of their investigation, the provisions of general criminalistic theories, materials of investigative and judicial practice (materials of 148 criminal cases considered in the courts of the Southern Federal District of the Russian Federation are summarized). The authors consider in detail the investigator's verification of the report on the misuse of budgetary funds, with special attention being paid to the problems of using the means of its implementation. The study used dialectical, logical, statistical, formal and legal research methods, as well as the method of legal modeling. The authors note that when conducting an audit of a report on the misuse of budgetary funds, the investigator needs to use the full range of means specified in Part 1 of Article 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation. The conducted research made it possible to establish that these funds are sufficient for its implementation, at the same time, their insufficiently detailed regulation in the criminal procedure Law creates difficulties when investigating a crime report. The authors offer organizational and tactical recommendations that will avoid negative consequences when receiving explanations, requesting documents, appointing examinations, etc. At the same time, the authors point out that a complete solution to this problem requires fixing a clear and detailed procedure for using means of verifying a crime report in the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation.

Published: October 2023

The subject of the study is a comparison of funding sources for public health care in OECD countries. The authors consider in detail the sources of financial support for the implementation of state guarantees for the provision of free medical care to citizens: transfers from state internal revenues (primarily general taxes: mandatory payments that do not have a target link) and insurance premiums (mandatory payments with a specific target link). The authors grouped the OECD countries depending on the share of sources of financial support for the implementation of state guarantees for the provision of free medical care to citizens. Particular attention is paid to the advantages and disadvantages of insurance and budgetary financial mechanisms for financial support for the implementation of state guarantees for the provision of free medical care. The main conclusions based on the results of the study are as follows: in the modern world, issues of improving the healthcare system as one of the key factors in improving the quality of life of citizens are being actively raised; no matter how actively the budgetary financial mechanism is currently used in the country, its use by public authorities in OECD countries is constantly increasing; the use of the budgetary financial mechanism, despite the existing shortcomings, has a number of advantages compared to the insurance one (primarily, due to the smaller direct impact during periods of reduction in the number of employees and wages, as well as economies of scale in the administration of revenues in the form of general taxes compared to insurance contributions). The results obtained can be used in the practical activities of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, the Government of Russia, the Federal Compulsory Medical Insurance Fund, as well as public authorities from other countries when modernizing the state policy in the field of healthcare.

The article examines the place and role of the Chinese language in the linguistic landscape of the campus of the Peoples' Friendship University of Russia named after Patrice Lumumba. The subject of the study is written public texts in Chinese, posted on the university campus (announcements, signs, posters, etc.). The material collected by the continuous sampling method was analyzed from the positions of the addressees of the texts, their subject matter and multilingualism, and also evaluated from the point of view of compliance with the norms of the Chinese language in the texts. The effectiveness of Chinese-language written communication was assessed using a survey of Chinese-speaking students. The place of the Chinese language in the linguistic landscape of the university campus is described; it is noted that written communication in Chinese on campus plays an important role both in the educational process and in everyday interaction. At the same time, conclusions about the insufficient representation and limited thematic diversity of Chinese-language texts were drawn. Recommendations for improving written communication in Chinese are proposed, which will help optimize the process of adaptation of students from China, increase their awareness, which will generally have a positive impact on the ergonomics of the communicative space, as well as increase the status of the Chinese language in the language landscape of an internationally oriented university.
Invariant and Variability Boundaries as Indicators of the Translation Adequacy (Exemplified by Contemporary American Prose)
Authors: Zhulidov Sergei Borisovich , Zolotova Marina Vianorovna , Kostin Aleksei Yur'evich
Published: October 2023

The object of the study is the novel "The Collector" by the American writer Nora Roberts. Interrelation of the contents’ meaning invariant and its variability inevitably springing up in the fiction translation process due to linguistic as well as extra-linguistic factors is analytically considered. Special heed is paid to the transcendence of the admissible or «tolerated» variability which is bound not only to infringe the translation invariant, but also to distort the original contents’ meaning as well as its distinctive stylistic features. Examples in the form of textual excerpts borrowed from the original and its published translation are compared and juxtaposed on the basis of the detailed linguistic examination of the voluntary deviations from the original made up by the translator both involuntarily, i.e. erroneously, and deliberately. They consist mostly either of the source text’s contents omission or introduction of his/her personal dysfunctional, redundant, and completely unjustified additional information to the target text. The examples are mainly classified according to the factors causing either the variability of the source text or its meaning’s distortion as well as to the effectiveness of various means aimed to protect the translation invariant. In most cases, the authors suggest their own equivalent versions of either omitted or distorted original’s excerpts as appropriate contextual correspondences. The authors conclude that such excessive variability in the translation of the novel into Russian distorted the general meaning of the original, changed its semantics and stylistics.

EXPERIENCE OF THE NARRATIVE APPROACH IN FOREIGN EDUCATIONAL PRACTICE
Authors:   Lugansk State Pedagogical University, Lugansk, LPR, Russia, Maksimenko A.A.
Published: October 2023

Achieving educational goals to improve the quality of education is increasingly associated with a narrative approach. Personally oriented education focuses on the development of a creative, thinking, self-developing personality. The organization of the educational process is associated with the introduction of narrative practices to activate the position of the student, reflection of his own and acquired experience of cognition of being. The organic nature of learning through narrative is associated with the natural ability and need of a person to structure his experience and realize himself in society in a plot-related narrative. Didactic material has been used for many centuries to accumulate and transfer knowledge and form the necessary personality traits. In order to systematize and identify promising areas for using the narrative approach in the educational process, a theoretical analysis and generalization of scientific literature was carried out. The hermeneutic method contributed to the understanding of the polyvariance of narrative practices, the need to correlate them with the educational situation and educational goals. Perceiving the world through the prism of the mediator’s contemplation, students are influenced by the personal attitudes of the teacher to accompany the student in the educational environment. The creation of a favorable variable environment depends on the narratives used by the tutor as a means of presentation. Decision-making is influenced by the personal experience of students, which appeals to the narrative, regardless of whether it will be voiced in the classroom or will remain only in the mental consciousness without being embodied in a verbal form. Applying narrative practices in the learning process, the future specialist reaches the level of reflection on the range of professional knowledge. The narrative approach in teaching an academic discipline contributes to the formation of the personality of a competent specialist who is able to apply knowledge outside the education system and promotes self-improvement.

Published: October 2023

Nowadays there is an increasing demand in society for specialists functioning at a high intellectual level, capable of producing new intellectual results not only in their native language, but also in foreign languages. This is especially important in the profession of a pediatrician, as the pediatrician is required to be ready for positive verbal interaction with the child. He or she must be able to establish contacts with his or her parents, as well as be able to consciously and independently choose means of treatment depending on the diagnosis of the patient. The article presents an analysis of the concepts of “abilities”, “intellectual abilities”, and a classification of their types. The authors present a series of intellectual games in a foreign language. The authors define the key concept of “intellectual ability” as a kind of individual’s abilities to create unique mental results of his cognitive actions and mental operations and apply them in various situations of professional communication in different languages. Special attention should be paid to the development of intellectual abilities in Russian universities, including foreign languages classes. It is necessary to activate the cognitive processes of students-pediatricians, to stimulate their thinking. To achieve this goal, the teacher is offered to create various problem-based situations and to present the students with problem-based tasks. The authors conclude that the use of intellectual games in foreign languages can significantly enhance the development of intellectual abilities of future pediatricians. The authors also propose criteria for diagnosing the intellectual abilities of future pediatricians in a medical university within the framework of a series of intellectual games.

In this work, an artificial neural network (ANN) model was developed with the aim of predicting heat transfer coefficient for shell and tube heat exchanger. Using the model, the influence of the control parameter on the accuracy of forecasting was studied. The ANN was designed with two input layers. The first input layer contains historical process data including temperatures and material stream flow rates. The second input layer was supplied with future values of the control parameter. The prediction accuracy was compared with the work of the ANN without the second input layer by two statistical indicators: the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and the coefficient of determination (R2). The increase in values is MAPE = 4,0%, R2 = 0,06. The use of this approach improves the results of forecasting and makes it possible to develop an algorithm for selecting the optimal change in the control parameter.

Stress Analysis of Existing Underground Gas Pipeline due to New Road Crossing with ODOL Transportation
Authors: Tsamara Taqiya , Puja IGN Wiratmaja
Published: October 2023

Pipelines are the main choice for transport oil and gas due to its resilience, reliability, safety, and lower cost. Most road crossing pipelines are located underground where protections from the loads can be used such as additional pavement. Underground road crossing pipelines withstand stresses caused by the internal load, earth load, and live load. These loads are affected by the pipe and fluid specifications, soil and environment data, and also the vehicle data. Over dimension and over loading (ODOL) vehicles are a very common problem found in Indonesia. Hence, a stress analysis towards the underground road crossing pipeline being crossed by ODOL vehicles are relevant. A manual calculation of the stress analysis can be done by using API RP 1102: “Steel Pipelines Crossing Railroads and Highways”. A stress analysis using the finite element method (FEM) is conducted using a computer software, namely Abaqus, which also shows the displacement of the pipeline. The case study is an underground road crossing pipeline with depth of 8 feet and uses rigid pavement. The use of rigid pavements over the soil decreases the stress experienced by the pipeline. The results of the total effective stress show a value of 4,785 psi which is still within the allowable range. The stress is found to be directly proportional to the displacement value obtained using FEA. By conducting parametric studies, it is also found that the total effective stress decreases as the burial depth of the pipe is larger.

Authors: Olabaniye Kuboye , Ngolo Oyedele  , Charles Scott
Published: October 2023

The consequences of these earthquake waves cause damage to buildings ranging from light damage to heavy damage. Dealing with the case, it is necessary to plan and implement earthquake-resistant building structures, especially in high-rise buildings. Another factor that needs to be considered is the function of the room which affects the column height when the column height is different and it causes uneven stiffness from the ground floor to the top.

The aim of this study was to find out the effect of variations in column height on the performance of multi-storey building structures in terms of shear forces, floor drift and buckling load (Pc). The method used in this study was the response spectrum method. The spectrum response is the maximum response of a Single Degree of Freedom (SDOF) structural system, both acceleration, velocity and displacement due to the structure being loaded by a certain external force. Before carrying out the analysis using the response spectrum method, a structural model was undertaken by varying the column height on the 1st floor into 3 variations.

Dealing with the results of the analysis on the building structure model with varying column height on the 1st floor, it indicated that the higher the column the maximum base shear force value increases. The higher the 1st floor column, the maximum floor deviation value increases. The higher the column the value of the column slenderness ratio increases and the Euler buckling load decreases.

Authors: Dejan kurlov  , Tej Marcovic
Published: October 2023

Peat soil was categorized as soft soil, which means that the soil is in bad condition and problematic when construction was built on it. It was necessary to increase the carrying capacity of peat soils, one of which is chemical stabilization of the soil, by adding additives that can react with the soil and using new environmentally friendly methods.

In this study, samples of peat soil were taken from Buana Makmur Village km55, Dayun District, Siak Regency. The stabilizing agent used was sand as much as 5% by weight of dry soil, Bacillus Subtilis bacteria obtained from the Agriculture Laboratory of the Islamic University of Riau, and also CaCL₂ and Urea. The method for stabilizing the physical properties of peat soil in this study is the Bio-Grouting method, testing the physical properties of peat soil follows the procedures of ASTM (American Society For Testing And Materials) and SNI 1965-2008 for testing methods for determining water content for soil and rock in the laboratory. SNI 1964-2008 test method for soil specific gravity, SNI 8460-2017 geotechnical design requirements, SK SNI -04-05-1989-F fine sand used for construction, SNI-02-2801-1998 urea standard. To test the physical properties was carried out by providing variations in the mixing of bacterial cementation solutions with levels of 0% (without treatment), 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25% and then allowed to stand for 14 days using a tightly closed plastic container.

The results of testing the physical properties of peat soil found that the peat soil was included in the original soil type with water content = 407.45% and specific gravity (Gs) = 1.30gr, while from the physical properties tests carried out the highest water content occurred in the addition of bacterial cementation solution 10% = 177.2% and the lowest specific gravity occurs when the bacterial cementation solution is added 10% = 1.27gr.

This study explores the potential of magnetic stones on Mount Penanggungan and their relation to history and myths circulating in the community and climbers. This research is important to do in order to minimize the rate of injury caused by fatigue for climbers on this mountain. In addition, aspects of physics and history can be implications for educators to deliver material on the subject. This research uses a qualitative design with the type of case study—data collection methods through observation, interviews, and document studies. The results of this study show that some rocks on Mount Penanggungan, especially when approaching their peak, have a magnetic field anomaly up to 4 times larger than the magnetic field on the earth’s surface, characterized by its darker color or cave walls. Based on the mythical and historical review, the role of magnetic stones underlies the reason ancient people performed hermitage on rocks and in Mount Penanggungan. This study implies that it can be information for climbers that rocks with a strong magnetic field magnitude can accelerate the relaxation of the body. In addition, educators can integrate this research’s findings, including physical phenomena and historical/mythical aspects on Mount Penanggungan, into learning.
Sensitivity Analysis of Geomechanics Influence on The Success of Hydraulic Fracturing in Shale Gas Reservoir
Authors: Hernomita Desti , Erfando Tomi
Published: October 2023

Shale gas has a permeability of <0.1 mD and a porosity of around 2% - 8% to produce gas that rises to the surface through hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling. Geomechanics is one of the important factors that influence the success of a hydraulic fracturing job. Technology in fractures makes geomechanics a clear factor in predicting the success or failure of rocks in deformation and knowing the properties that will be faced by fracture fluids which will later be used to see the effectiveness of fracture fluids in resisting fractures. High operational costs need to be studied further to determine the parameters that affect hydraulic fracturing work, especially from the geomechanical aspect to minimize production failures and work safety. The research conducted this time focuses on the sensitivity of geomechanical parameters by using CMG (GEM) reservoir simulations for reservoir models and conducting Response Surface Methodology (RSM) in selection and ease when applied in the field prior to the hydraulic fracturing process. In this sensitivity study carried out on 5 parameters namely stress, Poisson's ratio, Young's modulus, biot coefficient, and pore pressure. The geomechanical parameter that has the most influence on hydraulic fracturing work based on the sensitivity results carried out through 500 data sets using the Analysis of Variance obtained R2 = 0.99 with the results based on the importance value of the pore pressure variable of 3.8. Then Young's modulus is 0.28, stress is 0.12, Poisson's ratio is 0.08, and biot coefficient is 0.04.

Lutut Beds are the sandstone beds exposed in the northwest margin of Kendeng Basin, which contain abundant metamorphic-quartz grains, frequent recycled sedimentary quartz, and reworked bioclasts. Lutut Beds are not shown on the regional geological map and are often neglected in determining the geological history of Kendeng Basin. However, they have significant roles because it was deposited on the basin edge, which may carry important keys. This study aims to discover the larger and smaller foraminifera fossils contained in the Lutut Beds. Outcrop samples were collected in Kali Lutut and its surrounding area, including Lutut Beds and its overlying layers. Larger foraminifera was identified within 3 of 11 thin sections, mostly of Order Rotaliida, which occur as reworked bioclasts. The smaller foraminifera was barely found in most samples except for the samples from the overlying layers of Lutut Beds. The study reveals that Lutut Beds were deposited during Early to Middle Miocene, marked by the occurrence of Miogypsina sp. and Miogypsinoides sp. and also contains reworked Eocene – Early Oligocene larger foraminifera such as Nummulites sp., Discocyclina sp., and Dictyoconus sp. Besides, the overlying layer of Lutut Beds is identified to be deposited in the Middle Miocene to Pliocene based on the occurence of smaller planktonic foraminifera, Sphaeroidinella subdehiscens. The bathymetric interpretation based on smaller benthic foraminifera showed that Lutut Beds were deposited in the upper-middle bathyal zone. We also believe that the larger benthic foraminifera fossils in Lutut Beds were transported along the slope from its original life position. Accordingly, it is considered as allochthonous fossils.
Exploring The Mechanism Of Vetiver System For Slope Reinforcement On Diverse Soil Types – A Review
Authors: Ciawi Yenni , Hidayati Anissa Maria , Kedaton Kadek Hindhu , Tonyes Silvia Gabrina , Elizar
Published: October 2023

Landslide, one of the important geomorphological processes, is essentially a natural phenomenon that is often exacerbated by human-induced activities. A stable sloping terrain will tend to collapse when it is subjected to forces that tend to destabilise it. Slope instability is one of the main factors leading to disasters that might be catastrophic to the environment and human life. Since the beginning of the year 2000 only, thousands of fatalities annually occurred globally due to landslides. With its predominantly sloping topography, the landslide is also a frequent natural disaster in Indonesia. BNPB data stated that between 2013 and 2022, there were 7,297 recorded cases of landslides in the country with more than 100 casualties on one occasion. To mitigate the impact of this disaster, measures such as reinforcing slopes or implementing retaining walls in vulnerable areas are urgently required. In recent decades, bio-engineering techniques gain more attention in slope reinforcement by combining the mechanical and hydrological abilities of vegetation in erosion control and slope stabilisation. Vetiver grass is one of the vegetation species used in bioengineering techniques due to its low cost and more sustainable solutions in many infrastructure projects. In this paper, a qualitative literature review is conducted and processed using descriptive-analytical methods to address the mitigation of landslides and their potential domino effects on the economy and people's welfare.

The origin of metamorphic rock is greatly influenced by the temperature and pressure changes in every tectonic setting, especially in active subduction margins. One of the wide outcrops of metamorphic rock occurs in the Pringsewu District, Lampung, and it is a part of the Palaeozoic Gunung Kasih Complex. The presence of metamorphic rocks in Pringsewu has raised several questions and debates for some time due to the lack of research and field evidence found in this area, especially, since the origin of metamorphic rock in Lampung has been rarely studied. This research aims to determine the metamorphic rock facies and the tectonic setting underlying the formation of metamorphic rocks in the study area.

Petrographic analysis on 19 thin-section samples shows that metamorphic rock in the research area can be divided into two regions i.e., western and eastern regions. The Eastern part is characterized by muscovite-epidote schist and greenschist which consist of quartz, muscovite, actinolite, epidote, and garnet as index minerals. Whereas the western part is characterized by quartzite and biotite-epidote schist that consist of quartz, biotite, and muscovite. Based on the mineral index, metamorphic rock’s protoliths are pelitic rock, mafic rock, and quartz-feldspathic sandstone. The metamorphic rock zonation shows the created temperature is from 280-550oC.

The foliation structure such as schistose and porphyroblastic texture in the whole rocks sample indicated that metamorphic rocks are created in medium-grade metamorphism and are characterized by the greenschist facies to epidote-amphibolite facies. The abundance of quartz, k-feldspar, and labradorite minerals show that metamorphic rocks came from the microcontinent which was caused by a collision between the intra-oceanic Woyla plate and West Sumatra microcontinent in the Cretaceous. Indications of tectonic activity that create the lithology in Lampung Province need more geological study, especially to determine the absolute age of the metamorphic rock.
Integrated Use of Remote Sensing and GIS in estimating Soil Erosion in the Tukvar Tea Plantation Area, Darjeeling, India by RUSLE Modelling

Soil erosion is one of the major threats to food security and agricultural sustainability worldwide. Numerous factors including relief, slope, land use, land cover, rainfall pattern, soil texture, conservation techniques and anthropogenic factors, combine to cause soil erosion. The enormity and spatial distribution of soil erosion should be known for effectively assessing and mapping erosion-prone areas. In the hill region, soil loss is a significant component in decreasing stability and persistent loss causes landslides. So in order to study this, various soil erosion models have come up amongst which RUSLE has been adopted by many researchers. The goal of the current study is to forecast the projected soil loss in Tukvar tea plantations of the Darjeeling district. This study will provide an estimate of the amount and rate of erosion in the Darjeeling district's Tukvar tea plantations. This study revealed that the leading factors to soil erosion are slope factors and rainfall erosivity. The geo-coded reference of the geographic extent of soil erosion-prone areas will be useful for micro-level planning and will serve as a useful tool for managing and conserving soil.

Floods are natural disasters that cause losses and damages to lives, properties and the nature. The main objective of this study is to perform hydraulic analysis using HEC-RAS and to suggest measures to mitigate flood. The study area chosen for analysis is Vellayampalayam to Sathyamangalam stretch which is located along the Bhavani river. These areas are frequently affected due to flood. Field survey is carried out to determine cross section data (width, depth, elevation of the river stretch). Discharge is calculated using rational method. These data are feed as input into HEC-RAS model for simulation. From the results, it was found that the areas around the stretch chosen as study area are greatly affected by the floods. As per field condition, the channel improvement plans were suggested to mitigate the effects of flood.

The issues of comparative language learning are among the most relevant topics in modernlinguistics. The comparative typological method is especially important when studying the word-formationsystems of two languages in order to identify similarities and differences. Complex words actively replenishthe lexical stock of the language in all its functional varieties. There is a fairly voluminous layer of vocabularyof composite words representing the names of birds – ornithonyms. The abundance of composite words inthe Yakut and Altai languages used for naming birds, and the lack of work on their comprehensive researchand systematization indicates the need for scientific research of bird names. The purpose of this work isto study the lexical and semantic features and word-formation structures of composite words denoting thenames of birds in the Yakut and Altai languages. In order to achieve this goal, the following tasks are solved:identification of the functional meaning of composite words; consideration of the history of the study of birdnames in Turkic linguistics; systematization of bird names in the Yakut and Altai languages; establishmentof the main lexico-semantic groups, methods of formation and structural models of composite ornithonyms.This study uses a set of methods: comparative, descriptive and quantitative methods. The scientific noveltyof the work consists in the fact that the issues of comparative analysis of composite words denoting thenames of birds in the Yakut and Altai languages were not the subject of special study. The theoretical andpractical significance of the work is that its materials can be used in the study of composite ornithonyms inother Turkic languages, as well as in the development of lecture courses, seminars on vocabulary.
Comparisons in the Yakut epic: the case of olonkho of the northeastern tradition

The article considers comparison in the Yakut epic. The purpose of the article is to study poetic means in the epic texts of the Yakuts, in particular, a comparison in the northeastern tradition of the olonkho of the Yakuts. In the poetics of the northeastern tradition of olonkho, a thematic classification of comparisons is revealed. The basis of the classification will be the object of comparison, which in the mental activity of the listener of the olonkho was directed to the knowledge of the new “unfamiliar”. According to the thematic principle, the comparisons are divided into four groups: objects describing actions, nature, somatisms, dwellings and household items, and animals. The most common group are comparison objects that describe nature. We also divided the classification of comparisons according to two criteria: by composition and by structure. Structurally, the comparisons should be divided into simple and complex. Compound comparisons are differentiated as stepped and multiple comparisons. Stepped comparisons consist of a series of simple comparisons, each of which has its own object and image. Multiple comparisons with two or three components of repeated comparisons consist of one object and several images. The most numerous part is represented by these objects of comparison. In each multiple comparison, objects are usually expressed by homogeneous, semantically close predicates denoting the actions of the character. Complex comparisons, consistently revealing the course of actions, complement a certain image.
