JUSTIFICATION OF FORCE PARAMETERS FOR STABILIZATION OF RING BLANKS OF LOW RIGIDITY
Authors:   Joint Institute of Mechanical Engineering of the NAS of Belarus, ANTONYUK Vladimir E.
Published: June 2024

The necessity of stabilization of ring blanks of low rigidity is substantiated. For stabilization a 6-position loading scheme with uniformly distributed radial forces is proposed, with the possibility to transform into 3- and 2-position loading schemes. The stress state of the ring under loading by uniformly distributed radial forces is analyzed, and calculation dependences for determining the total stress at 6-, 3- and 2-position loading schemes are proposed. Calculation dependences are offered for determination of force parameters of the device with lever-joint mechanism for creation of stresses in the ring at the level of conditional yield strength. According to the proposed method of calculation of force parameters, an example of calculation is given for a ring made of 40ХМФА (40KhMFA) steel with an outside diameter of 392 mm. The developed recommendations can be used at creation of devices for stabilization and removal of residual stresses in ring blanks, which are necessary for manufacture of critical products in such areas as auto- and aircraft construction, precision engineering, military industry.

Authors:   JSC “Seismotekhnika”, KOTOV Andrey V.
Published: June 2024

An analytical method is presented for force analysis of plain lever mechanisms with one degree of freedom, based on the vector method. Using the example of a two-drive structural group, a method is outlined for finding reaction vectors in all its kinematic pairs, while maintaining the clarity and consistency of the solution inherent in the graphic-analytical method of diagrams of component forces. An original analytical description is given for finding the vectors of tangential and normal components of reactions in kinematic pairs. Application of the proposed method of force analysis makes it possisble to find reaction vectors in kinematic pairs without compiling and solving complex systems of equilibrium equations or graphical construction. Adaptation of the proposed force analysis in modern mathematical packages allows for the study of plain lever mechanisms with one degree of freedom in a short time and with high accuracy.
SUBSTANTIATION OF RATIONAL DESIGN OF CRANK MECHANISM OF A WHEEL-STEP MOVER
Authors:   Belarusian National Technical University, SKOYBEDA Anatol T. , ZHUKAVETS Vasili M. ,   Belarusian National Technical University
Published: June 2024

The article substantiates the rational design of the crank mechanism of a wheel-step mover. Kinematics analysis of a prototype of the wheel-step mover revealed the presence of oscillations in the vertical coordinate of the central axis during movement. To eliminate this drawback, differential geometry methods were used, thanks to which a method for calculating the non-circular profile of support shoes was created. Studies of the dynamics of the crank mechanism of the wheel-step mover showed that even in a steady state of motion, periodically acting inertial forces arise. To reduce their effect, non-circular gears should be used in the mover power drive. The dimensions of the crank mechanism links have been calculated, at which the cross-country ability of the running system, its kinematics and dynamics characteristics are improved, energy costs when laying a track are reduced, as well as the negative impact of the machine on the fertile soil layer. The polar coordinates of the involute points have been calculated. They are needed to construct the tooth profiles of non-circular gears. As the power drive of the crank mechanism, non-circular gears have symmetrical geometric parameters along two axes and provide a constant movement speed. Thus, the wheel-step running system can be used in agriculture, the timber industry, mining, and when working in emergency situations. The mover design being developed is intended for unmanned ground vehicles. This type of unmanned vehicles is at the initial stage of its development, inferior in frequency to air and marine unmanned vehicles. A targeted concentration of production and financial resources is necessary to ensure that domestic industry has a leading position in the production and sale of unmanned ground vehicles.

The studies’ results of the high-speed electrothermal treatment effect on the structure and hardness of various zones of welded joints made of low-alloy structural steel 10ХСНД (10KhSND) are presented. It is shown that carrying out high-speed electrothermal treatment at 950–980 °C leads to the formation of a homogeneous, fine-grained ferrite-perlite microstructure with practically unchanged hardness values in all zones of the welded joint except for the weld root, where slightly higher values of microhardness are registered.
INFLUENCE OF SUBMICROSCOPIC STRUCTURE OF “COPPER — BERYLLIUM” ALLOY ON SERVICE CHARACTERISTICS OF ELASTIC SENSING ELEMENTS
Authors:   Joint Institute of Mechanical Engineering of the NAS of Belarus, TOLSTOY Aliaksandr V.
Published: June 2024

The dependence of the properties of elastic sensitive elements made of beryllium bronze on the modes of their heat treatment is studied. It is shown that the duration of aging significantly affects the value of nonlinearity of elastic characteristic, hysteresis, shrinkage of elements and mechanical properties of membrane material (hardness, elastic limit). The relations between submicroscopic structure and properties of elastic elements are established. The greatest nonlinearity of the elastic characteristic, hysteresis and shrinkage belong to elements subjected to short-term aging at 310–350 °С. With increasing duration of aging, the corresponding values of the above parameters decrease. For aging temperatures 310–320 °С, the nonlinearity of elasticity characteristics reaches the minimum values after 4–5 h of aging, and for 340 °С — after 3 h. At 350 °С minimum values of nonlinearity are reached after aging duration of 45–60 min. From the obtained data it follows that from the point of view of obtaining the minimum hysteresis and nonlinearity characteristics of aneroid sensing elements made of bronze of БрБНТ-1,9Мг (BrBNT-1.9Mg) grade, heat treatment of membranes should be carried out according to the regimes of 1 h at 350 °С or 3 h at 340 °С.

Authors: Yohana Eflita , Haryanto Ismoyo , Adrian Dwiputra Muhamad , Luqmanul H Yusuf
Published: June 2024

Nowadays, the vibrating fluidized bed dryer is one of the most popular kinds of tea drying equipment available. The water content is lowered to 2.8–3.8 by applying the heat generated by the heater, which stops the enzyme-based oxidation process. The objective is to investigate how vibration affects a vibro-fluidized bed dryer's inherent frequency, structural integrity, and tea mass loading on the device. Tea powder is sprayed onto beds using vibro-fluidized bed dryers, which use an eccentric motor to create vibrations. Hot air flows from tiny holes in the bed into the tea powder that is circulating on it. After leaving the heating furnace, the hot air is directed through air ducts beneath the vibro-fluidized bed drier by the main fan. A cyclone extracts the tea powder and evaporates moisture, which is then released from the vibro-fluidized Bed dryer. Once disturbed, a system is allowed to vibrate on its own without external stimuli, oscillating at its natural frequency. As per the early analysis of the vibro-fluidized Bed Dryer, the dryer structure's normal frequency in the first three modes was 5.8876 Hz, followed by 9.5267 Hz and 10.512 Hz. The vibro-fluidized bed dryer structure's stress is within acceptable bounds when the safety factor for each loading variation is FS>1. The vibro-fluidization frequency of the bed dryer with a tea mass of 695 kg matches to the excitation frequency under real-world conditions. The tea mass supplied to the system increases with the natural frequency of the vibro-fluidized bed dryer. Static structure studies show that the von Misses stress of the vibro-fluid layer drying structure increases with the mass of tea added to the system. The largest von Mises stress was seen at a tea mass of 695 kg.

Published: June 2024

Adware, spyware, viruses, and other forms of malware are serious risks to people, companies, governments, and military activities. Advanced methods for vulnerability detection are required since traditional security measures frequently fall short in the face of complex and dynamic cyberthreats. In order to increase accuracy, adaptability, and scalability in discovering security vulnerabilities, this study investigates the incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) in the design of a wireless network penetration testing system, utilizing machine learning. The dataset used was BoTNeTIoT-L01, which has over 7 million records of IoT botnet attacks. Using the Keras library, a convolutional neural network (CNN) model with layers for convolution, max pooling, and dense was created. The Adam algorithm was then used to optimize the CNN model's training process. The model's remarkable 99.46% accuracy rate in categorizing assaults indicates how well it can detect security holes and adjusts to emerging threats. The results also confirm the capabilities of artificial intelligence in enhancing cybersecurity measures and ensuring strong protection in increasingly complex wireless network environments.

Investigation of Aerodynamics Behaviors, Shape of Feathers on Traditional Turkish Archery
Authors: BÜYÜKCURA Arif , GÖK Onur , NEŞELİ Süleyman
Published: June 2024

In traditional Turkish archery, a feather is attached to the back of the arrows to prevent them from changing direction during flight after being shot. While these attached feathers ensure that the arrow flies on a smooth route after being shot, it causes aerodynamic factors that affect the movement of the arrow due to its friction with the air. In the study, the effects of the geometry parameters of the feathers in the traditional Turkish arrow on the aerodynamic factors were comparatively examined. To examine the movements of the arrows in the air, aerodynamic analyzes were carried out by using computational fluid dynamics CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) for each arrow type, taking into account the changes in the flow drag force values. By examining the acoustic power level in decibel units, the performance of the arrows from the bow was evaluated in terms of range and sound, and the results obtained through CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) were compared.

The leaves of the Coleus amboinicus commonly consumed in North Sumatra, are known for their diverse benefits, including their use as a stimulant. These leaves contain various chemical compounds such as carvacrol, quercetin, and alkaloids. This study aims to determine the effectiveness and optimal dosage of the stimulant effects of the bangun-bangun leaf extract using the rotarod method. The extraction method used was maceration. The bangun-bangun leaf extract (EDB) was tested as a stimulant on 30 male mice, divided into six groups: negative control (CMC-na 5%), positive control (caffeine 0.36 mg), and treatment groups given different doses of ethanol extract EDB1 2.8 mg/20g bw; EDB2 5.6 mg/20g bw; EDB3 8.4 mg/20g bw, EDB4 11.2 mg/20g bw. After oral administration and a one-hour interval, the mice were placed on a rotarod and the duration of their endurance was observed. Statistical analysis showed that the endurance duration of the mice given EDB significantly differed from the negative control, indicating that EDB has a stimulant effect. EDB1 showed no significant difference with caffeine, implying its stimulant effect is comparable to caffeine. Meanwhile, EDB2, EDB3, and EDB4 showed higher endurance duration and significant differences with caffeine, implying that these EDB doses have a stronger stimulant effect than caffeine. However, there was no significant difference between EDB3 and EDB4.

A germinação representa um dos principais desafios para a propagação da espécie Endopleura uchi. Mesmo em condições favoráveis, esse processo pode levar de 1 a 2 anos. Nesse contexto, o presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a viabilidade das sementes de Endopleura uchi submetidas a tratamentos pré-germinativos. Foram examinados os seguintes métodos: tratamento 1 – controle; tratamento 2 – imersão em água natural + desponte + substrato de areia; tratamento 3 – escarificação em quatro linhas longitudinais ao eixo do pirênio + choque térmico em água a 100°C + substrato de areia; tratamento 4 – desponte + choque térmico em água a 100°C + substrato de areia com cobertura de serapilheira; tratamento 5 – exposição do pirênio ao fungo Pycnoporus sp. + substrato de areia; tratamento 6 – pirênio sem qualquer beneficiamento exposto a condições ambientais. Adicionalmente, a degradação dos pirênios foi avaliada em termos de perda de massa. Os resultados revelaram que nenhum dos métodos testados promoveu eficientemente a germinação das sementes de Endopleura uchi durante o período de avaliação. Observou-se, ainda, que, quanto maior a perda de massa, mais deformado o pirênio se apresentou. No que diz respeito à viabilidade das sementes, os resultados indicaram uma baixa taxa de viabilidade, com 9% para o T2 e 3% para o T1 e o T5. Esses resultados sugerem a necessidade de buscar e identificar outros métodos pré-germinativos capazes de degradar o pirênio, preservando a semente de modo a possibilitar sua germinação. Assim, conclui-se que o objetivo não foi alcançado com os tratamentos avaliados, o que destaca a necessidade de investigações mais aprofundadas nessa área

Authors:   Department of Physics, Faculty of Science, Kyoto Sangyo University, Kyoto, Japan, Ohmori Takashi
Published: June 2024

A method of geoengineering/solar radiation management is proposed as global warming countermeasure. The idea is to decrease surface temperature by increasing stratospheric ozone. One-dimensional (vertical) radiative-convective equilibrium temperature calculations show that surface temperature can be lowered by increasing the amount of ozone in the stratosphere. It was the increase in altitude above about 25 km that reduced surface temperatures. The method of increasing the amount of ozone (O3 injection), the rate of decrease of surface temperature after the ozone increase, and the rate of decrease of ozone concentration by photochemical reaction and diffusion/transport after the ozone increase are discussed.

Authors: Shesterina Alla M.
Published: June 2024

One of the key tasks of modern video advertising, distributed mainly in the network environment and on television, is to attract and retain consumer attention. In a situation of increased competition and intensifi ed information exchange, this task becomes even more urgent. One of the tools for its implementation can be dominant metaprograms. Based on the analysis of modern audiovisual advertising media content based on the content analysis method and the textual method, the article examines the process of authors’ appeal to metaprograms. Based on an analysis of more than a hundred videos, a conclusion is made about the dominance of a number of meta-programs. It is indicated that the most popular meta-program is “people”, which personalizes content and makes it recognizable. Most often, easily recognizable heroes are used as characters in such advertising. Another popular meta-program is “values.” Its authors appeal to the basic values of the audience and advertise objects of material nature through them. Other popular meta-programs include “resemblance” (shows a character close to the audience or plays out recognizable situations), “process” (there is an obvious development of the plot with elements such as plotting, development of action, climax and resolution) and “past” (carries out appeal to the historical or recent past). It is noted that, along with the dominant meta-program, other meta-programs may be present to varying degrees in advertising video content. It is also emphasized that advertising that appeals to the maximum number of meta-programs can be considered the most successful.
LINGO-PSYCHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF THE POSSIBILITIES OFACTUAL GENERATIVE LANGUAGE MODELS IN POLITICAL DISCURSIVE PRACTICES (ON THE EXAMPLE OF CHAT GPT)
Authors: Ziryanova Irina N. , Chernavskiy Alexander S.
Published: June 2024

This article is a theoretical and practical generalization based on the results of an experiment conducted by the authors in the spring of 2023 as part of a joint project of Moscow Pedagogical State University and Baikal State University. This project was carried out by the Department of Political Science at Moscow State Pedagogical University and the Department of Theoreticaland Applied Linguistics at BSU, which carried out scientifi c research on the topic of research work “Language and Man”. Despite the emphasis on relevant applied results in this publication, the authors also provide a brief theoretical overview to understand the main historical and theoretical-methodological aspects of the research topic. An interdisciplinary approach to the use of modern generative language models in current political discourse is the basis of this work. Neural network generative language algorithms already provide unique opportunities for creating a variety of content, including the political sphere. In addition, the authors offer a brief analytical overview of modern psychological and linguistic techniques of manipulation, which continue to develop and play a signifi cant role in modern political discourse. The article also contains an overview of contemporary scientifi c knowledge related to the stated research topic. At the same time, the authors see the main goal of the work in a theoretical and applied study of the current potential of the leading publicly available generative language model Chat GPT (4.0) in the fi eld of political discourse using suggestive techniques and manipulations. The basis of this study was the author’s corresponding bilingual requests for the generation of three texts of a manifestational and ideological nature, which then became the object of psychological and linguistic analysis. At the end of the experiment, brief fi nal analytical statements were formulated in the context of the stated topic. The authors come to the conclusion that generative language models can already be widely used today to create a wide variety of media content in different forms of communication, while quite complex linguistic constructions can be implemented according to appropriate requests.
FOLKLORE BEGINNING IN THE STRUCTURE OF MODERN TELEVISION CONTENT
Authors: Tretyakov Vitaly T.
Published: June 2024

The current stage of development of audiovisual media requires comprehension from the point of view of the essential component. The content of leading TV channels today is distinguished by its undoubted and frequent appeal to folklore forms. The article, based on the analysis of the content of modern television broadcasts, identifi es elements of folklore in various television genres and formats. The reasons for the intensifi cation of the folklore component in modern media are noted: the penetration of non-professionals into the system of modern television production, massifi cation of the audience, a partial decline in moral standards and taboos. The forms of manifestation of folklore are recorded in the entertainment sector of audiovisual media. Therole of laughter culture in the development of folklore on television is especially emphasized. The anecdotalization of television content is stated. Specifi c features of the implementation of the folklore principle are established: pragmatics, professionalization, scientifi c character. The conclusion is made about the inevitable development of folklore in the media in general and on television in particular.
COMMUNICATIVE CULTURAL PRACTICES OF DEVELOPMENT OF MEMORATIVE LANDSCAPE (BASED ON THE EXAMPLE OF ARKAIM)
Authors: Kiselev Denis G.
Published: June 2024

The article examines various manifestations of identity types that materialize in the memorial landscape using the example ofArkaim, an archaeological site in the Chelyabinsk region. The theoretical basis of the study was the “theory of social identity”. Based on intensive observations and seven interviews with visitors to Arkaim, a conclusion is drawn about through which objects identity is refl ected in the memorial landscape. They become, for example, the tops of hills and stone slabs. The rituals performed by visitors to Arkaim are usually associated with religion or have their origin in historically established folk traditions. Moreover, such rituals are traditional for those peoples whose many generations live in the Urals (where the archaeological monument Arkaim itself is located). The result of the study is the conclusion that in Arkaim people most often do not strive to fi nd new practices and rituals, but to repeat those already familiar to them. The goal of such visitors is, fi rst of all, to achieve the fulfi llment of some desire. Researchers believe that the motivation to turn to the natural landscape for their implementation is the search for and acquisition of one’s own identity. This can be achieved precisely by conducting ceremonies and rituals on the landscape objects of the Arkaim monument.
Armed Conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo: A Moral-Rational Review and Need for a Functional Explanatory Framework in Understanding of African Armed Conflicts
Authors: Lomami Francis
Published: June 2024

Purpose: This paper grapples with the complex and multifaceted nature of the Congolese armed conflict from 1993 to 2003 through literature and theoretical debates. It poses the intriguing question of how analytical views and theoretical assumptions on this Congolese armed conflict inform one about the impact of moral and rational considerations and proceeds to highlight the moral and rational layers of the conflict.  The paper reflects on immoral and irrational mechanisms, processes, behaviors, and decisions as factors that made this conflict a deeply harrowing experience, with a staggering number of non-liable civilian deaths and devastating consequences since World War II.
Methodology: This paper used content analysis to unravel the trajectory of the Congolese armed conflict through a comprehensive document review of its historical and theoretical analysis. It employed a unique approach of critical moral reasoning to dissect moral and rational questions of the conflict's various causes, dimensions, actors, networks, and involved interests, thereby providing a fresh perspective on the conflict. 
Findings: This paper revealed moral lapses in the Congolese armed conflict's occurrence, development, and resolution from its origins in local identity-based disputes to its transformation into one of the most protracted, deadly, and destructive cycles of violence. The paper found that the conflict's moral and rational aspects were, in their right, essential aggravating features because they impacted its status determination and development from its onset to the peacebuilding process, and a framed functional moral and rational inquiry is needed for a more structured explanation of this causation.  
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: With its critical moral reasoning, this paper extended the analytical and theoretical understanding of the Congolese armed conflict and offered practical implications for future analysis of African armed conflicts. By shedding light on the moral and rational features of the Congolese armed conflict, it advocates for a functional moral and rational inquiry framework to elucidate the functionality of relationships between moral and rational actions during the conflict and its development. The aim is to enhance the comprehension of the conflict and help define actionable tools for decision-makers during wars and peace processes in Africa, thereby making a tangible impact on the field.
Evaluation of Telemedicine Experience: Artificial Intelligence in Cancer Care
Authors: Kostin Andrey , Samsonov Yury
Published: June 2024

Background. To date, one of the key tasks of our time, which has yet to be solved, is to provide medical services remotely using constantly advancing information and communication technologies. It is medical sciences that urgently needs ICT tools for various scopes: providing medical care in remote regions, organizing continuous education of medical personnel, managing electronic patient records, implementing mobile diagnostic devices, and managing network of branches or medical facilities at the institutional level. Telemedicine is a necessity, especially for patients with comorbid chronic diseases like cancer.
Objective. To evaluate utilization of digital technologies at various stages of cancer care, through the example of artificial intelligence.
Materials and methods. A systematic literature review was conducted using PRISMA. The search was carried out in such databases as Elibrary, PubMed, MEDLINE, Google Scholar by keywords “Telemedicine in oncology”, “COVID-19 in oncology”, “Artificial Intelligence”, “Digital Technologies”, “Data Personalization”, and “Teleoncology”. Publications not primarily focused on evaluating telemedicine technologies in oncology were excluded from the review process.
Results. The literature review was conducted to consider the rapid integration of telemedicine since the pandemic, the risks associated with the widespread use of telemedicine in oncology, and the use of artificial intelligence in oncology, including the early detection and diagnosis of cancer. In conclusion, it is noted that the digitalization of healthcare radically changes the clinical workflow by expanding the possibilities for obtaining information from both medical staff and patients. Experience-based medicine is being replaced by an evidence-based, patient-centered approach. The rapidly developing artificial intelligence technologies will continue to have a great impact on the oncology in the near future. Both medical staff and scientific community must be prepared for the coming changes.
