Synesthesia in Multimodal Perceptual Image as a Result of Conceptual Integration (descriptive register of the English literary text)
Authors: Kucher V. V. 
Published: September 2024

The article presents a study of perceptual multimodality which implies simultaneous perception by visual, auditory, olfactory, tactile, and other perceptual modalities. In the literary text perceptual multimodality is conveyed through the means of the descriptive register of speech, which is aimed at emphasizing the perceptual semantic component of the situation. Perceptual multimodality manifests itself in synesthetic metaphor. The article scrutinizes synesthetic metaphor as a means of perceptual multimodality from the standpoint of conceptual integration theory. The article aims at analyzing the process of synesthetic metaphor formation with the help of conceptual integration modeling. The aim of the study presupposes the following: firstly, to analyze linguistic means creating a multimodal perceptual image representing the visual, auditory, olfactory, and tactile semantic components of the situation of perception; secondly, to consider the register relation to an utterance when modeling the processes of mental space integration; thirdly, to describe the lingual means representing a multimodal perceptual image by means of cognitive-stylistic analysis, taking into account specific features of the descriptive register of speech. The analysis of the input spaces’ domains makes it possible to identify the conceptual features that serve as the basis for the metaphorization resulting in blended space: the domain of the input space SMELL expressed by the lexeme pollen integrates the semantic features of visual and olfactory perception within the Blooming flowers frame. The domain “pollen” endows the adjacent mental spaces SOUND, COLOR with the conceptual attribute “the ability (of three-dimensional physical objects) to float in the air”. The article presents the models of conceptual metaphors that reveal the way the conceptual characteristics are gradually borrowed into adjacent mental spaces and a blended space is formed. The conceptual features of the integrated mental space are as follows: color is a substance (and not an inherent feature), sound is a visible substance; color and sound float in the air in waves, mixing like homogeneous substances. The study results in a model of multicomponent integration of mental spaces, which is reflected in the text by the author’s synesthetic metaphor.
The Ideal of a Russian Ladylove in Oscar Wilde’s Play: some features of Vera Sabouroff’s image
Authors: Bobyleva T. V. 
Published: September 2024

Vera Sabouroff in Vera; or, the Nihilists by Oscar Wilde is stereotypically interpreted as a nihilist. The purpose of the article is to reveal some of Vera’s features as a (loving and loved) Russian woman. The article suggests that Oscar Wilde might have known the main meanings of the female name Vera (‘faith’, ‘trust’) in Russian and thus emphasized its connection with the verb trust. The following meanings of the name Vera are revealed in the play context: faith in God; faith in humanity, kindness, and justice; faith as trust in love (Vera’s trust saves Alexis’s life, etc.). The qualitative and quantitative analysis explores six features in Vera’s image. Three of them reflect her female nature (Devoted Woman, Snegurochka, Knight’s Lady) and the three others describe the romantic context of her life (Impossibility of Happiness for Woman, Chance of Happiness for Woman, True Love). The results show that Knight’s Lady and Devoted Woman are the predominant features of Vera’s nature, while True Love is the predominant feature of the romantic context of Vera’s life. The research results also reveal Vera Sabouroff’s resemblance to some portraits of the Russian woman from history and literature of the 19th century. Vera’s care for prisoners brings to mind the Decembrist’s wife (a symbol of Russian woman’s self-sacrifice). Vera’s distantness in love and contrastive semantics of snow / chill / water versus flame / light / heat / sun reveal her as an incarnation of Snegurochka (Snow Maiden). Vera’s figurative coldness and nearly physical resistance to love resemble Anna Odintsova in Fathers and Sons by Ivan S. Turgenev. The contrast of exterior coldness and a fiery heart in Vera’s image remind of Tatyana Larina in Eugene Onegin by Alexander S. Pushkin. Comparing the peasant girl Vera both to the sun and an empress echoes Nikolay A. Nekrasov’s lines praising the merits of Russian peasant women in The Red-Nosed Frost. Translations of these works appeared within two decades before Wilde’s play premiere (1883). Thus, Vera’s image might have been formed in Wilde’s mind gradually. Comparing Vera to the morning sun poetically completes her image as a woman whose warmth defeats her own former coldness and whose light dispels the fatal dark in the male character’s soul. The results of the research widen our understanding of the Russian culture influence on Oscar Wilde’s work.

В сейсмических исследованиях одними из наиболее значимых методов являются мониторинговые наблюдения за сейсмической активностью. При регистрации упругих колебаний на поверхности земли многими записывающими устройствами, передача этих данных в пункт обработки информации в реальном времени затруднительна в силу больших объемов цифровых данных. Задачу можно решить, включив в состав программного обеспечения микроконтроллерного регистрирующего прибора функцию вычисления энергии импульсов упругих колебаний с последующей записью на диск либо передачей в пункт обработки. Это значительно снизит плотность цифрового информационного потока. Потеря детальности при обработке сейсмических сигналов в этом случае компенсируется оперативностью оценки сейсмической активности изучаемых площадей земной поверхности.
Monitoring by seismic activity is very important method in seismic investigations. Seismic monitoring it is recording seismic information by lot of devices. This data is impossible transmit to the machining center in real-time, because of big volume digital data. To solve this problem we can if include to microcontroller instruction function calculation of elastic vibrations energy and recording it on the flash, or transmit it to machining center. This process reduce closeness by digital stream of seismic information. of course, we lose particular processing seismic signals, but this compensation responsiveness by estimation seismic activity on the day surface.

В статье раскрыты основные принципы построения интеллектуальных систем в авиационной промышленности. Разработана структурно-функциональная схема интеллектуальной системы для программно-аппаратной реализации конструктивных оперативно-советующих экспертных систем в самолетостроении, приведены логические зависимости, реализующие функции создания базы данных. Раскрыты принципы реализации векторов действий оператора по его вторичной модели на базе конструктивных переменных и признаков, корреляции признака с выполнением работы, пороги нарушенной работоспособности и выводы, относящиеся к признаку. Показано, что ядром любой интеллектуальной системы является база знаний, которая описывает определенную предметную область. Представление знаний в системах искусственного интеллекта — это не только фундаментальное понятие, но и решающий аспект их разработки. Модели представления знаний позволяют перевести пассивную информацию, хранящуюся в виде чертежей и документов, в активный информационный ресурс. Постулируется, что выбор правильной модели знания в экспертных системах в авиационной промышленности играет важное значение, и в большинстве случаев становится основой выбора подхода к решению той или иной задачи.

It is shown that the core of any intellectual system is a knowledge base that describes a specific subject area. Knowledge representation in artificial intelligence systems is not only a fundamental concept, but also a crucial aspect of their development. Model of knowledge representation allows to translate the passive information in the form of drawings and documents in the active information resource. It is postulated that the choice of the correct model of knowledge in expert systems in the aviation industry is important, and in most cases becomes the basis for choosing an approach to solving a problem.

Некоторые экологические проблемы могут быть решены с помощью липосом. Так, эффективность использования микроорганизмов для биологического разложения органических отходов и промышленных загрязнений зависит от их обеспечения веществами, необходимыми для их роста и размножения. В этом случае липосомы могут быть использованы для доставки клеткам недостающих питательных элементов, минеральных добавок и ростовых веществ. Кроме того, при нефтяных загрязнениях добавление липосом значительно облегчает удаление нефти с поверхности воды и из почвы, эффективно удаляет из жидких сред токсичных и радиоактивных металлов. Использование липосом в производстве красок и лакокрасочных материалов позволяет отказаться от применения экологически вредных органических растворителей. Рассказывается о том, что такое липосомы, какими свойствами они обладают и как их выбирают под те или иные нужды, какими они бывают и основные способы их получения в промышленности.
Some environmental problems can be solved with liposomes. Thus, the efficiency of using microorganisms for the biological decomposition of organic waste and industrial pollution depends on their provision with the substances necessary for their growth and reproduction. In this case, the liposomes can be used to deliver the missing nutrients, mineral supplements and growth substances to the cells. In addition, for oil pollution, the addition of liposomes greatly facilitates the removal of oil from the surface of the water and from the soil, and effectively removes toxic and radioactive metals from liquid media. The use of liposomes in the manufacture of paints and paintwork materials eliminates the use of environmentally harmful organic solvents. The presented article describes what liposomes are, what properties they possess and how they are chosen for particular needs, as they are, and the main ways of their production in industry.
"The silence before the storm" in tango by E. Schulhoff
Authors: Рыбалова М.М. 
Published: September 2024

Актуальность исследования и его научная новизна характеризуются тем, что в нем впервые проанализированы танго Э. Шульхофа с точки зрения трактовки жанра. Чешско-немецкий композитор Эрвин Шульхоф (1894–1942 гг.) вошел в историю как экстравагантный, эпатажный, не признающий никаких границ в искусстве представитель авангарда первой волны. Его всегда интересовала окружающая действительность, он никогда не стеснялся открыто выражать собственное мнение, в том числе и в области политики, за что был сослан в фашистский концлагерь во время Второй мировой войны. Ему были чужды напускная чопорность и мнимое благородство. Шульхоф – один из первых композиторов Европы, обратившихся к джазу и танго. Сдерживаемая роковая страсть, присущая жанру танго, воплотилась в произведениях композитора как выражение настроения «тишины перед бурей», о чём писал сам автор. Объектом исследования являются отдельные части циклических сочинений Э. Шульхофа, написанные в характере танго, предметом – особенности трактовки данного жанра. Цель статьи – определить семантику жанра танго в творчестве композитора. Гипотеза исследования: танго служит средством выражения настроения «тишины перед бурей».
The relevance of the study and its scientific novelty are characterized in that it first analyzed the tango by E. Schulhoff from the point of view of the genre interpretation. The Czech-German composer Erwin Schulhoff (1894–1942) went down in history as an extravagant, shocking, not recognizing any boundaries in the art of the avant-garde representative of the first wave. He was always interested in the reality, he never hesitated to express his opinion frankly, including in politics, for which he was exiled to a German concentration camp during the Second world war. Apparent stiffness and false dignity – it was not about him. Schulhoff is one of the first European composers who began to turn in his work to jazz and tango. The restrained fatal passion inherent in the genre of tango found its embodiment in the composer's work as an expression of the mood of "silence before the storm", as the author himself wrote. The object of research is the individual parts of cyclical compositions by E. Schulhoff written in the character of the tango, the subject is the peculiarities of interpretation of the genre. The purpose of the article is to determine the semantics of the tango genre in the composer’s work. The research hypothesis is the following: tango serves as a means of expressing the mood of "silence before the storm."
Darius Milhaud’s Octet: contrapuntal technique in polycomposition conditions
Authors: Жалнин В.В. 
Published: September 2024

Поликомпозиция в творчестве Д. Мийо стала проявлением его полиструктурных идей. Первые предпосылки к поликомпозиции можно обнаружить в Этюде для фортепиано с оркестром op. 63 № 3, представлявшем собой совместное звучание четырёх самостоятельных фуг. Впервые к поликомпозиции французский автор обратился в Струнном октете op. 291, который может исполняться и в качестве двух самостоятельных струнных квартетов. В статье рассматривается полифоническая техника каждого из квартетов и формирование на этой основе более сложного структурного принципа – поликомпозиции.
Polycomposition in the Darius Milhaud’s heritage became a manifestation of composer’s polystructural ideas. The first prerequisites for polycomposition can be found in Etude op.63№3 for piano and orchestra, which is a superimposition of four independent fugues. For the first time, a French composer turned to polycomposition in the Octet op.291, which can also be performed as two separate string quartets. The article deals with the polyphonic technique of each of the quartets and the formation on this basis of a more complex structural principle – polycomposition.
Fractal approach to Monte Carlo based numerical simulation of photon transport in biological tissues
Authors: Потлов А.Ю. 
Published: September 2024

В работе представлен вычислительно эффективный подход к математическому моделированию процесса миграции фотонов в биологических тканях. При этом ткани живых организмов описываются как сильно рассеивающие среды с явно выраженной анизотропией и относительным показателем преломления выше, чем у воздуха. Предложенный подход представляет собой модифицированную версию метода статистических испытаний Монте-Карло, в связи с чем вычисление длины свободного пробега фотона, вероятности акта поглощения или рассеяния, потери энергии при акте поглощения, нового направления движения в случае акта рассеяния и поведения фотона на границе моделируемого объекта или его отдельного относительно обособленного участка производятся по классическим формулам. Главной отличительной особенностью предложенного решения является описание пакета фотонов в виде древовидного фрактала. При этом опорная траектория просчитывается классическим образом, а остальные достраиваются по принципу самоподобия с поправкой на наличие или отсутствие областей резкой смены оптических свойств. Такой подход позволяет повысить производительность вычислений посредством снижения количества фотонов в пакете при пропорциональном увеличении количества рассматриваемых пакетов. Предложенное решение предназначено для использования при разработке новых и совершенствовании известных методов оптической томографии и эластографии.
The paper presents a computationally efficient approach to mathematical modeling of the photon migration process in biological tissues. In this case, the tissues of living organisms are described as strongly scattering media with pronounced anisotropy and a relative refractive index higher than that of air. The proposed approach is a modified version of the Monte Carlo statistical testing method, in connection with which the calculation of the photon mean free path, the probability of an absorption or scattering act, energy loss during an absorption act, a new direction of motion in the case of an act of scattering and the behavior of a photon at the boundary of the modeled object or its separate relatively isolated section are performed according to classical formulas. The main distinctive feature of the proposed solution is the description of a photon packet as a tree-like fractal. In this case, the reference trajectory is calculated in the classical way, and the rest are completed according to the principle of self-similarity, adjusted for the presence or absence of areas of abrupt change in optical properties. This approach allows increasing the computing performance by reducing the number of photons in a packet with a proportional increase in the number of packets under consideration. The proposed solution is intended for use in the development of new and improvement of known methods of optical tomography and elastography.

Background
Long-term effectiveness data on bivalent COVID-19 boosters are limited.

Aim
We evaluated the long-term protection of bivalent boosters against severe COVID-19 among ≥ 65-year-olds in Finland.

Methods
In this register-based cohort analysis, we compared the risk of three severe COVID-19 outcomes among ≥ 65-year-olds who received a bivalent booster (Original/Omicron BA.1 or Original/BA.4–5; exposed group) between 1/9/2022 and 31/8/2023 to those who did not (unexposed). We included individuals vaccinated with at least two monovalent COVID-19 vaccine doses before 1/9/2022 and ≥ 3 months ago. The analysis was divided into two periods: 1/9/2022–28/2/2023 (BA.5 and BQ.1.X predominating) and 1/3/2023–31/8/2023 (XBB predominating). The hazards for the outcomes between exposed and unexposed individuals were compared with Cox regression.

Results
We included 1,191,871 individuals. From 1/9/2022 to 28/2/2023, bivalent boosters were associated with a reduced risk of hospitalisation due to COVID-19 (hazard ratio (HR): 0.45; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.37–0.55), death due to COVID-19 (HR: 0.49; 95% CI: 0.38–0.62), and death in which COVID-19 was a contributing factor (HR: 0.40; 95% CI: 0.31–0.51) during 14–60 days since vaccination. From 1/3/2023 to 31/8/2023, bivalent boosters were associated with lower risks of all three severe COVID-19 outcomes during 61–120 days since a bivalent booster (e.g. HR: 0.53; 95% CI: 0.39–0.71 for hospitalisation due to COVID-19); thereafter no notable risk reduction was observed. No difference was found between Original/Omicron BA.1 and Original/BA.4–5 boosters.

Conclusion
Bivalent boosters initially reduced the risk of severe COVID-19 outcomes by ca 50% among ≥ 65-year-olds, but protection waned over time. These findings help guide vaccine development and vaccination programmes.
The Political Participation of Rural Women and its Societal Impact
Authors: Swechaa Siingh  
Published: September 2024

Women in rural areas are catalysts for the social, economic, & environmental change that is necessary for society's long-term viability. For rural communities to progress and women to feel empowered, it is essential that they actively participate in politics. The battle against marginalisation, trivialisation & oppression, as well as the socio-economic growth of rural women, depend on their political engagement and empowerment. Cultural norms, education, economic independence, & government policies are some of the aspects that have been studied as potential facilitators or deterrents to political activity among rural women. Additionally, it evaluates the broader social effects of their involvement, including advancements in gender equality, stronger government, and enhanced social welfare. In this research, we will represent that a positive association between women's labour force participation and GDP growth. A more diverse and inclusive district may see faster development and progress if more women are involved in the political process, have high-quality leadership roles, and have decision-making authority.
