197,220 | CLINICAL USE OF THE NEW BIOMARKER ST2 IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC HEART FAILURE OF ISCHEMIC GENESIS: AN EXERCISE TEST | Aim. To study the role of soluble stimulating growth factor expressed by gene 2 (sST2), at rest and after exercise at the end of six-minute walk distance (6MWD) in predicting the development of adverse cardiovascular events (CVA) in patients with coronary artery disease with chronic heart failure (CHF) for 12 months of prospective observation. Material and methods. We included 35 patients with CHF of ischemic genesis (32 men) with 44 left ventricular ejection fraction [35; 52]% (average age 62 [57; 67] years). The concentration of sST2 in serum was determined by enzyme immunoassay prior to and immediately after completion of 6MWD. Results. After 12 months of prospective observation, patients were divided into 2 groups depending on the CHF genesis. Group 1 (n=15) included patients with an unfavorable CHF course, group 2 (n=20) included patients without adverse CVA. In patients of group 1, the level of sST2 reached 39,68 [32,28; 52,32] ng/ml, which is 26,2% higher than (p=0,007) the similar parameter in patients of group 2 - 29,29 [26,34; 33,78] ng/ml. According to the ROC-analysis, the level of sST2 ≥33,14 ng/ml can be considered as a marker of the development of adverse CVA for 12 months of observations (sensitivity - 73,3%, specificity - 75,0%, area under the ROC curve - 0,77, p=0,002). After 6MWD patients with unfavorable CHF had a tendency (p=0,211) for an increase in sST2 level by 9,3% from 39,68 [32,28; 33,78] ng/ml to 43,75 [36,85; 54,80] ng/ml. In patients with a favorable course of CHF, the level of sST2 did not change, reaching 29,29 [26,34; 33,78] ng/ml and 29,43 [23,79; 34,79] ng/ml after 6MWD. According to the ROC-analysis, it was found that in patients with coronary artery disease and CHF, determining of sST2 concentration in the blood after 6MWD allowed to achieve higher levels of specificity and sensitivity of stratification risk method of adverse CVA - 86,7% and 85,0%, respectively (the area under the ROC curve is 0,86, p<0,0001). Conclusion. Thus, the level of sST2 can be considered as a noninvasive marker for predicting of unfavorable cardiovascular diseases in patients with CHF and intermediate/reduced left ventricular ejection fraction. Concentrations of sST2, determined after exercise, have a higher prognostic value for the stratification of the risk of an adverse course of CHF in this cohort of patients. |
197,221 | COMPLEX MINERAL MIXTURE BASED ON BELITE SLUDGE EFFECT ON THE FATTENING PIGS MEAT PRODUCTIVITY | The paper presents the results of studies on the effectiveness of feeding belite sludge and the created complex mineral mixture based on it in the feed of fattening pigs. A positive effect on the growth and safety of experimental animals, meat productivity, the quality of meat and lard has been established. The studies were carried out in the conditions of the economy of JSC "named after Chkalov" of the Ilanskiy District of the Krasnoyarsk Region and a zoological farm of the Institute of Applied Biotechnology and Veterinary Medicine of the Krasnoyarsk State Agrarian University on young pigs of a large white breed for two periods of fattening. To determine the effect of local mineral feeding on the meat qualities of fattening pigs, four groups of 10 heads each were formed, animals in the control group received 1% of the Borka mineral mixture to the basic diet (RR), the first experimental group - RR + 1 % of belite sludge , the second experimental group - OR + 1.5 % belite sludge, the third experimental group - OR + 1 % belite sludge in combination with iodine, manganese sulfate pentahydrate, copper sulfate pentahydrate, phosphoric fertilizing and zinc sulfate. At the end of the fattening period and the experiment, animals were slaughtered, 3 heads from each group, and the growth of muscle mass in the experimental groups was established when feeding various doses of belite sludge and a mineral mixture based on it. The inclusion of 1 % of a complex mineral mixture based on belite sludge in the diet of animals leads to an increase in the live weight of pigs by 5.85 %, the energy value of meat - 1.71 and, as a consequence, an increase in the profitability of production by 13.5 %. |

197,224 | Evaluation of the development unevenness of the Russian Federation regions by socio-economic resource components | In the state strategy of the economic security of the Russian Federation the increased differentiation of regions and municipalities on the level and pace of socio-economic develop-ment is indicated as the main challenges, as well as the insufficient funding of industrial production, a weak innovation activity, lagging behind in the development and implementation of new and emerging technologies, increasing differentiation of the population by the income level, lack of labour resources, reduced quality and accessibility of education, health care and, as a result, the decline in the quality of the human capital.The purpose of this paper is to develop a system of integral indicators of resource components of socio-economic potential of the regions of the Russian Federation based on a legitimate, credible and accessible statistical data for the evaluation of their development unevenness. Materials and methods. Resource potential of the region is being considered as a collection of six groups of socio-economic indicators: fixed funds, financial and investment resource, labour resource, science and innovation resources, information resource and social resource. Each group includes indicators that are directly related to the possibilities of production of goods and services. In accordance with the methodological approaches of the resource capabilities evaluation of the region on the basis of integral indicators the principles of completeness, adequacy, accessibility, universality and formalization of the indicators are used. Evaluation of a group of indicators and all indicators of groups as a whole is made according to the values of integral indicators of reduction or exaggeration in comparison with the reference values of the resource components. Various indicators in the group have a different level of im-pact on the gross regional product that is taken into account in assessing their weight indicators. Time series values of the resource components in each group correlate with the time series values of the gross regional product, the coefficients values of pair correlation are used to recalculate them into weighting coefficients. Formulas for evaluating the individual indicators in the group are developed, integral indicators of the group of resource components and integral indicators of the resource potential of the region as a whole.Results. Given the significant differentiation of regions of Russia according to various objective factors, it is considered appropriate to compare regions within Federal Districts. For the Central Federal District, the Moscow region is taken as the benchmark for comparison, and relative levels of reduction in the resource components of other regions are calculated relative to the level of indicators of its resource potential. Analysis of the data shows that the highest level of resource reduction components of the Ivanovo region is observed in the resource group of science and innovation - 77.1 %, resources of the fixed funds, financial-investment and labour resources are equal the value of this indicator - from 42.3% to 45.4 %. The integrated indicator of relative resource reduction components in the Ivanovo area totaled 41.9 %.Conclusion. Using statistical data for the Ivanovo and Yaroslavl regions as examples, calculations of integral indicators are carried out, which demonstrate the possibility of assessing the regional development unevenness by their resource component of socio-economic development. |

197,226 | In-hospital outcomes and complications of percutaneous coronary interventions in STEMI in different age groups | Aim. To evaluate in-hospital outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention for STEMI patients in different age groups. Materials and methods. 356 patients with STEMI who underwent PCI were enrolled in the study. According to the age, all patients were divided into 2 groups: "young" - at the age under 70 years; "non-young" - all patients at the age of 71 and over. In-hospital outcomes and clinical characteristics were analyzed. Results. In comparison with "young" group, patients over 71 years old demonstrate more high level of in-hospital mortality and hemorrhagic complications. "Non-young" patients present more severe condition, having myocardial and renal dysfunction, more likely to have recent hypertension and myocardial infarction. They are less likely to be tobacco smokers or have dyslipidemia. Conclusion. With increasing of age the patient’s condition in STEMI worsens: there is high level of in-hospital mortality. Despite of it, application of invasive reperfusion in STEMI shouldn’t be limited according to patient’s age. Primary PCI for them seems to be an effective and safe method of care in STEMI. The way to decrease the number of hemorragical complications in this group of patients requires next evaluation. |
197,227 | Analysis of international experience in institutional support of social tourism | Improving the organizational and institutional foundations of social tourism is one of the most important tasks of the socio-economic development of Russia, since, having a wide range of positive socio-economic consequences, social tourism affects a number of macroeconomic indicators, and also contributes to an increase in the level of social well-being of society. However, the formation of an effective organizational and economic mechanism for the support of social tourism services seems impossible without a deep study ofthe features ofthe institutional support of social tourism in a number offoreign countries, where the models of social tourism used for decades have already proven their effectiveness in solving socio-economic problems in market conditions at the national and transnational levels. Using a set oftheoretical and empirical research methods, the article classifies social tourism models that differ in funding sources, the mechanism ofinteraction between participants, and the degree of a financial burden on the state. The paper presents a comparative characteristic of these models with examples of their application in different countries. The analysis ofthe efficiency ofthe applied organizational and economic mechanisms for the support of social tourism services is carried out, their advantages and disadvantages are shown. Each of the models of social tourism is aimed at solving specific problems and is not universal, due to the uniqueness of management objects. |
197,229 | THE AGE DYNAMICS OF BIOCHEMICAL BLOOD INDICES IN BROILER CHICKEN (<i>Gallus gallus </i>L.) | Biochemical blood indices are important characteristics of physiological and health status of agricultural animals and poultry. In the past decades, the advanced measuring methodology and equipment including the development of automatic biochemical analyzers with standardized reagent kits have led to the significantly faster procedures and higher accuracy of analysis. The reference values of the biochemical indices determined by classic methods should therefore be redefined. In this study we report for the first time the revised reference values of biochemical blood indices including circulatory activity of blood digestive enzymes in growing broiler chicks ( Gallus gallus L.) during early ontogenesis (1 to 35 days of age). In the study, the hybrid chicks of an experimental broiler cross Smena 8 (line B59) were compared to their parental lines (Cornish line B5 and Plymouth Rock line B9) selected at the Smena Center for Genetic Selection (60 birds per genotype).The hybrids were fed ad libitum; parental lines were restricted in feed since day 15 of age. Mortality and live bodyweight were determined at 1, 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35 days of age. Two replicates of 10 birds per genotype were randomly taken for biochemical blood analyses. Blood was sampled from the jugular vein of decapitated chicks. Biochemical blood indices were measured by a flow semi-automatic biochemical analyzer Sinnowa BS3000P (Sinnowa Medical Science & Technology Co., Ltd., China) using reagent kits DIACON-VET (Russia). At 1 day of age in all studied genotypes concentrations of total protein, triglycerides, and calcium in blood serum were lower while concentrations of total phosphorus and total cholesterol were higher as compared to all subsequent ages. The most substantial increase in biochemical blood indices occurred during the first 7 days of age. This was due, among other factors, to the intensive growth of the body and the functional formation of the digestive system for this age period. The total protein concentration in blood serum increased with age in all genotypes because of proceeded body growth and the enhanced ability of protein synthesis. Concentration of total cholesterol tended to decrease with age, especially after 21 days of age. Concentration of triglycerides in serum increased to 14 days of age by 41.6-57.1 % as compared to the previous ages. There were no significant differences between the genotypes in total blood protein until 35 days of age. The hybrid chicks and their parental lines differed in the blood concentration of calcium, total phosphorus, and total cholesterol at 14 and 28 days of age, and triglycerides at 7 days of age. The blood digestive enzyme activities per live bodyweight decreased from day 1 to day 35 of age, most notably for trypsin (501-fold in hybrids, 453-fold in the Cornish line, and 442-fold in the Plymouth Rock line). Blood amylase activity decreased 100-, 52-, 50-fold, and lipase activity decreased 31-fold, 33-fold, and 35-fold, respectively. |

197,246 | VIBRATION MECHANISMS SELF-BALANCING | Mechanisms, working bodies of which perform linear oscillations with a frequency high for their mass, which leads to the development of significant non-productive mechanical reactive inertial power, are considered in the article. Neutralization of the inertial power leads to a significant increase in the energy efficiency of the mechanism. The aim of the work is to determine conditions for automatic balancing of mechanisms with a constant reduced moment of inertia with four and three working bodies. It is established that the minimum number of working bodies performing linear oscillations in a balanced mechanism with a constant reduced moment of inertia is three. |
197,247 | THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE "VIABILITY" CONCEPT IN RUSSIAN AND FOREIGN PSYCHOLOGICAL RESEARCh | The article focuses on the notion of viability and compares how the concept is defined in russian and foreign research sources. Russian academics tend to consider an “ability” as an individual feature, and do not rely on it when addressing the “viability” issue. Western psychology primarily focuses on an individual’s social activity. Therefore, russian psychological science defines “viability” primarily as a psychological resource of an individual. Foreign psychological research, on the contrary, considers “viability” to be, on the one hand, an individual’s ability to construct the model of one’s lifestyle in accordance with their knowledge, skills, and abilities, and on the other, to be one’s resources which an individual could use to fulfil this lifestyle concept. |
197,248 | THE ROLE OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT IN CRIME PREVENTION (BY THE EXAMPLE OF AUSTRALIA) | The article describes the international experience of local authorities in the procedure for the prevention and prevention of crimes.

197,250 | ALIEN MACROINVERATEBRATES AND FISH IN THE DNIEPER RIVER BASIN | The study results on spread, pathways, vectors and ecological impact of alien invertebrate species and fish in Dnieper River basin are presented. The relationship between invasive processes and basin hydrology is analyzed. It is shown that the main factor in spreading of alien species in the central part of basin was the construction of reservoirs. The main reasons to promote the spreading of alien species were “limnesation” of river and introduction of the Ponto-Caspian species into the reservoirs. The differences in pathways and vectors for upstream, middle and downstream parts of the river were established. In the reservoirs in the middle part of the river the main pathway was intentional introduction whereas that for the upstream were shipping and natural spread. The “black list” of invertebrates and fish is presented. |

197,254 | Higher Pedagogical Education and Commercialization of Scientific Knowledge: Problems and Contradictions | The purpose of this paper is to determine the place and role of higher teacher education, teacher of high school in the context of commercialization of knowledge and modern social and economic transformations that are currently changing the psychology of people, society, shifting the individual and collective consciousness and spiritual and moral values toward commercialization relations. Analyzing the work of many scientists, using an interdisciplinary approach, it was found that the influence of the liberal transformation in the educational sphere, in particular pedagogical universities in the scientific literature is not enough. As a result, studies have highlighted the problem of spiritual and moral plan, which cuts across all spheres of modern society; the role of the teacher of higher teaching school as a repeater of scientific knowledge, ideology and values in the context of the paradigm of the gift or giving gifts was revealed; defines the mission of pedagogical universities – the formation of teachers, responsible, systematic in their thinking and knowledge, not only in the certain knowledge, but also capable of conveying correctly and scientifically verified to those of the younger generation system of socio-economic changes that accompany the social environment, promote the scientific outlook with accentuation on the moral and spiritual intelligence, which in a certain way denies the commercialization and commodification of thought and values; a sociological survey of students was conducted with a goal to, firstly, understand their vision of value constructs the carriers of which must be high school teachers, and, secondly, their relation to the commercialization of higher education. The prospect of further research should be to find answers to fundamental economic questions – what to produce?, how to produce? for whom to produce?, e. i. determining precise contours of the financial presence of the state in the production and provision of educational services by pedagogical universities. |

197,259 | EFFECTS OF NITROGEN-FIXING AND PHOSPHATE-SOLUBILIZING MICROORGANISMS FROM THE FAR EAST AGRICULTURAL SOILS ON THE CEREAL SEED GERMINATION | Mineral fertilizers which can significantly increase crop productivity have an adverse effect on the soil and the environment as a whole when used for a long time. Microorganisms, as an alternative to mineral fertilizers, stimulate plant growth and development due to their ability to fix nitrogen, produce siderophores, phytohormones and enzymes, dissolve inaccessible elements of mineral nutrition, suppress plant pathogens, and increase consumption of water and nutrients. However, the effectiveness of such preparations highly depends on factors of a new environment. We believe that bacteria from soils that have long been exposed to various agricultural practices may be good plant stimulants. In the presented study, for the first time, we have isolated local active strains of nitrogen-fixing and phosphate-mobilizing bacteria from soils subjected to 74-year stationary intensive farming in the conditions of the Russian Far East and revealed isolates and their combinations which stimulate wheat and barley seed germination and seedling growth. The aim of the work was to study the plant-stimulating properties of nitrogen-fixing and phosphate-mobilizing bacteria from soils that have been actively exposed to mineral fertilizers for a long time. Bacteria were isolated from soils sampled in October 2015 (the experimental field 8, Federal Research Center for Agrobiotechnology FEB RAS, Ussuriysk, Primorsky Territory, Russia). The seeds of wheat Triticum aestivum L. cultivar Primorskaya 50, and barley Hordeum vurlage L. cultivar Tikhookeanskii (collection of the Federal Research Center for Agrobiotechnology FEB RAS) were treated. Of 68 bacterial isolates with different cultural and morphological properties, three isolates, the Acinetobacter spp. N1, Azotobacter spp. N2, and Clostridium spp. N3 were nitrogen fixers, and four isolates, the Serratia spp. P6, Bacillus spp. P7), Arthrobacter spp. P8, and Pantoea spp. P19 were phosphate-mobilizing bacteria. Tests with the monocultures of nitrogen-fixing and phosphate-mobilizing isolates and their different binary compositions showed a 13-51 % increase (p ≤ 0.05) in wheat seed germination energy and 15-54 % increase (p ≤ 0.05) in barley seed germination energy compared to the untreated control. Laboratory germination of wheat seeds increased by 2-32 %, barley seeds by 7-30 % compared to untreated control. The barley seedlings were 1.8 times longer, and the roots were 2.7 times longer. Th binary combination N2P19, P6P19, and P8P19 caused the highest height of seedlings (120-140 mm, p ≤ 0.05), and with P6P7, N2P19, and P6P19 the roots were the longest (120-130 mm, p ≤ 0.05). These results allow us to conclude that short-term soaking seeds in the suspensions of the tested nitrogen-fixing and phosphate-mobilizing isolates improves seed germination energy and laboratory germination, and increases shoot and root length. Binary bacterial compositions have a greater effect on seed germination than monocultures. The strains N1 ( Acinetobacter spp.), N2 ( Azotobacter spp.), and P19 ( Pantoea spp.) are the best stimulants. Species-specific differences in plant response to the treatment is probably due to lack of genetic, biochemical and physiological complementarities between specific plant species and the bacteria. |

197,261 | The Arrangement of the Images of Tomb Owners as Lector-Priests in Old Kingdom Tombs | The analysis of decorations of Old Kingdom private tombs demonstrates that the images of their owners depicted as lector-priests are arranged in the places related with passages. One can often see them on the jambs and thicknesses of the entrances to the tomb and to the chapel, as well as on the false doors and on the pillars. Pillars were apprehended by the Egyptians as separating space in the same measure as solid walls, which can be confirmed by the fact that the scenes characteristic of the walls with the entrance often appear by the pillars. This localisation of the figures of the lector priests can be explained by the particularities of rituals that took place in the chapel. The study of the iconography of the tomb owner as a lector-priest allows us to assert that Egyptian artists often tried to combine various iconographic types (each having its own attribute in one) figure. Thanks to that a single image could play several roles in the programme of the tomb decoration. |

197,264 | Perception and Representation of the Moscow Periphery: A Case Study of Yasenevo | The peripheral districts of Moscow are ambiguously perceived by residents in terms of communication with the city center. The residential identification of their district in the city as a center-peripheral system is distorted under the inftuence of the features of the local context. Using the example of Yasenevo district, this article answers the following questions: what are the differences between the representation of the district by its residents and the conditionally objective characteristics of its socio-economic situation? What are the possible reasons for these differences?The research paper provides a better understanding of a number of significant differences in the socio-economic characteristics of Yasenevo’s location on the edge of the city and their perception. Considerably the most significant reasons for these differences are the historical context of the area’s development and the existing subjective perceptions of residents about Yasenevo as a young and green district, which are only partially confirmed by statistics. Because of its location and partial isolation, the district is not perceived by residents as an urban periphery in the context of city-wide central-peripheral relations, but represents a similar system itself due to its unique planning structure. |
197,265 | The application of the LS-SVM method for the analysis of LIDAR and Motorcycle samples | In paper considers the application of the support vector machines with a quadratic loss function (LS-SVM) for solving practical problems. The analysis of known samples LIDAR and Motorcycle is considered. A brief description of the samples used, as well as the construction of LS-SVM normal, robust and sparse regression are given. For obtain a robust LS-SVM regression was used the methods pseudo-observation and weighing. For obtain a sparse LS-SVM regression, different sampling splitting approaches have been used. Such as: sample partitioning by D-optimal experiment planning and various sample partitioning algorithms based on criterion of model selection. The algorithms for the partitioning of the sample based on the criterion of model selection include algorithms: replacements, rejections, points inclusions, Add/Del, Del/Add, and virtual support vectors. Otherwise, these algorithms can be called the algorithm of additional optimization of the composition of points. To verify the efficiency of the algorithms the computational experiment was conducted. An improvement of the obtained results accuracy with LS-SVM method was achieved by selecting the scale of the Gaussian kernel function. The parameters of the kernel function was selected by the value of criteria for assessing model quality. A fixed value of 10 is used as a regularization parameter. The final solution accuracy was tested by the value of determination criteria. In the table form are shown the results of the determination criterion for each method of obtaining the regression model. The results of the LS-SVM regressions are shown graphical form. These results showed that the use of the LS-SVM method is quite acceptable for solving applied problems. |

197,276 | Gender peculiarities of primary schoolchildren's critical self-attitude determination | The article describes the investigation of critical self-attitude among primary schoolchildren and its determinants. Critical self-attitude is the attitude based on the divergence between the real self and the ideal self. This type of self-attitude is a new formation of primary school age. The data that we got showed that the development of critical self-attitude has a complex system of determination and is determined by the whole social development situation including school performance and the child's relations with the teacher, peers and parents. It was found that there are particular leading factors influencing the development of some self-attitude aspects. At the same time their influence is mediated by the other components of the social development situation. The investigation showed that gender differences of critical self-attitude determination can be found among primary school children. |
197,278 | Interlinguocultural Approach from the Position of Contact Variantology | Many scholars tend nowadays to agree with the statement that English language is diversified because of globalization and that it is represented by a number of varieties. In this connection, the problem of interactions between various languages and cultures is widely discussed today. This is reflected by the fact that there are a lot of newly introduced approaches in linguistics, for example, interlingaculturology and variantology. In order to compare these two approaches the author of this article tried to regard some of the processes that take place when these approaches are used and to give the explanation that is provided by these approaches to clarify the processes. Material for the research is majorly taken from the work by L.N. Tolstoy “War and Peace” in English translation. The result of the research showed that there is a contradiction between the two approaches. The author suggests a new communication model that allows to clearly see the point of contradiction. Moreover, there is a new understanding of what variety is presented in the article. Also, it is suggested by the author to look at the variantology approach from the position of synergetics, which is a rather unique twist is this discipline. |
197,279 | Principles of creating multimodal transportation and logistics centers | The work is devoted to the basics of the functioning of multimodal transport and logistics centers and the principles of creation. The goals of the establishment of the ITLC and their significance are given. The analysis of the basic types of MTLTs and the basic functions performed is performed. The need for construction and linkage to existing international transport corridors is justified. The increase of economic interests and their significance for the Central Asian republics and Kazakhstan is shown. The conducted researches show that the number of railway routes, oriented to the transit transport of Chinese goods, which do not represent significant competition and complement each other, is growing on the Eurasian continent. In addition, the tendency of the forecasted growth of the cargo flow is shown to 15-20% due to changing customer preferences from the sea route to the railway one. The main factor is the high speed of delivery - more than twice. Other reasons for this trend may be a technical process that increases the speed of communication and organizational and technical factors to increase competition through tariffs and fees, simplify customs procedures, etc. The most justifies the possibility of a significant increase in the role and economic opportunities of the ITLC in modern conditions. |

197,286 | An improved formula for the universal estimation of digraph exponents | An early formula by A. L. Dulmage and N. S. Mendelsohn (1964) for the universal estimation of n-vertex primitive digraph exponent is based on a system C = {C<sub>1</sub>,..., C<sub>m</sub>} of directed circuits in the graph with lengths l<sub>1</sub>,...,l<sub>m</sub> respectively such that gcd(/<sub>1</sub>,..., l<sub>m</sub>) = 1. A new formula is based on a similar circuit system C with gcd(l<sub>1</sub>,..., l<sub>m</sub>) = d ^ 1. Also, the new formula uses the values г^((7) that are the lengths of the shortest paths from a vertex i to a vertex j going through the circuit system C and having the length comparable to s modulo d, s E {0,...,d - 1}. It's shown, that expT ^ 1 + F(L(C')) + R(C) where F(L) = d · F(l<sub>1</sub>/d,...,l<sub>m</sub>/d) and F(a<sub>1</sub>,..., a<sub>m</sub>) is the Frobenius number, R((7) = max max{г^((7)}. For a class of 2k-vertex (i,j) <sup>s</sup> primitive digraphs, it is proved that the improved formula gives the value of estimation 2k, but the early formula gives the value of estimation 3k - 2. |

197,289 | DYNAMICS OF VIBRATION FEEDERS WITH A NONLINEAR ELASTIC CHARACTERISTIC | Purpose. Subject to the smooth and efficient operation of each production line, is the use of vehicles transporting high specification. It worked well in practice for transporting construction machines, which are used during the vibration. The use of vibration machines requires optimization of their operation modes. In the form of elastic link in them are increasingly using rubber-metallic elements, which are characterized by nonlinear damping properties. So it is necessary to search for new, more modern, methods of calculation of dynamic characteristics of the vibration machines on the properties of rubber as a cushioning material. Methodology. The dynamics of vibration machine that is as elastic rubber block units and buffer shock absorbers limiting the amplitude of the vibrations of the working body. The method of determining amplitude-frequency characteristics of the vibrating feeder is based on the principle of Voltaire, who in the calculations of the damping properties of the dampers will allow for elastichereditary properties of rubber. When adjusting the basic dynamic stiffness of the elastic ties and vibratory buffers, using the principle of heredity rubber properties, determine the dependence of the amplitude of the working body of the machine vibrations. This method is called integro-operator using the fractional-exponential kernels of relaxation. Findings. Using the derived formula for determining the amplitude of the resonance curve is constructed one-mass nonlinear system. It is established that the use of the proposed method of calculation will provide a sufficiently complete description of the damping parameters of rubber-metallic elements and at the same time be an effective means of calculating the amplitude-frequency characteristics of nonlinear vibration systems. Originality. The authors improved method of determining damping characteristics of rubber-metallic elements and the amplitudefrequency characteristics of nonlinear oscillatory systems by introducing the calculation algorithm of dependency, taking account of elastic-hereditary properties of rubber. Practical value. The use of integro-operator method with the use of fractional-exponential kernels of relaxation, thereby increasing the accuracy of the calculations of the damping parameters of rubber goods and the amplitude-frequency characteristics of nonlinear oscillatory systems and provide an opportunity to further optimize operation modes of vibratory equipment. Made with regard to the principle of heredity properties of rubber, rubber-elastic suspension units for vibratory feeder exclude the probability limit line speed in the low durability of suspension parts feeder. |

197,298 | The Physical and Technological Problems of Controlled Thermonuclear Fusion | The lines of scientific activity and the results of investigations carried out at the MPEI Department of General Physics and Nuclear Fusion are briefly reviewed. The conducted activities are mainly focused on the problems of controlled thermonuclear fusion and plasma technologies. Efforts are taken to study heat transfer and hydrodynamics in the plasma-facing structural components of thermonuclear reactors, one-sided heating of which results in essentially nonuniform distributions of heat flux density and wall temperature over the pipe inner perimeter. Another line of research activities is concerned with experimental investigations of nucleate boiling and heat transfer in essentially subcooled flow, of enhanced heat transfer in annular channels and models of pebble fuel element beds, and of heat transfer enhancement as applied to the problems concerned with cooling the International thermonuclear experimental reactor (ITER). A large-scale test bench for studying thermal-hydraulic processes in the models of advanced nuclear fuel assemblies operating with the parameters of a VVER-type reactor has been constructed. Activities are underway on studying the resistance of refractory metals to the effect of powerful plasma and heat fluxes expected to take place in a tokamak-type thermonuclear reactor. A plasma installation equipped with a linear multicusp magnetic system featuring uniquely high parameters has been constructed, which is used to perform tests of materials exposed to megawatt-scale hot plasma. The unique plasma installation has been constructed for studying plasma-to-surface interaction and high-temperature plasma testing of refractory materials like tungsten, molybdenum, steel, etc. The experiments to be performed on the installation are aimed at developing a new technology for producing a highly porous surface nanostructure of refractory metal, including tungsten “fuzz”. Such investigations are topical for inventing new materials that are of considerable interest for nuclear, chemical, power, and biomedical technologies. The main lines of activities on nanotechnologies include obtaining, studying and using carbon nanostructures such as fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and their derivatives. Within the framework of studying the strengthening phenomenon, the extent of steel surface strengthening as a function of the type and intensity of incident radiation, and the type of nanocarbon material is considered. The interaction of charged particles and radiation with structural materials is investigated. Experimental and theoretical investigations of the interaction of electrons and light ions with inhomogeneous solid bodies are continued to solve the problems concerned with scattering ion beams in inhomogeneous media. Innovative methods for destructive and non-destructive analysis of thin films are developed, including layer-wise analysis techniques. Unique plasma installations have been constructed at the department, such as a high-frequency induction plasmatron for carrying out chemical spectral analysis, an arc plasmatron for studying the free plasma burning processes, a high-voltage installation for studying streamer and arc discharges with electrolysis, and a cold plasma installation for studying the effect of discharge on biological tissues. All these installations are successfully used for carrying out both research activities and student training laboratory works. |

197,302 | Prevention of infectious and inflammatory complications after percutaneous nephrolithotripsy using the drug pyobacteriophage | Data on antimicrobial prophylaxis of infectious complications after percutaneous nephrolithotomy is presented in this article. The study was conducted among 60 patients with staghorn and multiple kidney stones who underwent percutaneous nephrolithotripsy (PCNL). For prevention of infectious complications of PCNL pyobacteriophage preparation or antibiotic drug were used. Nephrostomic tubes and urethral catheters were treated with pyobacteriophage preparation for 30 minutes to hinder the formation of bacterial biofilms. The study has shown that pyobacteriophage may be used for prevention and treatment of infectious complications of PCNL as an alternative to antibiotic prophylaxis, which is of great importance considering a rising prevalence of antibiotic-resistant strains. There was no difference in body temperature at 1, 3 and 7 days after the surgery, as well as in incidence of systemic inflammatory response between two groups. Moreover, 7 days after the surgery blood count parameters (white blood cells and banded neutrophils) were back to normal in all 4 groups, which leads to an assumption that antibiotics and bacteriophage preparations have equal efficacy.

197,305 | Accumulation of <sup>137</sup>Cs in spring wheat grain at different levels of nitrogen and potassium nutrition in anthropogenic-transformed peat soil | Anthropogenic-transformed peat soils occupy significant areas in the territory of the Republic of Belarus in composition of agricultural land contaminated with radionuclides. A number of studies have been carried out in recent years where diagnostic features, properties and fertility, regimes of mineral nutrition of plants on these soils have been studied. However, studies on radionuclides migration, impact of various agricultural practices on penetration into agricultural crops have not been carried out. The article dwells on study of <sup>137</sup>Cs penetration into spring wheat grain depending on the levels of nitrogen and potassium nutrition of plants when various rates of nitrogen and potassium fertilizers were applied on anthropogenic-transformed peat soil. It has been determined that N<sub>120</sub>P<sub>60</sub>K<sub>120</sub> application reduces <sup>137</sup>Cs level in grain by 15-22 % compared to the control, and when combined with mineral fertilizers, copper-containing fertilizer and plant growth regulator - by 34 %. The minimum accumulation of <sup>137</sup>Cs in spring wheat is determined at nitrogen-potassium ratio of 1 :(1.0-1.2). At the ratio of 1: (0.2-0.6) nitrogen deficiency and increase in radionuclide concentration in grain are observed due to yield decrease. Increase in accumulation of radionuclide in grain is observed at the ratio above 1:1.5. The results of researches make it possible to determine the allowable contamination density values of the anthropogenic-transformed peat soil with <sup>137</sup>Cs and optimal doses of mineral fertilizers for cultivation of food and forage purpose spring wheat. |

197,308 | On Poly-Functionality of Landscape in some A.P. Chekhov''s Short Stories | The article dwells on the study related to landscape function in A.P. Chekhov's short stories including: «Strange Wol», «The Boy Named Vanka», «Fastidious Escapades», «Enemies», «The Fidgety Woman», «Chamber #6», «Ariadna» and etc. Proceeding from the analysis of the text of the abovestated literary productions the author comes to the conclusion that they are distinguished with polyfunctionality. Drawings of nature are now as a background, now as a description action place; they may be correlated with the protagonist 's mood, bringing to light his/her psychological state; being the subject the hero admires, the good the latter into all sorts of contemplations. Hereby, determining the plot-compositional landscape function the researcher proves that nature can be in harmony with the character 's mood, either in the state of accompaniment or contrast. It should be noted that comparing landscape sketches in various short stories belonging to Chekhov with the literary productions of other authors the researcher pays particular attention both to similarity and distinction aimed at nature 's depiction. Thus, in her article the author discloses plentiful functions of landscape in the abovementioned short stories. The linguistic means aimed at the depiction of landscape sketches and their lexical expressions are thoroughly researched by the author For a confirmation of her thesis the author speaks about certain theoretical provisions, at the same time the examples adduced illustrate it. |
197,309 | Control of Secondary Cooling in Dynamic Casting Modes | The aim of this paper is to study the influence of the secondary cooling control method on the temperature field of a continuous ingot under dynamic casting conditions. The main tasks were the development and implementation of a mathematical model of ingot cooling, as well as the identification of a control method that is used in a real industrial plant. As a research hypothesis, this paper considers the change in the surface temperature of a continuous ingot during the transition process. Significant temperature fluctuations negatively affect the condition of the metal, increasing its tendency to defects. Methods for evaluating methods for controlling secondary cooling are based on the results of mathematical modeling. The novelty of the research lies in the application of a new approach to mathematical modeling of changes in the thermal state of the metal under dynamic casting conditions, as well as a method for evaluating control methods based on temperature fluctuations along the entire length of the ingot during the transition process. |

197,316 | Reconstruction of the Neoproterozoic–Cambrian Orogenesisin Princess Elisabeth Land (East Antarctica) from a Study of Granitic Rocks | Abundant Cambrian granitic rocks in Princess Elizabeth Land and adjacent regions of Antarctica occupy various positions (from syn- to postkinematic) in the structure of the crust. Their mineral and isotopic composition reflects both the character and age of the parental substrate and geodynamic formation conditions of the region. The study of Cambrian processes is important for this region, because almost all known models of the formation of the Gondwana supercontinent suggest the Neoproterozoic–Cambrian amalgamation of two or three continental blocks, parts of which can be distinguished in this sector. The paper presents geological data on granitic rocks, as well as their mineral and Nd isotopic composition. Field observations and analytical data indicate a different structure and petrographic composition of Cambrian granitic rocks in Princess Elizabeth Land, which are related to their different formation conditions. Synkinematic biotite or garnet–biotite peraluminous S-type granites mostly occur in the eastern Princess Elizabeth Land. Mostly late and postkinematic biotite and amphibole–biotite (±orthopyroxene) granites or granodiorites are typical of its western part. Their compositions are similar to that of A-type granites. In comparison with coeval granites in adjacent areas, the character of Cambrian granites in Princess Elizabeth Land substantiates the presence of structural zones identified from geological data and indicates the presence of a Cambrian orogen probably with a collisional nature, as well as the location of its hinterland in intracontinental Antarctica. |
197,317 | Tree injections - demand and supply | The paper reviews current market of injection treatment application services to protect trees against pests and diseases (in Russia). The companies that offer injections are analyzed according to their activities, specialization level, applied procedures and preparations. The state of the market oftree injection services in Russia clearly demonstrates that such services are in great demand. At the same time, this market is almost completely illegal, as currently there are no preparations allowed for injection. Such an abnormal situation cannot be maintained, since such a situation is capable, on the one hand, of significantly discrediting the very idea of tree injection. Tree injection can become an important part in the system of effective protection of plantprotection. Hence, favorable opportunities should be created for the registration of new modern preparations for the performance of such works. Lack of allowed preparations for application under the specified procedure in Russia, inconsistency of legal and regulatory background for injection applications to protect tree plants is stressed. A conclusion on need of operations to improve available situation and development of injection application conditions as an environmental procedure for preventive and control treatments of trees in forest areas, gardens and parks. |

197,326 | IMPACT ASSESSMENT OF CELL CARDIOMYOPLASTY BY MESENCHYMAL SREM CELLS (MSCS) ON INDICES OF CARDIOMYOCYTES METABOLIC ACTIVITY IN EXPERIMENTAL MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION | The article is devoted to the solving of an actual scientific problem which is the justification of the effectiveness of isogenic cell cardiomyoplasty in myocardial infarction during the experiment. Experimental research was carried out on animals of Wistar-Kayota inbred. The total study included 42 animals (14 rats each, respectively), which formed 3 equal in the number of animals groups. In our studies, we have demonstrated the basic pathophysiological mechanisms of myocardial infarction in rats, such changes as decreasing of lactate dehydrogenase, erythrocyte adenosine desaminase and Creatine kinase-MB after using of common MSC’s. The myocardial infarction was caused by coronary artery ligation with subsequent application of various kinds of cardiomyoplasty. Further on, according to biochemical research, we studied the dynamics of markers of myocardial damage, lactate metabolism, lipid peroxidation. The common MSC’s proved effective in our experiment. Our data are consistent with the world literature that can be recommended to refrain the use of this type of cellular cardiomyoplasty in the future clinic research. |
