The correct choice of elements of the elevator lifting mechanism and their parameters ensures its reliability, durability, energy and economic efficiency. The paper contains recommendations for the selection of the traction elements of the elevator lifting mechanism and the sequence of determining their parameters based on a multivariate calculation. The purpose of the proposed sequence is to obtain the most rational parameters of the traction elements of the elevator lifting mechanism. The initial data for the calculation are the lifting capacity of the elevator, the nominal speed of movement, the height of the lift of the car. It is also necessary to consider the purpose of the elevator. At the first stage of the calculation, the masses of the cab and the counterweight are determined. In this case, the existing data on analogue lifts should be used. In the absence of such data, the approximate dependences proposed by the authors of the article can be used. At the second stage, the kinematic scheme of the elevator is selected. At the third stage, the type of traction element is selected. On the basis of domestic and foreign experience in elevator engineering and well-known literature, recommendations are formulated for choosing the type of traction element. The final stage is a multivariate calculation of traction elements. It is proposed to evaluate the calculation results taking into account the minimum value of the safety factor in accordance with the EN 81-1: 1998 standard. The calculation of the traction elements considered in the work is only a small part of the process of determining the optimal parameters of the elements of the elevator lifting mechanism. At the same time, already at this stage, variability is introduced, which makes the calculation quite laborious to perform it manually. Obviously, a multivariate calculation method that allows you to analyze many different combinations of parameters of the elements of the elevator lifting mechanism and choose the optimal ones is impossible without the use of a computer.

The most numerous category of finds among the funeral utensils in the Late Sarmatian female burials are the beads. Despite the mass and standardization, their potential as the dependable markers of date and location is still not developed completely. So one of the promising directions is to identify the zones of geographical distribution of the types of beads, that is, the selection of local and interregional types. The data base of the study consisted of 38 Late Sarmatian burials containing more than 7050 beads. At the first stage, a series of types of beads were classified according to the informative degree. Thus 39 types (found only in one buried) were considered poor informative. Other 56 types are considered well informative, because they were found in two or more burials. In the second stage, among 56 informative types,17 local markers (those found in two or more graves from one geographic region) were identified. All assemblages were dated according the dates of burials where they have been discovered. In the third stage, the remaining 39 informative types have been identified as interregional (those found in two or more graves from the territories of two or more regions of the studied range of distribution of the Late Sarmatian culture). They were also dated according the dates of burials. Thus, the result of the study is the selection of local and interregional markers of Late Sarmatian female burials from the territory of the steppe of Eastern Europe.

Machine parts operating under contact cyclic loads are subject to a destruction risk in the event of their working surface pitting (destruction). To increase the service life of such parts, various finishing and hardening technologies are used. In the absence of standard methods used to assess the durability of parts operating under contact endurance conditions, they have should be developed in relation to a specific case. The fractal geometry methods' usage in analyzing the surface layer state of parts operating under contact endurance conditions is complicated due to high equipment cost and fine and coarse noise high risk, which negatively affects the quality of generated images. The aim of the work is to develop a simple and accessible method for evaluating the results of contact endurance tests, based on the analysis of the investigated surface images. The developed patented technique consists of several stages. At the first stage, high-resolution photographing of the surface under investigation is performed using a microscope, providing magnification of no more than 1 ? 50. At the second stage, the obtained image is analyzed in the cad editor, where the number and area of the investigated defects are determined. At the third stage, wear result numerical assessment is carried out according to the proposed algorithm.

Abstract Background There are a growing number of studies using mediation analysis to understand the mechanisms of health interventions and exposures. Recent work has shown that the reporting of these studies is heterogenous and incomplete. This problem stifles clinical application, reproducibility, and evidence synthesis. This paper describes the processes and methods that will be used to develop a guideline for reporting studies of mediation analyses (AGReMA). Methods/Design AGReMA will be developed over five overlapping stages. Stage one will comprise a systematic review to examine relevant evidence on the quality of reporting in published studies that use mediation analysis. In the second stage we will consult a group of methodologists and applied researchers by using a Delphi process to identify items that should be considered for inclusion in AGReMA. The third stage will involve a consensus meeting to consolidate and prioritise key items to be included in AGReMA. The fourth stage will involve production of AGReMA and an accompanying explanation and elaboration document. In the final stage we will disseminate the AGReMA statement via journals, conferences, and professional meetings across multiple disciplines. Discussion The development and implementation of AGReMA will improve the standardization, transparency, and completeness in the reporting of studies that use mediation analysis to understand the mechanisms of health interventions and exposures.

To remove casting porosity and obtain smaller crystal grains, many large forgings need ingots to be upset axially with large ratio of height to diameter (H/D) greater than 3. But the ingots with large H/D are prone to buckling during upsetting process, and have non-uniform internal stress and strain distribution, cracks at barreling and other defects. A new axial upsetting process was proposed to handle these problems. Firstly, the research described deformation inhomogeneity and cracking tendency, and analyzed the causes of defects in the flat anvil upsetting process. Secondly, three two-stage upsetting processes were tried to improve the uneven deformation in the flat anvil upsetting, which applied symmetrical spherical convex die, conical convex die and multi-line sweeping concave die respectively in the first stage, and used flat anvils in the second stage. The effect of the die surfaces on constraining those defects was analyzed. Finally, three three-stage upsetting processes were suggested to take advantages of different die surfaces to stabilize the process. It was observed that the upsetting had better result from using conical convex die and multi-line sweeping concave die in the first stage, conical convex die and flat anvil in the second stage, two flat anvils in the third stage. The new axial upsetting process could improve the quality of the large forgings with more uniform deformation and less barreling.

This study discusses Padepokan Giri Harja in wayang golek in West Java. The selection of Padepokan to be studied is very important because it has influence and role in the preservation of puppet shows in Jelekong village, West Java. The purpose of this study is the first to: find out the history and development of Padepokan Giri Harja, know Gait Asep Sunadar Sunarya in the development of Padepokan Giri Harja, and know Padepokan Giri Harja in preserving Wayang Golek The method used in this study is the historical method, which is a method that reconstructs history by studying events in the past. There are four stages in this method, the first stage of Heuristics is the search for sources, the second stage of criticism namely internal criticism and external criticism, the third stage of interpretation, i and the fourth stage of historiography. The results of this study indicate that the founder of Padepokan Pusaka Giri Harja was Abah Sunarya. This Padepokan is a place for puppet puppet puppetry course. This Padepokan is located in Jelekong village, Ciparay Subdistrict, Bandung Regency, West Java. Many of his students later became successful puppeteers, including his own children. Abeng Sunarya was once a member of the management of the Bandung Regency Pedalangan and Pepadi Foundation. After Abah Sunarya died, the heritage of Giri Harja was continued by her son, Asep Sunandar Sunarya, better known as Giri Harja 3 or Abah Asep. Abah Asep developed this Heritage of Giri Harja so well that he had the desire to build a hermitage to make it easier for people who wanted to practice puppet show. The presence of Padepokan Seni Padalangan Giri Harja is one of the icons of the art village. The permanent building with the shape of a typical gunungan roof of wayang golek stands majestically on Jalan Raya Laswi, across the Bandung-Majalaya region, West Java, which is equipped with a large parking lot. The famous puppeteer Asep Sunandar Sunarya (deceased) planned the building to become the Padepokan Seni Boarding School Padalangan that scored reliable puppeteers as well as a form of preservation and inheritance of puppet show art to the younger generation.
