The article presents the results of an empirical study of the intellectual and personal potential of employees of the FPS of Russia who are at the initial stage of official activity in an educational organization. The study involved 275 employees of 4 specializations ("Penitentiary psychology", "Logistics in the penitentiary system", "organization of the regime in the penitentiary system", "Operational search activity"). To assess the intellectual and personal potential of employees of the FPS of Russia, the following methods were used: "Career orientation questionnaire" by E. Shane in adaptation by V.A. Chiker, V.E. Vinokurova "career Anchors";" Personal profile " by G. Eysenck (Eysenck Personality Profiler) in the adaptation of K. Sugonyaev; test "word Exclusion"; subtest "Numerical series" of the intelligence structure test by R. Amthauer in the adaptation of K. Sugonyaev; "Advanced progressive matrices" by J. Raven. The structure of the intellectual and personal potential of employees of the FPS of Russia includes the following factors: verbal intelligence, nonverbal intelligence, high-speed intellectual, aggressiveness-impulsivity, sociability-anxiety, autonomy, service-motivational. Employees of the FPS of Russia who are at the initial stage of official activity can be classified into separate personality types that differ in intellectual and personal potential: constructive, mediocre and unbalanced. After analyzing the average intellectual-personal potential of each of the three personality types according to objective performance criteria implementation, service and educational and professional activities, revealed the most favorable service activities of the FPS of Russia personality type.

In the article, the authors presented the results of an empirical study of the intellectual and personal potential of employees of the Federal penitentiary service of Russia at the initial stage of official activity. The purpose of the study was to study the structural components of the intellectual and personal potential of employees of the Federal penitentiary service of Russia and its features depending on the chosen professional activity. The study involved 275 employees of the Federal penitentiary service of Russia of students in various directions (specialties) training during the initial training in a rural training center of the Academy of the Federal penitentiary service of Russia. To assess the intellectual and personal potential of employees of the Federal penitentiary service of Russia, the following methods were used: "Advanced progressive matrices" by J. Raven; test "word Exclusion"; subtest "Numerical series" of the intelligence structure test by R. Amthauer in the adaptation by K. Sugonyaev; "Personal profile" by G. Eysenck (Eysenck Personality Profiler) in the adaptation by K. Sugonyaev; "Questionnaire of career orientations" by E. Shane in the adaptation of V.A. Chiker, V.E. Vinokurova "career Anchors". With the help of correlation analysis it was found that at the initial stage of the service activities of the intellectual-personal potential of employees of the Federal penitentiary service of Russia varies depending on the direction (specialty) training specific backbone properties: "autonomy" and "motivational ripeness" (the specialization of Operatively-search activity); "extraversion" and "motivational ripeness" (the specialization of Organization of the regime in prisons); "motivation for service" and "management" (specialization in Penitentiary psychology); "challenge" and "extroversion " (specialization in Logistics in the UIS).

The problem of definition of propulsion loss related to ship steering is addressed. Performance criteria representative of propulsion losses due to steering over a range of operating conditions including operation in calm water and a seaway are considered. Criteria are derived from strict analytical considerations and from empirical assumptions based on experimentally derived hydrodynamic data. The applicability of these various criteria and the implications for both assessment of relative performance of existing ship autopilots and for the design of new steering controllers is discussed in relation to simulation results for a high-speed containership.

Purpose The rising proportion of internet users in Sub-Saharan Africa and the lack of analytical techniques, as decision support systems, in choosing among alternative internet service providers (ISPs) by consumers underpin this study. The purpose of this paper is to propose an approach for evaluating high-speed internet service offered by ISPs in a sub-Saharan African country. Design/methodology/approach Using a sample size of 150, pairwise comparisons of two ISPs along five criteria of cost, usability, support, reliability and speed were performed by ten person groups of university students working in various organizations in Ghana and undertaking an online Six Sigma Course. Geometric means were employed to aggregate the scores in 15 groups, and these scores were then normalized and used as input into an analytical hierarchy process grid. Findings The results show that consumers of internet services highly emphasize the cost attribute of internet provision in their decision making. On the other hand, it was realized that consumers least emphasize the support provided by ISPs in their decision making among alternative ISPs. Originality/value This study has sought to provide an analytical framework for assessing the quality of service provided by alternative ISPs in a developing economy’s context. The evaluating criteria in this framework also reveal the key consumer requirements in internet service provision in a developing economy’s environment. This, to a large extent, will inform the marketing strategies of existing ISPs in Ghana as well as prospective ones intending to enter the Ghanaian market. Besides, the National Communication Authority, a regulator of communication services provision in Ghana, will be informed about the performances of the ISPs along five performance criteria. This is expected to aid in their regulatory functions.

Problem and goal. The study is devoted to the understanding of the pedagogical community of the key category of the current regulatory legal acts in the field of education – “spiritual and moral education.” The implementation of one or another legally enshrined norm is carried out by specific subjects, who must first of all comprehend it, fill it with content and, as a result, implement it in their professional activities. In this regard, the search for an answer to the question “How is” spiritual and moral education “understood in modern scientific and pedagogical discourse?” was the purpose of this study. Research base and literature. The research was carried out on the basis of publications presented in the NEB eLIBRARY.RU. The article provides an overview of scientific works published in 2019 on the pedagogical category “spiritual and moral education”. The material for the review was publications posted on the portal in the free access, the authors of which share their experience or the experience of pedagogical collectives in the implementation of spiritual and moral education. Research results. In the presented review, attention is focused on publications of a practical nature, which accounted for ⅔ of all the works under consideration. The review of publications devoted to the experience of implementing spiritual and moral education is based on the technology of education proposed by N.E. Shchurkova. All publications are conditionally divided into those where the technology of spiritual and moral education is presented in a holistic manner, and those where its separate component is revealed; on publications devoted to spiritual and moral education in lesson activities and in extracurricular activities. Conclusion. The overwhelming number of publications is devoted to the organization of the external “moral” side of spiritual and moral education, while the spiritual component of the category under consideration is rarely in demand by modern authors. The description of the experience of the authors of the publications under consideration contains mainly a list of activities, while the description of the experience in organizing the semantic search activity of students in works is rare.

A superhydrophilic aluminum surface with fast water evaporation based on nanostructured aluminum oxide was fabricated via anodizing in pyrophosphoric acid. Anodizing aluminum in pyrophosphoric acid caused the successive formation of a barrier oxide film, a porous oxide film, pyramidal bundle structures with alumina nanofibers, and completely bent nanofibers. During the water contact angle measurements at 1 s after the water droplet was placed on the anodized surface, the contact angle rapidly decreased to less than 10°, and superhydrophilic behavior with the lowest contact angle measuring 2.0° was exhibited on the surface covered with the pyramidal bundle structures. As the measurement time of the contact angle decreased to 200–33 ms after the water placement, although the contact angle slightly increased in the initial stage due to the formation of porous alumina, at 33 ms after the water placement, the contact angle was 9.8°, indicating that superhydrophilicity with fast water evaporation was successfully obtained on the surface covered with the pyramidal bundle structures. We found that the shape of the pyramidal bundle structures was maintained in water without separation by in situ high-speed atomic force microscopy measurements.

This article describes experimental and theoretical studies on the cavitation phenomena in the grease lubrication film under pure sliding elastohydrodynamic contact. In situ observation tests using the optical interferometry technique were conducted, and the growth of cavitation was captured using a high-speed camera. The results showed that the cavity grew in two stages, which was similar to the behavior in the base oil, and that the cavity growth rate in the initial stage was higher than that in the second stage. In the initial stage, the cavity growth time in the grease was longer than that in the base oil, and the cavity length after the growth depended on the base oil viscosity. It was also found in the test using diurea grease that small cavities were formed by the lumps of thickener. The cavity growth in the initial stage was discussed by numerical simulation of pressure distribution based on a simple rheological model.

We propose a semi-automatic HW/SW codesign flow for low-power and low-cost Neuro-Fuzzy embedded systems. Applications range from fast prototyping of embedded systems to high-speed simulation of Simulink models and rapid design of Neuro-Fuzzy devices. The proposed codesign flow works with different technologies and architectures (namely, software, digital and analog). We have used The Mathworks' Simulink© environment for functional specification and for analysis of performance criteria such as timing (latency and throughput), power dissipation, size and cost. The proposed flow can exploit trade-offs between SW and HW as well as between digital and analog implementations, and it can generate, respectively, the C, VHDL and SKILL codes of the selected architectures.

The present work proposes a new algorithm for the optimization of cutting parameters in the high speed drilling of woven composites. The cutting parameters under consideration are the feed rate and the spindle speed. Three performance parameters are to be minimized. These are the exit delamination, the surface roughness and the thrust force. These performance parameters are observed experimentally. One of the challenges that face the experimental testing of these parameters is the high cost of the drilling tools and specimen materials. Therefore, the minimization of the number of experimental tests is a necessary requirement. The algorithm presented hybridizes Kriging as a meta-modeling technique with evolutionary multi-objective optimization to optimize the cutting parameters while intelligently selecting the new set of cutting parameters in each iteration. After starting with a factorial design of the search space, and after testing the performance criteria at these points, the algorithm fits a multi-dimensional surface using Kriging. This step is followed by an evolutionary search on the fitted model. The search spreads a population of search points in the direction of better performance criteria as well as in the direction of un-sampled space. The previous two steps are conducted iteratively for a pre-defined number of iterations. In the final iteration, the population of search points is clustered to yield a small number of new points at which the new experiments will be conducted. The whole process is iterated until the maximum number of allowable experiments is achieved. The algorithm is tested using an existing set of previously published experimental data that are dense enough to predict the actual response surface of the performance criteria. Results showed that the algorithm smartly moved into the direction of higher performance criteria with a low number of experimental trials.

Several advantages of multihull, such as catamaran, have been extensively discussed in the previous research. Therefore, this research focuses on developing a catamaran hull form for the fish processing vessel hull. The initial stage is determining the principal dimension and exploring the configurations of catamaran hull forms. The existing high-speed craft catamarans have been adopted to determine the parent model main dimensions using a linear regression equation model. Otherwise, the catamarans single demi-hull geometry was developed by converting and modifying the parent model hull form with enlarging the hull displacement to achieve the deadweight capacity and service speed requirements. The demi-hull spacing configuration with s/L 0.17, s/L 0.20, s/L 0.30, and s/L 0.40 on the resistance characteristics, intact stability, and sea-keeping behaviour were also explored. Furthermore, the comparisons with the previously proposed monohull were presented. Regarding the hull resistance performance, the analysis indicated that the catamaran hull form had better total resistance characteristics than the monohull on the service speed over 23 knots. In the case of intact stability, the analysis results presented that the catamaran hull form has better intact stability characteristics than the monohull. The dynamic stability of the catamarans also gave better dynamic stability at the heeling angle below 41.57°. Otherwise, the catamarans with s/L 0.17 and s/L 0.20 have lower dynamic stability than the monohull at the heeling angle larger than 41.57° and 58.03°, respectively. In the sea-keeping performance, the catamaran hull has shown an excellent rolling motion required for the offshore environment loading/unloading process. The large demi hull spacing of the catamarans hull can reduce the effect of the wave creating load on the roll motion response at the Beam Sea.

The article contains an analysis of the initial stage of the heating process of high-temperature units. The heating modes used at the enterprises lead to various difficulties: a delay in the heating process or heating at a high speed at which mechanical stresses arise and exceed the permissible values. The proposed graphical dependencies for heating allow us to heat up at the highest possible speeds, taking into account the time spent on drying. In this case, the ultimate strength of refractory materials is not exceeded, which leads to a significant reduction in the time for the heating process.
