The study considered the main approaches to the concept of diversification. It was determined that there are different types of diversification depending on the sources of its origin, but the main groups of classification are: functional (by processes), commercial and resource. In general, the economic system can have four typical situations when a process of diversification (specialization) occurs: 1) specialization is more profitable than the possible option of diversification; 2) specialization is the only possible way of further development and existence for this economic system in specific economic conditions; 3) diversification is more profitable than specialization; 4) diversification is the only possible way of further existence and development. Diversification is especially important in conditions of uncertainty in the development of the external environment. In such situations, diversification is the only way to avoid collapse and achieve sustainable development. The firm makes several bets in the hope that at least one of them will win. Offensive motives include aggressive growth policies; financial opportunities; overcoming the limits of growth; achieving synergistic effects. Here it is necessary to determine the presence of defense motives for the use of diversification: the distribution of business risk; reduction of cyclical instability; replacement of the declining activity. In accordance with the objectives of the study for the trucking company, it is possible to propose the use of such diversification strategies as industrial diversification, which is realized through changes in the production capacity of the trucking company; marketing diversification, which will promote the positioning of the relocation service in different market segments, and competitive diversification, which should be carried out using the methods of portfolio analysis of the company's positioning in the market.

Mutual fund managers do not have full freedom in choosing investment strategies - they are limited both by the laws and by investment declarations of the funds. Investment strategy cannot be fully changed even in financial crisis but it only can be corrected. This fact could not be characterized as a disadvantage because different types of funds are efficient in different time even during the same economic recession. Mutual fund manager should rationally invest funds of their clients: it is better to keep the maximum possible part of the portfolio in cash and instruments with fixed income on the declining market and it is better to keep shares on the rising market. However the choice of bonds also as the choice of shares should pay respect for the features of these instruments during unfavorable economic conditions. Russian mutual fund management differs from fund management in other countries as in stable economic situation so in the circumstances of financial crisis.

A recent trend in the field of membrane research is the incorporation of nanoparticles into polymeric membranes, which could produce synergistic effects when using different types of materials. This paper discusses the effect of the introduction of different nanometals such as silver, iron, silica, aluminum, titanium, zinc, and copper and their oxides on the permeability, selectivity, hydrophilicity, conductivity, mechanical strength, thermal stability, and antiviral and antibacterial properties of polymeric membranes. The effects of nanoparticle physicochemical properties, type, size, and concentration on a membrane’s intrinsic properties such as pore morphology, porosity, pore size, hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity, membrane surface charge, and roughness are discussed, and the performance of nanocomposite membranes in terms of flux permeation, contaminant rejection, and antifouling capability are reviewed. The wide range of nanocomposite membrane applications including desalination and removal of various contaminants in water-treatment processes are discussed.

We examine the effects of different types of executive incentives on technological innovation of declining firms and the moderating effects of the degree of decline and organisational slack on executive incentives and enterprise technological innovation. We also assess the synergetic effects of different types of executive incentives on technological innovation of declining enterprises. We find the following: first, executive compensation incentive, equity incentive and control incentives are beneficial to promote technological innovation in declining enterprises. Second, the degree of decline negatively moderates the relationship between equity incentive and technological innovation. Third, organisational slack positively moderates the relationship between equity incentive and technological innovation, as well as the relationship between control incentives and technological innovation, especially for severely declining enterprises. Fourth, there are synergistic effects between executive control incentive and compensation incentive, control incentives and equity incentive on technological innovation. The contributions are as follows: first, taking declining enterprises as sample, we suggest that to increase the role of compensation incentive and equity incentive in promoting technological innovation in declining enterprises, the control incentives should be strengthened. Second, organisational slack should be fully exploited for severely declining enterprises so that executives should have the motivation and conditions to carry out technological innovation and further help declining enterprises to turnaround successfully.

Abstract A method to predict the effects of rotor icing on the flight characteristics of a UH-60A helicopter is presented. By considering both natural ice shedding and different types of ice accretion due to local temperature variations on the blade surface, an improved rotor icing model was developed. Next, the effects of icing on rotor force, torque and flapping were incorporated in a nonlinear helicopter dynamic model. Based upon icing design envelopes in cumuliform clouds, trim and stability characteristics were studied. Further development of the helicopter state-space model allowed control and handling qualities characteristics to be investigated with variation of the three icing-related cloud variables (atmospheric temperature, liquid water content, and median volumetric diameter). Results indicated that this method of evaluating rotorcraft icing is both feasible and useful.

The article is devoted to topical issues of improving the methodology and organization of fixed assets accounting. Fixed assets play a huge role in the labor process, as they together form the production – technical base and determine the production capacity of the enterprise. Their condition directly affects the activities of the enterprise, namely its continuous operation. Over a long period of use, fixed assets enter the enterprise and are put into operation; wear out as a result of operation; are repaired, by means of which their physical qualities are restored; leave the enterprise due to obsolescence or inexpediency of further use. Fixed assets used in enterprises in modern economic conditions are one of the most important economic resources. Fixed assets, formed at the initial stage of the organization, require constant management. In the process of accounting at enterprises there are a number of problems of methodological and practical nature in the organization of accounting, valuation and depreciation of fixed assets. In the course of writing the article, the economic characteristics and concepts of fixed assets, theoretical aspects of fixed assets accounting, normative documents related to the researched problem were investigated. The analysis of fixed assets can be carried out in several areas, the development of which in the complex allows to assess the structure, dynamics and efficiency of fixed assets and long-term investments. Options for solving problems in accordance with modern economic conditions are revealed. The correct organization of accounting of fixed assets ensures the efficiency of their use, the timeliness of determining and reflecting transactions with changes that occur with them, the completeness of the reflection of these changes in value terms in accounting. Thus, the fixed asset accounting system needs to be improved. A comprehensive approach to the organization of fixed assets accounting is needed, which is able to provide the necessary conditions and opportunities for the use of valuable accounting information to make management decisions on the evaluation and effective use of fixed assets.
