The article examines the state of production capacity of Russian industry. It is shown that in spite of certain positive shifts, the rate of technological modernization in recent years has been insufficient for marked progressive changes in the capacity structure and quality. In contrast to the industrial growth after the crisis of 1998 that took place in the presence of significant reserves of capacity, the current level of idle capacity is much lower. The lack of mass input of modern and high-tech industries objectively limits the possibilities of import substitution and economic growth.

ABSTRACT Slop tanks are the focal point of the Load-On-Top system used on crude oil tankers to prevent pollution of the sea. Design of these tanks and their operating procedures strongly affect the degree of oil-water separation achieved. This paper presents the results of an investigation undertaken to define designs and procedures for improving separation and minimizing oil discharge to sea. The program was funded in part by the U.S. Maritime Administration. Based on tanker experience and laboratory tests with tank models, guidelines on capacity, structure, inlets, outlets, system design, and wastewater handling, procedures were developed. The guidelines aim at assuring successful Load-On-Top operations by (1) providing tanker operational flexibility for handling oily water, (2) minimizing the degree of oil-water mixing, (3) avoiding re-dispersion of separated oil during feeding and discharging operations, and (4) eliminating the possibility of accidental oil contamination. This investigation provides a basis for future large-scale or shipboard studies to improve the performance of slop tanks on existing tankers as well as on future tankers.

Education assessment capacity is considered to be indispensable for teachers at all levels. However, there are currently many difficulties in assessing this capacity, especially for primary teachers when there is a change in assessing students. In this report, we would like to suggest a education capacity assessment structure for primary teachers and to demonstrate such structure through a survey of primary teachers' assessment capacity in Vietnam. Survey results show that the education assessment capacity structure consists of 6 component competencies which suitable for primary teachers in Vietnam. And, the report also points out that Vietnamese primary teachers' education assessment capacity in Vietnam is currently evaluated at a fairly good level.

The paper deals with the calculations of heat capacity of quasicrystalline decagonal Al69Co21Ni10 and icosahedral Al63Cu25Fe12 quasicrystalline phases of Al–Co–Ni and Al–Cu–Fe alloys, respectively. According to the Gruneisen law, heat capacity is an energy characteristic, which reflects the phases’ resistance to failure. For calculations of the heat capacity, structure of quasicrystalline phases is considered in the model representation of anisotropic crystals. As a result, it is found that the heat capacity of quasicrystalline phases at high temperatures is the excessive one, i.e. it exceeds the Dulong-Petit value. Therefore, quasicrystalline phases at high temperatures are more stable, than the crystalline phase. For the decagonal quasicrystalline phase, heat capacity is more than 3R in the temperature range of ~480–1500 К, and for the icosahedral quasicrystalline phase – in the temperature range of ~380–1120 К. It follows that decagonal phases remain stable at high temperatures at which the icosahedral phases are destroyed.

The purpose of the paper is to develop a methodology for multi-criteria selection of the capacity of a group of power plants included in the local power system which use local energy resources and renewable energy sources. To form alternative options for the structure of generating capacities, an approach is proposed. It suggests setting of a number of power levels of the base-load generating plant and power plants using renewable energy sources with subsequent determination of the capacity of the flexing generating plant to cover the remaining part of the load schedule. For multi - criteria comparison of the alternative options of the generating capacity structure, the TOPSIS method is used, which is modified to take into account the uncertainty of the decision-maker's preferences (the modification of the method consists in using fuzzy value functions at the stage of normalizing estimates by criteria). The application of this method is considered on the example of the Okhotsk district of the Khabarovsk territory. The estimated capacity of prospective consumers is 69 MW. Alternative options of the power generation structures include four types of power plants: local coal -fired thermal, solar, wind, and diesel. The multi-criteria comparison of generating capacity structure options is performed using the following criteria: normalized cost of electrical energy, estimation of environmental efficiency, and assessment of public opinion on the consequences of power plant construction. Some of the most promising options for the structure of generating capacities are presented, depending on the values of the weight coefficients of the criteria. If the criterion has the large weight reflecting economic efficiency, the structure with the predominance of thermal power plant energy generation is the best. If the criteria of environmental efficiency and public opinion feature large weight, the best structure is the one with significant generation from a renewable energy source (solar power plant). The coefficients of using the installed capacity of different types of power stations with different structures of generating capacities are determined. It is shown that the proposed methodology provides the obtaining of the options of the generating capacity structure that correspond to expressed preferences, taking into account the uncertainty of the initial information and development scenarios. Promising options for the structure of generating capacities are selected for more detailed further research.

<em>There are a lot of similarities and differences in The Dam Giong epics of Bahnar ethnic in Central Highlands-Vietnam and Reamkerepic (Cambodia), Ramakien epic (Thailand) and PhraLakPhra Lam epic (Laos). Although there are some similarities in content and themes, these epics differ in capacity, structure, character system and some other artistic elements. Reamker, Ramakien, PhraLakPhra Lam are short independent epics, deriving from Ramayana epic (Indian). Meanwhile, The Dam Giong epics, about a hero named Giong, have a large capacity of hundreds of epics. These epics derive from myths, legends and creeds of Bahnar ethnic in the Central Highlands-Vietnam, especially, they are “living” epics. Nowadays, the epics of Dam Giong are still being circulated and they are developing in the lives of Bahnar ethnic. Currently, in Central Highlands-Vietnam, the epics of Dam Giong are still composed and the number of these epics is constantly increasing.</em>

The paper dwells upon the problem of multi-criteria choice of ways to develop generating capacities to supply power to remote consumers. We herein propose a two-step multi-criteria analysis method: choosing promising power-generation technology first, and then specifying the generating-capacity structure. The paper describes the structure of the proposed multi-criteria methods: the interval TOPSIS method for Step 1; for Step 2, an upgraded analytic hierarchy process based on identifying the structure of the decision maker’s preferences. We demonstrate the use of this method with evidence from the Penzhinsky District, Kamchatka Krai. Thermal power plants, hydroelectric power plants, diesel power plants, as well as solar and wind power are analyzed as power sources. Step 1 includes: analyzing the potential power-supply loads in a specific area; formulating alternative power-generation technology; formulating goals and criteria; criterion-based evaluation of alternative options using objective and subjective models; multi-criteria evaluation of alternatives; analyzing the sensitivity of results and the selection of promising technology. Step 2 includes: formulating goals and criteria on the basis of the selected power-generation technologies; formulating the available alternatives; criterion-based evaluation of alternatives; multi-criteria evaluation and final decision-making.

ABSTRACT The physical characteristics of the soil are defined through the interaction between its properties, and they, in turn, can indicate its physical quality. The study area is located in the Centro Agropecuário Marengo (Marengo Agricultural Center), with an extension of 94.5 ha, subdivided into 17 plots. The objective of this research was to study characteristics such as water storage capacity, structure, consistency, and soil compaction in the two surface horizons (H1 and H2), in order to define management zones through the soil index. Properties such as soil penetration resistance were an indicator of soil degradation, with values higher than 2 MPa in 13 plots. The total porosity exhibited medium or low values in the H1 and H2 horizons, with a predominance of micropores, which means that the presence of water could be lower than 14%. Four management zones were identified for each horizon, where the first zone represents the area where the soil is capable of retaining between 17% and 21% of the available water, with a bulk density of around 1 g cm-3 and organic carbon content close to 6%. By contrast, the fourth zone represents the sites where the soils are the finest, with contents above 45% clay, available water less than 11%, and a mean compaction of 4.39 MPa.

Croatia possesses a comparative advantage based on its natural resources, ranking it high on the list of countries of nautical tourism. There is, however, an array of limiting factors that need to be eliminated if nautical tourism is to evolve on sound bases consistent with sustainable development. Future development cannot be based solely on Croatia's advantages reflected in its scenic spots, attractive landscapes and preserved environment. In 2005, new measures were introduced in nautical tourism to abolish black chartering; high standards of environmental protection of the Adriatic, implemented; and navigational safety, enhanced. Following these activities, the basic objective has become the need to define the strategic determinants for the future development of nautical tourism. Quantitative data point to a rapidly growing number of boaters, who expect to be received and accommodated in keeping with the trends on the service market of nautical tourism. Service quality in Croatian marinas is considerably below the quality levels of rival countries. Marinas in Croatia are in need of restructuring and repositioning, entailing continuous investment. Strategic thinking is needed in identifying the opportunities and lines of development of nautical tourism, in addressing the issue of the sustainable capacity, structure and distribution of berths along the Adriatic’s Croatian coastline as part of the strategic determination of Croatia’s tourism development, as well as in providing a comprehensive vision of current and future development.
