The results of domestic and foreign experimental studies of masonry made of large-format ceramic hollow bricks and stones with voidness of up to 54% on the effect of static load during compression are analyzed. They confirmed the conclusions made by Russian scientists in the 1950s-1960s when developing the theory of stone masonry. Based on the analysis of the nature of deformation of the masonry of the large stone and the use of modern approaches to the assessment of the process of crack formation and failure of masonry the possibility of her plastic deformations is assessed. It is shown that the masonry of ceramic large-format stone refers to brittle materials. Based on the analysis of the test results, it is noted that according to the theory of plastic media, there is the simplest model of destruction of masonry during loading, in which plastic deformation can occur in the local zones of the element (crack zones). In this case, the bulk of the body (sample) is in an elastic state. The fallacy of the proposed approach to the estimation of the coefficient of plasticity of masonry, with due regard for the ratio of elastic and total deformations of masonry is noted. It is established that the proposals of individual authors to assess the plasticity of the wall masonry of ceramic brick and large-format ceramic stone with voidness of more than 40 % are incorrect and does not meet the work of the masonry of hollow material. On the basis of a large number of research works, it is concluded that the appearance and development of cracks and damage in the masonry is associated with the effects of its brittle destruction, and the masonry of large-format hollow stone refers to brittle materials.

ABSTRACT The tire model is essential for accurate and efficient vehicle dynamic simulation. In this article, an in-plane flexible ring tire model is proposed, in which the tire is composed of a rigid rim, a number of discretized lumped mass belt points, and numerous massless tread blocks attached on the belt. One set of tire model parameters is identified by approaching the predicted results with ADAMS® FTire virtual test results for one particular cleat test through the particle swarm method using MATLAB®. Based on the identified parameters, the tire model is further validated by comparing the predicted results with FTire for the static load-deflection tests and other cleat tests. Finally, several important aspects regarding the proposed model are discussed.

We have developed a technique for estimating vibrations of an automotive body structures with viscoelastic damping materials using large-scale finite element (FE) model, which will enable us to grasp and to reduce high-frequency road noise（200～500Hz）. In the new technique, first order solutions for modal loss factors are derived applying asymptotic method. This method saves calculation time to estimate modal damping as a practical tool in the design stages of the body structures. Frequency responses were calculated using this technique and the results almost agreed with the test results. This technique can show the effect of the viscoelastic damping materials on the automotive body panels, and it enables the more efficient layout of the viscoelastic damping materials. Further, we clarified damping properties of the automotive body structures under coupled vibration between frames and panels with the viscoelastic damping materials.

The drawbacks associated with bio-fuels can be minimized by making modifications to combustion chamber. Modification of combustion chamber is achieved by providing an air gap in between the crown and the body of the piston with the top crown made of low thermal conductivity material. Experimentation is carried on a diesel engine with brass as piston crown material and karanja as test fuel, which is found to be a better alternative fuel based on the tests carried out prior to modification. Investigations are carried out on the performance of the engine with modified combustion chamber consisting of air gap insulated piston with 2 mm air gap with brass crown when fuelled with karanja oil. Comparative studies are made between the two configurations of engine with and without modification at an injection timing of 29obTDC. Performance, heat balance and emission plots are made with respect to brake power. Fuel consumption increased with modification. The mechanical and volumetric efficiencies are similar in both the cases. Indicated and brake thermal efficiencies got reduced with modification. But, it is good to see that HC and CO emissions are showing positive trend. Thus, the present investigation hints the possibility of improvements while making piston modification and providing air gap insulation.

Extrinsic And Intrinsic Factors

Decomposition is a natural process that begins approximately four minutes after death and continues until the body is degraded to simpler biochemical components which are gradually recycled back to the environment. This process is dependent on extrinsic and intrinsic factors. Embalming is a chemical preservation technique that aims to preserve the external appearance of the body in good condition for an indeterminate period. In Spain, there is a lack of experimental studies carried out to analyse the variables that affect decomposition in embalmed bodies, therefore, in accordance with the conclusions reached by previous authors, it is hypothesised that embalmed bodies show quantifiable characteristics during the late stage decomposition which distinguish them from control, unembalmed, cadavers. An anthropological and statistical analysis was performed on 14 individuals from Cementerio Sur de Madrid exhumed after ten years according to the Mortuary Health Law of the Autonomous Region of Madrid. The preliminary results obtained showed that there is a qualitative and statistically significant relationship between the variables evaluated, being the presence or absence of soft tissue the most notable difference. The mortuary or thanatopraxy treatments performed before the burial and the microenvironmental conditions of the burial positively influence the soft tissue preservation on embalmed bodies. These results contribute to the understanding about the decomposition rate of an embalmed cadavers in cemeteries, and the related extrinsic variables.

A study of the properties of dispersed-reinforced concrete and a study of the effect of dispersed reinforcement on the operation of structures was carried out, mainly with a static load of the same sign. Based on the results of experimental studies, a comparison was made of the work of dispersed-laminated structures under alternating dynamic action of high intensity with the work of reinforced concrete beam elements under similar influences. The results of experimental studies of cubes and prisms for static and dynamic compression are also presented. The results of experimental studies allow us to conclude that there is a significant effect of dispersed reinforcement on the operation of structures under the investigated influences and the feasibility of combined reinforcement of structures. The use of dispersed reinforcement in structures will increase the resistance of structures to such influences.

В работе изучено влияние разных режимов ритмических экстремальных холодовых воздействий на состояние вегетативной регуляции сердечного ритма у молодых и старых крыс. По данным спектрального анализа вариабельности сердечного ритма установлено, что у молодых крыс использование температурных режимов ритмических экстремальных холодовых воздействий, РЭХВ (-120 °С; -120 °С; -120 °С) и (-60 °С; -120 °С; -120 °С) значительно повышало адаптационные возможности организма за счет активации собственных гомеостатических регуляторных систем. При этом комбинированный режим РЭХВ (-60 °С; -120 °С; -120 °С) оказался наиболее оптимальным для старых животных, поскольку его применение не сопровождалось чрезмерной активацией симпатико-адреналовой системы на ранних этапах экспериментальных исследований в отличие от режима (-120 °С; -120 °С; -120 °С). Кроме того, использование данного режима охлаждения способствовало статистически значимому увеличению показателей общей мощности спектра нейрогуморальной регуляции не столько за счет повышения активности гуморально-метаболического звена регуляции, преобладание которого характерно для пожилого возраста, сколько благодаря увеличению тонуса вегетативных центров, причем парасимпатические влияния на миокард превалировали над симпатическими. The influence of various rhythmic extreme cold effects on the state of autonomic regulation of heart rate in young and aged rats was studied. According to the spectral analysis of heart rate variability, it has been found that in young rats, using rhythmic extreme cold exposures (RECE) temperature regimens of (-120 °С; -120 °С; -120 °С) and (-60 °С; -120 °С; -120 °С) significantly increased adaptive capabilities of the body due to the activation of its own homeostatic regulatory systems. At the same time, the combined regimen of RECE (-60 °С; -120 °С; -120 °С) occurred to be the most optimal for aged animals, since its use was not accompanied with an excessive activation of sympathoadrenal system at the early stages of experimental studies, in contrast to the regimen (-120 °С; -120 °С; -120 °С). In addition, the use of this cooling mode contributed to a statistically significant increase in the total power of spectrum of neurohumoral regulation not so much due to a rise in activity of humoral-metabolic regulation link, the prevalence of which is characteristic of an old age, but due to an increase in the tone of vegetative centers, herewith the parasympathetic effects on the myocardium prevailed sympathetic ones.

Background. The deficiency of essential nutrients in the human body is the root cause of reduced efficiency, general resistance of the body to various diseases. That is an urgent problem in the context of the spread of coronavirus infection. In this regard, the search for opportunities to meet the needs of the population in food products that contain biologically active substances (BAS) through the use of high-value and at the same time available plant raw materials is extremely important. Marigolds attract special attention among such raw materials. The aim of the work is to study the chemical composition and evaluate the consumer properties of Tagetes L. varieties, zoned in the Kiev region, to prove the possibility of increasing the biological value of pasta by adding to their recipe powder from marigold inflorescences. Materials and methods. The object of research is pasta of B group (noodles). Inflorescences of marigolds of different varieties gathered during the flowering period in July-September 2019–2020 in the territory of Vasylkiv and Obukhiv districts of Kyiv region, Ukraine were used as enriching plant raw materials. The quality of finished pasta was assessed by organoleptic and physicochemical indexes (moisture content and titratable acidity). The content of mineral elements in the fine powder of marigold inflorescences was determined on the EXHERT-3L device, the quantitative composition and BAS identification – by spectrophotometric analysis on the device Specord-200 Analytic Jena UV-vis. The integrated quality index of pasta products was calculated taking into account the importance factors of individual indexes. Results. Comparing the obtained results, we can state that all the studied varieties – Gold Kopfen, Orange Flame, Hawaii, Equinox are characterized by high biological value, regardless of the area of collection. As a result of calculated and experimental studies it was determined that the addition of 7 % of the supplement does not provide the required supply of vitamins and minerals. Replacing the flour in the recipe by 20 % significantly improves the mineral composition, but deteriorates the taste and aromatic properties of pasta. The most optimal and rational amount of added additive is 15 %, as it improves the organoleptic properties of pasta and enriches their BAS. Conclusion. The usage of non-traditional vegetable raw materials, in particular powder from marigold inflorescences, which is rich in biologically active substances, allows not only to expand the range, improve the quality of finished products, but also increase the biological value of the product. The optimal amount of additive –powder from marigold inflorescences, was defined. It is 15 % by weight of flour in the production of noodles. This concentration allows not only to improve the organoleptic properties, but also to increase the content of biologically active substances – vitamins, micro- and macronutrients. The usage of non-traditional natural raw materials (powder from marigold inflorescences) allows to abandon artificial colorsand give the finished pasta a pleasant colorand aroma.
