В статье представлена методика определения Z2-потенциала энергосбережения объектов регионального электротехнического комплекса. Актуальность её разработки обоснована необходимостью повышения энергосбережения во всех отраслях региона для обеспечения экономической стабильности. Реализация этапов энергосбережения предполагает три направления: снижение и полезное использование энергетических потерь, модернизация и разработка электроустановок, использующих современные цифровые технологии и реализация научно обоснованных методов, моделей и методик, позволяющих существенно повысить энергоэффективность объектов региона. В рамках третьего направления была разработана третья методика. Теоретической основой методики является векторный ранговый анализ. Она включает в себя три расчётных блока: подготовки данных, расчёта добавочного ресурса и определения Z2-потенциала энергосбережения. Новизна методики заключается в реализации впервые разработанного математического аппарата на основе векторного рангового анализа, позволяющего при определении потенциала энергосбережения учесть внешнее управляющее воздействие вышестоящей энергосистемы. Это позволяет осуществить большую экономию денежных средств, которые расходуются на потери электроэнергии с целью модернизации электроустановок, внедрения новых технологий или премирование персонала. The article presents a methodology for determining the Z2-energy saving potential of objects of the regional electrical complex. The relevance of its development is justified by the need to increase energy conservation in all sectors of the region to ensure economic stability. The implementation of energy saving stages involves three directions: reduction and useful use of energy resources, modernization and development of electrical installations using modern digital technologies and the implementation of scientifically based methods, models and techniques that can significantly increase the energy efficiency of the region's facilities. Within the framework of the third direction, a third methodology was developed. The theoretical basis of the methodology is vector rank analysis. It includes three calculation blocks: data preparation, calculation of additional resource and determination of Z2-energy saving potential. The novelty of the technique lies in the implementation of a mathematical apparatus developed for the first time on the basis of vector rank analysis, which allows taking into account the external control influence of a higher power system when determining the energy saving potential. This makes it possible to save a lot of money that is spent on electricity losses in order to modernize electrical installations, introduce new technologies or award personnel.

First Time

At present, the problem of establishing disability is a point at issue in Russia. Despite the fact that medical criteria for disability are being developed very actively, high-quality methods for assessing social hallmarks are still lacking. Since disability is a phenomenon inherent in any society, each state forms a social and economic policy for people with disabilities in accordance with its level of development, priorities and opportunities. We have proposed a three-stage model, which includes a system for the consistent solution of the main tasks aimed at studying the causes and consequences of the problems encountered today in the social protection of citizens with health problems. The article shows why the existing approaches to the determination of disability and rehabilitation programs do not correspond to the current state of Russian society and why a decrease in the rate of persons recognized as disabled for the first time does not indicate an improvement in the health of the population. The authors proposed a number of measures with a view to correcting the situation according to the results of the study.

Annona Reticulata

A phytochemical investigation of the leaves of Annona reticulata led to the isolation and structural determination of β-sitosterol (1), ent-pimara-8(14),15-dien-19-oic acid (2), ent-pimara- 8(14),15-dien-19-ol (3), quercetin (4), quercetin 3-O-α-L-arabinopyranoside (5), and a mixture of quercetin 3-O-β-D-galactopyranoside (6a) and quercetin 3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (6b). Of these, compounds 2 and 3 were isolated from the genus Annona for the first time. Compound 3 showed strong cytotoxicity against SK-LU-1 and SW626 cell lines with IC50 values of 17.64 ± 1.07 and 19.79 ± 1.41 μg mL-1, respectively.

Background: Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), an oncogenic protein found constitutively active in many types of human malignancies, is considered to be a promising target for cancer therapy. Objective: In this study for the first time, a simple and accurate method has been developed for the determination of a STAT3 dimerization inhibitor called stattic in aqueous and plasma samples. Methods: A reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) composed of C18 column as stationary phase, and the mixture of acetonitrile (60%) and water (40%) as mobile phase with a UV detection at 215 nm were applied for quantification of stattic. The developed method was validated by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guideline. Results: The method provided a linear range between 1-40 and 2.5-40 µg mL-1 for aqueous and plasma samples, respectively, with a correlation coefficient of 0.999. The accuracy (as recovery) of the developed method was found to be between 95-105% for aqueous medium and 85-115% for plasma samples. The precision (as relative standard deviation) for aqueous and plasma samples was less than 6% and 15%, respectively. The sensitivity of the developed method based on FDA guideline was 1 µg mL-1 for aqueous and 2.5 µg mL-1 for plasma samples. Conclusion: These results show that the established method is a fast and accurate quantification for stattic in aqueous and plasma samples.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to summarise a number of presentations at Day 1 of the Internet Librarian International conference, London, UK (16 October 2018). This was the 20th conference in the series, and the three key themes included were the next-gen library and librarian; understanding users, usage and user experience; and inclusion and inspiration: libraries making a difference. Design/methodology/approach This paper reports from the viewpoint of a first-time attendee of the conference. This summarises the main issues raised by each presentation and draws out the key learning points for practical situations. Findings The conference covered a variety of practical ways in which libraries can use technology to support users and make decisions about services. These include developing interactive physical spaces which include augmented reality; introducing “chat-bots” to support users; using new techniques to analyse data; and piloting new ways to engage users (such as coding clubs). A key theme was how we use and harness data in a way that is ethical, effective and relevant to library services. Originality/value This conference focussed on practical examples of how library and information services across sectors and countries are innovating in a period of huge change. The conference gave delegates numerous useful ideas and examples of best practice and demonstrated the strength of the profession in adapting to new technologies and developments.

AbstractThe spatial variability of the aquifers' hydraulic properties can be satisfactorily described by means of scaling laws. The latter enable one to relate the small (typically laboratory) scale to the larger (typically formation/regional) ones, therefore leading de facto to an upscaling procedure. In the present study, we are concerned with the spatial variability of the hydraulic conductivity K into a strongly heterogeneous porous formation. A strategy, allowing one to identify correctly the single/multiple scaling of K, is applied for the first time to a large caisson, where the medium was packed. In particular, we show how to identify the various scaling ranges with special emphasis on the determination of the related cut-off limits. Finally, we illustrate how the heterogeneity enhances with the increasing scale of observation, by identifying the proper law accounting for the transition from the laboratory to the field scale. Results of the present study are of paramount utility for the proper design of pumping tests in formations where the degree of spatial variability of the hydraulic conductivity does not allow regarding them as “weakly heterogeneous”, as well as for the study of dispersion mechanisms.
