Polylogical Core of Modern Intercultural Interaction Models

The article is devoted to the problems of transformation and phenomenon of complication of intercultural communication models. The significance of the study lies in the fact that intercultural communication through the prism of cultural and civilizational developments reflects the sociocultural changes taking place at all levels of social development. The problem of application of theoretical knowledge about the communicative paradigm of modern culture with its polylogical core for the development of a specific model of intercultural communication and effective cultural policy relates to the difficulties of achieving compliance of the research results with the real state of the sociocultural environment. Basing on the previous and current research approaches and taking into consideration a systemic and synergistic approach as well as a dialogue concept, the authors aim to investigate theoretical modeling of intercultural interaction. As a result of investigation, the authors conclude that the study of models of intercultural interaction cannot be carried out without understanding the principles and factors of the dynamics of cultural changes in the modern world which allows us to consider the transition from a dialogue model to a polylogue model as a natural stage in the dynamics of culture. Also, the methodological set of philosophical and cultural studies of the dynamics of modern culture is proved as constantly expanding due to the new tendencies, like total digitalization. It is stated that overcoming outdated models of intercultural interaction and adopting the new ones is a long process that must be tested by the human society

Identifying Producing Horizons in Fractured Reservoirs a Far Field Acoustic Approach

The present study attempts to use 3D slowness time coherence (STC) technique to characterize the far-field fractures based on the reflector locations and attributes such as the dip and azimuth of fractures. These, in integration with the rest of the available data are used to accurately characterize the producing horizons in fractured basement reservoirs. The first step of the workflow involves the generation of 2D image to see if there are evidences of near and far wellbore reflectors. Since this is subjective in nature and does not directly provide quantitative results for discrete reflections, a new automated sonic imaging technique – 3D slowness time coherence (STC), has been incorporated to address this challenge. This method complements the image by providing the dip and azimuth for each event. The 2D and 3D maps of the reflectors can be readily available to integrate with the interpretations provided by other measurements, to better correlate and map the producing horizons. A field example is presented from the western offshore, India in which a fractured basement reservoir was examined using 3D STC technique to provide insight to the near and far field fracture network around the borehole. Few of the interpreted fractures from the resistivity image and conventional sonic fracture analysis coincide with the far field 3D STC reflectors, indicated by significant acoustic impedance. Further, the zones where the near and far field events coincide, represent a producing horizon. Comparing the near wellbore structures from the borehole images with the reflectors identified through the far field sonic imaging workflow provides necessary information to confirm the structural setting and characteristics of fractures away from the borehole. For the present case, it indicates the continuity of the fracture network away from the wellbore and explains the possibility of high production from the reservoir horizon. This study opens new perspective for identifying and evaluating fractured basement reservoirs using the sonic imaging technique. As more wells are drilled, it will be possible to better correlate and map the producing horizons in the field. This will allow better planning of location of future wells and help in optimizing field economics. A robust, automated and synergistic approach is used to locate and characterize individual arrival events which allows a more reliable understanding of the fracture extent and geologic structures. The 2D and 3D visualizations/maps can be readily integrated with the interpretations provided by other measurements.

PERSON-ORIENTED APPROACH TO FORMING SCIENTIFIC AND RESEARCH COMPETENCE OF FUTURE ENVIRONMENTALISTS

In the course of the research the theoretical and practical development of the problem of a person-oriented approach to the formation of research and development competence was analyzed. The research was conducted using a systemic synergistic approach, using general scientific methods of analysis, syn-thesis and comparison. The essence of the concepts of "person-oriented learning", " person-oriented approach" is revealed. Conditions and methods of organization of the educational process during the formation of the scientific and research competence from the standpoint of person-oriented approach are considered. It is determined that the use of developed information retrieval systems and computer tools in the educational process realizes the principles of scientific, professional orientation, practical significance and creates the necessary conditions for the implementation of an individual, differentiated person-oriented approach in the formation of research and development competence. An example of the application of a person-oriented approach in the formation of the research competence of future environmental specialists is provided with the help of the developed information-retrieval system of the purification equipment, which allows forming integrative knowledge from ecology and other branches of knowledge. The results of the research may form the basis for further scientific analysis - the development of theoretical and methodological foundations for the formation of scientific research competence of future specialists-ecologists.

Improving Sustainability of Technical Ceramics Production: Synergistic Approach

Sustainable development is a concept focused on preserving current resources for them to be available to future generations as well, while at the same time fulfilling current human needs and facilitating adequate levels of development. Nowadays, there are many possible applications of sustainability principles, such as in the fields of the economy, agriculture, environment, energy, transport, architecture, and production. Sustainable production of materials and goods aims at improving the processes which are less damaging to the environment, which conserve natural resources and use low levels of energy, possibly derived from sustainable sources. One of the intensive energy- and resource-consuming industries is the conventional production of technical ceramics. Although non-toxic, ceramic waste is generated during the machining of the green bodies and is typically landfilled. To improve the sustainability of technical ceramics production, methods of recycling ceramic waste need to be developed and applied.

Currently, there are no normative documents regulating the appropriate technology of manufacturing parts from titanium alloys at the stage from hot plastic deformation to obtaining a machined (finished) part in terms of ensuring its high-quality surface and structure. Namely, the end-to-end effect of the transformations of the workpiece material on its characteristics formed through more than one technological transition, its heredity, is not tracked. This makes it difficult to achieve the desired characteristics of the final product and increases the cost of its manufacture. We studied VT6, a titanium alloy of medium strength, and found the relationship between the parameters of forging and the stability of the cutting process, the quality of the surface and the structure of the material of the resulting part. Technological solutions proposed on the basis of a synergistic approach should provide a balanced improvement of the specified parameters and eliminate the shortcomings of the original semi-finished product.
