It is assumed that the pertinent concentration field obeys Laplace's equation, an assumption whose conditions of validity are discussed in detail and are often satisfied in practice. A dispersion law is found for the rate of change of the amplitude of the various harmonics. It is shown that the sphere is stable below and unstable above a certain radius Rc, which is just seven times the critical radius of nucleation theory; analogous conclusions are obtained for the solidification problem. The results for the sphere are used to discuss the stability of nonspherical growth forms.

Upon transmission of visible light through composites comprising of a transparent polymer matrix with embedded particles, the intensity loss by scattering is substantially reduced for particle diameters below 50–100 nm … Upon transmission of visible light through composites comprising of a transparent polymer matrix with embedded particles, the intensity loss by scattering is substantially reduced for particle diameters below 50–100 nm (nanoparticles, nanosized particles). As a consequence, related materials (nanocomposites) have found particular interest in optical studies. The first part of this article deals with a historical survey on nanoparticles and nanocomposites and the importance of small particle sizes on their optical properties. The second part focuses on results from our laboratory concerning nanocomposites with extremely high or low refractive indices and dichroic nanocomposites and their application in bicolored liquid crystal displays (LCD). The inorganic colloids required for these studies (lead sulfide, iron sulfides, gold, and silver) were prepared in situ in presence of a polymer or isolated as redispersable metal colloids modified at the surface with a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of an alkanethiol. The nanocomposites themselves were finally obtained by coprecipitation, spin coating, solvent casting or melt extrusion, with poly(ethylene oxide), gelatin, poly(vinyl alcohol) and polyethylene as matrix polymers.

It is explained … Recently, articulated buses with a capacity of 150-200 people have been increasingly used in passenger transportation. The overall length of such buses is limited to 18.5 meters. It is explained by the need to meet regulatory requirements for maneuverability. In Ukraine, the Road Traffic Rules allow the total length of a road train to be 22 meters. With this length, the passenger capacity of the articulated bus increases significantly, but the issues of maneuverability and stability of such buses remain open. Preliminary studies have shown that even a bus with a total length of 18.75 m with an unmanageable trailer axle does not meet the requirements of regulatory documents for maneuverability. Using a self-aligning trailer axle meets the requirements for maneuverability even with an articulated bus length of up to 20.0 m. Still, the question of the stability of such a bus remains open. Using a specified mathematical model of a two-link road train adapted for an articulated bus with a self-aligning trailer axle, the stability indicators of an articulated bus in different driving modes were determined. It is shown that the critical velocity of the articulated bus with the blocked wheels of the trailer's self-aligning axle was 31.87 m/s, which significantly exceeds the maximum velocity of the bus. In the presence of a perturbation, the pattern of changes in the lateral and angular velocities of the articulated bus during the transition process at a velocity of 6 m/s is damped by a logarithmic law, which indicates the stability of the articulated bus movement. When the velocity is increased to 12 m/s, the pattern of changes in lateral and angular velocities also dampens. Still, there are more intense oscillations, which at a velocity of 14 m/s become divergent, leading to a loss of stability of the articulated bus. Similar results were obtained when the rotation of the articulated bus was 90 degrees. Thus, the maximum velocity of the articulated bus with unlocked wheels of the trailer's self-aligning axle should not exceed 14 m/s. When this velocity is reached, the wheels of the self-aligning axis should lock. It determines the field of application of the self-aligning trailer axle on articulated buses. For driving at higher velocities, fundamentally new control systems for the bus control and the articulated bus trailer are needed.

An improved nonlinear mathematical model of the operation of the hydraulic drive of the garbage truck’s sealing plate mechanism is proposed, which takes into account the wear of the hydraulic cylinder and allows to numerically study the dynamics of the drive and determine that taking into account the wear of the hydraulic cylinder significantly affects the main parameters of the hydraulic drive of the garbage truck’s sealing plate mechanism. This study of the mathematical model was carried out using the fourth-order numerical Runge-Kutta-Felberg method with an adaptive integration step. Graphical dependencies were plotted to compare changes in the main parameters of the hydraulic drive of the garbage truck’s sealing plate mechanism without taking into account the wear of the hydraulic cylinder and with taking into account the wear. It has been established that the creation of a linearized mathematical model of the hydraulic drive of the garbage truck’s sealing plate mechanism, taking into account the wear of the hydraulic cylinder

Special attention is paid to the specifics of working with assemblies in the full-featured NX CAD system, as well as the process of creating a three-dimensional model of a part in SolidWorks. The application areas of graphics systems such as NX and CATIA are also considered. The principle of building a 3D model in the T-FLEX CAD system is investigated. In addition, the possibilities, approaches, and principles of operation of applications of the Creo Parametric graphics system are analyzed. To improve the performance and quality of work in graphics systems, it is recommended to use each of them in those areas of industry where they demonstrate clear advantages. In the engineering industry, the use of the Creo Parametric CAD system is especially advantageous, as it allows you to combine two approaches — parametric and direct modeling. Furthermore, it is convenient to work with small applications and supports the import of formats from computer-aided design (CAD) systems from other manufacturers.

The research method used was quantitative with an experimental method. The design used was Quasi Experimental with a Non-equivalent Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling, with two classes divided into one experimental class of 36 students who received the treatment and one control class of 36 students who did not receive the treatment. The total sample in this study was 72 students. The instruments used in the study were test questions (pretest & posttest) on mathematical problem-solving skills and a questionnaire. The data analysis techniques used were the independent sample t-test, the Mann-Whitney U test, N-Gain analysis, and questionnaire processing. The analysis of initial ability showed a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.482 ≥ 0.05. Therefore, there was no significant difference in the initial mathematical problem-solving ability of the students. After both classes were given different treatments, the results showed Sig. (2-tailed) 0.000 ≤ 0.05, indicating a significant difference in problem-solving ability between the control class and the experimental class. The questionnaire results showed that the students gave positive responses and demonstrated high interest. The open-ended approach and the Genially platform are effectively used in mathematics learning to enhance students' mathematical problem-solving skills.

The three classic ancient Greek mathematical challenges likely referring to are “Doubling The Circle”, “Trisecting An Angle” & “Squaring The Circle”, all famously proven Impossible under strict compass-and-straightedge constraints, by Pierre Wantzel (1837) using field theory and algebraic methods, then also by Ferdinand von Lindemann (1882) after proving π is transcendental. These original Greek challenges remain impossible under classical rules since their proofs rely on deep algebraic/transcendental properties settled in the 19th century. Recent claims may involve reinterpretations or unrelated advances but do overturn these conclusions above. Among these, the "Squaring The Circle" problem and related problems involving π have captivated both professional and amateur mathematicians for millennia. The title of this paper refers to the concept of "constructing a circle that has the exact area of a given equilateral triangle " or “Circling The Triangle”. This research idea arose after the “Squaring The Circle” problem was studied, solved and published in “SJPMS” in 2024 [8]. This paper presents an exact solution to constructing a circle that is concentric with and has the same area as any given regular triangle. The solution does not rely on the number π and adheres strictly to the constraints of Euclidean geometry, using only a straightedge and compass. The technique of “GEOMETRY ANALYSIS” is employed to solve this “Circling The Triangle” problem precisely and exactly with only a straightedge and compass, without altering any premise of the problem. This independent research demonstrates the solution to the challenge using only these tools. All mathematical tools and propositions in this solution are derived from Euclidean geometry. The methodology involves geometric methods to arrange the given regular triangle and its equal-area circle into a concentric po

Cardanol ZHSOK (cashew nut shell liquid) is considered as a stabilizing agent. It has been established that ZHSOK is an effective reactive modifier. Polymerization of cardanol should be carried out at a temperature of 150 °C. The maximum stabilizing effect occurs when the cardanol content in the wood is 9%. When alder was modified with cardanol, the wood samples turned out to be more resistant to moisture. Volumetric swelling is reduced by 40–70%, moisture absorption – by 21.4–50% in comparison with analogues modified by KFK-10. Compressive strength increased by 21.7–37.2% in comparison with KFK-10. The use of LCOCS will completely eliminate the toxicity of manufactured products.

This work aims to formulate an innovative approach for modeling design solutions using model-parametric spaces to create a systematically structured yet convenient method for dealing with multidimensional design complexities. This investigation is conducted within a mixed-method research design combining qualitative assessments of system architecture with quantitative modeling techniques to formulate parametric spaces where design variables and their interrelations are parameterized systematically. The validation of that methodology was done in a way that involves simulated operational scenarios and expert-driven evaluation, which shows the robustness and versatility of the understanding achieved using the approach in different fields of study. Results reveal the utility of model-parametric spaces in vastly increasing the interpretability, modularity, and optimization capability of complex design processes. Therefore, the study argues that this methodology framework is a solid and reasoned basis for decisions in the systems engineering domain and positively explains both research and industrial applications. These future research trajectories determined by this study include further extensive validation within actual project settings to make the developed software more applicable and impactful in the physical world.

Three methods for representing the mesh geometry are pro-posed and analyzed: the intersection of the planes of a triangle and its normals, orthogonal pla-nes for each vertex, and the intersection of the planes of adjacent triangles. An experimental study was conducted to evaluate the efficiency of each method in modeling two types of non-linear deformations: twisting around the Z-axis and nonlinear volume expansion. The accuracy of shape recovery after deformation and the performance of the algorithms were evaluated. The research results showed that the best balance between accuracy and speed is achieved by the method of defining vertices through the intersection of the planes of adja-cent triangles. At the same time, its limitations were analyzed, particularly its dependence on the non-parallelism of planes, and the use of the Moore-Penrose pseudoinverse matrix was pro¬posed to resolve ambiguities in the transformations.

We develop a framework based on algebraic geometry to systematically simplify the optimization over separable (SEP) channels, providing a good approximation of LOCC. As a first application, we generalize previous results on the one-shot entanglement cost of non-local operations in a unified way. Via the generalization, we also resolve an open problem posed by Yu et al. regarding the entanglement cost of local state discrimination. As a second application, we strengthen the Doherty--Parrilo--Spedalieri hierarchy and numerically determine the trade-off between the entanglement cost and the success probability of implementing various non-local operations under separable channels---such as entanglement distillation, non-local unitary channels, measurements, and state verification.

Rheological measurements were carried out on a Haake Viscotester iQ rheometer equipped with a CC25 coaxial cylinder measuring system. Temperature control was carried out by a Peltier element built into the rheometer. In the oscillatory mode, at a rotor oscillation frequency of 1 Hz, amplitude sweeps were obtained for the gel formed from the initial compositions, and the LVE range was determined. Then, in the strain-controlled mode, at a strain value of 0.1 from the range of linear viscoelasticity, the kinetic dependences were obtained for the elastic modulus G', loss modulus G'' and complex viscosity |η*| for compositions that differ in the ratio of crosslinker components at room temperature. It was shown that in all studied systems, at the initial moments of time, a sharp increase in rheological characteristics is observed - a gel begins to form already at the moment of mixing the components. Further, over time, the rate of increase in G', G'' and |η*| decreases, and the rheokinetic curves reach an almost horizontal section - a three-dimensional structure - a gel - is formed in the entire volume of the sample. It was found that the recorded curves change symbatically under experimental conditions, and the ratio of the components of the complex module is related to the concentration of the crosslinker. For a composition with an increased crosslinker concentration, the elastic properties of the emerging structure predominate (G' &gt; G''), while, compared to a less concentrated crosslinker composition, the strength of the structure increases, and the recorded values of the components of the complex modulus differ by an order of magnitude.

The school course of basic … Continuity is very important at the intersection of school and higher education. In particular, it concerns the continuity of mathematical analysis at school and university. The school course of basic mathematical analysis brings up mathematical culture and scientific outlook. It is crucial for higher education in physics, mathematics, and information technology. To structure the course of mathematical analysis and prevent possible difficulties, the university professor needs to actualize the existing knowledge and skills in first-year students by providing the continuity of theory and practice. The article describes the methodological approach to continuity for some mathematical formulas in the university course of mathematical analysis, i.e., the two-degree summation formulas of Newton’s binomial formula of reduced multiplication and the formula of the sum of infinitely decreasing geometric series. In algebra and mathematical analysis, these formulas are used to work with polynomials and analytic functions. These formulas and their generalized versions allow university students to use more rational and creative methods of mathematical analysis for calculating limits of sequences and functions. They provide a universal method that can be applied to problems of the theory of limits in the course of mathematical analysis at school and university. The case is an example of effective continuity of mathematical education in the school-university system.

Key aspects of working with 2D … The study analyzes and defines the current state of technologies in creating graphic images and outlines the main problems that need to be solved. Key aspects of working with 2D and 3D graphics are highlighted, and the features of their combination are determined. Modern IT solutions in this area are analyzed, which makes it possible to assess the available technologies and their limitations. In particular, it was found that most existing software products are focused mainly on 2D graphics, while the integration of 3D elements remains insufficiently implemented or difficult for non-programmer users. The analysis identified the main shortcomings of the current technologies, including limited use of 3D objects in 2D compositions, insufficiently effective graphic layer management tools, and the lack of a cen-tralized search and reuse mechanism for materials. To solve these problems, possible ways of improvement were considered, including implementing a web application with extended sup-port for 3D graphics, intuitive interfaces, and an integrated resource search system.
Müasir sement sənayesində portlantsementin çatışmadığı bir şəraitdə 200...300 markalı azklinkerli və klinkersiz yapışdırıcıların alınma texnologiyalarının yaradılması vacibdir.

Digər tərəfdən yanacaq-enerji məsrəflərinin artdığı bir dövrdə istehsal prosesində onların sərfinin aşağı salınması buraxılan məhsulun səmərəliliyinin artırılması yollarından biri sayıla bilər. Ona görə də sement istehsalı sənayesində emal üçün daha az yanacaq-enerji məsrəfləri tələb edən və portlandsementə nisbətən 2...2,5 dəfə az kapital qoyuluşuna malik klinkersiz sementin istehsalı iqtisadi cəhətdən səmərəlidir. Hazırkı tədqiqat işində klinkersiz sement daşının məsaməli quruluşunun onun möhkəmliyinə təsiri araşdırılmışdır. Məlum olmuşdur ki, klinkersiz sement əsasında olan sement daşlarının məsaməli quruluşu, klinker sementinə nisbətən geniş diapazonda dəyişir. Ona görə də, klinkersiz sement daşının möhkəmliyini artırmaq üçün ən səmərəli üsullardan biri etilen-propilen polimerinin (heptanda 16%-li məhlulu) yapışdırıcının tərkibinə qatılmasıdır. Müəyyən olunmuşdur ki, etilen-propilen polimeri sement daşının məsaməli quruluşunu nizamlayaraq onun möhkəmliyini 20-25% artırmışdır. Açar sözlər: etilen-propilen polimeri, n-heptan, əhəng, seolit, kül, qips.

The aim to reduce health risks of workers related to inhalative exposure to potentially toxic dusts requires the selection of appropriate measures depending on the hazard classification of the dust-composing … The aim to reduce health risks of workers related to inhalative exposure to potentially toxic dusts requires the selection of appropriate measures depending on the hazard classification of the dust-composing materials. Due to their biodurability, respirable carbon fibers and their fragments can impose such health risks but are currently lacking hazard classification. Here, a method is presented for fragmenting carbon fiber materials and enriching fibrous fragments to a level that is expected to allow differentiating between fiber and particle overload-related toxic effects. The method was applied to a commercial polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fiber. It was ground in an oscillating ball mill, homogenized in a liquid using ultrasonication and left undisturbed for gravitational settling. This way, a vertical gradient in particle size and shape formed, from which the supernatant was collected. Fragment morphologies were characterized with large ensemble statistics by semi-automated evaluation of scanning electron microscopy images employing an artificial neural network for binary semantic segmentation. The number of fibrous fragments of respirable and thus critical fiber morphology was increased from 0.36×106 to 6×106 WHO-analog fibers per mg. This corresponds to a factor of about 15 compared to the initial ground material. Since the mass percentage of non-fibrous objects was also significantly reduced, the requirements for a subsequently scheduled toxicological study with intraperitoneal application were fulfilled. Intraperitoneal testing is an accepted method for assessing the carcinogenic potential of biopersistent fibers. The developed method allows enriching fibrous fractions of concern at acceptable throughput and enables testing fiber toxicological effects of respirable fragments from disintegrated polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fibers.
The most famous theorem on the angle trisector of a triangle is Morley’s theorem, namely the existence of an equilateral triangle formed from the trisector of its three angles. In … The most famous theorem on the angle trisector of a triangle is Morley’s theorem, namely the existence of an equilateral triangle formed from the trisector of its three angles. In this article, the mixtilinear excircle concept will be developed for triangles formed by constructing angle trisectors in a triangle. The results obtained will be expressed in the form of a theorem which states the ratio of several mixtilinear excircles whose value is equal to one. Apart from that, the ratio of several mixtilinear excircles can also be expressed in tangen form of the angles formed.
