    Moscow doctor A.G. Dreytser – author of "The Notes of an Ambulance physician"

    No full text
    We have attempted to present the scientific biography of Alexander Grigorievich Dreytser, the author of "The Notes of an Ambulance physician" – a popular documentary work on the life of Moscow and Muscovites during the Great Patriotic War. We have reconstructed the main points of life and activities of A.G. Dreytser and discovered a number of facts in his biography related to his studying at Strasbourg University (1911–1914) and Imperial Moscow University (1915–1917), participation in the First World War and activities in 1918–1941. The analysis of the materials stored in the State Archive of the Russian Federation, the Central State Archive of the City of Moscow, the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art, as well as the personal archive of the Dreytser family, allowed us to clarify many points related to Dreytser's life and activities during the time prior to the creation of The Notes. This article is based upon the results of a comparative analysis of the texts of The Notes and A.G. Dreytser's Ph.D. dissertation "The Material on the Question of Sudden Death: According to the Data of Morgues, Moscow City Emergency Stations and the Department of Clinical Examination of the Central Polyclinic of the People's Commissariat for Health of the USSR". This article considers the hypothesis of the unity of the events that took place in Moscow during the Great Patriotic War and were described in the dissertation and The Notes. More complete historical and biographical data on A.G. Dreytser allowed us to prove the documentary nature of The Notes, expand the scope of known facts about the organisation of medicine during the war and clarify some circumstances of the history of Russian medicine as a whole

    A modified Rayleigh conjecture for static problems

    No full text
    AbstractA modified Rayleigh conjecture (MRC) in scattering theory was proposed and justified by the author [A.G. Ramm, Modified Rayleigh conjecture and applications, J. Phys. A 35 (2002) L357–L361]. The MRC allows one to develop efficient numerical algorithms for solving boundary-value problems. It gives an error estimate for solutions. In this paper the MRC is formulated and proved for static problems

    The influence of steady blowing and roughness on transitional separated boundary layers

    No full text
    This paper presents the results of a study between two types of forcing, namely steady blowing and a tripwire, on the control of laminar separated boundary layers. The analysis focuses on the differences in the transition process between these two types of forcing. This effect will be studied using direct numerical simulation. The main differences consists in the coherent structures formed during transition and the overall kinetic energy growth

    Hybrid position and vibration control of nonlinear crane system

    No full text
    This paper presents comparative assessments of input shaping techniques using two different approaches, for sway reduction of cranes system. First, the shaper was designed at maximum load hoisting length while the second was designed at average load hoisting length. These were accomplished using curve fitting toolbox in MATLAB. In both caseZero Vibration (ZV), Zero Vibration Derivative (ZVD) and Zero Vibration Derivative Derivatives (ZVDD) were designed. Average hoisting length (AHL) shapers performed better than the Maximum hoisting length (MHL) shapers. Proportional integral derivative (PID) was incorporated for position control. After successful implementation, Simulation results show that a precise payload positioning was achieved. AHL-ZVDD has superior performances in sway reduction and robustness

    Trapping of the fruit-flies, Dacus Spp. (Diptera: Tephritidae) with methyl eugenol in orchards

    Field trapping of fruit-flies Dacus spp. (Diptera: Tephritidae) using methyl eugenol over a five week period was conducted in a fruit farm at Gombaky Selangor. The results showed that traps with slit holes caught the greatest number of fruit-flies. Over 85% of the flies caught were male, Dacus dorsalis, Hendel. When different formulations of methyl eugenolMalathion 50EC + methyl eugenol} Carbaryl 85 S + methyl eugenol, Dipterex SP 95% + methyl eugenol and distilled water -f methyl eugenol were tested at Serdang significant differences were only detected in the number of flies trapped in those traps with methyl eugenol + insecticides and those with methyl eugenol alone. The technique used was effective in controlling the fruit-flies for there was a reduction of 20% of damaged carambola fruits

    Character Nicknames in A.G. Alexin’s Works

    No full text
    This article is dedicated to the description and analysis of nicknames in narratives and stories by A.G. Alexin. By nicknames the author means not only the denominations of people but also of inanimate objects and groups of people. According to their usage properties, nicknames are divided into vocative (used as addresses), invocative (used only in talks about a third person) and mental (existing only in the nominator’s consciousness). Characterological nicknames prevail over other ones and reflect different properties and groups of properties of nominates; nicknames derived from first names, surnames as well as from first names, surnames and nicknames of the nominate’s relatives occupy a very modest place. Not only do nicknames disclose the properties of nominators and nominates, but also the author’s attitude to the characters. The article also considers phenomena similar to nicknames, i.e. the use of names disregarding etiquette, universal addresses and expressive denominations.Данная статья посвящена описанию и анализу прозвищ в повестях и рассказах А. Г. Алексина. Под прозвищами понимаются наименования не только лиц, но и неодушевленных предметов, и групп людей. С точки зрения особенностей употребления прозвища делятся на вокативные (употребляемые как обращения), невокативные (употребляемые только в разговорах о третьем лице) и мысленные (существующие лишь в сознании номинатора). Среди прозвищ преобладают характерологические; весьма скромное место занимают прозвища отыменные, отфамильные и генесионимические. Характерологические прозвища отражают самые разные признаки и сочетания признаков номинатов. Прозвища раскрывают не только особенности номинаторов и номинатов, но и авторское отношение к персонажам. Рассмотрены также явления, сходные с прозвищами: неэтикетное употребление имен, универсальные слова-обращения, экспрессивные наименования
