Religious and philosophical psychology in the works of N.M. Bogolyubov
No full textWe present the results of historical and psychological research filling the gaps of contemporary knowledge about personalities of religious and philosophical direction of Russian psychology in late XIX – early XX centuries. The author introduces the biography of events and the views of Russian psychologist N.M. Bogolyubov – a man of uneasy fate, embodied in his work the idea of spiritual practice in the analysis and description of a person's inner world. Psychological works of N.M. Bogolyubov reflect the views common for Russian spiritual direction in psychology: consideration of man's inner world by revealing how mental experience is given to the person, his self, recognition of the soul as a sphere of inner reality, recognition of the mental world of a person as an independent entity, living by its own laws, which do not depend on the laws of the material world, asserting that faith can be a valid knowledge. In the arsenal of creative achievements of N.M. Bogolyubov are determination of the value of psychology in studying the problem of religious consciousness and professionalism as a necessary quality of a researcher psychologist in the field
An improved thick-film piezoelectric material by powder blending and enhanced processing parameters
No full textThis paper details improvements of the d33 coefficient for thick-film lead zirconate titanate (PZT) layers. In particular, the effect of blending ball and attritor milled powders has been investigated. Mathematical modeling of the film structure has produced initial experimental values for powder combination percentages. A range of paste formulations between 8:1 and 2:1 ball to attritor milled PZT powders by weight have been mixed into a screen-printable paste. Each paste contains 10% by weight of lead borosilicate glass and an appropriate quantity of solvent to formulate a screen printable thixotropic paste. A d33 of 63.5 pC/N was obtained with a combination of 4:1 ball milled to attritor milled powder by weight. The improved paste combines the high d33 values of ball and the consistency of attritor milled powder. The measured d33 coefficient was further improved to 131 pC/N by increasing the furnace firing pro-file to 100

N.M. JADRINTSEV AND ALTAY: RESEARCH ACTIVITIES OF THE PUBLICIST AND HIS ROLE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF ALTAI PERIODICALS
No full textPurpose. The purpose of this article is to study the role of Nikolai Mikhailovich Yadrintseva in the course of development of the Altai periodicals and its research and statistical activities in the Altai.
Methodology. When writing the article were used General scientific methods like analysis, comparison, generalization.
Results. As a result, the author analyzed the research, ethnographic and statistical activities of Nikolai Mikhailovich Yadrintsev in the Altai. Visiting with the research mission Altai, N.M. Yadrintsev published grandiose essays and articles not only about the ethnographic side of the Altaian “aliens”, but also was able to give his inhabitants a map of the locality and a detailed description of meteorological observations. The role of N.M. Yadrintsev in the development of the Altai periodicals and gives a general description of the newspaper “Eastern Review” under his leadership. Despite the fact that publications on behalf of N.M. Yadrintsev in the Altai were not preserved, with the exception of a small quatrain, he managed to raise the provincial periodicals to a completely new level. Together with Siberian correspondents, he was able to inspire a whole generation, as a result of which universities, museums and numerous Siberian publishing houses began to develop in the cities of Siberia. With the arrival of Nikolai Mikhailovich in the Altai, the periodical press noticeably developed and strengthened.
Practical implications. The article can be used in the teaching of local history, the history of Russia and Russian journalism

Optimal Operation of a Network of Multi-purpose Reservoir: A Review
No full textAbstractDue to the effects of climate change and population growth, reservoirs play a more and more important role in water resources management. The management of a multi-reservoir system is complex due to the curse of dimensionalities, nonlinearities and conflicts between different objectives. The optimal operation of a multi-reservoir system operation typically involves optimization and simulation models, which can provide the quantitative information to improve operational water management. The objectives of this paper are to extend previous state-of-the-art reviews in the operational management of a network of multi-purpose reservoirs with recent developments and to focus on the application of Model Predictive Control for real time control of a reservoir system
