Transformation of approaches to determine influence factors in the economic development models
Purpose: The research paper deals with the development of new scientific solutions regarding the identification of influence factors in the economic development models for developed and developing countries. The paper emphasizes the key significance of modelling within the framework of the study of economic growth at the level of world, national and regional economies (macro- and mesolevel). Design/methodology/approach: To achieve the objectives of this study the main components of economic development models were discussed. Findings: The transformation of the approaches of scholars to identify the influence factors within the historical change of the economic development models is noted. It was emphasized that the overwhelming majority of scholars use three factors of influence (land, labour, capital) and their derivatives in the “old”, “new” and regional economic development models, which is insufficient in the current conditions of economic systems at the macro- and mesolevel. Practical implications: Two related economic development models for developed countries and developing countries are proposed for use; key influence factors within these models are identified. Originality/value: It is emphasized that capital, human resources, level of innovations and competitive advantages are important for ensuring the economic development of developed countries, and the level of corruption and the level of the shadow economy are added to the above-mentioned components for developing countries.peer-reviewe
Design of Pre-Dumping Ring Spin Rotator with a Possibility of Helicity Switching for Polarized Positrons at the ILC
The use of polarized beams enhance the possibility of the precision
measurements at the International Linear Collider (ILC). In order to preserve
the degree of polarization during beam transport spin rotators are included in
the current TDR ILC Lattice. In this report some advantages of using a combined
spin rotator/spin flipper are discussed. A few possible lattice designs of spin
flipper developed at DESY in 2012 are presented.Comment: Talk presented at the International Workshop on Future Linear

Geomagnetic control of the spectrum of traveling ionospheric disturbances based on data from a global GPS network
International audienceIn this paper an attempt is made to verify the hypothesis of the role of geomagnetic disturbances as a factor in determining the intensity of traveling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs). To improve the statistical validity of the data, we have used the method involving a global spatial averaging of disturbance spectra of the total electron content (TEC). To characterize the TID intensity quantitatively, we suggest that a new global index of the degree of disturbance should be used, which is equal to the mean value of the rms variations in TEC within the selected range of spectral periods (of 20? 60 min, in the present case). The analysis has been made for a set of 100 to 300 GPS stations for 10 days with a different level of geomagnetic activity (Dst from 0 to ?350 nT; the Kp index from 3 to 9). It was found that power spectra of daytime TEC variations in the range of 20?60 min periods under quiet conditions have a power-law form with the slope index k = ?2.5. With an increase in the level of magnetic disturbance, there is an increase in the total intensity of TIDs, with a concurrent kink of the spectrum caused by an increase in oscillation intensity in the range of 20?60 min. The TEC variation amplitude is found to be smaller at night than during the daytime, and the spectrum decreases in slope, which is indicative of a disproportionate increase in the amplitude of the small-scale part of the spectrum. It was found that an increase in the level of geomagnetic activity is accompanied by an increase in the total intensity of TEC; however, it does not correlate with the absolute level of Dst, but rather with the value of the time derivative of Dst (a maximum correlation coefficient reaches ?0.94). The delay of the TID response of the order of 2 hours is consistent with the view that TIDs are generated in auroral regions, and propagate equatorward with the velocity of about 300?400 m/s
Simulating non-Markovian stochastic processes
We present a simple and general framework to simulate statistically correct
realizations of a system of non-Markovian discrete stochastic processes. We
give the exact analytical solution and a practical an efficient algorithm alike
the Gillespie algorithm for Markovian processes, with the difference that now
the occurrence rates of the events depend on the time elapsed since the event
last took place. We use our non-Markovian generalized Gillespie stochastic
simulation methodology to investigate the effects of non-exponential
inter-event time distributions in the susceptible-infected-susceptible model of
epidemic spreading. Strikingly, our results unveil the drastic effects that
very subtle differences in the modeling of non-Markovian processes have on the
global behavior of complex systems, with important implications for their
understanding and prediction. We also assess our generalized Gillespie
algorithm on a system of biochemical reactions with time delays. As compared to
other existing methods, we find that the generalized Gillespie algorithm is the
most general as it can be implemented very easily in cases, like for delays
coupled to the evolution of the system, where other algorithms do not work or
need adapted versions, less efficient in computational terms.Comment: Improvement of the algorithm, new results, and a major reorganization

Щодо розрахунку деформацій зсуву в призматичних стержнях із полімерних матеріалів за умов розтягу з крученням
The process of creep of prismatic rods made of linear-viscoelastic polymeric materials under combined loading is considered. Defining equations that determine the relationship between strains, stresses and time are given in the form of a superposition of shear and bulk strain. The object of study is prismatic bars made of fiberglass ST-1. The area of linearity of the model is substantiated on the basis of the hypothesis of the existence of the creep function, which is built on the yield curves, a single diagram of long-term deformation and the statistical value of the quantile of statistics. The region of linear-elastic deformation is recognized based on the fulfillment of the condition of existence of a single creep function. The defining equations of the model contain a set of functions and coefficients determined from the basic experiments. On the basis of the relations between the kernels of the one-dimensional stress state, the parameters of the kernels under the condition of a complex stress state are determined. The linearity of viscoelastic properties is given by the Boltzmann-Voltaire equations. The fractional-exponential kernels of heredity are chosen as the kernels of heredity. The obtained values of the core parameters are used to calculate the creep deformations of prismatic bars made of ST-1 fiberglass under conditions of simultaneous tensile tension.

Language of the article: UkrainianРозглядається процес повзучості призматичних стержнів з лінійно-в’язкопружних полімерних матеріалів за умов комбінованого навантаження. Визначальні рівняння, що описують залежність між деформаціями, напруженнями і часом, задаються у вигляді суперпозиції зсувної і об’ємної деформації. Об’єктом дослідження являються призматичні стержні зі склопластику СТ-1. Обґрунтовується область лінійності моделі, виходячи з гіпотези існування функції повзучості, побудованої по кривим податливості, єдиної діаграми довготривалого деформування і статистичного значення квантиля статистики. Визначається область лінійно-пружного деформування, виходячи з виконання умови існування єдиної функції повзучості. Визначальні рівняння моделі містять набір функцій і коефіцієнтів, що знаходяться з базових експериментів. На підставі співвідношень між ядрами одновимірного напруженого стану визначаються параметри ядер за умови складного напруженого стану. Лінійність в'язкопружних властивостей задається рівняннями Больцмана-Вольтера з дробово-експоненціальним ядром спадковості. Отримані значення параметрів ядер використовуються для розрахунку деформацій повзучості призматичних стержнів зі склоапластика СТ-1 за умов одночасної дії розтягу з крученням
