Structural and topological analysis of electric energy consumption of municipalities as the basis for the development of the regional energy efficiency strategy

The amplifying polarization of the development of municipalities, the concentration of megalopolises' development possibilities and the decrease of potential of the development of small territories make it urgent to create tools for monitoring, estimating and forecasting of the electric energy consumption in order to develop the regional energy efficiency strategy, which will facilitate the sustainable development of municipalities. The paper gives the authors' definition of the energy efficiency of municipal units as the degree of real electric energy consumption compliance with the indicators of efficient energy consumption, along with providing comfortable habitation for the residents. The target indicators of municipal units' energy efficiency can be achieved by the efficient consumption and usage of electric energy. The authors carried out structural and topological analysis of electric energy consumption municipal units of the region, based on the sustainable development methodology. The formulated S-distributions of electric energy consumption of municipal units revealed a self-organization regularities in the region, which were reflected in municipal units' three-zone rating, formulated in accordance with electric energy consumption intensity. The results of the structural and topological analysis of electric energy consumption in absolute indicators and competitive speed indexes (intensity of electric energy consumption) are the basis for electric energy consumption forecasting of the region, as an integral structure formed by municipal units. © 2014 WIT Press.International Journal of Safety and Security Engineering;International Journal of Sustainable Development and Planning;WIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environmen

Evolution of Military Hospitals Architecture in Russia from 1707 Year Till Nowadays

In article authors show the history of evolution of military hospitals in Russia from 1707. More than 300 years are presented in a short to draw a picture of development of this type of buildings. Special attention is devoted to the modern projects and their characteristics. Also authors consider field and mobile hospitals, their constructivepeculiar properties and predictable future of this sphere

Архитектурно-планировочный анализ Демидовского заводского госпиталя: история почти 200-летней эксплуатации

Article is devoted to history one of the first Ural medical institutions — Demidovsky factory hospital. Authors consider architectural and planning decisions, reconstruction questions, condition of hospital today. During reconstruction the 120 beds hospital turned into clinic on 250 visits, its operation doesn’t stop and today.Статья посвящена истории одного из первых уральских лечебных учреждений — Демидовскому заводскому госпиталю. Авторы рассматривают архитектурно-планировочные решения, вопросы реконструкции, состояние госпиталя на сегодняшний день. В ходе реконструкции госпиталь на 120 коек превратился в поликлинику на 250 посещений, его эксплуатация не прекращается и сегодня

TECHNOLOGY FOR TEST-SYSTEMS FOR DIAGNOSIS OF MODIFIED PROTEINS (PROTEOPATHY) UNDERLYING SOCIAL DISEASES (Report 2)

A high-tech technology for highly sensitive test systems is proposed based on conjugates "polymer microsphere-bioligand" for express diagnosis of autoantibodies to the modified protein (proteopathy) for example, thyroglobulin, using the method of latex agglutination reaction (in vitro).A high-tech technology for highly sensitive test systems is proposed based on conjugates "polymer microsphere-bioligand" for express diagnosis of autoantibodies to the modified protein (proteopathy) for example, thyroglobulin, using the method of latex agglutination reaction (in vitro)
