USE OF PARALLEL AND FACET ASSIGNMENTS IN THE SYSTEM OF DISTANT LEARNING “MOODLE”

The paper describes features and advantages of parallel and facet tests and tasks, their implementation in various popular learning management systems. Principles of functioning and advantages of developed module for LMS Moodle are described. The developed module implements facet approach and allows further development

Formation of the equivalent heat source for calculating strains in structures in electron beam welding

A method for determining the distribution of the power of an equivalent source, based on the numerical solution of the inverse heat conductivity problem, is described. It is shown that the equivalent source can be used for solving the thermal-strain problems in the MARC package, in which it is sufficient to describe in the special sub-program the movement of the line of action of the beam inside the finite element mesh and calculate the distribution of the power for the mesh parameters. © 2013 © 2013 Taylor & Francis

EPIDEMIOLOGICAL MONITORING OF AVIAN INFLUENZA IN THE REPUBLIC OF CRIMEA

The paper presents the results of monitoring tests performed in the FGBI “ARRIAH” Branch in 2018 to detect AIV circulation in the Republic of Crimea. As AIVs are most frequently detected in aquatic and semiaquatic birds wild waterfowl present the greatest threat of the disease introduction and spread. That’s why the paper gives special attention to the Azov Sea and Sivash water area and describes natural biotopes of the Central and Eastern Sivash. During expeditions biological material samples were collected, bird species were identified and bird fauna was estimated in waterfowl aggregation sites. Laboratory PCR tests of the biological material collected during the expedition as well from killed birds and poultry revealed no AIV type A. As the number of wildfowl in the their usual aggregation sites decreased due to the fact that fresh water supply through the North-Crimean Canal ceased it can be assumed that the Crimean peninsula will manage to maintain HPAI freedom despite the fact that the disease is being reported close to the peninsula. Nevertheless, the threat of the virus introduction to the commercial and backyard farm stocks still exists as the peninsula is located in the bird migration routes and AI epidemical monitoring is a topical task

Surface elasticity models: Comparison through the condition of the anti-plane surface wave propagation

In order to discuss the peculiarities of few models of surface elasticity we consider here the dispersion relations for anti-plane surface waves. We show that the dispersion curves are quite sensitive to the choice of the model. We consider here the linear Gurtin-Murdoch model, strain- and stress-gradient surface elasticity models
