On specific energy capacity of flywheel energy storage

© 2014 D. V. Berezhnoi, D. E. Chickrin and A. F. Galimov. The paper introduces basic methods of computational investigation for specific energy capacity of flywheel energy storage. In addition to the traditional estimation of energy capacity on the kinetic energy specific potential energy estimation of elastic strain is added. The possibilities of the use of various structural materials in the manufacture of flywheels is analyzed, some recommendations on the form of flywheel are given. "Extended" estimation of energy capacity which is used in this paper gives greater variability in the design of flywheel energy storage. In some cases it allows the reduction of the rotational speed of the rotor part of the structure

Effect of insolation variations on vegetations of the Eurasian subarctic during the Holocene

Variation of the insolation is one of the global factors which determine the Earth's climate. Multi-periodic variations of the insolation determine the cyclicity of the Earth's climate. The aim of the investigation is the estimation of the insolation variations influence on vegetations of the Urals and West Siberia subarctic during the Holocene. The calculation of insolation in the Eurasian Subarctic for the Holocene is carried out based on the solution La2004 for the long-period evolution of the Earth's orbit. We have estimated the insolation for the latitudes from 55° to 70° N. We have considered the mean daily and mean monthly insolation over 12 ka BP. We assess changes of the insolation in the Eurasian subarctic under the influence of such factor as the topography evolution. The surface topography was analyzed for the recent period (in the Urals and West Siberia) and the Pliocene epoch (in West Siberia). An assessment of the difference in the corresponding digital elevation models showed that the subsidence of the crust took place in West Siberia (the median value of the difference between the digital elevation models was 230.7 m above sea level). The intensity of erosion processes increased in a southerly direction. We have shown that an increase in the number of autumn's months with high insolation correlates with the taiga biome 4 thousand years ago to wider territories than 8 thousand years ago. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Russian Foundation for Basic Research, RFBR: 19-04-00966The study is supported by RFBR, research project no. 19-04-00966

Studying steppe cherry cultivars in Chelyabinsk Province

The aim of the research was to study steppe cherry cultivars of various environmental origin in the context of their productivity, environmental plasticity and stability in the environments of Chelyabinsk Province. Evaluation of the studied set of cultivars helped to identify adaptable steppe cherries: ‘Izobilnaya’ (4.39 t/ha; KA = 1.54), ‘Shchedraya’ (4.42 t/ha; KA = 1.37), ‘Galimovka’ (3.83 t/ha; KA = 1,36), ‘Mayak’ (4.04 t/ha; KA = 1.30), ‘Ashinskaya’’ (t/ha 3.42; KA = 1.28) and ‘Mechta Zauralya’ (3.29 t/ha; KA = 1.07). The most interesting among them are intensive-type cultivars responding well to improved growing conditions, such as the steppe cherry cultivars developed at Sverdlovsk Horticultural Breeding Station: ‘Shchedraya’ (bi = 1.99), ‘Mechta Zauralya’ (1.85) and ‘Mayak’ (1.47). The Chelyabinsk cultivar ‘Galimovka’, submitted for state trials in 2018, falls under the category of environmentally plastic and stable cultivars (bi = 0.77; Si2 = 0.5), while cv. ‘Ashinskaya’ demonstrated during the tests a neutral genotype, as it poorly responded to changing environmental conditions (bi = 0.32; Si2 = 0.1). A new cultivar, ‘Vita’, with a fairly high yield (3.05 t/ha), developed at Sverdlovsk Horticultural Breeding Station, belongs to the environmentally plastic category (bi = 1.10), but its yield stability proved to be insufficient in the environments of the Southern Urals (Si2 = 2.2)
