This paper adds to the analytical work done in a companion paper [3]. In that work, the power analysis for a Parallel Force/Velocity Actuator was carried out. In this work, we present a force balance analysis of the same actuator. In so doing, we consider a link driven by a Parallel Force/Velocity Actuator and study the balance of static and inertial forces in this system. The results from this study include design maps for the PFVA including the effects listed above. We also present five specific design examples of the PFVA using commercial off-the-shelf components to illustrate our force balance analysis.

In the textbook the basic concepts concerning the organization and technology of information work of the student-historian are considered. It includes four sections: the first determines the place of the course's problems in the process of historical knowledge; the second tracks the principal features of facts, sources and research, which can potentially be the sphere of historical research; the third introduces the reader to the principles, conceptual apparatus, laws, methods and judgments as means of knowledge.; the fourth introduces the experience of constructing the text of the study, which sums up a certain result of the work done and allows you to " translate the process of learning a new state of relative knowledge." Meets the requirements of the Federal state educational standards of higher education of the last generation. It is intended for undergraduate students studying the discipline "Information and analytical work". It can be useful to persons preparing for admission to the master's degree in the areas of training "History" and "International relations", as well as all those interested in working with documents and other media.

Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is well-established in many countries and increasingly considered to be the most effective and humane way to manage feral and stray cat populations. Nonetheless, it confronts major challenges everywhere it is practiced. Although Switzerland has an impressive TNR system carried out mainly by private, non-profit organizations and individual citizens, the management of feline overpopulation could be strengthened by improvements on a number of fronts, including legal and governance changes, education and modifications in mentality, and operational adjustments such as data management and analysis. TNR faces a number of common challenges worldwide, and given that it is still relatively young, lessons from one country can be valuable for another. Because little has been written about TNR in Switzerland, this article seeks to fill this gap by providing a preliminary analysis of the case through the prism of existing analytical work done on TNR in other countries.

Abstract Many articles and books have been written that discuss and study the techniques of lean thinking and methodologies. The applications of these methodologies have included such industries as manufacturing, health care, and information technology. Application to analytical laboratories has been rare or non-existent due to the inability to apply lean methodologies to a process with ‘unique’ analytical work flows as well as a lack of a direct connection to the manufacturing value stream. The following paper describes the work done in a semiconductor failure analysis laboratory to visualize work flow, design a forecasting model, and create a management system. The result of which has been sustained and improved quality, resource utilization, and delivery of actionable root cause failure analysis.

Horizontal wells have become a popular alternative for the development of hydrocarbon fields around the world because of their high flow efficiency caused by a larger contact area made with the reservoir. Most of the analytical work done in the past on horizontal productivity either assumed that the well is infinitely conductive or the flow is uniform along the entire well length. The infinite conductive assumption is good only when the pressure drop in the wellbore is very small compared to the drawdown in the reservoir otherwise the pressure drop in the wellbore should be taken into account. In this paper, an improved predictive model that takes into account the effect of all possible wellbore pressure losses on productivity index of long horizontal well was developed. Results show that the discrepancies in the predictions of the previous models and experimental results were not only due to effect of friction pressure losses as opined by Cho and Shah but may also be due to all prominent pressure losses such as kinetic change and fluid accumulation experienced by the flowing fluid in a conduit. The effect is most pronounced at the early production time where initial transience at the onset of flow is experienced.

The article is dedicated to the analysis of the concept of sharp power, its nature, basic characteristics and tools. Sharp power was introduced by American scientists Ch. Walker and D. Ludwig at the end of 2017 as an alternative version of soft power inherent only in totalitarian or authoritarian regimes. American researchers claim that sharp power has a set of tools such as data falsification, cyber-attacks, propaganda, manipulation of news streams, etc., and it’s aim is to undermine and discredit on Western-style democracies and democratic values in general. The author puts in doubt the statements of Western scholars that sharp power is inherent exclusively to authoritarian powers, to which they include Russia, China, Iran and several other countries. Moreover, the heuristic significance of the concept of sharp power is called into question. Also, based on the analytical work done, the author of the article offers her own version of the translation of the term sharp power into Russian language. In the conclusion, she offers a critical assessment of the concept, rather as an ideological phenomenon aimed at forming favorable attitudes to its ideologues in the international foreign policy discourse, than as a scientific concept, which is synonymous with soft power and smart power

The current study aims to analyse and substantiate the impact of use and importance of Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) to students writing in English as a second/foreign language (ESL/EFL). It is an explicatory study based on the main findings of researchers in the field and the practical involvement and observation of the researcher as an ESL/EFL teacher in writing classrooms. The scientific literature on the subject as well as the analytical work done on it have been critically examined for efficacy and proof. The study also investigates the usefulness of the various CALL-based materials and tools employed in the teaching process, and it examines how far they can help students in their classroom practices. The major outcomes of the study demonstrated that most teachers and students have found that CALL has helped them in a positive way, has motivated them to learn ESL/EFL writing, and has improved their knowledge and capability in writing English effortlessly. It has also been discovered that this method of teaching writing enriches their information and plays an important role in developing their academic skills. The current study, therefore, recommends that students should use computers in learning English writing, in particular, in order to increase the level of learning.

Abstract. Research on the neural mechanisms underlying Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS) has mostly concentrated on abnormalities in basal ganglia circuits. Recent alternative accounts, however, focused more on social and affective aspects. Individuals with GTS show peculiarities in their social and affective domain, including echophenomena, coprolalia, and nonobscene socially inappropriate behavior. This article reviews the experimental and theoretical work done on the social symptoms of GTS. We discuss the role of different social cognitive and affective functions and associated brain networks, namely, the social-decision-making system, theory-of-mind functions, and the so-called “mirror-neuron” system. Although GTS affects social interactions in many ways, and although the syndrome includes aberrant social behavior, the underlying cognitive, affective, and neural processes remain to be investigated.
