The possibility of use of approximate models for calculation of selectivity of consecutive reactions is critically analysed. Simple empirical criteria are proposed which enable safer application of approximate analytical reactions. A more universal modification has been formulated by use of which the difference of selectivity calculated by the exact numerical method and by the approximate analytical method is at maximum 12%.

The Narration of Aisyah (May Allah be pleased with her), is the main focus of the controversy among Bangladeshi scholars on the issue of women's prayer in the mosque. The reason for the dispute is that a group of them issued the ruling based on the phenomenon of the text, and the others explained the ruling of Hadith according to the common situation in the society. If the circumstances change, the ruling will change along with it, because the originality of the issue is permissible, that is proven from other texts. This research adopts an inductive method to survey the Prophetic hadiths that talk about the prayer of women in the Mosque in terms of permissibility and prohibition and analytical method to analyze the difference in opinion of Bangladeshi scholars related to this issue. The research finds that the ruling of Shari’ah is a process that is continuous and permanent. But in necessity and emergency, it has the notion of flexibility and explanation. In the issue of women’s presence in the mosque, they should be allowed if they abide by the suggestions of Prophet (s) and should not if they don’t. So, Prohibition is not from the prophet (s), but it is from their obedience to the ruling.

Analysis and calculation have been conducted of the process of low-pressure reverse osmosis in the membrane apparatus of the system for recycling hygiene water for the space station. The paper describes the physics of the reverse osmosis treatment and determines the motive force of the process, which is the difference of effective pressures (operating pressure minus osmotic pressure) in the solution near the surface of the membrane and in the purified water. It is demonstrated that the membrane scrubbing action is accompanied by diffusion outflow of the cleaning agent components away from the membrane. The mass transfer coefficient and the difference of concentrations (and, accordingly, the difference of osmotic pressures) in the boundary layer of the pressure channel can be determined using an extended analogy between mass transfer and heat transfer. A procedure has been proposed and proven in an experiment for calculating the throughput of a reverse osmosis apparatus purifying the hygiene water obtained through the use of a cleaning agent used in sanitation and housekeeping procedures on Earth. Key words: life support system, hygiene water, water processing, low-pressure reverse osmosis, space station.

Dew is a common but important phenomenon. Though water is previously considered to be a threat to earthen heritage sites, artificial dew is showing potential in relic preservation. A model of dew prediction on earthen sites will be essential for developing preventive protection methods, but studies of dew formation processes on relics are limited. In this study, a two parameter model is proposed. It makes approximations according to the features of earthen heritage sites, assuming that a thin and steady air layer exists close to the air–solid interface. This semi-theoretical model was based on calculations of the mass transfer process in the air layer, and was validated by simulations of laboratory experiments (R > 0.9) as well as field experiments. Additionally, a numerical simulation, performed by the commercial software COMSOL, confirmed that the difference between fitting parameter δ and the thickness of assumed mass transfer field was not significant. This model will be helpful in developing automatic environmental control systems for stabilizing water and soluble salts, thus enhancing preventive protection of earthen heritage sites.

In the theory of nonlinear oscillations, in order to identify the resonance curve we usually try to eliminate the diphase Ѳ in the equations of stationary oscillations. We obtain thus a certain frequency-amplitude relationship. In simple cases when the mentioned equations contain only and linearly the first harmonics (sin Ѳ, cos Ѳ) the elimination of Ѳ is elementary, by using the trigono-metrical identity sin2 Ѳ+ cos2 Ѳ = 1. In general, high harmonics (sin2 Ѳ, cos2 Ѳ, etc.) are present. Consequently the expressions of sin Ѳ, cos Ѳ are cumbersome or do not exist and the analytical elimination of Ѳ is quite inconvenient or impossible. For this reason, to identify the resonance curve of complicated systems, we use the numerical method. Below, intending to develop the analytical method, we shall propose a procedure enabling us to transform the "original" complicated equations of stationary oscillations into the so-called associated ones, only and linearly containing sin Ѳ, cos Ѳ. The equivalence of the original and associated equations will be treated and the associated resonance 'curve-that is determined by the associated equations-will be analyzed The discussion will be restricted to a simple practical case in which, beside sin Ѳ and cos Ѳ, only sin2 Ѳ and cos2 Ѳ are present. Nevertheless, the method proposed and the results obtained can be generalized.

In this paper, we study the existence and uniqueness of weak solution for the system of finite difference schemes for coupled sine-Gordon equations. A novel first order of accuracy unconditionally stable difference scheme is considered. The variational method also known as the energy method is applied to prove unique weak solvability.We also present a new unified numerical method for the approximate solution of this problem by combining the difference scheme and the fixed point iteration. A test problem is considered, and results of numerical experiments are presented with error analysis to verify the accuracy of the proposed numerical method.
