Following the famous third physical Newton’s laws, “for every action there is an equal and opposite re-action”, a new approach for analysis and design of dynamic systems was introduced by [Zacher, 1997] and called «Antisystem-Approach» (ASA). According to this approach, a single isolated dynamic system does not exist alone. For every dynamic system, which transfers its inputs into outputs with an operator A in one direction, there is an equal system with the same operator A, which transfers other inputs into outputs in opposite direction. The antisystem does not have to be a physical system; it can also be a mathematical model of the original system. The most important feature of ASA is the exact balance between a system and its antisystem, which is called “energy” or “intensity”. In the group theory the system and antisystem are denote as antisymmetric. They build duality, which is common in many branches of sciences as mathematics, physics, biology etc. In the twenty years since first publication of the ASA there were developed different methods and applications, which enable to simplify the engineering, analysing the antisystem instead of original system. In the proposed paper is given the definition of ASA und are shown its features. It is described, how the ASA was used in electrical and chemical engineering, automation, informatics. Only several applications will be discussed, although ASA-solutions are common and could be used for wide range of dynamic systems.

The paper presents the new way of identification of complex nonlinear dynamic systems. The method has been explained with the use of a dynamic structure (degenerated one) with 1.5 degrees-of-freedom and some nonlinear restitution force. The applied method allows for the assessment of the dynamic behavior of material in a wide range of dynamic loads. The equation of energy balance when oscillations are set harmonic is applicable to the solution. It is possible when the loading force is adjustable. The method has been computer verified using a system with cubic spring characteristic.

Validation of computational models with multiple correlated functional responses requires the consideration of multivariate data correlation, uncertainty quantification and propagation, and objective robust metrics. This paper presents an enhanced Bayesian based model validation method together with probabilistic principal component analysis (PPCA) to address these critical issues. The PPCA is employed to handle multivariate correlation and to reduce the dimension of the multivariate functional responses. The Bayesian interval hypothesis testing is used to quantitatively assess the quality of a multivariate dynamic system. The differences between the test data and computer-aided engineering (CAE) results are extracted for dimension reduction through PPCA, and then Bayesian interval hypothesis testing is performed on the reduced difference data to assess the model validity. In addition, physics-based threshold is defined and transformed to the PPCA space for Bayesian interval hypothesis testing. This new approach resolves some critical drawbacks of the previous methods and adds some desirable properties of a model validation metric for dynamic systems, such as symmetry. Several sets of analytical examples and a dynamic system with multiple functional responses are used to demonstrate this new approach.

In reactive extrusion, the extruder is used as a solvent-free continuous chemical reactor able to process highly viscous materials. The chemical transformation of biopolymers by reactive extrusion appears as a very promising technology. Although punctual applications in this field have already been achieved on a laboratory or pilot scale, the amount of work to carry out is still considerable. A wide range of reactions and raw materials may be explored, and the reactions achieved on a laboratory scale have to be optimized and transposed to an industrial scale. Process modelling and simulation constitute useful tools for process understanding, development, optimization and scale-up. Although reactive extrusion modelling has interested many authors, it still remains a challenge because of the complex geometry and the strong coupling between operating parameters, flow conditions, material rheological behavior and reaction kinetics. A steady-state mathematical model for a biopolymer oxidation process by reactive extrusion is here proposed. The model is based on a hybrid approach combining chemical engineering methods and simplified continuum mechanics laws. The combination of these two approaches enables to simplify the calculations related to chemical reactions while ensuring a predictive character. The flexible structure of the model enabled its implementation within a global process simulator. A method to minimize the amount of experimental data required for model parameter adjustment is also presented. The model was validated by experiments conducted on a semi-pilot corotating twin-screw extruder. Even if it may be refined, the model proposed already constitutes a useful tool for later research work dealing with the development, modelling and simulation of chemical reactions in corotating twin-screw extruders.

The features of the state-space average method using Lagrange's theorems for calculation of processes in the boost converter with magnetically coupled elements (with autotransformer connection of inductors) in continuous currents mode are considered. A mathematical model of the converter based on relative variables has been developed, which makes it possible to calculate processes in a wide range of parameters taking into account the degree of magnetic coupling between inductive elements, including the definition of constant and pulsating components. It is shown that to obtain a complete system of the algebraic equations as a mathematical model of converters, which provides its single solution, it is advisable to additionally use the ratio according to energy balance in reactive elements in a steady state at the operation intervals of the converter during commutation period. The boundary dependences of boost converter parameters with magnetically coupled elements between the modes of discontinuous and continuous currents are calculated. The relative characteristics of the converter have been studied, which demonstrate the influence of imperfection of the magnetic coupling in the regulation zone of the relative duration value of switching interval.

The purpose of the article is to typologize terminological definitions of security, to find out the general, to identify the originality of their interpretations depending on the subject of legal regulation. The methodological basis of the study is the methods that made it possible to obtain valid conclusions, in particular, the method of comparison, through which it became possible to correlate different interpretations of the term "security"; method of hermeneutics, which allowed to elaborate texts of normative legal acts of Ukraine, method of typologization, which made it possible to create typologization groups of variants of understanding of the term "security". Scientific novelty. The article analyzes the understanding of the term "security" in various regulatory acts in force in Ukraine. Typological groups were understood to understand the term "security". Conclusions. The analysis of the legal material makes it possible to confirm that the issues of security are within the scope of both legislative regulation and various specialized by-laws. However, today there is no single conception on how to interpret security terminology. This is due both to the wide range of social relations that are the subject of legal regulation and to the relativity of the notion of security itself and the lack of coherence of views on its definition in legal acts and in the scientific literature. The multiplicity of definitions is explained by combinations of material and procedural understanding, static - dynamic, and conditioned by the peculiarities of a particular branch of legal regulation, limited ability to use methods of one or another branch, the inter-branch nature of some variations of security, etc. Separation, common and different in the definition of "security" can be used to further standardize, in fact, the regulatory legal understanding of security to more effectively implement the legal regulation of the security direction.

By the start of the 21st century many of the foundations of postwar culture had disappeared: Europe had been rebuilt and, as the EU, had become one of the world’s largest economies; the United States’ claim to global dominance was threatened; and the postwar social democratic consensus was being replaced by market-led neoliberalism. Most importantly of all, the Cold War was over, and the World Wide Web had been born. Music After The Fall considers contemporary musical composition against this changed backdrop, placing it in the context of globalization, digitization, and new media. Drawing on theories from the other arts, in particular art and architecture, it expands the definition of Western art music to include forms of composition, experimental music, sound art, and crossover work from across the spectrum, inside and beyond the concert hall. Each chapter considers a wide range of composers, performers, works, and institutions are considered critically to build up a broad and rich picture of the new music ecosystem, from North American string quartets to Lebanese improvisers, from South American electroacoustic studios to pianos in the Australian outback. A new approach to the study of contemporary music is developed that relies less on taxonomies of style and technique, and more on the comparison of different responses to common themes, among them permission, fluidity, excess, and loss.

Scholarship on Hindu traditions and practices proposes the practice of darshan as fundamental to Hindu traditions, particularly in temple worship, observing that devotees seek out images of deities primarily to see them and “receive” their darshan. These works typically gloss the definition of darshan with a sentence or two about seeing, exchanging glances, and/or receiving blessings. In this paper, I focus on the ways in which darshan is ideally imagined in conjunction with other bodily sensory practices through sources of authority, such as texts and senior devotees, to create a specific sensory experience and expectation in the transnational Gaudiya Vaishnava community. I then look to the lived realitiesof darshan in this tradition, specifically how devotees negotiate the structures created through sources of authority in their daily lives. Through this juxtaposition of idealized and lived darshan, I argue that we need a new approach towards theories of practice to take into account the complexities of darshanic moments in this and other religious practices.

Molecular self-assembly is ubiquitous in nature and has emerged as a new approach to produce new materials in chemistry, engineering, nanotechnology, polymer science and materials. Molecular self-assembly has been attracting increasing interest from the scientific community in recent years due to its importance in understanding biology and a variety of diseases at the molecular level. In the last few years, considerable advances have been made in the use ofpeptides as building blocks to produce biological materials for wide range of applications, including fabricating novel supra-molecular structures and scaffolding for tissue repair. The study ofbiological self-assembly systems represents a significant advancement in molecular engineering and is a rapidly growing scientific and engineering field that crosses the boundaries ofexisting disciplines. Many self-assembling systems are rangefrom bi- andtri-block copolymers to DNA structures as well as simple and complex proteins andpeptides. The ultimate goal is to harness molecular self-assembly such that design andcontrol ofbottom-up processes is achieved thereby enabling exploitation of structures developed at the meso- and macro-scopic scale for the purposes oflife and non-life science applications. Such aspirations can be achievedthrough understanding thefundamental principles behind the selforganisation and self-synthesis processes exhibited by biological systems.
