Micro-scale flow simulation study of low-yield wells in tight gas reservoirs

Abstract The mechanism of gas-water flow in reservoirs has traditionally been characterized macroscopically based on flow experiments, but the microscopic mechanisms of gas-water flow in porous media cannot be precisely described experimentally. This paper categorizes low-yield gas wells into Types I, II, and III. With microscopic visualization principles, three different types of core thin-section photos were selected to construct a pore structure model, allowing for micro-scale flow simulation to examine micro-scale percolation patterns in various types of low-yield gas well reservoirs. The results show that there is a shorter displacement time in Type I reservoirs compared to Type II and III reservoirs which exhibit more pronounced fingering phenomena.

Manifestation of Ethical Teachings in Illustrations of Lithographic Manuscript Called ‘Expressing the Story of His Highness Solomon’

Holy Qur'an that is replete with historical stories pertaining to the prophets and their nations and aims at transferring revelation teachings and human guidance drew the attentions of the experts from the early Islamic centuries. Historians engaged in narrating the stories of the prophets’ lives in their writings. However, such writings lacked pictorial expression. Thus, in order for the literary-religious concepts of these writings to be better revealed, the miniaturists from the later centuries were assigned to decorate them with images. One of these is the lithographical manuscript called ‘expressing the story of His Highness Solomon’.The present study was based on the credible library-electronic resources and pictorial data collection through a field of research and sought finding an answer to the question as to what visualization principles and regulations can be applied in the aforesaid manuscript so that the ethical teachings latent in its story can be better expressed.

Effective Visualization of Data Structures in Graph Databases

To efficiently store data where the relationships between individual objects are essential, the use of a graph database model is recommended. After storing the data, it is necessary to further analyze it using statistical methods or visualize it within the context of exploratory data analysis. Such visualization is crucial for understanding the structure and content of the database. However, commonly used visualization tools often fall short in terms of interactivity and effectiveness. The main objective of the presented work is the design and implementation of a novel model for the visualization of data structures stored in graph databases with the use of two natural graphical models—the standard topological layout of the database and the so-called clustered layout of a graph database. The presented graphical models are focused on interactive visualization, mainly scaling of visualization and development of database objects, and principles of effective visualization. Implementation of the proposed approach was evaluated via case studies on three model graph databases of various sizes—Messaging database (16 objects, 16 relationships), Library database (16 objects, 32 relationships) and Movie database (171 objects, 253 relationships). Compared to the standard Neo4j tool for the visual representation of property graphs in graph databases, the proposed model presents improvement in terms of the number of visualization models, effectivity of the visualization, and development of objects in the visualized database.

Mind Maps in the Modern Educational Process: Advantages, Functions, Visualization Principles and Design Tools

“Make Known”: Historical Memory, Politics of Memory and Historical Monuments of the Russian Empire

Historical memory is a necessary element of the nation-building process. It has various forms of realization, including visual ones. The article discusses one of the forms of visualization of historical memory through specific historical places – officially confirmed historical monuments. The author proves the thesis that the list of national historical monuments depended on the history politics implemented by the authorities and considers the evolution of this politics from 1826 (the first decree of Emperor Nicholas I on compiling in Russia a list of historical monuments, this was done by the Ministry of the Interior) until 1917. Initially, the authorities sought to recreate the picture of the historical past by fixing the surviving monuments. However historical politics was changing in the late 19th – early 20th centuries. The purpose of the empire was to present Russian history as the apotheosis of the Romanov dynasty, especially its last representatives (Alexander II, Alexander III, Nicholas II). Therefore, according to their description of 1901–1903, most historical monuments were modern monuments to the last emperors and members of the imperial family. They were not historical monuments in the true sense of the term. It was an ideological, a propaganda campaign. The author draws attention to its inefficiency; these monuments could not improve the image of the Romanovs in the eyes of society. The author draws attention to the similarity of the principles of visualization of history through historical monuments in the Russian Empire and the USSR. In both cases, an ideological basis shaped the history politics, which was less about preserving historical memory and more about ideology and channeling specific ideas through selected monuments. Moreover, in both cases, it was a cause of inefficiency of history politics.

Insights on poster preparation practices in life sciences.

Posters are intended to spark scientific dialogue and are omnipresent at biological conferences. Guides and how-to articles help life scientists in preparing informative visualizations in poster format. However, posters shown at conferences are at present often overloaded with data and text and lack visual structure. Here, I surveyed life scientists themselves to understand how they are currently preparing posters and which parts they struggle with. Biologist spend on average two entire days preparing one poster, with half of the time devoted to visual design aspects. Most receive no design or software training and also receive little to no feedback when preparing their visualizations. In conclusion, training in visualization principles and tools for poster preparation would likely improve the quality of conference posters. This would also benefit other common visuals such as figures and slides, and improve the science communication of researchers overall.

Evaluation of affinity matured Affibody molecules for imaging of the immune checkpoint protein B7-H3

B7-H3 (CD276), an immune checkpoint protein, is a promising molecular target for immune therapy of malignant tumours. Sufficient B7-H3 expression level is a precondition for successful therapy. Radionuclide molecular imaging is a powerful technique for visualization of expression levels of molecular targets in vivo. Use of small radiolabelled targeting proteins would enable high-contrast radionuclide imaging of molecular targets if adequate binding affinity and specificity of an imaging probe could be provided. Affibody molecules, small engineered affinity proteins based on a non-immunoglobulin scaffold, have demonstrated an appreciable potential in radionuclide imaging. Proof-of principle of radionuclide visualization of expression levels of B7-H3 in vivo was demonstrated using the [99mTc]Tc-AC12-GGGC Affibody molecule. We performed an affinity maturation of AC12, enabling selection of clones with higher affinity. Three most promising clones were expressed with a –GGGC (triglycine-cysteine) chelating sequence at the C-terminus and labelled with technetium-99m (99mTc). 99mTc-labelled conjugates bound to B7-H3-expressing cells specifically in vitro and in vivo. Biodistribution in mice bearing B7-H3-expressing SKOV-3 xenografts demonstrated improved imaging properties of the new conjugates compared with the parental variant [99mTc]Tc-AC12-GGGC. [99mTc]Tc-SYNT-179 provided the strongest improvement of tumour-to-organ ratios. Thus, affinity maturation of B7-H3 Affibody molecules could improve biodistribution and targeting properties for imaging of B7-H3-expressing tumours.

Support as a training tool: philosophical and methodological aspects

Introduction. The work of the school in the context of distance learning is complicated by the virtualization of subject-introductory activities, the decrease in the effect of the teacher's guiding, orienting influences of the educator, and the increased dependence of learning outcomes on self-organization and self-control.Purpose setting. Based on the experience of developing visual logical-semantic models and using them as visual didactic regulators, the task was to determine the regulatory framework for the actions of these didactic tools.Methodology and methods of the study. The study applied: the method of "reverse engineering" – the construction of a theoretical description of the real result; visualization method of logical-semantic modeling of knowledge; the fundamental principle of visualization and the principle of improving educational cognitive activity with the help of supports and regulators.Results. The function of supports and regulators to aid the regulatory component of educational cognitive activity is substantiated. Provisions are formulated that link the law, the theoretical principle and the practical function of visualization with the empirical law of educational cognitive activity, which implies the dominance of subject-introductory actions in the formation of an image-representation of the object or process being studied.Conclusions. A theoretical and methodological substantiation of the regulative foundations of actions and the regulative component of educational cognitive activity is proposed. The use of supports and regulators of a logical-semantic type in classroom-distance learning is shown.

MTC: Visualization method of assessing physical movements with dribbling performance of basketball based in 3D Space

We present a basketball training visualization method – Motion Time Cylinder (MTC) designed to help novice players learn basketball techniques more easily. The basketball player can select their preferred movement to learn and visualize the body and joint movements in detail. Extensive visualization as a graphical assistant help supports the player in understanding 3D movements from the visual patterns. At the same time, players can understand the coordination and spatial relationship when playing the movement. The visualization principle is based on the mapping of body movement into the graphic of clock-based division locations. The movements can then be represented by the translation pattern between the frontal and transverse planes of cylinder spaces. As a result, the movement can be visualized by rendering the translation pattern base on the clock from a specific perspective, for example, an orthogonal view. This paper explains the visualization principles of the mapping and pattern as well as the graphical representation based on user perception

MOBILE MULTIMEDIA COMPLEX ONIКO USING PRINCIPLES AT THE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN ANATOMY POLTAVA STATE MEDICAL UNIVERSITY

Human anatomy is learnt within the cycle of disciplines for general training of professionals in the field of health care. Learning human anatomy is provided through lectures and practical classes, which are supported by various technical teaching aids. All these tools and softwares are designed to foster clinical thinking and clinical. The methodological functions of these teaching aids are strongly related to the specifics of teaching human anatomy at medical schools or universities and to the real-life conditions simulate through the educational process.
 Interactive forms of teaching and learning are designed to facilitate solving the tasks outlined by the practice-oriented approach in the modern education. The guiding principle in the process of studying human anatomy is the principle of visualization. At present there are a large number of computer programs and applications for electronic devices allowing students to deepen their knowledge about the structure of the human body. One of such advanced imaging systems is a 3D atlas of human anatomy, 3D Organon VR Anatomy, an interactive anatomical atlas demonstrating all systems of the human body. This technology is active applied in the training course at the Department of Human Anatomy of the Poltava State Medical University. Among the advantages of the interactive table is the ability to use it when conducting classes in remote mode (online) that was especially relevant during the COVID-19 pandemic and in martial law in Ukraine. An anatomical table shows a human body model thus allowing students to visualize and study all structures, from bones to organs, change their position in 3D format at different magnification, and arrange them in a transverse position (to assess the anatomical shape and the relative location of organs inside the human body)..
 The multimedia complex "Oniko" is widely applied for learning and teaching normal and topographic anatomy. The complex is also suitable for making familiar with several medical branches, including surgery, dentistry, ophthalmology, forensic medical examination, and others. The complex promotes interdepartmental integration of the educational process at the university. Working with highly realistic models gives students valuable experience.
 The integrated use of new computer technologies, imaging systems, and traditional methods will enables provided more in-depth study of anatomy and significantly increase educational proficiency of future doctors.
 The interactive anatomical systems are the most technologically advanced anatomical imaging system in medical education designed to educate the medical community that improve the effectiveness of teaching medical disciplines and promote the image of the institution in the educational and medical environment.

Mental Modeling of Entrepreneurial Opportunity Based on the Principle of Information Visualization

What arouses entrepreneurial action? The role of entrepreneurial opportunities in stimulating entrepreneurial action under uncertainty is a subject of intense scholarly debate. This article engages in a crucial theoretical exploration to extend the boundaries of opportunity by reframing it as an artifact. Reframing the opportunity as an artifact (crystallized information) shifts the dialogue and perspectives. Through information visualization and mental modeling approaches, information is aggregated, integrated, and configured to generate an experience that triggers actions. The interaction, transformation, and representation of information are intended to reduce uncertainty and guide entrepreneurial enactment. This article presents an integrated information processing model showing how information excites, instigates, and motivates enactment. This contextualization aims to develop a descriptively accurate and prescriptively useful concept of opportunity as an artifact. Theoretically, analytically, and conceptually, the focus on information as the fundamental unit of analysis shifts the discussion by featuring inward to move the scholarly debate on opportunity forward. This re-pivoting can avoid the calls for abandonment and debunking of the opportunity construct.

ПЕДАГОГИЧЕСКОЕ МОДЕЛИРОВАНИЕ И ОЦЕНКА РЕЗУЛЬТАТИВНОСТИ ФОРМИРОВАНИЯ СОЦИАЛЬНО-ПРАВОВОЙ ПОЗИЦИИ БУДУЩЕГО ГОСУДАРСТВЕННОГО СЛУЖАЩЕГО

Modeling the process of forming the socio-legal position of a future civil servant allows us to present the process taking into account its essential characteristics and possible risks. The logic of formation is represented by a process model consisting of target, methodological, socio-legal, content-technological and performance-diagnostic blocks. The target block of the process model highlights the leading direction of activity: to form the socio-legal position of the future civil servant. The methodological basis is the activity approach and its complementary principles of socio-legal orientation, resourcefulness, team design and visualization. In the socio-legal block, based on the norms of law and the content of the Federal State Educational Standard in the direction of training 38.03.04 State and Municipal Administration, the value, knowledge and behavioral dominants of the socio-legal position of the future civil servant are highlighted. The content and technology block represents the interaction of the subjects of the “teacher — future civil servant — regional employer” process at the stages of the work of the “Premier Project” Factory organized at the university. The effective diagnostic unit determines the correspondence of the components (value, knowledge, behavioral), criteria (axiological, epistemological, praxiological) and indicators (awareness, validity, stability) to the formation of the socio-legal position of the future civil servant. The result of the process model is the formed socio-legal position of the future civil servant. The evaluation of the effectiveness of the modeled process was carried out when the model was introduced into the educational practice of the university. The conducted diagnostics of the formation of the socio-legal position of the future civil servant revealed in the ascertaining experiment the predominance of low and medium levels of formation of the socio-legal position of the future civil servant in the educational community; in the forming experiment, an increase in the proportion of students who have a high level of formation of this quality.

The nature and features of the implementation of gamification as a systematic and specific game practice into the educational sphere

Based on the conducted content analysis of the definition of gamification in educational and non-educational contexts the author defines gamification. The main components of gamification are highlighted and described; they are game mechanics; game dynamics; game aesthetics, social interaction, and game elements. The principles of the implementation of gamification into the educational, organizational and management processes of an educational institution are articulated: the principle of instant feedback; the principle of convergence with interactive technologies; the principle of the fun component importance; the principle of versatility of interactive information users environment; the principle of versatility of the form; the principle of interaction; the principle of the social component importance; the principle of visualization; the principle of the narrative component importance; the principle of content segmentation and gradual complexity of tasks. The features of gamification implementation into the educational sphere are also highlighted, which are important to take into account both in the educational and management aspects. Eventually, the common substantive characteristics of gamification and interactive technologies which are used within the educational sphere have been identified; they are: changing the perception of evaluation procedures used in the learning process; simultaneous consideration of the needs of different education subjects; assistance in developing the reflective and self-evaluative skills of students; boosting the level of motivation of education subjects within the conducting either educational or professional activity, etc.

Eroticism of postmodern libertinage on the example of work of the contemporary female artists Alice Neel, Hannah Wilke, Judy Chicago

The subject of the article is the erotic genre in work of the American female artists Alice Neel, Hannah Wilke, Judy Chicago. The analysis of their visual imagery from feminist discource perspective is carried out. Methodological point of view represented in the article permits to reveal generalizing constants of analysis of contemporary visual erotica through the prism of main author concepts: “visual libertinage”, “deconstruction of body”, “emotive corporality”. The principle of postmodernist visual libertinage as a methodological technique to formulate a “female” look at corporality in their works is generalized. The influences of their artistic imagery on forming of the bases of three waves of the American feminist movement are considered: accordingly, A. Neel influences the principles of woman body visualization of the first wave, Hanna Wilke — the second, and Judy Chicago — the third one. The principles of self-presentation of the body through actionism and self-expression through nudity characteristic of their work are revealed. We prove that by these methods of work with corporality the artists violated the convention of social norm and puritan morality in relation to naked body, forming aesthetic of visual embodiment of the female body. The problem of comparison of erotic genre in contemporary American art with corresponding works of the Ukrainian artists is also claimed. The feminist principles to present body by the female artists became basic for forming the “Ukrainian body”: this experience had some followers in the 90’s, but as a meaningful and consistent program begins to be implemented in the Ukrainian art context in 2000–2010.

POETICS OF NARRATIVE STRUCTURES IN THE TEXTS OF VASYL STEFANYK

The article is devoted to the topic of poetics in Vasyl Stefanyk's short stories.
 The purpose of the article is to analyze the poetics of narrative structures of Vasyl Stefanyk's works on the example of motive-thematic complex of death, to consider also features of descriptive structures of the writer, in particular combination and interaction of descriptive and narrative manners.
 This goal was possible to be achieved by using the research methods, namely: analysis and synthesis, comparison, specification, and generalization.
 The authors explore the issues of poetics of narrative structures on the basis of the texts of short stories "Maple Leaves", "Funeral", "Lan", "May" and others.
 Comparisons of descriptive and narrative elements in Vasyl Stefanyk's short stories are made mainly on the basis of a thorough study of the problems of Gerard Genet's poetics "Figures".
 The authors focused on the analysis of narrative structures, the peculiarities of the combination and interaction of descriptive and narrative manners of the writer, the functions of the strategy of visualization and descriptiveness in the narrative texts of Vasyl Stefanyk.
 This is the practical value and novelty of the presented study.
 The authors found that the principle of visualization allows adding a moment of descriptiveness to the narrative text. Considering the distinction and interaction of visualization and descriptiveness in the texts of Vasyl Stefanyk, the authors trace the moments of transition (or intersection/overlap) of passages in a descriptive and narrative manner of narrative. 
 In addition, the authors of the article analyzed the relationship of time and space dimensions in texts to narrative and descriptive structures.
 Analysis of Vasyl Stefanyk's short stories through the prism of the interaction of ekphrasis and diegesis opens up completely new perspectives on the interpretation of the text. The high frequency of descriptive structures in Vasyl Stefanyk's texts may be one of the signs of genre heterogeneity in the writer's works.
