Due to a certain practice to target territories incorporating one or several subjects of the Russian Federation as objects of state regulation, this article clarifies the definition of a «macroregion» and uses specific examples to show particular characteristics of a macroregion as an entity of statistical observation and monitoring. We analyze statutory enactments which govern the organization of public statistical systems and monitoring investigations. Through the example of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation, we demonstrate the objectives and validate our recommendations on how to organize statistical surveillance and system monitoring of the current condition and development of macroregions.

The article shows the reindustrialization program as a means for strategic planning and organizing cooperation between innovation project participants. Here we prove that this strategic maneuver of the reindustrialization program and its innovations thrust will help to establish cooperation between scientific institutes, universities, and innovative companies and to create a demand for innovation since large businesses are not yet interested in innovative development. We define a skill set for main innovation actors in Novosibirsk Oblast, who are able to carry out innovation projects in order to develop the knowledge economy. In this article, we propose a reindustrialization project typology from the standpoint of the level and significance of issues to solve and their impact on region's economy; we determine flagship and infrastructure projects, projects of national, inter-regional and regional levels. We mark out some risks related to project implementation and methods to damp them in the course of the reindustrialization program through a combination of federal and regional support measures.

The article uses the following methods: A.Yu. Shevyakov's approach to the decomposition of the Gini coefficient on the normal and excessive inequality; the full deflation method for evaluation of the real income and real productivity; correlation and regression analysis, and construction of Cobb-Douglas type production functions. We proposed three levels to split the normal and excessive inequality: the poverty line, the social minimum boundary, and the social well-being boundary. There were obtained an inverse relationship between real per capita income and the excessive inequality Gini coefficient, as well as some sort of Kuznets curve for the relationship between real per capita income and the normal inequality Gini coefficient for Russian regions in 2013. The correlations of normal and excessive inequality with the general development indicators, as well as indicators of the population composition and dynamics, the structures of income and gross regional product, industrial structure of the economy, and the population's wealth were estimated. By incorporating the separated Gini coefficients in interregional five-factor Cobb-Douglas production function, we confirmed the positive correlation of normal inequality and negative correlation of excessive inequality with production in Russian regions. It was concluded that excessive inequality, on the one hand, is the result of low development, and, on the other hand, suppresses production incentives in regions. At the same time, the normal inequality promotes economic development, which is at first accompanied by growth in this type of inequality, and then by its decline.

The article discusses a methodological approach to analyzing the dynamics of the demographic situation with individual indicators from several territorial objects, which allow assessing each territory according to how tense its demographic situation is. To conduct this analysis, we have selected a few demographic threat factors showing the dynamics in all the regions of the Siberian Federal District against nationwide trends. An important part of the work is creating an integral index of demographic security (IIDS) based on the analyzed indicators, which may help to identify problem areas with low demographic security and relatively prosperous regions. Having compared the IIDS dynamics for all the subjects in the Siberian Federal District, we were the first to distinguish three groups of regions by their level of demographic security for the period of1990-2012. The article shows that almost all regions with a low level of demographic security are located along the state border. The IIDS can be used in demographic policy-making at both regional and federal levels in order to decide on managerial actions on demographic security.

The first mode is implemented partial oxidation carbonized residue in coal vodokislorodnogo fluid stream at a temperature of 923 K and a pressure ~30 MPa. Detected flow coupled processes of oxidation and carbon balance formation of inflammable gases (hydrogen content in the products increase by 26 % its relative amount in the original sample) due to the participation of the molecules H2O in redox reactions.

Despite significant progress in studying thermal decomposition of ammonium dinitramide (ADN), the kinetics of the process at the level of elementary stages has not been adequately studied. The aim of this review is to summarize various published data, which are of interest for studying and simulating the processes of thermal decomposition and combustion of ADN. Considerable attention is paid to physical and chemical properties of ADN, dinitramide and its anion N(NO2)2-, which play a key role in ADN decomposition. Various channels of decomposition of ADN, dinitramide, and N(NO2)2- are discussed. Results illustrating alternative points of view on the decomposition process are presented.

The problem of mixing of the products of detonation of composite explosives is of principal importance for the synthesis of ultrafine diamond from composite mixtures and also for chemistry of detonation processes as a whole. An analysis of mixing in the chemical reaction region due to molecular diffusion shows that this mechanism may be important only for grain sizes of several micrometers. If the grain sizes reach tens or hundreds of micrometers, only partial mixing on the grain boundaries is possible. Investigations of the hydrodynamic mechanism of mixing shows that it may occur owing to a nonuniform velocity field behind the detonation wave front in the mixture and to the development of turbulence and cumulative processes during pore implosion. In mixtures with grain sizes of the order of 30 m, these processes can lead to appreciable mixing during the time of »0.5\s and longer. Theoretical estimates are compared with the results of experiments performed at the Lavrentyev Institute of Hydrodynamics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences and at the Altai scientific and industrial enterprise (Biisk) for studying the synthesis of ultrafine diamond with the use of the isotope technique.

This paper describes the results of experiments on laser initiation of composites based on PETN and inclusions of submicron coal particles. The thresholds and kinetic characteristics of explosion of mixed compositions based on PETN and inclusions of submicron coal particles (B and DG) are studied under the influence of neodymium laser (1064nm, 12 ns), depending on the mass concentration of inclusions in the range of 0-5%. It is shown that the minimum threshold of explosive decomposition of PETN equal to 1.1 J/cm2 can be achieved if the concentration of both types of inclusions is 0.5%.

The formation of shaped-charge jets from hemispherical copper liners of degressive (decreasing from top to bottom) thickness is analyzed by numerical simulation of a two-dimensional axisymmetric problem of continuum mechanics. The basis for the comparison was taken to be the parameters of the jet formed from a modern standard shaped charge with a conical liner which provides penetration of a steel target to a depth equal to 10 charge diameters. In the comparative analysis, we used calculated mass-velocity distributions and the ultimate jet length-velocity distributions obtained on the their basis, from which the potential penetrability of jets was evaluated. It is shown that the use of hemispherical cumulative liners of degressive thickness makes it possible to form shaped-charge jets that are not inferior in head velocity and penetrability to the jets from conical liners.

Investigations of specific features of the microstructure of the region where a spall crack transforms to an adiabatic shear band are based on a spall model of strain localization, which implies that adiabatic shear bands are induced by interference of unloading waves, and the value of the negative stress in the expansion region of these waves does not exceed the dynamic strength of the material. It is shown that the transition region contains a tremendous number of dislocation ensembles, which is much greater than the number of dislocation ensembles generated by a shock wave. Detection of micrometer-sized fracture sites in the region of interference of unloading waves implies that small fracture sites are formed in a polycrystalline material on dislocations arising in the course of dynamic tension.
