INFORMATION MODELING AND ANALYSIS OF A CLASS OF INCOMPLETE FINANCIAL MARKETS

Meladze G.A.

Georgian Technical University

 

The methods of robust statistics are used for the purpose of controlling the market risk of contigent claims. The semimartingale model of the financial market is considered, the notion of "incomplete information" is formalized, and the minimax problem of hedging with respect to the root-mean-square function of the risk is posed. Then this problem is approximated by another optimization problem, which is more convenient for an investigation. By solving the latter problem, the optimum robust hedging strategy is worked out.

Keywords: incomplete financial market, analysis, information modeling.

Chachkhiani Z.B.

Georgian Technical University

 

Magnetic properties of mixed sulphides with the IVa and Va group elements of the periodic system of the AU2S5-, AU3S6- and BUS3 -type, where A = Zr, Ti, Hf; B = V, Nb, Ta, were studied in magnetic fields ≈108 A/m over the range of 4.2K - 300 K. Both crystalline structure and lattice cell parameters for all the synthesized compounds were ascertained. It was found that  only combinations with titanium are antiferromagnets with ΘN = 23 … 25 K, whereas the others are ferromagnets with high magnetocrystalline anisotropy. Ferromagnetic Curie temperature varies within the range from 63 K for ZrU2S5 to 220 K for VUS3. A large thermal hysteresis of magnetization which is connected with the irreversible domain-wall displacement was identified. Magnetic behaviour near the Curie temperature is described on the basis of the thermodynamic theory of magnetic transformation.

OXYGEN AT THE CYLINDRICAL SURFACE OF GAS PHASE POLYCRYSTALLINE TUNGSTEN

Zykov B.M. and Nardaia Yu.I.

Sukhumi Physical-Engineering Institute

 

There has been studied the interaction of oxygen with the cylindrical surface of a gas phase polycrystalline tungsten coating on the Nb – 1% Zr alloy, which is used as a material for the collector of thermoemission converters (TEC) of heat energy into electric power. The methods of investigation were low-energy threshold spectroscopy and contact-potential difference in vacuum (2×10-8 Pa minimum). Low susceptibility of the W coating on the Nb – 1% Zr alloy to the changes in its oxidation conditions and, possibly, to Pres. in whole in the interelectrode gap of the TEC over the range of 600-1300°C must contribute to the stability of output characteristics of the TEC. Besides, the TEC collector made of this material must be unsusceptible to the mass transfer from the W emitter due to the Nb diffusion to the surface and the absence of oxygen solubility in the volume lattice, i.e. the collector obtained after cleaning of the corresponding surface will be continuously self-restoring.

Keywords: gas phase polycrystalline tungsten, cylindrical surface, thermoemission converter, collector.

There has been studied the interaction of oxygen with the heated cylindrical surface of a gas phase polycrystalline tungsten coating on the Ni - 1% Zr alloy, which is used as a material for the collector of thermoemission converters (TEC) of heat energy into electric power. Under the working vacuum conditions of TEC, the oxygen from residual gases of the interelectrode gap (IEG) is sufficient for formation of suboxide Nb2W2O at the collector even without special additional bleeding-in, which is recommended only at the stage of cleaning the surface of C. Though, stable characteristics of the TEC will not be high untill on the collector surface there is present C, the most harmful and thermally stable (up to 1100°C) component of CO. To reduce the content of C, they have to improve the process sanitary requirements or to change to the monocrystal coating, which contains significantly less volume defects where C is accumulated.

Nemsadze Sh.A.

Georgian Technical University

 

The skin effect and its forms such as proximity and ring effects do not allow using the known methods for calculation of inductance and resistance of the electric circuit element. The equivalent inductance and resistance of a multiturn single-layer cylindrical inductor have been determined by the energetical method. For this purpose, the energy of the magnetic field of the multiturn single layer inductor was defined. It is shown that, at the frequency range of 5-100kHz used in the magnetic pulse installations, the developed method of determi­nation of the inductor parameters gives satisfactory results.

BUBBLE FORMATION IN THE SPARGING MODE OF OPERATION

Ebanoidze J.D.

Kutaisi Technical University

 

In the sparging mode of operation, hydrodynamics of the valve contact device (VCD) reduces to the description of the process of  formation and rise of bubbles. Here the bubble formation is considered as a dynamic process, which allows using the pressure instead of the rate (volume flow) of the gas passing through the device that itself is the quantity to be determined. Basing on the quasistatistical model of the gas bubble blowed out into a liquid medium, stable and unstable forms of equilibrium were established. The second-order differential equation describing the dynamics of the bubble growth was derived. There are presented some results of the numerical solution to the corresponding Cauchy problem that give an idea of the effect of the pressure differential on the bubble dynamics. The suggested model of bubble formation can be used in investigations of the sparging mode of operation of the contact device of mass-transfer apparatuses.

Museliani T.G.

Georgian Technical University

 

It is demonstrated that the dual origin of electromagnetic inertia of mutual induction is a physical basis of transmission of the energy and coded information via an electromagnetic field. The negative inertia impedes and the positive inertia favours the changes in the electromagnetic quantity of motion, which it has been created by. The classification of types of the electromagnetic induction by the character of its electromagnetic inertia is suggested: 1. induction with negative inertia - electrodynamic induction, self-induction and mutual induction at a positive magnetic connection; 2. induction with positive inertia - mutual induction at a negative magnetic connection.

Comparative heat-resistance tests of nonalloyed and low-alloyed chromium samples with  deposited and implanted lanthanum and the ones covered with lanthanum hexaboride have been conducted. It was established that increasing concentrations of lanthanum or its oxide in superficial matrix layers lead to a considerable improvement in heat resistance both of nonalloyed and low-alloyed chromium. Independently of the realized ways of this act, the positive effect results from the formation of lanthanum chromites distributed at grain boundaries of the growing oxide film during high temperature oxidation.

The interaction between antipyridine, diantipyryl methane, methyldiantipyryl methane, and propyldiantipyryl methane and phosphomolybdic acid was studied. Diantipyryl methane (DAM) proved to be the best reagent. In 0.4 acetic acid solution, DAM formed a suspension with phosphomolybdic acid. The maximum density of the suspension was reached at 500-fold excess of ammonium molybdate and 40-fold excess of DAM in 15 min after mixing of the solutions. The suspension was stable for 1 hour. The linear dependence of the phosphor concentration on the optical density was observed in the range of 1-10 μg / 25 ml phosphor. A turbidimetric method for determination of microquantities of phosphor was developed. The sensitivity of the method is 0.04 μg/ml  P. The method allows determining the phosphor quantity immediately in the objects containing Fe3+, Cu2+, Mn2+, Ni2+, Co2+, Al3+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Mg2+, Ca2+ etc.

DRUG DELIVERY TODAY

Burjanadze N.G.

Institute of Physical Chemistry

University of Münster, Germany

 

Much research has been ongoing in the quest to find an ideal system for drug delivery within the human body. Drug delivery is a very important aspect of medical treatment. The effectiveness of many drugs is directly related to the way in which they are administered. Unfortunately, this can make it very difficult to select the proper drug delivery system. Some therapies require that the drug be repeatedly administered to the patient over a long period of time, or in specific amounts at a time in order to maximize drug effectiveness. In many cases, patients often forget, are unwilling, or are unable to take their medication. Furthermore, some drugs are too potent for systemic drug delivery and can cause more harm than good. Therefore, it is of a great advantage to find a drug delivery device that is capable of controlled, pulsatile or continuous release of a wide variety of drugs and other therapeutics that can be safely implanted inside the body. Biocompatability, material reliability, a method of drug release, and processibility are only a few of the many significant factors that need to be considered in creating a successful and effective drug delivery system of this type.

Keywords: drug delivery, system, human body.

DO DUALITIES "WAVES-PARTICLES" AND "ENERGY-INFORMATION" FOLLOW THE CYCLIC REGULARITY OF FORMATION OF STRUCTURAL LEVELS OF MATTER?

Khvedelidze M.A.

Institute of Cybernetics

International Informatization Academy

 

The analysis of well-known data in the field of physics of the microworld has shown that initial zero oscillations of physical vacuum can control the cyclicity of formation of the duality and uniqueness in the formation evolution of waves-particles. Similarly, the subsequent global cyclic regularity in the evolution of formation of the known structural levels of matter, which was described by the author in earlier works, controls the energy-information duality and uniqueness. All the abovementioned allows us to introduce additional notions: "cyclicity" and "uniqueness", i.e. 1) the cyclicity of the duality of waves-particles and their uniqueness; 2) the cyclicity of the duality of energy-information and their uniqueness. Besides, the globality of the cyclic regularity in the hierarchy of the known regularities of the matter world can be acknowledged.

Keywords: matter, duality, uniqueness, waves-particles, energy-information, cyclic regularity.

THE MECHANISM OF THE STAGE FORMATION OF PLANETS

Davarashvili I.O. and Lomidze I.R.

Iv. Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University

 

The scenario of the stage formation of a planetary system from the gas-and-dust cloud around the protostar is offered, which also takes into account the influence of the previously formed planets on those ones which have formed later. Originally, the planet of the greatest weight is formed at such a distance from the center of the cloud where is the maximum concentration of the fractions remained after the formation of the protostar. In the scope of this scenario, the asymmetry in the distribution of masses and impulsive moments between the internal and external fractions of the planetary system being formed is explained naturally.

Keywords: planetary system, gas-and-dust cloud, planet  formation, pulse moment, planet mass, asymmetry.

ON THE FIRST METEORITES FOUND IN GEORGIA AND THEIR ISOTOPIC COMPOSITION

Kaviladze M.Sh. and Gubadze N.V.

Iv. Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University

 

The investigations on the first meteorites found in Georgia have been carried out. That meteorites belong to the class of rare ones as there are represented the grains of refractory minerals of a still unknown genesis. The investigation of several samples apparently showed that in those grains the isotope ratios of elements Ti, Ca, O etc. are abnormally broken in comparison with the average values for the elements of the solar system. Therefore, most specialists consider that they were not formed in the solar system and are much older.
