INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE AND TRENDS OF INNOVATIVE DEVELOPMENT OF ARCTIC TERRITORIES by M. Dudin, N. Ivashchenko

“…Therefore, making the choice between the hard pressure of national interests and the interests of harmonization of the Arctic states, Russia must be based on international cooperationand mutual consideration of interests in the development of its Arctic strategy; Considering the cooperation of the countries of the Arctic Council and their cooperation in the framework of a global economic forum G8, there are prerequisites for the decision of the Arctic confl ict through negotiation and compromise. In this context it is very important to develop the legal and regulatory institutional frameworks on Arctic issues.The scientific novelty of this study lies in the fact that, based on best international practices and trends in the fi eld of exploration and development of Arctic territories, recommend measures regarding the development and implementation of the Russian Arctic policy, namely: Increase the efficiency of technological equipment and exploration and production of natural resources in the Arctic; The achievement of a reliable logistical infrastructure to secure future energy supplies; Transformation of the operational risks of development and extraction of natural resources in the Arctic financial risks through the mechanisms of public-private partnerships and venture fi nancing; Harmonization of domestic legislation in thesphere of development of Arctic territories with international; Liberalization of the production and sale of energy resources, lobbying national Arctic interests at the global level through the various national structures and institutions.…”

Experimental study on tensile performance of horizontal joint bolted connections in fully assembled modular construction reinforced concrete by RAN Mingming, KOU Guangyun, XIONG Feng, ZHANG Dongdong, LI Wei

“…According to the calculation theory for punching shear failure bearing capacity, the reduced peak load-bearing capacity of Mode III compared to Mode II was attributed to the reduction in the effective height of the punching shear cone caused by the crushing zone, consequently resulting in decreased anti-punching shear capacity. In Mode IV, when the load was increased to 134.2 kN, abrupt fracture failure of the concrete at the cross-section above the operating hand-hole of the specimen was observed, with limited cracking. …”
