Central Asian Law Editor: Rustamjon Urinboyev Central Asian Law Editor: Rustamjon Urinboyev Central Asian Law Central Asian Law: Legal Cultures, Tis research report is a compilation of essays written by guest researchers from Central Asia who spent four to twelve months at the Department of Sociology Governance and Business of Law, Lund University, and conducted research on various topics pertaining to legal cultures, governance and business environments in Central Asia. Tese guest research stays (secondments) took place in the framework of the EU-funded Environment in Central Asia project “Central Asian Law: Legal Cultures and Business Environments in Central Asia” (project number 870647 H2020 MSCA-RISE 2019-2023), which runs from 01/03/2020 through 28/02/2024. Te project is coordinated by Lund University and the project consortium includes European universities (University A Collection of Papers from Central Asian of Zurich, Charles University Prague, Riga Graduate School of Law, Marmara Guest Researchers Seconded to Lund University University, University of Latvia) as well as Central Asian partner institutions (L.N. Gumilyov Eurasian National University, Khujand Polytechnic Institute of the Tajik Technical University, SIAR Research and Consulting, Tebigy Kuwwat Public Association, Academy of the General Prosecutor’s Office of Uzbekistan, Editor: Rustamjon Urinboyev Westminster International University in Tashkent). Tis research report consists of introduction and five papers that explore Research Report in Sociology of Law 2020:2 contemporary issues and challenges in Central Asia, such as the problems accompanying the internationalization of higher education and research, anti- corruption legal frameworks and the business climate, cultural branding, legal culture education, and the digital economy. Te main idea behind publishing this preliminary research report is to provide a platform for Central Asian guest researchers to present the research projects they developed during their research stay in Lund and share their initial research findings with the Central Asian Law project team and the wider academic and policy audiences. Another equally important aim was to empower our guest researchers, given the fact that many Central Asia-based researchers find it difficult to publish their academic work in Western academic venues due to different academic, economic, and ideological factors.

This work uses environ- mental monitoring techniques to analyze the current state of surface waters in the river. The content of main ions, biogenic and inorganic ions, heavy metals, organic impurities in seasonal and annual dynamics have been studied. Results show that, despite the tightening of requirements for wastew- ater discharge into the Ishim River basin, a number of water quality indicators did not fulfill the regulatory requirements for surface water bodies during 2013–2019. It has been identified that the greatest pollution in the Ishim River is brought by enterprises of the Karaganda-Temirtau techno- genic region, located in the upper reaches of the river. Future water quality monitoring is needed and should include increasing the number of sampling locations and the sampling frequency in Citation: Salikova, N.S.; order to characterize the spatial and temporal variability of hydrochemical parameters and allow a Rodrigo-Ilarri, J.; Alimova, K.K.; Rodrigo-Clavero, M.-E.

Multilateral and quantitative (to the practicable extent) assessment of media activity is important for understanding their objectivity, role, focus, and, ultimately, the quality of the society’s “fourth power”. The paper proposes a method for evaluating the media in several modalities (topics, evaluation criteria/properties, classes), combining topic modeling of the text corpora and multiple-criteria decision making.

  • Investigation of the Stress-Strain State of Balls Under Deformation in a Closed Die

VOLOKITINA ISSN 0543-5846 METABK 59(4) 559-562 (2020) UDC – UDK 621.775/539.4:621.73:539.374:620.16-539.373=111 INVESTIGATION OF THE STRESS-STRAIN STATE OF BALLS UNDER DEFORMATION IN A CLOSED DIE Received – Primljeno: 2020-01-27 Accepted – Prihvaćeno: 2020-06-10 Preliminary Note – Prethodno priopćenje The paper presents the results of the study of the production process of balls in a special closed die, which performs a full compression due to the alternate insertion of rams. The possibility of implementing the proposed method is proved experimentally, and the presence of high compressive stresses in the deformation center is shown using the method of sliding lines and mathematical computer modeling. Due to the alternate insertion of rams, the process of plastic deformation is intensified, which makes it possible to obtain high-quality balls. The maximum average stress in the deformation center obtained by the theoretical calculation method of sliding lines is – 436,94 MPa, and the values obtained by mathematical computer modeling is – 500 MPa. Metallographic analysis showed that the grain diameter of the obtained ball samples in the central part, compared to the initial samples, was crushed 3 times (up to 5 μm). Keywords: high strength ball, forging, severe plastic deformation, stress-strain state, closed die, modelling INTRODUCTION deformation [6 -8], which, using various schemes and combinations of stress-strain conditions, make it possi- It is known that metal balls work in very difficult ble to obtain materials with ultrafine-grained and nano- conditions: shock and dynamic, under static loads and structure at relatively low cost, have recently become increased wear.

  • Contribution of Kazakhmys to the Development of Regions of Presence
    CONTRIBUTION OF KAZAKHMYS TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF REGIONS OF PRESENCE DATE EVENT 1997 A unique Medical Center in Jezkazgan city was commissioned on August 10, 1997. The Podrobnosti newspaper, founded by the Kazakhmys Corporation, was published on October 17, 1997. 1998 The Museum of History and Production, named after K. I. Satbayev (founded on August 01, 1997), was opened in Jezkazgan city on January 23, 1998. A “Miner” educational and production complex was created as part of the Jezkazgan Agrarian Technical College (ZHATK) in December 1998. The Jezkazgan Polytechnic College (ZHPTK) was established based on the ZHATK in 2005. It included the “Miner” Training and Production Plant (UPK) that was renamed into the “Mining” department. 1999 The construction of a cultural center, built on the Kazakhmys Corporation’s initiative, has been completed in Satbayev city. 2000 The Jezkazgan Medical Center was opened on March 15, 2000. Medical Center was a structural subdivision of Kazakhmys Corporation LLP until 2014.
