Where does Ulyanovsk want to be in the future (2050)? How do we get there? • The workshop could be exemplary for planning urban interventions in other Russian cities. • The workshop will provide indications for successful and sustainable event planning in Russia (e.g. FIFA 2018).

  • Analysis of the Constructive Features of the Earth Dam
    MATEC Web of Conferences 196, 02002 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/201819602002 XXVII R-S-P Seminar 2018, Theoretical Foundation of Civil Engineering Analysis of the Constructive Features of the Earth Dam Mikhail Balzannikov1, 1Samara State University of Economics, 443090 Samara, 141 Sovetskoi Armii St, Russia Abstract. The article considers the earth dam of the run-of-river unit – Kuibyshev hydroelectric power station on the Volga river (Russia). The main parameters of the earth dam, peculiarities of its erection and operation are described. The article notes the importance of ensuring a high degree of reliability of water structures constructed near major cities. It is especially important to monitor the condition of retaining structures with long service life. The factors influencing the change of the initial design conditions of operation of the Kuibyshev run-of-river unit dam are discussed. The results of examination of the geometric parameters of the body of the dam, performed at different periods of its maintenance, are analyzed. Examination results revealed significant deviations of the elevation marks of the earth dam surface on the upstream side from the design values. Possible causes of the discrepancy between these parameters and the design solutions are considered. The conclusion is drawn that the most likely reason for these features of the dam design lies in the initial incompleteness of construction. The measures for carrying out repair work to improve the reliability of the earth dam are being recommended. 1 Introduction At present, ensuring reliable operation of retaining water structures is a very urgent requirement for both operating enterprises and design organizations [1, 2].

  • Environmental Problems of Agricultural Land Use in the Samara Region
    DOI: 10.22616/j.balticsurveying.2019.010 ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS OF AGRICULTURAL LAND USE IN THE SAMARA REGION Zudilin Sergey, Konakova Alyona Samara State Agricultural Academy, Russia Abstract The zones of ecological trouble cover about 15% of the territory of Russia, where the main production capacities and the most productive agricultural lands are concentrated. The Samara region is characterized by a distinct natural zonality from a typical forest-steppe in the North with a forest cover close to 30%, to an open dry steppe in the South with a natural forest cover of only 0.1...0.2%. The article presents an analysis of land use in the Samara region on the example of the Borsky municipal district. Research methods include environmental analysis and statistical data analysis.The article presents an analysis of the land use of the Borskiy municipal district. During zoning, the territory of the district is divided into the northern, central and southern parts. Assessment of environmental and economic parameters showed heterogeneity of the territory and the need for detailed consideration of climatic, soil, economic conditions in the design of landscape optimization systems, even in the municipal area. In general, the district's land fund experiences an average anthropogenic load, the ecological stability of the territory as a whole is characterized as unstable stable. In comparison with other areas of the Central MES, the municipal Borskiy district belongs to the category with an average ecological intensity with a stabilization index of 0.59 units due to the beneficial influence of the Buzuluksky area. Key words: anthropogenic, influence, factor, ploughing of the territory; ecological stability of the territory Introduction The development of agriculture and agriculture in General puts the issues of improving the use of land resources at the forefront in the overall system of measures aimed at improving the efficiency of public production.

  • The Use of Modified Composite Materials in Building Hydraulic Engineering Structures
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia Engineering 91 ( 2014 ) 183 – 187 XXIII R-S-P seminar, Theoretical Foundation of Civil Engineering (23RSP) (TFoCE 2014) The Use of Modified Composite Materials in Building Hydraulic Engineering Structures Mikhail I. Balzannikova*, Andrey A. Mikhaseka a Samara State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering (SSUACE), Molodogvardeyskaya St 194, Samara 443001, Russia Abstract The article describes hydraulic engineering structures which are built in low-head water power hydro systems and which can also be used to stabilize river bank slopes. The paper gives information on the condition of riverbanks in Samara region and underlines the necessity to increase the amount of works on bank-stabilization. The paper stresses the importance of decreasing the expenses on building bank-stabilizing hydraulic engineering structures without any loss in their reliability and safety. Authors propose to build such structures using composite materials and their modifications and take geosynthetics, polymer-impregnated concrete and waste-/by-products as their constituents. The research also describes how the properties of composite materials change when they are modified for building hydraulic engineering structures. © 2014 The The Authors. Authors.

  • Tetrapod Localities from the Triassic of the SE of European Russia
    Earth-Science Reviews 60 (2002) 1–66 www.elsevier.com/locate/earscirev Tetrapod localities from the Triassic of the SE of European Russia Valentin P. Tverdokhlebova, Galina I. Tverdokhlebovaa, Mikhail V. Surkova,b, Michael J. Bentonb,* a Geological Institute of Saratov State University, Ulitsa Moskovskaya, 161, Saratov 410075, Russia b Department of Earth Sciences, University of Bristol, Bristol, BS8 1RJ, UK Received 5 November 2001; accepted 22 March 2002 Abstract Fossil tetrapods (amphibians and reptiles) have been discovered at 206 localities in the Lower and Middle Triassic of the southern Urals area of European Russia. The first sites were found in the 1940s, and subsequent surveys, from the 1960s to the present day, have revealed many more. Broad-scale stratigraphic schemes have been published, but full documentation of the rich tetrapod faunas has not been presented before. The area of richest deposits covers some 900,000 km2 of territory between Samara on the River Volga in the NW, and Orenburg and Sakmara in the SW. Continental sedimentary deposits, consisting of mudstones, siltstones, sandstones, and conglomerates deposited by rivers flowing off the Ural Mountain chain, span much of the Lower and Middle Triassic (Induan, Olenekian, Anisian, Ladinian). The succession is divided into seven successive svitas, or assemblages: Kopanskaya (Induan), Staritskaya, Kzylsaiskaya, Gostevskaya, and Petropavlovskaya (all Olenekian), Donguz (Anisian), and Bukobay (Ladinian). This succession, comprising up to 3.5 km of fluvial and lacustrine sediments, documents major climatic changes. At the beginning of the Early Triassic, arid-zone facies were widely developed, aeolian, piedmont and proluvium. These were replaced by fluvial facies, with some features indicating aridity.

(Fabaceae) were studied on the periphery of its range (the Middle Volga region and the Bashkir Cis-Urals) and in its central part (the Altai Mountains region). Types of cenopopulations were determined according to the “delta-omega” criterion: in the Bashkir Urals, they were mostly young, in the Middle Volga region, they were mature, in the Altai Mountains, they were maturing. The proportion of pregenerative individuals in populations increases in habi- tats with high moisture levels. Anthropogenic load (mainly in the form of grazing) had a greater ef- fect on the number and density of individuals, rather than on the type of ontogenetic spectrum of cenopopulations.

  • 2008 "Instilling a Love for Nature"
    Instilling a Love for Nature M.Rykhlikova, PhD (Biology), Senior Researcher at Lomonosov State University Institute of Ecological Soil Sciences and head of the National Telecommunications Project “Environmental Commonwealth” E. Bondarchuk, PhD (Economics), FSD Projects Manager E. Lvoutina, PhD (Engineering Sciences) FSD Director for Communications and Development L.V.Chernyshova, journalist Moscow How and when does one learn to appreciate nature? How does one become aware of being a part of a living organism called planet Earth? Of course, during childhood, when the desire to do something good with friends is strong and when studying the nature of one’s native land, improving the appearance of the schoolyard and space around one’s home and protecting rivers and lakes becomes a fascinating endeavor.
