INVESTIGATION OF SHRINKAGE DEFORMATIONS OF KERALITE CONCRETE ON CARBONATE SAND

Igor Anatoliyovych Stolevych — 2025-01-31

Abstract. Рurpose. The aim of the work is to study the shrinkage of keralite concrete on carbonate sand including under the influence of composition factors. Methodology. The study of shrinkage and creep of keralite concrete on carbonate sand was carried out according to the method of experiment planning. The factors taken as factors are: 1.Cement consumption C, kg/m3 – Х1. 2.Aggregate-structural factor r – Х2. 3.Age of concrete by the moment of loading t0, days.- Х3. Shrinkage strains were determined according to the requirements of [10]. Results. Our experiments and experiments [4; 9; 13; 14; 17] confirmed the known rule about the independence of the effect of cement consumption within the usual norms for obtaining mixtures of the same mobility. Consequently, an increase in cement consumption at constant water consumption leads to an increase in the strength and relative volume of crystalline aggregate, which, like inert aggregate, has a restraining effect on the volumetric changes in the gel accompanied by concrete shrinkage. Water is the cause of moisture-physical phenomena in cement stone causing its shrinkage. Therefore, for the most complete reflection of the influence of composition factors, it is necessary to introduce water consumption into the structure of the dependence. Scientific novelty. The consistent application of dispersion, correlation and regression analyses of the results of experimental studies allowed to establish the structure of dependence between εsc(∞, tw) and the composition factors W, C, r, to determine the coefficients at the regression terms and the necessary static characteristics. Practical significance. Prediction of shrinkage strain limits εsc(∞, tw) is important for their normalisation and further design of concrete compositions. However, the practical use of the regression equation for predicting εsc(∞, tw) is difficult because it only indirectly takes into account the influence of such a factor as the amount of mixing water.

The article uses methods of comparative and stylistic analysis. The method of analysis of the artistic repertoire is used to study art printed publications. Also, important importance was given to methods of synthesis of exhibition and printed contexts of projects. Results. The author of the article identified and substantiated three types of representation of exhibition practices. The first type is a holistic universal representation. This type represents an art exhibition as a holistic project, the individual components of which do not have independent meaning. The second type is the curatorial practice of mediation between biography and the institutional space of the exhibition (museum, gallery, etc.). Through the efforts of curatorial mediation, the exhibition acquires new figurative and artistic meanings. Also, due to this, the exhibition goes beyond the scope of the type or genre (for example, only sculpture or only portrait) and develops biographical stories, stories about stages and directions in art, etc. The third type is a parallel system of exhibition in research and representational contexts, which combines emotional and intellectual consumption of art. The exhibition creates opportunities for researching artistic phenomena directly in the process of representation. In this case, the research spaces (for example, an album for the exhibition or a conceptual catalog) become a relevant platform for the analytical presentation of artistic phenomena. Scientific novelty. The role of printed art publications as a tool for exhibition activities has been identified and generalized; the types of representation of exhibition practices have been defined and substantiated. Practical relevance. The results of the study can be used both in exhibition practice and for scientific understanding of exhibition development issues.

The following was applied: systematic analysis to determine the place of modern book design in the historical context of the development of Ukrainian design; contextual analysis to determine the relationship between modern book design and the socio-cultural climate and economic situation of Ukraine; analysis and generalization of existing scientific works on similar topics; a descriptive-research method for the analysis of related works of art. Results. In the process of research, the general historical development of Ukrainian book design in the XX and XXI centuries (with a focus on the end of the XX – beginning of the XXI), economic and social factors that influenced book design were analyzed; information from previous studies was summarized; the artistic and communicative properties of modern illustration are investigated; selected pre-project research criteria that should be paid attention to when designing an illustrated publication. The scientific novelty of the obtained results lies in the determination of the principles of book publication design, which includes the study of the historical, social, cultural and economic context and taking into account the artistic and communicative properties of modern illustration. Practical significance. The study can be perceived as certain methodological guidelines for a comprehensive approach to the design and layout of an illustrated edition through the prism of historical and cultural development.

PERCEPTION, AND RESONANCE: RESEARCH ON GENERATIVE AI IN DIGITAL PICTURE BOOK DESIGN

Yan Li — 2025-02-04

Abstract. The purpose. This research aims to the operation and role of generative AI in human-AI co-creation, with digital picture book design as the creative object. Using stimulation, perception, and resonance as the starting point, construct a human- AI collaboration model, and unleash the potential of emotional design in generative AI applications. Меthodology. By analyzing the current application of generative AI technology in story,image,sound and animation creation, summarizing the different work modes between human and generative AI, and using the three stages of emotional design influence the modeling construction. Results. Based on analysing the current situation of humans working with generative AI, this paper constructs a four-step research framework from stimulation, perception to resonance and feedback based on the three levels of emotional design. Through an analysis of the creation process and feedback from the digital picture book 'Umbrella', this study evaluates the advantages and disadvantages of such collaboration. It identifies respective strengths in both humans and AIs during the collaborative process and highlights a gap in generative AI's understanding of human semantics, which impacts emotional resonance. The study suggests that visual and auditory stimuli can enhance mutual understanding between generative AI and humans through repeated exposure. Finally, it constructs an ideal model for human-AI collaboration to guide further research. Scientific novelty. The research focuses on the human-AI collaboration model and how machine creations can understand humans and achieve emotional resonance. Practical significance. This study provides some reference on the communication pathways between generative AI and human work, and how emerging technologies can understand human emotions in the creative field in the future.
