Among the most interesting and mysterious natural phenomena, children's talent occupies one of the leading places

The secret of how and why Japan has taken one of the leading places in the world economy lies in the huge investments in modern technologies, in the incredible hard work of the Japanese and in several other factors. I wondered why private companies invest a significant portion of their income in scientific research and development? The fact is that the Japanese understand one thing simple thing– people will buy the best (including modern in all respects) products, created using high-tech equipment. Plus, there is also the “competitiveness factor”. According to him, buyers will prefer a product that fully satisfies their needs. And a lot of research helps companies find out what product is needed in at the moment to their consumers. You will be surprised, but Japanese manufacturers broke the world record by investing 800% of the same figure 25 years ago in research and new technologies.


Taxes, private business and resources.

Interestingly, the development of private business is another important reason why Japan has taken one of the leading places in the world economy. The state (represented by smart and pragmatic officials) understands that a developed person who is capable of doing business will be much more interested in the prosperity of his own business, compared to “working for an uncle.” Even if you have to pay large taxes. Still, 28-37% of current business taxes on a profit of $1 million is acceptable. Compared to 10% of $20 thousand “per owner.”

Surprisingly, Japan very successfully uses available resources: water, land, human. Moreover, they do not have enough land! She's all busy agriculture. With this approach, almost any country (if desired) could achieve similar success.


Alien technologies.

The Japanese embodied the saying “a smart person learns from other people’s mistakes” in at its best. Why? They actively use other people's inventions and technologies. But simply "copying" would be too easy for them. The Japanese take the "core" of an idea and then refine it until it produces a great result. We can say that they never tire of developing in this regard.

Introduction
Welding equipment and technology occupy one of the leading places in modern production. The hulls of giant supertankers and the retina are welded together human eye, miniature parts of semiconductor devices and human bones during surgical operations. Many designs of modern machines and structures, for example space rockets, submarines, gas and oil pipelines cannot be manufactured without welding. The development of technology places new demands on production methods and, in particular, on welding technology. Today, materials are welded that until relatively recently were considered exotic. These are titanium, niobium and beryllium alloys, molybdenum, tungsten, high-strength composite materials, ceramics, as well as all kinds of combinations of dissimilar materials. Electronic parts several microns thick and heavy equipment parts several meters thick are welded. The conditions in which welding work is carried out are constantly becoming more complicated: welding has to be done under water, at high temperatures, in a deep vacuum, with increased radiation, in zero gravity.

All this places increased demands on the qualifications of specialists in the field of welding, especially welding workers, since they are the ones who directly master new methods and techniques of welding, new welding machines. Today, it is not enough for a working welder to be able to perform several, even complex, operations of the welding method he has mastered. He must understand the physical essence of the main processes occurring during welding, know the features of welding of various structural materials, as well as the meaning and technological capabilities of other, both traditional and new, promising welding methods.

Welded structures used as load-bearing elements during the construction of buildings and structures belong to group II of responsibility, since their destruction during operation can lead to large material costs.

Responsibility group II requires increased attention to the quality of work performed in total production cycle(from material procurement to the scope of final product control).

Taking into account the design features of the product, the material of the incoming parts, as well as the annual production program (2000 pieces), the most optimal manufacturing method will be semi-automatic welding in a carbon dioxide environment.


  1. Welding method

Gas shielded welding is one of the arc welding methods. With this method, shielding gas is supplied to the arc zone, the stream of which, flowing around the electric arc and the weld pool, protects the molten metal from exposure atmospheric air, oxidation and nitriding. Welding in shielding gases has the following advantages: high productivity (2...3 times higher than conventional arc welding), the ability to weld in any spatial position, good protection of the welding zone from oxygen and nitrogen of the atmosphere, no need to clean the seam from slag and strip the seam for multilayer welding; small heat affected zone; relatively small deformations of products; the ability to monitor the seam formation process; availability of mechanization and automation. The disadvantages of this welding method are the need to take measures to prevent the blowing off of the shielding gas jet during the welding process, the use of gas equipment, and in some cases the use of relatively expensive shielding gases.

The following types of welding in shielding gas are known: in inert monoatomic gases (argon, helium), in neutral diatomic gases (nitrogen, hydrogen), in carbon dioxide. In practice, argon arc welding and carbon dioxide welding are most widely used. The inert gas helium is used very rarely due to its high cost. For welding critical structures, welding in a mixture of argon and carbon dioxide gases in a ratio of 85% argon and 15% CO 2 is widely used. The quality of this steel welding is very high. The arc is powered by direct current sources with a rigid characteristic. In recent years, welded rectifiers of the VDU series with universal external characteristic, i.e. hard, or steeply falling by simply switching the packet.

Alternating current is not used due to the low stability of the arc burning process, poor formation and poor quality of the weld. The arc voltage when welding in CO2 should be no more than 30 V, since spatter and oxidation increase with increasing voltage and arc length. Typically, the arc voltage is 22-28 V, welding speed is 20-80 m/h, gas consumption is 7-20 l/min. Welding in CO2 with wire gives deeper penetration than electrodes, therefore, when switching from manual welding, it is considered justified to reduce the legs by about 10%. This is explained by the increased current density per 1 mm 2 of electrode wire. The main elements of the welding mode in CO 2 are in Table 1.

Welding in carbon dioxide is carried out in almost all spatial positions, which is very important during construction and installation work. Welding is carried out by feeding the arc with direct current of reverse polarity. When welding with direct current of straight polarity, the stability of the arc decreases, the formation of the seam worsens and losses increase electrode metal for fumes and splashing. However, the deposition rate is 1.6...1.8 times higher than with reverse polarity. This quality is used in surfacing operations. Sheet material from carbon and low-alloy steels is successfully welded in carbon dioxide; sheets with a thickness of 0.6... 1.0 mm are welded with flanged edges. Welding without flanging is also allowed, but with a gap between the edges of no more than 0.3...0.5 mm. Sheets with a thickness of 1.0...8.0 mm are welded without cutting edges; in this case, the gap between the welded edges should be no more than 1 mm. Sheets with a thickness of 8... 12 mm are welded with a V-shaped seam, and for larger thicknesses - with an X-shaped seam. Before welding, the edges of the product must be thoroughly cleaned of dirt, paint, oxides and scale. Welding current and welding speed largely depend on the size of the groove being welded, i.e., on the amount of deposited metal. The voltage is set so as to obtain a stable welding process with the shortest possible arc (1.5...4.0 mm). With a longer arc length, the welding process is unstable, metal spatter increases, and the possibility of oxidation and nitriding of the deposited metal increases.

Rice. 2. Movement of the electrode during welding in carbon dioxide when performing a multi-layer weld
The figure shows the movements of the electrode during welding in carbon dioxide when making a multi-layer weld. To reduce the risk of cracking, it is recommended to weld the first layer at low welding current. The seam should be completed by filling the crater with metal. Then the supply of the electrode wire stops and the current is turned off. The supply of gas to the welded crater continues until the metal has completely solidified.


  1. Equipment composition

The composition of the technological equipment necessary to perform welding work during mechanized arc welding in shielding gases includes:


  • power supply;

  • assembly and welding devices;

  • gas equipment;

  • gas main devices;

  • welding machine (semi-automatic).

3.1 Power supply
Power supply (IP) of a welding arc is a device that provides the necessary type and strength of the arc current.

The power source and the welding arc form an interconnected energy system in which the power supply performs the following main functions: it provides the conditions for the initial excitation (ignition) of the arc, its stable combustion during the welding process and the ability to configure (regulate) the mode parameters.

An important technical characteristic of the IP, which determines the possibility of its operation with one or another type of arc, is the dependence of the voltage at the “welding” clamps (terminals) of the IP on the welding current. This dependence is called the external current-voltage characteristic (volt-ampere characteristic) of the IP. The most characteristic current-voltage characteristics for known IPs: steeply dipping, gently dipping and rigid .

Based on the type of current in the welding circuit, there are:


  1. alternating current sources - single-phase and three-phase welding transformers, specialized installations for welding aluminum alloys;

  2. DC sources - welding rectifiers and generators with drives of various types.
Depending on the number of stations served, there can be single-post and multi-post, and by application - general industrial and specialized power supplies.

IN in this case We use a modern, powerful 400-amp inverter power supply for semi-automatic welding and surfacing in shielding or active gases of the DC 400.33 brand.

This IP has:


  • Remote control of welding voltage.

  • Digital indicator of welding current and voltage.

  • Function >.

  • Power supply from both a stationary network and a diesel generator.

Among the most interesting and mysterious phenomena nature, children's talent occupies one of the leading places.

Additional education provides every child with the opportunity free choice educational field, profile of programs, time for their development, inclusion in various types of activities, taking into account their individual inclinations. Personal-activity character educational process allows you to solve one of the main problems additional educationidentification, development and support gifted children.

Gifted a child is a child who stands out with bright, obvious, sometimes outstanding achievements (or has internal prerequisites for such achievements) in one form or another."

Since the life of such children passes not only at a school desk or in additional education institutions, working with gifted children directly affects their parents. They are the ones who support the child in his endeavors from an early age and shape him giftedness.

Parents should accept children as they are, and not consider them as carriers of talents, and strive to develop personal quality: confidence, which is based on the consciousness of self-worth, understanding the strengths and weaknesses in oneself, intellectual curiosity and willingness to take research risks, respect for kindness, the habit of relying on one’s own strengths….

Education begins in family: all generations educate each other, so the clan and family must preserve traditions and collectively work on the development of a talented child.

As the great Russian teacher V. writes. Sukhomlinsky: “Roots are laid in a family, from which branches, flowers, and fruits then grow.”

Usually identified by parents as signs of mental giftedness high speech development, memorization large quantity poems and fairy tales, in themselves about such giftedness cannot testify. A large amount of knowledge is also often based on a child's good memory, and good memory, although typical for many mentally gifted children, however, is not decisive in their development.

A distinction should be made between imparting skills and assistance in developing abilities. I often come across the fact that some parents, having taught to read and write, believe that they are contributing to the development of the child. In fact, it's just about imparting skills.

Most often in children it manifests itself giftedness in the field of mathematics, visual arts, music, etc. In activities related to giftedness, children remember much better, can be attentive longer, focused, remain functional longer, and absorb the material more easily.

Often parents create around gifted child"halo effect", expecting high results from him in literally everything. However, it is quite possible that the child's abilities are high only in certain areas.

Planning joint activities of parents and teachers of group associations early development preschoolers is underway in four directions:

Psychological support for the family of a capable child;

Information environment for parents;

joint practical activities capable child and his parents;

Support and encouragement of parents at the institution level.

The system deserves attention childish-parental relationships, in which the following are fulfilled conditions:

Recognition of the unconditional value of the child;

Creating an environment for its unconditional acceptance, that is, situations in which there is no external assessment;

Providing the child with freedom of expression;

Development and implementation of creative creativity through manifestation the child's individuality;

Supporting the child’s mental efforts, a friendly attitude towards his cognitive energy.

Basic form joint work are parent meetings.

Especially for parents of students of MBU DO "Station for young naturalists" in early childhood development associations preschool age a cycle of parenting has been developed meetings: “My child is the eighth wonder of the world”, "We create miracles together» .

Among the activities to work with parents, significant take up space not only consultations on problems of development, training and education gifted children, but also round tables, "family living room" next character:

Concept giftedness. Species giftedness.

Psychological aspects giftedness.

Social adaptation gifted child.

One of the brightest manifestations of talent in preschool age - a wealth of imagination. Gifted children As a rule, more often than others, they come up with something, compose something. To develop children's creative abilities and creative thinking together Master classes are held with parents. Most unusual and unforgettable "Collage of Desires" on which, using colorful compositions, all cherished dreams were expressed on a sheet of paper.

Experience modern education shows that there are differences between children. Children with more developed intelligence than their peers, with creativity, with the ability to classify, generalize, and find relationships. They are constantly looking for an answer to questions that interest them, inquisitive, independent, active. Teachers of early development group associations attract such children to participate in All-Russian Olympiads and quizzes where children take prizes.

During classes according to the programs "Educational games" And "The world around us" in working with gifted children use interactive games with educational and educational tasks different levels complexity.

The child and his parents can select the necessary tasks according to different directions on the next websites:

Mersibo

Let's play

Miracle Yudo portal, etc.

Be honest. All children are very sensitive to lies, and gifted This applies to children to a greater extent.

Assess the child's developmental level.

Avoid long explanations or conversations.

Try to catch changes in the child in time. They can be expressed in unusual questions or behavior and are a sign giftedness.

Respect your child's individuality. Don't try to project your own onto him. interests and hobbies.

Develop in your children the following quality:

confidence based on one’s own sense of self-worth;

understanding the strengths and weaknesses in oneself and in others;

intellectual curiosity and willingness to take research risks;

respect for kindness, honesty, friendliness, empathy, patience, spiritual courage;

the habit of relying on one’s own strengths and the willingness to take responsibility for one’s actions;

ability to help find common language and joy in communicating with people of all ages.

The association of early development groups for preschool children provides support and encouragement to children and parents in the form of letters of thanks and letters.

World experience shows that often faith in a child’s capabilities, coupled with the skill of teachers and parents, can work miracles. In life, it often turns out that what is important is not even what you give to a person nature, but what he was able to do with the gift that he has.

Goal and objectives. Teach children to distinguish between living and inanimate nature. Clarify children's ideas about the properties of water and air and their role in life.

There are a lot of cooking recipes. Each method is original and unique. From the same products, an experienced cook can prepare several different dishes that have a unique taste and aroma.

For culinary recipes different countries had a great influence religious beliefs. For example, in Eastern countries it is prohibited to eat pork and alcoholic beverages. These products successfully replace other types of meat and various sauces, juices, soft drinks, which are used in the preparation of a particular dish instead of wine.

In European countries, many recipes include small amounts of alcoholic beverages, which give dishes an unusual taste.

In addition, in Europe, wine and other alcoholic beverages are not only used in cooking, but are also traditionally served with any dish. Gourmets are of the opinion that wine enhances the taste of food, giving it piquancy and sophistication.

Depending on geographical location In one country or another, changes were made to the same recipes over a long period of time. Cooks replaced the products used, added seasonings and spices that changed the taste of the finished dish.

The taste and aroma of food plays a significant role kitchen utensils in which it is prepared. For example, in eastern countries A cauldron is used to prepare pilaf. In another container, this dish will not be as aromatic and tasty.

This book contains the most popular recipes from Russia, China, Azerbaijan, Armenia, England, France, Mexico, the United States of America and Australia.

The cuisine of each of these countries is interesting and unique. The dishes whose recipes are given in the book can be prepared at home.

Some of the dishes presented here are quite simple and do not require much time to create. Other recipes are original.

Chapter 2 provides recipes from eastern countries such as China, Azerbaijan, and Armenia.

They are characterized by spicy seasonings and sauces served with meat (mainly lamb). Popular among the peoples of the East fish dishes.

These states are characterized by light food. These are primarily salads, sandwiches, sandwiches. The dishes are traditionally served various wines, sauces.

Chapter 4 contains recipes from Mexico and the United States.

Cold appetizers, poultry, vegetable dishes and seafood are widely used in the cuisine of these countries. Dishes are also popular instant cooking, which do not require much time and effort.

Chapter 5 features Australian recipes. The population of this state prefers vegetable and fruit salads and meat dishes.

Chapter 1. Russian cuisine

One of the leading places among the most popular culinary recipes all over the world is occupied by recipes for Russian cuisine. This is due to the fact that since ancient times, various peoples have lived on the territory of our country, whose traditions have influenced the methods of cooking. Due to the fact that Russia is located in two parts of the world, Europe and Asia, the cuisine of our country successfully combines recipes that are popular among European and Asian peoples.

Russian cuisine contains flour and fish dishes characteristic only of Russia, pickles, jams, pickled vegetables, as well as salads common in Europe, and hot sauces that are an integral part of Asian cuisine.

Despite the close proximity of other countries, Russian cuisine has not lost its national character. Many dishes traditional for Russia are widely known outside our country.

It is hardly possible to meet a tourist who came from another country who would not try traditional Russian cabbage soup, pancakes, kulebyaki and pies.
