Influence of Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR) Shore Hardness and Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Elastic Modulus on the Sealing Characteristics of Step Rod Seals by Bingqing Wang, Xiaoxuan Li, Xudong Peng, Yuntang Li, Xiang Li, Yuan Chen, Jie Jin

“…The influence of NBR Shore hardness and PTFE elastic modulus on the sealing characteristics of step rod seals is analyzed in this paper based on the developed mixed elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) model. The optimized selection studies of NBR Shore hardness and PTFE elastic modulus under different operating conditions are carried out based on the principle of minimizing net leakage and friction power loss. …”

ECONOMIC COMPONENT OF THE JUDICIAL CAREER DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM by Sergey Vitvitskyi, Olena Nazymko, Tetiana Ponomarova

“…It is noted that the principle of judicial immutability as a basic criterion for assessing the national judicial system is implemented through: 1) the normatively defined age limit of a judge; 2) a non-alternative list of cases in which a judge may be transferred to another position (including a lower one) without his consent; 3) the established procedure for bringing a judge to disciplinary responsibility; 4) an extensive system of bodies performing organisational, administrative and control functions; 5) provision for the assessment of a judge's activity by independent public bodies (the Council for Public Integrity); 6) available competitive selection for the position, except for the cases established by law. …”
