Who helped Shishkin draw bears in the painting Morning in a pine forest?

The picture "Morning in a Pine Forest" Ivan Shishkin was painted not alone, but in collaboration with Konstantin Savitsky (who painted bears).

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Aluminum film protects against forest fires 20.09.2021

Flexible aluminum sheets are not widely used because they are expensive and difficult to install, however the technology is advancing and becoming more widely available.

Firezat sells rolls of fire protection film that works like a real shield. Each roll costs approximately $700 each. The company says that a building that can be protected with this film will not burn. Unless only the fire will come into direct contact with him.

The wrapper draws heat away from buildings, helping to prevent flammable materials from igniting. It also prevents airborne coals from slipping through vents and other openings in the home. Thanks to the fiberglass backing and acrylic adhesive, the wrappers can withstand temperatures up to 522 degrees Celsius.

Firezat Founding President Dan Hearing said the US Forest Service wrapped 600 to 700 buildings, bridges, communication towers and other structures in national forests this year alone. On Lake Tahoe, they wrapped the Angora Ridge Lookout, a nationally registered historic fire lookout tower.

About a decade ago, the greatest damage from forest fires was the vegetation that caught fire near the houses.

Recent studies have shown that inter-structural fires play a large role, spreading in a domino effect due to the enormous heat that causes industrial materials to ignite.
