It is known that prominent world-class swimmers are characterized by the manifestation of specific abilities. These abilities allow to constantly maintain a stable speed swimming of different segments of the distance. In this case, highly qualified swimmers can increase the maximum speed of swimming on a segment of a given length. They achieve this by increasing the total external mechanical power. In this case, swimmers keep, and in some cases even reduce the power of the stroke. It is implemented the phase-specific principle of creating driving forces during each phase. At the same time, the principle of creating driving forces is common to all swimming locomotion. The article gives a rationale for the effectiveness of the integral criterion application for evaluating swimming techniques. The integral criterion for evaluating the swimming technique was applied at remote speeds of the entire spectrum of the competitive front crawl swimming program. Material . The study involved 9 highly qualified crawl-stroke swimmers, members of Russia national team. The age of the participants ranged from 18 to 24 years. It is studied the kinematic and kinetic characteristics of the front crawl swimming technique of highly qualified athletes at various competitive distances. The studies applied video recording of swimmer’s movements with OLYMPUS TG-5 camera (Vietnam) from a depth of 4.5 m. Three luminous markers located on the swimmer’s hips were applied to record the dynamic parameters of swimmer’s movements. The results of the swims were processed with Natatometry™ (Russia). Results . It was determined that swimmers demonstrated high indices of the intra-cyclic dynamic index (ICDI - Intra Cycle Dynamic Index) and the dynamic coordination index of the swimming cycle (DCI - Dynamic Coordination Index) at speeds in medium distances relative to speeds at sprint distances. Swimmers demonstrate the ability to generate a significant amount of promotional efforts at 100 m distance that ensure the achievement of high speeds. It is established that no general trends in ICDI changes in individual structural phases of the stroke. This indicates the demonstration of individual specific features in the swimming technique of each athlete. Conclusion . It is considered the feasibility of applying the integral indicators ICDI and DCI for a quantitative assessment of the intra cycle promotion forces interaction and hydrodynamic resistance forces arising at the level of an integral biomechanical system of the swimming cycle.

The current problem of tradition protection, significant objects of culture draws attention of researchers to studying of memorial places, to reactualization of social memory. The article developed characteristic features of memorial places and collective memory research methodology. Generalizes the essential historical and cultural opportunities given by a product "memory places" virtual modeling technologies. In similar researches application of cross-disciplinary approach, use of the methods, technologies and materials provided by historical science, theoretical provisions of cultural anthropology, yielded and results of mathematical modeling and virtual design. The article considered theoretical provisions of the "memory places" historical and cultural reconstruction project, on the example of the memorial places in the territory of the Tambov region connected with a name of the composer S.V. Rachmaninov. A specific place among them by right is held "A Satin's manor "Ivanovka". Marks the main sources of historical and cultural reconstruction of Rachmaninov's memorial places in Tambov region. They include memoirs literature, letters and archive materials. A number of positions on the map of Rachmaninoff's places demand further development, selection and analysis of materials for historical reconstruction. It should be noted, as out of the historical and cultural reconstruction project the content of a research represents a considerable complex of the commemorative materials.
