When an oil tank collapses or ruptures any contained hazardous substance flows outwards and can damage nearby plant or people as well as lead to pollution of the local environment. In recent years, this and similar subjects have given rise to a new kind of engineering—spill prevention and control. However, theoretical background, backed by experiment, is lacking to work out reliable regulations. An intermediate-asymptotic analysis for late-stage spreading is carried out in this paper. This analysis reveals several characteristic features of the spill wave such as transition period and linear relationships between spreading area and time, and wave front velocity and the inverse of zone radius. Most of the latter results have been verified by model experiment. This paper also discusses the discrepancies between observations and the theory suggested in a recent UK Health and Safety Executive report. Finally, the present paper puts forward proper modeling rules for future work.

Statement of the problem. The question of the classification of housing legal relations into regulatory and protective ones is not debatable. But not because there is a consensus on this issue in the doctrine, but because until now it has not become the subject of special research. In some works, one can find a brief mention of the division of housing legal relations into regulatory and protective, but it is difficult to find a detailed presentation of the author’s position on this issue. Against the background of the active development of the classification of civil legal relations into regulatory and protective inattention to this issue in the science of housing law looks like a serious omission over the past decades. Goals and objectives of the study. The article discusses the main provisions justifying the classification under consideration, examines the attitude towards it in the literature of a housing legal nature. Research methods: the article uses a logical method, and above all such techniques as analysis and synthesis, functional and comparative legal methods. Results, brief conclusions: ignoring the classification in question leads to contradictions in the doctrine of housing legal relations, to the ingraining of unreliable ideas about the ratio of the categories included in this doctrine. It seems important to carry out further research of housing legal relations on the basis of a consistent classification of housing legal relations into regulatory housing legal relations and protective housing legal relations.

This chapter examines the characteristic features of the Islamic criminal justice system and shows how the Islamic system may differ from other systems. One of the distinctive features of the Islamic system is that it relies on scripture as the basis of juristic doctrines. These doctrines have been developed by scholars in tandem with the cultures and customs of their communities.

This chapter compares account-based securities settlement systems with payment systems in which funds are transferred through bank accounts in England and Japan and examines a desirable securities system to harmonize the relevant countries’ jurisprudence considering US securities system and relevant international trends. It argues that there should be two broad areas of similarity in both systems; compartmentalization of a legal relationship between related parties and the method of transfer of securities and funds. It also argues, however, that, due to the differences in the legal nature of both financial assets, there are some differences between both systems in order to response intermediary risk. The purpose of this chapter is not only to propose that similar legal issues in both systems should be resolved in same ways as much as possible, but also to distinguish issues which could be resolved in commercial law from issues which should be resolved in the field of regulations by financial authorities in securities system.

The subject of the article is the study of the theoretical and legal aspect of the development of the institution of accessory obligations. The genesis of the category of "accessory" in Roman law is considered, where the formula of the ancients is derived: the validity of the accessory legal relationship is predetermined by the reality of the basic legal relationship, and was quite simple and concise, there is no basic obligation - no additional one. The evolution of "accessory" in domestic civil law is revealed, which consists in the following: in pre-revolutionary civil law, the theory of security deviated from accessory for the sake of convenience for the circulation of security obligations; in the Soviet period, the identification of the terms "security" and "accessory" obligation took root in the scientific circulation; and at the present stage of development of the theory of accessory in Russian civil law, the concept of "accessory" is identified with a security obligation.The author comes to the conclusion about the multidimensionality of the category of "accessory", which consists in the fact that in the course of the development of law, the understanding of accessory obligations has undergone significant changes, going from the perception of accessory as a kind of obligation that ensures the return of debt and the transfer of "belonging" to the goods sold, to its identification with security obligations in general. Gradually, in the legal doctrine, the opinion was fixed that different types of obligations have the property of accessory, and each of them has its own characteristic features and has its own specifics. According to the authors of the article, the further development of the civilistic doctrine of the accessory of obligations will contribute to the final consolidation of the definition of "accessory" within the framework of Russian civil law.

The article seeks to define the legal nature of the responsibility of a host state in transnational investment disputes. It considers numerous rules (treaties, national law, customs, soft law, etc.) and their application within a domestic legal system to ensure the proper implementation of civil and other legal rights and obligations of host states and foreign investors. It is argued that the involvement of foreign investors and host states in international commercial arbitration, including the ICSID, and the application of international law (along with national law) as a legal ground for the payment of compensation, do not change the nature of the existing legal relationship between the parties of the investment dispute. The responsibility of the host state to the foreign investor expressed in the state’s obligation to pay damages (compensation) remains in the private, rather than international public law sphere. In conditions of lack of proper rules of investment law states should not stand aside from the present process of making such rules by non-state actors. This situation detracts from the treaty as a major source of international law, sometimes does not correspond to the interests of host states and moreover may threaten their sovereignty.
