The effect of organomodified silica particles on the extraction of dissolved diesel fuel from water was studied. The dependence of the efficiency of water purification on the concentration and type of solid particles, as well as the concentration and type of surfactant, is shown. When using a short-chain surfactant to modify the surface of silica particles, the minimum residual concentration of diesel fuel was 2.71 mg/l at a concentration of 4% Aerosil-380 and hexylamine 57 mmol/l. Replacing the short-chain surfactant hexylamine with the long-chain CTAMB led to an 8% improvement in the quality of water purification due to an increase in the surface activity of the organic cation. The use of modified clay particles to purify water from diesel fuel showed lower efficiency compared to Aerosil-380 particles at similar concentrations of the solid phase and surfactant modifier.

The paper presents a solution to the problem of accelerating the process of visualizing the results of numerical simulation. The volumes of such data can be very large and the development of tools to speed up the process of analyzing modeling results is an urgent task. This article proposes a solution to the problem based on the development of a set of programs that automate the process of processing large-volume scientific data of the same type to create high-quality visualizations of the results of numerical modeling. The results are presented using the example of solving problems in astrophysics, but the proposed methodology can be quite easily applied to other subject areas in which models based on the dynamics of particle systems are used. The research described in the work is devoted to solving issues related to converting data obtained from numerical modeling into a format that can be read by the ParaView softwart, which implements many methods that allow obtaining very high-quality visualization. The work also describes the process of automating batch processing of a large amount of data that has the same structure, presents the results of an analysis of the acceleration of the visualization process when using the NVIDIA IndeX plug-in, and considers the possibility of improving the quality of visualization results when applying Delaunay triangulation to the original data.

The article discusses proposals for improving the use of discharge-pulse technology in the construction of boron-injection piles and camouflage widenings of bored piles with diameters of more than 300 mm. The application of voltages on the electrode system of a pulse current generator from 10 to 50 kV and an electric capacity of about 300 UF is considered. It has been found that in the case of using a relatively low voltage on the electrodes and an increase in the electrical capacity of the capacitor bank, the duration of the shock wave pressure on the ground increases several times. This contributes to a more intensive penetration of the liquid hardening material into the intergranular space of the near-well soil massif. It is proposed to use solutions using slag-alkali binders as a hardening material in the formation of boron-injection piles. Such solutions have greater fluidity compared to cement solutions and, when hardened, form a stone with greater strength and density. The article presents data from experimental studies confirming the increased strength (R = 130 MPa) and frost resistance of a solution prepared on slag-alkali binders, as well as data on determining their corrosion resistance to various aggressive media contained in groundwater. The possibility of stable breakdown of the interelectrode gap in aqueous solutions of slag-alkali media of various consistencies has been established, optimal energy parameters of the discharge have been determined for maximum effect of fixing the soils of the foundations.

Destructive information in text is widespread and dangerous for children and teenagers as well as for adults. Current methods of searching destructive information in text: “keyword search”, “reverse document frequency method” have a number of disadvantages that can cause false positives, which reduces the accuracy of their work. In this article we consider a new developed method of searching destructive information in text, which is used in Python module. This method utilizes Spacy, pymorphy3 libraries which allows us to examine the sentence in detail and delve into its meaning. The developed method reduces false positives and thus increases the efficiency of its use. The paper shows the schemes of sentence parsing, the algorithm of the new method, as well as figures demonstrating its work. The comparative analysis of the new method with analogs is shown.

Images on web-sites, social networks, computers may contain destructive content and pose a threat to the psyche of a child or adolescent. Conventional image classification does not always classify it correctly and accordingly has a number of drawbacks due to which there can be false positives, which reduces the accuracy of classification. The paper presents a method in Python module that can detect malicious content in images. The method described in the paper is based on the use of Yolov8 library, which provides good classification of images and further analysis. Using the developed method it was possible to reduce the number of false positives, which led to an increase in its efficiency. The paper shows the scheme of operation of the new method, as well as demonstrated the search for objects in images. Similar programs are considered and their comparative analysis with the developed method is carried out.

The production of nitrogen from air using membrane gas separation processes is widely used in many industries. The problem of controlling the gas separation process is associated with multi-loop control using control of several variables.

The article is devoted to applied issues of improving regional security management processes through the development of methods for analyzing data on emergency situations. In order to identify patterns in the occurrence of emergency situations, multidimensional methods of processing statistical data were used. A multidimensional classification of data in the field of emergency situations based on fuzzy logic is proposed. The classification was performed using a fuzzy inference system with clear membership functions. As statistical data, data on emergency situations of a man-made, natural and biological-social nature that occurred in the federal districts of Russia in 2020, including data on dead and saved people, were considered. An analysis of data samples on regional emergency situations was carried out according to 5 criteria, and clustering of regions was carried out.

A new approach to increasing the efficiency of extreme control systems by improving the method of searching for the extremum of the objective function is presented. In its multidimensional nonlinear optimization, instead of a traditional linear search along a once selected direction, an exploratory search is used, the direction of which at each step is adapted to the topology of the objective function. This makes it possible to localize an extremum as quickly as possible and significantly reduce the time of its determination. An algorithm for interpolation search for an extremum in the found interval is proposed. The objective function is modeled by a cubic spline segment based on information about its gradient vector at the boundary points of the interval, as a result of which the number of interpolation search steps is significantly reduced. The possibility of simplified nonsmooth interpolation using first-order splines in the extremum region is considered. The results of a numerical experiment confirm the high efficiency of the new method in solving various problems.
