  • Improving images of asphalt concrete pavements based on segmentation methods

    To assess the quality of the road surface, there are many systems that work on the basis of specific algorithms, including image segmentation methods. Time complexity and classification accuracy are two key indicators when evaluating the effectiveness of a particular algorithm. In this article, the following image segmentation methods are used as the analyzed methods: k-means clustering, Linear clustering, Adaptive thresholding, Global thresholding. Based on the methods described in the section "Methodology of experiments", the "Global thresholds" method has the best indicators of classification accuracy and time complexity (38.2% - classification accuracy; time complexity is linear (other methods have the same type of complexity, however, GT has much less absolute time indicators).

  • Improving the quality of road surface images based on morphological processing techniques

    Road surface quality assessment is one of the most popular tasks around the world. To solve it, there are a large number of systems that work using certain algorithms, including methods of morphological image processing. One of the key criteria for the effectiveness of an algorithm is its time complexity. The following approaches of morphological processing is considered in the article: Dilation, Erosion, Morphological Gradient, Morphological Smoothing. Photos of the road surface of various conditions were used as the material for the study. Based on the proposed methodology of the experiment, it turned out that each of the selected algorithms has a linear time complexity, but the "Dilation" and "Erosion" algorithms have lower absolute time indicators.

  • Assessment of a contamination level in the landfill's soil-like fraction within the boundaries of Volgograd's northern industrial hub

    The article presents the study results of a soil-like fraction contamination at a landfill located on the territory of the Traktorozavodsky district of Volgograd with heavy metals. The soil-like fraction's pollution level was assessed using a cumulative chemical pollution index (Zc) and its modifications. It was determined that the contamination levels with heavy metals are dependent on a used cumulative chemical pollution index modification. The use of the average geometric values of a cumulative chemical pollution index (Zc) is preferred for a pollution assessment of a soil-like fraction. Because the pollution level of a studied soil-like fraction was assessed as hazardous, its use as a recultivation material can only be permitted after a detoxification.The main pollutants in the soil-like fraction are cadmium, copper, and nickel.

  • Method of before-cutting calculating of the parameters of slab cutting based on the model of slab length linear shrinkage

    The technological instructions of most converter steel casting shops of modern metallurgical enterprises contain instructions for cutting slabs into to length using a fixed length increase factor that is directly dependent on shrinkage. This does not take into account the chemical composition of steel and the temperature of cutting slabs into exact lengths. At the same time, experience shows that for steels of different grades there is a discrepancy between the planned and actual values of the slab length. This problem required the creation of a mathematical model that makes it possible to determine the values of the linear shrinkage of the slab from cutting to complete cooling. On the basis of this model, a method for calculating the coefficient of increase in the measured length (cutting coefficient) of a slab during cooling from a cutting temperature to 30°C was developed. With the help of the proposed technique, the reduction in the length of slabs of grades 09G2S, 08PS, 22GU was studied. The paper also shows that the dependence of the cutting coefficient on the carbon concentration and temperature before cutting is linear. It was found that the effect of carbon concentration on shrinkage is significantly manifested only at high cutting temperatures (1000-1100°C). On the basis of the dependence obtained, a technical solution is proposed for automating the workplace of the operator of a gas cutting machine (CCT) of the shop for casting converter steel of a modern metallurgical enterprise.

    The purpose of this work is to implement a system for predicting electricity consumption in food production and to select the most appropriate method for training the forecasting model. In this work, a system was implemented for predicting electricity consumption based on streaming data, which receives them in "real time".

  • Markov model of relaxation and aging processes fibrous materials

    The concept of a fibrous material (hereinafter referred to as FM) as a soft structure formed by fiber elements surrounded by air and areas of fiber interaction on touch surfaces is proposed and substantiated. The fiber elements are in a deformed state. The deformation of the fibers is reversible, elastic-elastic. In the areas of interaction between the fibers, the forces of adhesion and dry friction act. The deformation of the fibers leads to the preservation of residual internal energy in the material. At low loads, the FM can change its state reversibly. At high loads, the structure of the interaction sites irreversibly changes. The processes of aging and degradation of FM are gradual irrevocable transitions from one group of states to others. The dynamics of these processes is statistical in nature. Therefore, a Markov model of state change has been developed in the form of several subsets of irrevocable subsets and one ergodic subset of states. At the qualitative level, the possibility of using the proposed model to describe the dynamics of FM aging processes and estimate the duration of this process, taking into account its probabilistic and statistical nature, is shown.

  • About the robustness of the relaxation time estimate

    The article considers the process of relaxation of fibrous material after the action of the load on it is completed. A simple model of the relaxation process is constructed in the form of an exponential function, which describes this process quite accurately. It is determined that the relaxation time estimates are robust with respect to the parameter distributions. The constructed relaxation models make it possible to estimate the magnitude of the residual relative strain corresponding to the plastic strain of the material.

  • Enrichment of a sequences set in the problem of blocks of symmetric Hadamard matrices searching

    The search for orthogonal and quasi-orthogonal matrices is considered as a sequence of setting initial conditions, choosing an implementation method, filtering a set of generated sequences. It is proposed to accelerate the search for matrices by pre-fixing their structure and filtering the generated sequences using the Fourier spectrum. Fixing the structure involves using the symmetry properties of the desired matrices. Filtering allows you to exclude sequences with explicit spectrum outliers when forming blocks of symmetric matrices.

  • Development of mathematical models for evaluating options for erection of inverted roofs

    The technology of erecting inverted green roof in exploited roofs is becoming increasingly relevant in modern construction in accordance with the principles of sustainable development and energy efficiency. However, the theoretical support for the design and construction of an inverted roof is still not enough – there is no comprehensive analysis of the roof structure, which would comprehensively take into account various criteria. The study developed mathematical models of three systematized groups of erection of inverted roofs (on supports, without supports and roof-parking) according to three enlarged criteria that comprehensively characterize their design: tecnological efficiency, resource efficiency and environmental friendliness. The results of the study make it possible to determine the optimal solutions for roofing at the stage of variant structural and technological design for their further improvement and application in construction practice.
