In the field of design and construction of transport facilities, in particular railway transport, Industry 4.0 technologies are gradually being used. In the transport industry, the concept of "digital twins" - a computer representation of a real object - has become especially widespread. The basis for "digital twins" are information models (TIM-models). At the present stage of the development of these technologies, the method of applying TIM for linear-broaching objects has not been worked out to the end. This paper considers the experience of designing railway infrastructure facilities using information modeling technologies in Russia and in the world. The concept of the methodology for the practical implementation of information modeling technology for railway infrastructure facilities at the design stage is proposed. The main limitations of the presented methodology and ways to overcome them are considered.

One of the methods for strengthening connections in steel trusses made of cold-formed welded profiles is the use of plate overlays. This article presents their influence on increasing the strength of connections according to the criterion of bearing capacity under compression. The investigations were conducted using the component finite element method. The obtained dependencies of the increase in bearing capacity are demonstrated based on the width and angle of the brace connection. An engineering methodology has been developed to assess the strength of the reinforced connection under compression, utilizing a traditional formula from Russian design standards with the substitution of the thickness of the chord by the equivalent thickness.

The article analyzes the shaping of buildings and structures in modern architectural practice. Form in architecture is primarily a means of expressing and translating concepts. It's also what ultimately fills and divides the space we live in. Form in architecture can have great symbolic and cultural significance and can transform a space for the better or for the worse. The simplest of the forms are known as primary forms. The main shapes include circles, triangles and squares. Each form can be created by a combination of basic forms. When rotated or expanded, basic shapes can create three-dimensional volumes known as basic bodies. In modern architectural practice, it is very common to resort to the use of complex shapes created using spatial curves. The task of the architect is a complete visual representation of such forms in drawings, as well as using modern software graphics packages. The article raises the problem of the correct interpretation of architectural forms formed by such spatial curves (using the Hilbert curve as an example).

Prompt adjustment of the composition of the asphalt concrete mixture is key to achieving high quality asphalt concrete. To enable easy and rapid adjustment of the asphalt concrete mixture formulation, predicting the properties of asphalt concrete (Marshall stability) is critically important. There are many methods for predicting the properties of asphalt concrete, but the choice of one method or another is a very pressing problem. This article proposes two methods for forecasting Marshall stability: forecasting using a multiple linear regression model and forecasting using an autoregressive model. To evaluate the forecasting accuracy of models, we use two metrics: average absolute error (MAE) and average absolute percentage error (MAPE). The results of the study show that the autoregressive model exhibits better forecasting results, especially the second-order autoregressive model.

When erythrocytes move along a narrow capillary, they take an asymmetric shape and roll along the capillary like a tractor caterpillar (tank - treading motion). The shape of the erythrocyte is approximated by a truncated cylinder and is uniquely determined by the diameter of the erythrocyte in the capillary, the volume and surface area of the erythrocyte. Other input parameters are the speed of the erythrocyte in the capillary, the frequency of rotation of the erythrocyte membrane, the charge of the erythrocyte, and the number of closed trajectories along which the charges move. It is assumed that the negative charges located on the membrane are equal in magnitude and distributed evenly over the membrane and move along closed trajectories together with the membrane. From the last parameters, you can find the number of charges on the erythrocyte membrane. According to the Biot-Savart-Laplace law, mobile charges generate a magnetic field in the surrounding space. Using computer calculations, the distributions of the magnetic field strength were obtained both near a single erythrocyte rolling along a narrow capillary, and near a capillary along which several erythrocytes move, at various values of hematocrit. The dependence of the maximum value of the magnetic field strength near the capillary on the hematocrit is found. In particular, it was shown that at a distance from the capillary equal to 8 capillary diameters, the maximum value of the magnetic field strength increases by a factor of 1.29–1.36 (depending on direction) with increasing hematocrit from 12.27% to 18.25%.

Yemeni cities are urbanizing so rapidly that there will soon be no room for green spaces. In this regard, there is a need to find solutions to provide citizens with the "green" infrastructure necessary for life and health. This article presents the results of an urban planning analysis of the study of existing territorial reserves suitable for the formation of the "green" frame of the city of Ibb, their capacity and structure.

Nitrogen oxides are one of the most common and toxic gaseous air pollutants of large industrial centers. The main difficulty of cleaning gas emissions is related to the dependence of the efficiency of the applied cleaning technologies on the NOx concentration, the frequency of emissions, the need for processing and/or disposal of products of interaction of nitrogen oxides with absorbers and regeneration of catalysts.

The article presents the results of a comparative analysis of practical calculations of driven and bored piles, which have similar geometric parameters and common geological conditions of construction sites. Taking into account the peculiarities of the use of these piles and the available experimental data, the paper analyzes the calculated values of their bearing capacity and gives an engineering assessment of the results of the calculation. The quantitative difference between the determined parameters of the bearing capacity of piles - friction along the lateral surface and frontal resistance, is clearly shown in the constructed diagrams. So, when using the standard values of the coefficients to determine the bearing capacity of piles, we have a significant excess of this parameter for driven piles. The need to use more gentle methods of driving piles to the design depth leads to the possibility of using the technology of arranging bored piles, which have a lower bearing capacity with the same parameters as driven piles. This feature should be taken into account in engineering calculations when selecting the optimal dimensions of bored piles.

In the article, the authors examine the problem of ensuring cybersecurity in the modern world in terms of the study of social practices. The implemented cyber attacks are analyzed, and the danger of hacker attacks is shown. With a fair amount of evidence, it can be stated that in the modern world, the risks associated with cyber intrusions can include the loss or disclosure of consumer data, theft or disclosure of intellectual property, as well as the loss of investors as a result of the theft of funds or a decrease in the market value of companies subjected to cyber attacks. It is concluded that cybersecurity is a constantly evolving landscape, and now there is an urgent need to constantly learn from both our own experience and the experience of other companies countering cyber attacks effectively, and it is also important that successful interaction with adversaries in cyberspace requires a constant pursuit of a tactical, operational and strategic initiative.
