The article is dedicated to the development of an automated system aimed at creating a program of works for the maintenance of road surfaces. The system is based on data from the diagnostics and assessment of the technical condition of roads, in particular data on the assessment of the International Roughness Index (IRI). The development of a program of works for the maintenance of road surfaces is carried out based on the analysis of the IRI assessment both in the short term and on the time horizon of the contractor's work under the contract. The system is developed on the principle of modular programming, where one of the modules uses polynomial regression to predict the IRI assessment for several years ahead. The analysis of the deviation of the predicted IRI value from the actual one is the basis for the selection of works included in the program. The financial module allows the system to comply with the budget framework limited by the contract and provides an opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of planning by calculating the difference between the cost of road surface maintenance and the contract value. Practical studies demonstrate that the system is capable of effectively and efficiently planning road surface maintenance works in accordance with the established contract deadlines.

One of the key directions in the development of intelligent transport networks (ITS) is the introduction of automated traffic management systems. In the context of these systems, special attention is paid to the effective management of traffic lights, which are an important element of automated traffic management systems. The article is devoted to the development of an automated system aimed at compiling an optimal program of traffic light signals on a certain section of the road network. The Simulation of Urban Mobility (SUMO) traffic modeling package was chosen as a modeling tool, BFGS (Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno) optimization algorithm was used, gradient boosting was used as a machine learning method. The results of practical research show that the developed system is able to quickly and effectively optimize the parameters of phases and duration of traffic light cycles, which significantly improves traffic management on the corresponding section of the road network.

The article presents the derivation of the resolving equations for calculating centrally compressed concrete filled steel tubular columns of circular cross-section taking into account the effect of lateral compression and physical nonlinearity. When deriving the resolving equations, forced deformations are also taken into account, which may include creep deformations, shrinkage, and temperature deformations. Finally, the problem is reduced to a system of three equations with three unknowns for the contact pressure between the shell and the concrete core p and stresses along z in concrete and steel. As equations establishing the relationship between stresses and instantaneous deformations, the relations of the deformation theory of concrete plasticity by G.A. Geniev are used, in which dilatational deformations of concrete are taken into account. The developed technique is implemented in the Matlab environment and tested on the experimental data of A.I. Sagadatov. The agreement between experiment and theory is good enough. The constructed model is based on the most general relations of solid mechanics and is free of empirical coefficients.

The relevance of the correct approach to the verification of modern electronic engine control systems of the car with regard to structural complexity, as well as the possibility of timely use of various diagnostic equipment to prevent engine failure, due to the timely detection of malfunction and reduce the costs associated with the operation and maintenance of road transport. The technology of diagnostics involves the mandatory verification of data received from the diagnostic system by measuring the corresponding physical parameters. The fault may be in the wires connecting the sensor and the control unit, in the control unit itself, in the connectors. To detect a fault, it is necessary to make a certain number of measurements of voltages, currents, and resistances and to establish the fault location using special diagnostic devices. On the basis of the obtained results, malfunctions of individual systems, assemblies, and aggregates are identified, then, taking into account indirect performance indicators, their technical condition is analyzed. In the end, it is possible to reliably assess the technical condition of the car, to detect and eliminate the causes of deviations from the norm.
