The process of cavitation is one of the reasons for the premature wear of pumping equipment components. Elements of a pumping wheel are subject to the greatest wear. In addition, cavitation causes undesirable effects such as vibration and noise. In order to reduce cavitational damage and increase the service life of pumping equipment, the authors of this article propose to install a special-shaped flow divider at the pump inlet that breaks the flow entering the pump into separate jets of a certain shape and structure.

The article considers the solution of the problem of determining the dynamic characteristics of the relative humidity sensor, the mathematical model of which was based on the first order aperiodic link. The solution algorithm consists in minimizing the value of the standard mismatch of the approximating function and the set of experimental data. The results of processing experiments with the DHT-22 temperature and humidity sensor are presented. The sensor was placed three times in a medium with high humidity, which allowed to obtain an average experimental transient response. The period of measurement and registration of humidity and temperature was 1.5 seconds. The proposed method of calculating the dynamic parameters of the sensor allowed to determine the value of the time constant and the gain of the aperiodic link for the sensor under study. The obtained dynamic characteristics can be used to form an inverse transfer function for the humidity sensor.

The object of research in this article has become a rather important topic of describing such a statistical method as analysis of variance. The fact is that many software products consider, basically, a case when the number of factors is not more than two. With the exception of such a powerful product as a SPSS Statistica. The same can be attributed to scientific works, where the method of analysis of variance with a large number of factors is very rarely considered and described (often, when it comes to multifactorial analysis of variance, two factors are also considered). Therefore, an analysis was made of the existing mathematical apparatus, a proprietary idea was proposed for the implementation of this statistical method, and was created a software product to demonstrate how its work.

Innovative organizations have begun to use fixed-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for healthcare delivery since they can fly faster and provide a proper solution in locations with difficult access or unsafe to human life. Moreover, they assure greater utility and better cost effectiveness than manned aircraft. However, the wind affects both the longitudinal and the lateral variables of the fixed-wing UAV contributing to its nonlinear and due to such external disturbances the UAV can fail its mission. Therefore, this review paper discusses on effects of wind disturbances on navigation of fixed-wing UAV. Full nonlinear equations of motion by including the effects of the wind on the fixed-wing UAV performance are developed. Also an overview of different approaches is presented.

It is shown that the production conflict, both structurally and dynamically strictly determined within the paradigm of structural management of production. The system essence of the production conflict determines the need to involve methods and tools of system analysis, in particular, the method of cognitive analysis. The model of management of the production company is offered. The model is based on a distributed combination of positive feedback loops. The model allows to organize a continuous cycle of self-development. This is achieved by self-locking conflicts in the underlying loop factors. The principal difference of the model is the formation of two additional "positive" contours. These contours cover the tangent base contour. The formal increase in the number of growth accelerators increases the system's ability to overcome conflicts in the basic circuit. The dual-accelerator circuit is a guarantee of sustainable control . The control model demonstrates the growth of causal integration and the level of self-determination in comparison with the initial potential.

The article focuses on the possibility of using neural networks to increase the level of the graphic component of virtual reality. An image quality evaluation method using three criteria is examined: photorealism of image macrostructure, photorealism of image microstructure, as well as the level of its distortion. Its implementation relies on the VGG neural network, trained in a variety of images, evaluated by the presented criteria. After metric realization is complete, a method is proposed that has to do with automatic selection of parameters and contents of the virtual scene with metric maximization in the images obtained from different angles. Next, a method is considered and evaluated, where rendering algorithm is replaced by a neural network. At which point, methods to improve the quality of the final image are suggested. Based on the results of the experiments, Wasserstein generative adversarial networks (WGAN), distinguished by the highest level of image quality, are singled out. Further on an option is proposed to improve this approach in terms of speed and quality of the result that consists of breaking up one large network into an ensemble of smaller ones. It should be emphasized that each network of the ensemble processes only part of the image relating to one type of segment. Next, it is prudent to consider the possibility of applying this algorithm in real time, to which end optimization of neural networks is conducted to the detriment of quality, but with a significant increase in execution speed.

The article considers the modeling of wind impact on the objects of parametric architecture. To determine the optimal shape of the surface, the evolution of the analytical surface shaping, formed by congruent curves in parallel planes, obtained by the rotation of the reulault triangle with a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation, is studied. Based on the results of a numerical experiment using the finite element method, the rational analytical surface of the object of parametric architecture, resistant to wind, is determined. The dynamic characteristics of the object of parametric architecture are obtained. Recommendations are given to clarify the methods of determining the wind load for buildings and structures of complex geometric shape.

In this paper we consider the problem of choosing an acceptable system of collection, transmission and display of information of the coastal control center of Autonomous uninhabited vehicles (ANPA) in the theory of decision-making. In the case of an exponential decision-making system, which provides a hypothesis about the acceptability of the system of collection, transmission and display of information, it is necessary to determine the total time of semantic identification of forest topology "A" - graph [1] (the principle of additivity). This requires additional test experiments or known data on the time of understanding the semantics in specific situations. If this time is less than the normative, or more precisely the time of compromise, then such a system of collection, transmission and display of information can be recommended for operation in an exponential decision-making system. Otherwise, such a system cannot be recommended to the decision-maker of the type under discussion.
