The main maintenance of a diversification of production as activity of subjects of managing is considered. being shown in purchase of the operating enterprises, the organizations of the new enterprises, redistribution of investments in interests of the organization and development of new production on available floor spaces. The most important organizational economic targets of a diversification of management are presented by innovative activity of the industrial enterprise.

Keywords: diversification of management, production diversification, financial and economic purposes of a diversification, technological purposes of ensuring flexibility of production

The physical model of the movement of liquids in capillaries proposed by Laplace and the Jurin formula obtained on its basis are in good agreement with the experiment in terrestrial conditions, but they are not applicable in zero gravity conditions. In this paper, it is experimentally shown that the capillary motion of a liquid is not caused by excessive Laplace pressure, but only by the forces of adhesion (Van der Waals forces) and cohesion. It has been experimentally shown that the phenomenon of capillary movement of a liquid over the surface of a solid body upon their contact occurs under normal conditions even in the absence of narrow slits or small-diameter cavities. The authors postulate a new hypothesis of the physical mechanism of the phenomenon of fluid movement on the surface of bodies, including in capillaries.

The article is devoted to the assessment of atmospheric air pollution in Rostov-on-Don for the period from 2019 to 2023. The assessment was carried out using a comprehensive indicator of atmospheric pollution for 5 pollutants (suspended solids, nitrogen dioxide, formaldehyde, sulfur dioxide and carbon monoxide). The main materials for the work were data obtained from the Environmental Bulletin of the Don and Yearbooks on the state of the atmosphere in cities in Russia. The dynamics of the city's atmospheric pollution over the specified period has been determined, as well as the territorial features of pollution and possible factors contributing to the current situation (the number of green spaces, the presence of enterprises, traffic flows). It has been established that the highest rates of atmospheric pollution are typical for the central part of the city, the most favorable environmental situation is in the east, and the western and northern parts are characterized by average pollution rates. A tendency of increasing atmospheric pollution has been established for the northern, central and western parts of the city, while the eastern part of the city is characterized by a gradual decrease in the content of pollutants in the atmosphere. The result of the work was the compilation of a map-scheme of atmospheric pollution in various parts of Rostov-on-Don.The main factors that determined the current environmental situation include: the volume of traffic load, the proximity of industrial zones and the level of landscaping of the territory.

This article examines an approach to designing the architecture of management decision support systems for entrepreneurial structures using artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. It is demonstrated that traditional decision-making methods fail to provide sufficient speed and justification for management actions in the face of high market volatility and information overload. A multi-level architecture is proposed, based on the principles of modularity, human-AI hybrid interaction, explainability, and incremental development. The system's structure, comprising four layers, is presented. Particular attention is paid to the role of the human-in-the-loop and the threshold control of decisions. Using small and medium-sized enterprises as an example, it is shown that the proposed approach enhances forecast accuracy, accelerates the management cycle, and fosters a culture of trust in analytics. The architecture ensures adaptability, transparency, and regulatory compliance, making it an effective tool for implementing AI in entrepreneurial structures.
