The quantitative methods of risk assessment of technological processes of manufacture and the analysis of level of deficiency of products in the conditions of nondeterministic stochastic parameters are considered. The properties defining reliability of process are its controllability, stability and reproducibility. The main methodical device by assessment and the analysis of these properties are provisions of standards on statistical methods of quality control. In the analysis and assessment of risk it is necessary to consider that borders of a tolerance zone of parameters of products and control limits of reliability of technological processes of its production are always considered as acceptable (admissible) risk levels. Overcoming these levels is considered a negative consequence in the form of increase in level of deficiency of products and decrease in accuracy of technological processes of its production. Technical solutions are always bound to risk as it is never impossible to be sure of the end estimated result in advance. To check whether this risk was justified, it is possible always only after realization of technical solution and approach of an undesirable event. Therefore technical activity in principle can't be completely free from any risk, and it is always necessary to go on necessary and justified risk consciously.

The problem of calculating rods for vector perturbations consisting of five components is solved: 1. kinematic transverse vibrations of the left end; 2. kinematic transverse vibrations of the right end; 3. dynamic bending moment at the left end; 4. dynamic bending moment at the right end; 5 dynamic uniformly distributed lateral load along the length of the rod. The transfer functions from each disturbance are obtained separately. Using these functions, we obtained the elements of the spectral matrix for stationary random processes, taking into account their correlation. The most common types of processes are considered: exponentially correlated random process; process with latent periodicity (with characteristic frequency); truncated white noise. The formula for obtaining the dispersion of displacement of sections is shown.

The following work looked into sensitive analysis. Sensitive analysis is used to gather some data of analysed problem and further to reduce the time required to run a simulation. The work explains importance of the tool in field of mechanics engineering. The work briefly outline applications of the tool in industries. Also I-beam analysis was done to better understand influence of sensitive analysis. The results illustrated that by reducing nodes in the geometry of the I-beam the output values stay the same, but too much reduction will lead to incorrect results. The comparison of the two methods also took a place in this work, to see the correlations and discrepancy of the problem.

This work investigates squeal propensity problem arising during normal braking. Narrative of this work is suggesting complex eigenvalues method to found out tendency of squeal propensity. The work also provides a brief introduction of complex eigenvalues method and literature review of the problem, which shows study done in this field by other investigators. Frequencies and instability measurements were calculated. Afterward standard deviations were plot to found out whether squeal will be reduced or amplified, within chosen parameters. The results illustrated that by increasing the coefficient of friction the instability measurement will increase and reduce when hydraulic pressure increased.

A program has been developed that allows to evaluate the adhesion of paint coatings by means of analyzing images of the surface of coatings with delamination’s from the substrate to be protected. The program is written in Kotlin using JavaFX platform and is focused on tests carried out by the method of lattice cuts within the conditions of paint and varnish production. Through the work the evaluation of the area of the coating detachment from the surface to be protected is being held and the obtained result is scored by points according to the method of lattice cuts. The use of the program does not require a large computing power of the computer and reduces the time for obtaining the calculating results for one sample from 20 minutes to 3 seconds.

This article discusses the possibility of improving the environmental situation by changing the percentage ratio of metal and fiberglass fittings produced in the direction of increasing the latter. A comparative analysis of the calculation of the slab basement of 300-mm thickness was carried out, in the construction of which reinforcement made of steel (class A-500C) - and fiberglass were used. The results of the study led to the conclusion that, due to the recycling of plastic waste to produce this innovative building material, there is great savings for the manufacturer, and to this is added an improvement in the environmental situation in general, as the amount of industrial waste on the globe decreases without using environmentally friendly methods. destruction.

The following work is concentrated on the analysis of dynamic pressure distribution of a brake pad by using ANSYS software. A non-linear contact analysis of brake disc has been performed using Finite Element Method. The finite element model of disc and pads have been developed, and followed by an inclusive simulation of the contact analysis of disc brake system using ANSYS software. A detailed finite element model of a disc brake assembly was developed. Contact analysis was done to determine the pressure distribution, interfacial contact area and normal contact forces under both frictionless (μ=0) and frictional braking conditions. The influence of varying friction coefficients and the brake hydraulic pressure on squeal occurrence is examined. The results illustrated that the contact pressure distribution and the magnitude of normal contact pressures are far greater towards the leading edge of the pads comparing to the trailing edge.
