  • A decision support model for forest fire response in mountainous areas using fuzzy logic

    This paper presents a decision support model for responding to forest fires in mountainous areas using fuzzy logic. The research methods include the Mamdani method for constructing a fuzzy inference system, the use of linguistic variables to describe environmental conditions and risk factors, and the formation of a rule base based on expert knowledge. The developed model implements the principles of situational management and enables determination of the fire danger level, selection of extinguishing methods, response tactics, and optimal resource allocation. Its practical significance lies in the potential application of the model in decision support systems of the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations for operational planning and forecasting during forest fire suppression in challenging mountainous conditions.

  • Optimization of the support unit of a glued laminated timber frame structure using polymer composite plates

    This article examines numerical modeling of a support joint in a glulam frame structure. Traditionally, hinge joints in frame structures have been constructed as a system of welded plates. In chemically aggressive environments, the use of steel is difficult. Replacing steel elements with polymer composite plates can ensure the required service life. The plates are made using a polyester or acrylic binder with increased resistance to aggressive chemical environments. Composite plates are much lighter than metal, making installation quicker, simpler, and easier, significantly reducing labor costs. Composite fiberglass profiles are easy to process—they can be sawed, drilled, milled, and easily assembled with bolts and adhesives.

  • Modeling of a project network schedule under resource constraints

    Construction work often involves risks when carrying out complex sets of tasks described in the form of network schedules, in particular, risks of violating tender deadlines and project costs. One of the main reasons for increased project risks is a lack of resources. The main objective of this study is to develop a methodology for modeling network schedules under resource constraints, taking into account the stochastic influence of risks on project completion deadlines. The paper analyzes tools for modeling project schedules; describes a mathematical model for estimating project cost based on a network schedule under resource constraints; proposes a method for modeling a network schedule in the AnyLogic environment; develops an algorithm for modeling parallel branches of a project schedule under resource constraints; and describes a method for modeling a network schedule for project work. Testing was conducted based on a network schedule for a project to construct a contact line support. It has been shown that the method allows for obtaining probabilistic estimates of project deadlines and costs under conditions of risk and limited resources. The methodology can be applied to various projects described by network schedules and will allow solving a number of practical tasks: optimizing resources allocated for project implementation, taking into account the time and cost of the project, analyzing risks affecting project implementation, and developing optimal solutions for project risk management.

  • Genetic search as a tool for overcoming linguistic uncertainty

    This article describes a developed method for automatically optimizing the parameters of an intelligent controller based on an adaptive genetic algorithm. The key goal of this development is to improve the mechanism for generating an intelligent controller rule base through multiparameter optimization. The genetic algorithm is used to eliminate linguistic uncertainty in the design of control systems based on intelligent controllers. A unique algorithm is proposed that implements a comprehensive optimization procedure structured in three sequential stages: identifying optimal control system parameters, optimizing the structure of the intelligent controller rule base, simulating the automatic generation process, and then optimizing the intelligent controller parameters. Implementation of this approach optimizes the weights of fuzzy logic rules and the centers of the membership functions of linguistic variables.

  • Development of a fine-grained concrete mix based on fine sand, modified with a complex three-component additive

    A fine-grained concrete mix based on fine sand and modified with a complex three-component additive including metakaolin, a superplasticizer, and a hardening accelerator has been developed. The study was conducted using the Box-Behnken factorial design and mathematical modeling in the R environment. The obtained values of compressive strength, flexural strength, and average density exceed those of the control composition. The research results were analyzed for reliability, descriptive statistics were obtained, and their correlation analysis was performed. A quadratic regression model of compressive strength was constructed and three-dimensional surfaces for the studied response functions were visualized. It was established that the synergistic effect of the complex additive is due to matrix compaction, a decrease in the water-cement ratio, and acceleration of the hydration process. The results confirm the possibility of using fine-grained concrete modified with a complex additive for the manufacture of prefabricated and monolithic structures, additive technologies, and have the potential to reduce the carbon footprint.

  • Representation of the aggregated structure of texts using a generalized context-dependent graph-theoretic model

    The paper discusses issues related to the use of graph-theoretic models in text analysis. One of the tasks is to aggregate such models to identify more "simple" graphs, the vertices of which correspond to subsets of the vertices of the original model, and the edges reflect the "strong connections" between the vertices. Using the example of a Russian folk tale plot, it is shown how to build an aggregated model with a given threshold of significance and present it for further analysis. To conduct the experiments, a set of graph-theoretical models for fairy-tale plots from the collection of A.M. Afanasyev was built using the Folklore information system, where the graph aggregation module was improved.

  • Mathematical modeling of the security assessment of a penal system facility based on a modified genetic algorithm

    The article deals with the problem of quantifying the security of objects of the penal correction system based on mathematical modeling. The authors propose a modified genetic algorithm in which the traditional fitness function is replaced by a mechanism of "virtual movement" of individuals in a discrete space, which allows taking into account both the individual characteristics of safety measures and their cumulative impact. A step-by-step example of applying the algorithm to choosing the optimal set of protective measures based on expert assessments based on several criteria is given. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach for solving multi-criteria tasks of assessing and improving security in conditions of uncertainty and the absence of an explicit analytical relationship between system parameters.

  • A Review of Verification Methods for Zero-Knowledge Proof Protocols

    Information technologies have become increasingly used in various fields, be it document management or payment systems. One of the most popular and promising technologies is cryptocurrency. Since they require ensuring the security and reliability of data in the system, most of them use blockchain and complex cryptographic protocols, such as zero-knowledge proof protocols (ZKP). Therefore, an important aspect for achieving the security of these systems is verification, since it can be used to assess the system's resistance to various attacks, as well as its compliance with security requirements. This paper will consider both the concept of verification itself and the methods for its implementation. A comparison of methods for identifying a proof suitable for zero-knowledge protocols is also carried out. And as a result, a conclusion is made that an integrated approach to verification is needed, since choosing only one method cannot cover all potential vulnerabilities. In this regard, it is necessary to apply various verification methods at various stages of system design.

  • Technological structure and organization of a comprehensive process of instrumental monitoring of buildings adjacent to new construction

    Instrumental monitoring during construction in dense urban areas plays a particularly important role due to the increased risks to surrounding buildings and infrastructure. Thorough planning, effective risk management, and collaboration with stakeholders can help minimize the negative impacts of construction in dense urban areas and ensure the safety of people and surrounding buildings. Monitoring is not only focused on ensuring the safety of the construction site, but also on protecting the supporting structures during the construction of new foundations. Excavation near existing foundations can cause loads that lead to deformation and even collapse of neighboring buildings.

  • A Model for representing weighted multi-label dependencies for detecting rare anomalous events in information security tasks

    This paper proposes a novel model of computer network behavior that incorporates weighted multi-label dependencies to identify rare anomalous events. The model accounts for multi-label dependencies not previously encountered in the source data, enabling a "preemptive" assessment of their potential destructive impact on the network. An algorithm for calculating the potential damage from the realization of a multi-label dependency is presented. The proposed model is applicable for analyzing a broad spectrum of rare events in information security and for developing new methods and algorithms for information protection based on multi-label patterns. The approach allows for fine-tuning the parameters of multi-label dependency accounting within the model, depending on the specific goals and operating conditions of the computer network.

  • Digital control of double synchronization of a dual-rotor vibration unit

    The paper investigates the specifics of the digital implementation of a rotor synchronization control algorithm for the SV-2M two-rotor vibration unit. The influence of the sampling period on the stability of the synchronous mode is evaluated using computer simulations in MATLAB/Simulink, with time quantization and zero-order hold delay explicitly accounted for. A comparative analysis of the digital and analog versions of the algorithm has been performed. The boundary values of the discretization periods for different values of the given total energy of the system have been determined. The obtained results confirm the applicability of the proposed approach for digital control systems of vibratory equipment.
