The object of the study is the method of evaluating the durability of the cutting tool, which evaluates the rationality of the periodicity of changing the cutting tool during turning on the basis of the indicator of vibration. To form a signal for the analysis the registration of vibroacoustic vibrations during the processing of parts by the device for measuring noise and vibration VShV-003-M2 takes place. To check the transfer function used in the methodology the construction of the model of dynamic system of the lathe is made. The construction of autocorrelation function and amplitude-frequency response of the dynamic system is used to estimate the durability according to the oscillation index. A series of tests to estimate tool life under recommended cutting modes are made, and the results are corrected according to the obtained results. Record of files for the analysis was made in a wave-file format. Analysis of the results made it possible to make recommendations for tool change intervals for better control of tool and labor rationing. Knowledge of the durability of cutting tools is necessary for timely replacement of cutting inserts and control of losses in production.

When conducting quality control, it is necessary to consider the quality of both each individual element of the facade and the quality of the hinged facade as a system. When structuring the review of tools for instrumental quality control of curtain facade systems, their application should be considered according to controlled parameters, which can be divided into two groups. The quality control group of facade system elements combines methods and tools used in quality control of building materials and does not require the contractor to know about the principles of the hinged facade system. The quality control group of the device (assembly) of the hinged facade consists of operations to determine the quality of the operability of the hinged facade system. This group is entirely based on the idea of the work of the hinged facade as a single system. Based on the results of systematization and generalization of data, it was concluded that the current regulatory documentation regulates the use of instrumental control tools, leaving aside the issues of organization that come to the fore when quality control of the hinged facade of a construction object as a whole, when there is a task of choosing and using several tools of instrumental control at the same time. It is these questions that should be the subject of further research.

The work is devoted to ensuring the completeness of mixing of gas coolants into a direct-acting heat exchanger by optimizing the geometry of the mixing chamber, in particular the addition of a funnel. Four funnel configurations in the range of 45°-180° are considered. The problem is solved in a stationary formulation by numerical simulation in the OpenFOAM environment. A 14-fold increase in the uniformity of mixing is shown when using a 45° funnel compared to a cylindrical mixing chamber.

The article presents a feasibility study of the use of the izoproflex-115A pipeline based on thermal and hydraulic calculations of existing thermal networks in Saransk. When modeling two variants (pipe networks made of steel in polyurethane foam insulation and polymer pipelines "izoproflex-115") of pipelines, the same technique was used. Analysis of the calculation results of the longest section of the heat network showed that ISOPROFLEX pipes, on average, have a three-fold capacity reserve in relation to a steel pipe. The use of modern izoproflex-115A pipeline systems will ensure high-quality and uninterrupted heat supply to consumers, increase energy security and energy efficiency, reduce the accident rate of heat supply systems and improve the financial performance of heat supply organizations.

The species diversity was studied and the ecological state of the tree and shrub vegetation on the territory of one of the oldest and largest parks in Rostov-on-Don - Maxim Gorky Park of Culture and Recreation was assessed. An area of 33,000 m2, located in the north-eastern part of the park, was allocated for study. 17 species of woody and shrubby plants were identified in the study area, among which the park-forming species are European linden (Tiliaeuropaea), Evergreen cypress (Cupressussempervirens L.), Common pine (the vital state of plants,the nature of the herbage closability, woody and shrubby plants, grassy lawn covering, urban park landscapes, the Park of Culture and Recreation named after Maxim Gorkiyabsence of signs of weakening (55%), and dead wood is only 1%. The quality of the lawn covering is quite low, and the soil under it is characterized by high compaction. Basically, the nature of the closure of the herbage is mosaic–group, and the projective coverage reaches maximum values (80%) for the entire study area in the early spring. Measures to preserve and optimize the park area are proposed.

To assess the quality of the road surface, there are many systems that work on the basis of specific algorithms, including image segmentation methods. Time complexity and classification accuracy are two key indicators when evaluating the effectiveness of a particular algorithm. In this article, the following image segmentation methods are used as the analyzed methods: k-means clustering, Linear clustering, Adaptive thresholding, Global thresholding. Based on the methods described in the section "Methodology of experiments", the "Global thresholds" method has the best indicators of classification accuracy and time complexity (38.2% - classification accuracy; time complexity is linear (other methods have the same type of complexity, however, GT has much less absolute time indicators).

Road surface quality assessment is one of the most popular tasks around the world. To solve it, there are a large number of systems that work using certain algorithms, including methods of morphological image processing. One of the key criteria for the effectiveness of an algorithm is its time complexity. The following approaches of morphological processing is considered in the article: Dilation, Erosion, Morphological Gradient, Morphological Smoothing. Photos of the road surface of various conditions were used as the material for the study. Based on the proposed methodology of the experiment, it turned out that each of the selected algorithms has a linear time complexity, but the "Dilation" and "Erosion" algorithms have lower absolute time indicators.

The article presents the study results of a soil-like fraction contamination at a landfill located on the territory of the Traktorozavodsky district of Volgograd with heavy metals. The soil-like fraction's pollution level was assessed using a cumulative chemical pollution index (Zc) and its modifications. It was determined that the contamination levels with heavy metals are dependent on a used cumulative chemical pollution index modification. The use of the average geometric values of a cumulative chemical pollution index (Zc) is preferred for a pollution assessment of a soil-like fraction. Because the pollution level of a studied soil-like fraction was assessed as hazardous, its use as a recultivation material can only be permitted after a detoxification.The main pollutants in the soil-like fraction are cadmium, copper, and nickel.

The technological instructions of most converter steel casting shops of modern metallurgical enterprises contain instructions for cutting slabs into to length using a fixed length increase factor that is directly dependent on shrinkage. This does not take into account the chemical composition of steel and the temperature of cutting slabs into exact lengths. At the same time, experience shows that for steels of different grades there is a discrepancy between the planned and actual values of the slab length. This problem required the creation of a mathematical model that makes it possible to determine the values of the linear shrinkage of the slab from cutting to complete cooling. On the basis of this model, a method for calculating the coefficient of increase in the measured length (cutting coefficient) of a slab during cooling from a cutting temperature to 30°C was developed. With the help of the proposed technique, the reduction in the length of slabs of grades 09G2S, 08PS, 22GU was studied. The paper also shows that the dependence of the cutting coefficient on the carbon concentration and temperature before cutting is linear. It was found that the effect of carbon concentration on shrinkage is significantly manifested only at high cutting temperatures (1000-1100°C). On the basis of the dependence obtained, a technical solution is proposed for automating the workplace of the operator of a gas cutting machine (CCT) of the shop for casting converter steel of a modern metallurgical enterprise.
