Regulating the flow of liquids in pipe systems is carried out by different types of control valves. In the petroleum and chemical industries the most widely regulating valves straight-through type. However, in many constructions of valves of this type the problem of cavitation is not resolved completely. With the aim of reducing the negative impact of cavitation on the valve body and pipeline the authors have proposed and developed new designs of valves uniflow type organization of the fluid flow in internal cavities which helps to reduce cavitation effects.

The algorithm for computer simulation of x-ray images of mobile inspection systems is considered. Educational software which implements this algorithm is described. The goal is to develop the software that not only allows to view the final x-ray image but to design complex scene of 3d objects in interactive way and then use it to render the x-ray projection. The parameters required for precise and realistic x-ray image simulation are considered. They are the objects geometry and position, size and position of the detector and radiation source, the beam energy and other characteristics. Next, the algorithm and formulas for projection of 3D object onto detectors pane are given. Then, the algorithm for calculation of pixel color in greyscale is provided. It is based on traditional ray tracing algorithms like z-buffer used in computer graphics. The input data is the scene of complex 3D objects designed with built-in 3D editor in stereolithographic format. The file in stereolithographic format is used both to store the scene geometry and the characteristics of materials associated to its objects. The distance traveled by the beam inside the object is calculated using the ordered list of the mesh nodes of the object. As the basis of this algorithm is the law of attenuation for X-rays the attenuation coefficients stored in database are also used. Finally the picture of example 3D scene with hidden prohibited goods and rendered x-ray image with these goods visible are provided.

In the various methods of non-destructive testing, which working with the deformation fields, diagnostic accuracy is largely dependent on the intensity of structural noise caused by small-scale irregularities of building structures. In this paper we investigate the effectiveness of using a vector-scalar receiving systems for diagnostics of vibration and defectoscopy of building structures. Comparative analysis of the fluctuations of the scalar and energy flux components of the structural noise acoustic field was conducted using computer simulation. Suppression of this noise contributes to a more precise localization of defects in constructions. The study was conducted in view of the fact that the component of the stream of the acoustic field, for which the intensity of the structural noise is minimal, is measured indirectly, using two sensors: scalar and vector. It is shown that the use of energy flux component can increase the detection efficiency.
