The article considers the issue of measuring and controlling the parameters of a high-voltage AC circuit using a Bragg grid. A model of a fiber-optic sensor based on the magnetostriction effect, the main component of which is a fiber-Bragg grating, is proposed. The 3D modeling of the magnetostriction process and the design of the block diagram are carried out.

The technique of the geometrical analysis and the analysis of force loading of combined drills with the replaceable multiface plates is offered in this work. This technique is allowing to determine geometrical parameters and specific force loadings in each point of a plate’s cutting edge taking into account its orientation in the drill case. Application of this technique allowed to establish the reasons of the drill’s low durability. The offered technique allows to design drills from the minimum unbalanced radial component of cutting force which increases its working capacity and the processed holes quality. New designs of combined drills both with two, and with three replaceable multiface plates are offered in this work. The durability of this new drills is increased by the plates mutual turn for the minimization of an unbalanced radial component of cutting force
