  • Selection of a methodological approach to the study of the psychofunctional state of a person controlling a dynamic object

    The article is devoted to the analysis of methodological approaches to the definition and assessment of the psychofunctional state of a person. In connection with the need to improve the reliability of human-machine systems, the study of the psychofunctional state of a person controlling a dynamic object is of scientific interest, since to create reliable human-machine systems it is necessary to take into account the reliability factors of technical means and the human factor as well. The analysis of methodological approaches showed that to solve problems dedicated to increasing the reliability of "human-machine" systems, it is advisable to use a systems approach that considers a person not as an independent subject, but as an element of the system. The systems approach has a broad methodological base, allows us to study the psychofunctional state of a person in dynamics.

  • New experimental studies of the mechanism of fluid movement in capillaries

    The physical model of the movement of liquids in capillaries proposed by Laplace and the Jurin formula obtained on its basis are in good agreement with the experiment in terrestrial conditions, but they are not applicable in zero gravity conditions. In this paper, it is experimentally shown that the capillary motion of a liquid is not caused by excessive Laplace pressure, but only by the forces of adhesion (Van der Waals forces) and cohesion. It has been experimentally shown that the phenomenon of capillary movement of a liquid over the surface of a solid body upon their contact occurs under normal conditions even in the absence of narrow slits or small-diameter cavities. The authors postulate a new hypothesis of the physical mechanism of the phenomenon of fluid movement on the surface of bodies, including in capillaries.

  • Assessment of the ecological state of atmospheric air in Rostov-on-Don

    The article is devoted to the assessment of atmospheric air pollution in Rostov-on-Don for the period from 2019 to 2023. The assessment was carried out using a comprehensive indicator of atmospheric pollution for 5 pollutants (suspended solids, nitrogen dioxide, formaldehyde, sulfur dioxide and carbon monoxide). The main materials for the work were data obtained from the Environmental Bulletin of the Don and Yearbooks on the state of the atmosphere in cities in Russia. The dynamics of the city's atmospheric pollution over the specified period has been determined, as well as the territorial features of pollution and possible factors contributing to the current situation (the number of green spaces, the presence of enterprises, traffic flows). It has been established that the highest rates of atmospheric pollution are typical for the central part of the city, the most favorable environmental situation is in the east, and the western and northern parts are characterized by average pollution rates. A tendency of increasing atmospheric pollution has been established for the northern, central and western parts of the city, while the eastern part of the city is characterized by a gradual decrease in the content of pollutants in the atmosphere. The result of the work was the compilation of a map-scheme of atmospheric pollution in various parts of Rostov-on-Don.The main factors that determined the current environmental situation include: the volume of traffic load, the proximity of industrial zones and the level of landscaping of the territory.

  • A systematic approach to identify problematic situations in the technical customer service

    A project is a single system, an interconnected network of elements: participants, resources, processes, and goals. This relationship is critically important for successful implementation by the technical customer service. Processes that are clearly defined and managed ensure consistency and efficiency. Therefore, project design and management requires a systematic approach that takes into account all relationships and strives to optimize each element to achieve a common goal. A system approach is a method that considers a problem or task in terms of its interrelationships and interactions of all elements of the system. In the context of a technical customer service, this approach can be particularly useful for project management, process optimization, and work efficiency improvement.

  • Development of a model and algorithms for managing public training in the field of public protection and civil defense of the Republic of Tajikistan

    • Abstract

    The purpose of developing the model and algorithms is to improve the management of public training in the field of public protection and civil defense of the Republic of Tajikistan as an integrated system that combines a set of interconnected elements that form its emergence and are determined by a set of functional properties, hierarchy and multiplicity of descriptions, as a complex organizational system [1]. The research uses methods of analysis and systematization. In particular, John Cotter's model of change is used, which allows structuring the process of managing the training of the population at different levels. Algorithms have been developed that take into account different social groups and their specific needs. This makes public education programs more adaptable and accessible to everyone. The obtained training algorithms can serve as a basis for improving public training management in the field of public protection and civil defense by integrating them into functional and infological models. The mathematical model of assessing the readiness of the population makes it possible to identify weaknesses in the training of the population and develop specific measures to eliminate them. The developed training management model and algorithms contribute to the formation of a structured system focused on the real needs of citizens. This includes their active participation in ensuring security, which, in turn, contributes to the creation of a more secure and secure environment in the country. The results of the study can be the basis for further development of the civil defense system in Tajikistan and improvement of training in the field of public protection and civil defense in emergency situations.

  • Method for Calibrating a Digital Model of Laminar-Turbulent Transition in Natural Convection Flows Around Steel Panel Radiators

    Modeling natural convection from steel panel radiators presents a significant scientific and technical challenge. When heating the radiator's vertical surface, a boundary layer of warm air forms and ascends along the wall. Flow remains typically laminar in the lower section, but as the boundary layer develops, it becomes unstable and transitions to turbulence. Beyond temperature head, transition conditions depend critically on heater geometry. Height, panel count, and vertical finning elements directly impact convective flow formation, where optimized geometry promotes early laminar-turbulent transition and intensified convection. While heat transfer is conventionally evaluated through dimensionless correlations (with Grashof numbers near 10⁹ serving as critical transition thresholds for vertical surfaces, corresponding to ~70°C temperature head at 0.5–1 m height), real-world radiator operation maintains laminar flow in lower zones with upper-height transition to turbulence – a process indeterminable via correlation methods. This study proposes a CFD simulation methodology calibrated against laboratory tests conducted per GOST R 53583-2009, enhancing computational result reliability. The calibrated numerical model ensures high-precision prediction of integral heat emission characteristics. CFD implementation enables preliminary radiator behavior analysis without physical prototyping through parametric variation of geometry and thermal properties. The model is readily parameterized by panel dimensions, finning configuration, and material/medium properties, ensuring computational repeatability across configurations. The proposed calibration method (achieved by imposing experimentally measured heat flux values per GOST R 53583-2009) enhances accuracy in predicting radiator's integral performance metrics and improves model-experiment alignment. This approach guarantees computational reproducibility and flexibility in simulating diverse designs (panel sizes, fin arrangements, materials). Validation challenges persist: Absence of experimental temperature/velocity fields complicates mesh sensitivity analysis, while single-dataset calibration risks model overfitting. Nevertheless, this methodology proves strategically valuable for transitioning toward digital certification of heating devices, as it substitutes physical testing with numerically derived integral parameters of comparable accuracy.
