For this purpose, a modern method has been developed for determining the rational, from the point of view of the technical use of the path, the relationship between the actual operating conditions of the track, the periodicity of the overhauling schemes, and the characteristics of the track design elements. This will be the basis for creating methods and criteria for estimating and forecasting the operation of the track under the influence of the rolling stock, taking into account the durability and the level of safety integrity of the track and rolling stock interaction. <strong><em>Methodology</em></strong>. To achieve the goal, the principles of statistical mechanics, the theory of elasticity and the propagation of the wave process in describing the interaction of a path and a rolling stock are used. <strong><em>Findings.</em> </strong> The concept of detailing the conditions for the interaction of the rolling stock and the railway track as a way of increasing the competitiveness of the railway transport is proposed. To solve the problems of the need to establish interrelations between the technical and economic aspects of railway transport facilities, a concept is proposed to ensure the completeness of the safety of the railway track design during the service life. The criteria providing interrelation between technical and economic aspects are introduced and the algorithm of a method of an estimation of deformative work of a way on parameters of interaction of a way and a rolling stock is offered. <strong><em>Originality</em></strong><em>.</em> Modern requirements of the competitiveness of railway transport motivate the development of new approaches to ensure the interrelation between the technical and economic aspects of the operation of railway transport facilities. On the basis of such approaches, the cost of safe operation of the railway infrastructure is minimized taking into account the actual operating conditions. The paper proposes the basic principles of railway track work evaluation for the deformative work of the track under the action of the rolling stock, as the basis for classifying the technical conditions of the railway track corresponding to different degrees of reliability. <strong><em>Practical value</em>.</strong> One of the main factors of the impossibility of providing the interrelation between the technical and economic aspects of the operation of railway transport objects is the lack of knowledge about the relationship between the technical states of the elements and the railroad construction, the operating conditions and the periodicity system of the overhauls at the operational stage of its life cycle. This factor requires the introduction of new approaches, criteria and methods of evaluation. Therefore, the proposed concept of detailing the conditions for the interaction of the rolling stock and the railway track, the criteria for the deformative work of the elements and the design of the track, as well as the method for estimating the deformative work of the track in terms of the interaction parameters of the track and the rolling stock allow us to investigate the interrelation of the technical and economic aspects of the operation of railway transport facilities.

The problem of the lack of methodology for modeling the processes of СI functioning is solved, which is based on a single taxonomic basis of a comprehensive solution to the problem of assessing, analyzing and monitoring the level of readiness of cloud infrastructures. <strong><em>Practical value</em></strong>. The analysis opens up the possibility of using stochastic methods to ensure performance, resource scalability, energy saving and elasticity of management of the components of the cloud infrastructure. The considered methods of modeling can be applied to the selection of optimal architectural solutions in accordance with the established criterion of readiness of cloud infrastructures. V. Don O.

The production system will work efficiently, if its enterprises will operate stably. The purpose of the work is to investigate the stability of three separate enterprises and their behavior in crisis situations. <strong><em>Method.</em></strong> The output parameter characterizing the enterprise's performance is production capacity. When variable capital intensity of the main production assets of the enterprise, the production capacity is described by the system of two ordinary differential equations of the first order. To analyze the stability of the operation of an enterprise, it is necessary to obtain an analytical solution and a solution in the modeling system. A simulation scheme is formed and the user program is modeled. The simulation results are presented as graphs. In addition, there is a text editor that fixes the numerical data of the simulation results. <strong><em>Results</em></strong>. The analytical solution of the differential equation of production capacity with variable capital stock is obtained. A simulation scheme was created and graphs of production capacity of each enterprise were obtained. Crisis modeling is done for each enterprise. It is established that, despite the significant difference in the parameters of enterprises, their production capacity is not much different. For sustainable operation, enterprises must invest in the development of the main production. Enterprises can work in a single production system. <strong><em>Scientific novelty.</em></strong> A new approach to the formation of production systems is proposed. Before creating a production system, it is necessary to find out the possibilities of entering it: to check the stability of their functioning and behavior in crisis situations. <strong><em>Practical significance.</em></strong> The new approach will increase the efficiency of the production system.

In this paper, a decision support system is developed for entrants who cannot independently determine what they want to do in the future. <strong><em>Goal</em>. </strong>The development of a model and algorithm for training an intellectual system for assessing the professional abilities of university entrants, which is designed to assess their ability to acquire knowledge and skills in a particular industry.<strong> <em>Method.</em> </strong>Increasing the level of automation of the process of assessing the professional abilities of the applicant in the light of natural properties, mental activity and requirements for the profile of a specialist is proposed to be implemented through the introduction of the process of self-actualization of the intellectual system. The basis of the system is the fuzzy neural network Takagi-Sugeno-Kang. The development of input and formalization of output data, as well as the creation of a knowledge base of the system at this stage is left to the experts. <strong><em>Results.</em></strong> The research of modern methods and means of identification of abilities and achievements of university entrants was conducted. The approach to the development of an intellectual system for assessing the professional abilities of applicants in the choice of the direction of training is proposed. The structure of the system is described, which is intended to assess the possibilities of applicants to the acquisition of knowledge, which are necessary for successful training in the chosen specialty. <strong><em>Scientific novelty</em>.</strong> The input and output parameters of the Takagi-Sugeno-Kang neural network are investigated. The choice of the algorithm of network learning with the teacher is substantiated. The training algorithm is adapted to the decision of the task of assessing the applicant's ability to study in the specialties of the field of knowledge "Information Technologies". Minimization of error is proposed to use direct method of random search. <strong><em>Practical value.</em></strong> The model of the intellectual system of the estimation of professional abilities that is capable of processing the fuzzy data accumulated as a result of communication with the entrant is developed.

The method is very effective because it allows one to find the optimal control of the parameters of elastic-dissipative connections of the crew suspension as a function of estimating the phase coordinates. The main reason that hinders the widespread use of this method for linear dynamic systems with many degrees of freedom is related to the lack of software for solving the matrix non-linear differential equation of Riccati type, which is included in the algorithm of the method. The aim of the work is to develop modeling schemes for solving differential equations of Riccati type in the system of modeling MVTU 3.7 (modeling in technical devices). <strong><em>The technique.</em></strong> The simulation system of MVTU 3.7 allows studying transient processes in complex dynamic systems and analyzing the stability and stability of oscillatory processes along a phase trajectory. A mathematical model of a dynamic system is created - differential equations, after - a structural diagram of the model and in the environment of MVTU 3.7 a modeling scheme is constructed. MVTU 3.7 has a graphics editor, so the modeling scheme is assembled from library blocks, which is located on the working field. The block parameters, initial conditions, integration method, simulation time, solution accuracy, etc. are set. The simulation results are given in the form of graphs. In addition, there is a text editor that records the numerical data of the simulation results. To solve differential equations like Riccati, a structural scheme is not needed. <strong><em>Results.</em></strong> A simulation scheme was created for solving differential equations of Riccati type and correlation functions of the matrix of parameters of the optimal filter were obtained. The simulation of the oscillation process of the body of the 2TE10L locomotive and the filter was performed. It has been established that for the 2TE10L locomotive it is not required to create devices for actively controlling the parameters of elastic-dissipative links. Naukova novelty. A method for solving differential equations in the simulation system of MVTU 3.7 <strong><em>Practical value.</em></strong> The main reason that prevented the widespread use of the method of stochastic dynamic programming has been eliminated and has hampered the development of the theory of creating active suspensions of transport crews.

An additional means of enhancing the user's cognitive activity are automatic training system (ATS). They are a complex of software-hardware and educational tools that provide active individual assistance to the user. All people over the world are engaged in the development of such systems nowadays. Therefore, the task of creating CAD training is relevant. The hypermedia systems (GM - system) recently appear. It is a system that uses the most advanced technologies and is designed to increase the efficiency and intensify the processes of interaction between a person and the entire knowledge-related environment. The purpose of the work is to explain the basic concepts of hypertext and the functioning of the GM on the example of the training system «Architecture of civil and public buildings». <strong><em>Methodology of the research. </em></strong>The concepts of elements of the hypertext architecture are given: node, connection, system model, and hypertext database. A brief description of the hypermedia educational system «Architecture of civil and public buildings» is given, which contains information models of building layouts and is used in course design. The information model of a two-storey cottage has 12 modules designed for the planning of the building and its individual parts. <strong><em>Results.</em></strong> A hypertext database has been formed, including texts, graphics, calculations, reference data, available technical solutions, video information. <strong><em>Scientific novelty.</em></strong> A hypermedia training system «Architecture of civil and public buildings» was created, which contains information models of building layout. A new philosophy of presentation of the material has been proposed, which makes students learn the world differently and actively participate in the learning process. <strong><em>Practical significance. </em></strong>The training system is used in course design. Training is conducted by a lecturer. Thanks to the visualization, students have the opportunity to present more realistically not only individual, rather complex structural elements and components, but also the technology of construction of the building itself. For clarity, the training process uses educational films that allow students to be on the construction site without leaving the classroom. N. M. Ershova E. E. Litvin Copyright (c) 2021 N. M.

Litvin 2018-11-27 2018-11-27 106 46 51 10.30838/P.CMM.2415.270818.45.228 Artificial Neural Networks For Building Projects Cost Estimating http://smm.pgasa.dp.ua/article/view/151123 <strong><em>Purpose.</em></strong> To form an idea about the use of neural networks for estimating the cost of construction projects. Artificial neural networks are successfully used in solving numerous complex non-linear problems associated with forecasting, evaluation, decision-making, optimization, systematization, and choice in the fields of construction and its management. Artificial neural networks are particularly effective for solving complex problems, such as cost estimation problems, when the relationship between variables cannot be expressed by simple mathematical relationships. <strong><em>The technique.</em></strong> The parametric estimation method is a method in which the statistical evaluation between historical data and other variables is used for valuation. Using this method, you can get a more accurate estimate of the cost, due to the fact that this approach requires a lower level of detail compared to other methodologies. The level of accuracy of the assessment depends on the complexity, the amount of resources allocated for such work and the cost data embedded in the model. <strong><em>Results.</em></strong> Cost estimation is one of the most important factors in the management of construction projects. Any feasibility study for a project requires an accurate cost estimate in order to make the right decision about the future fate of the project. Scientific novelty. Improving cost estimation methods contributes to more efficient control of time and expenses in construction. <strong><em>Practical value.</em></strong> The use of artificial neural networks can potentially eliminate some of the main disadvantages of traditional evaluation methods. This gives great prospects for improving the reliability and validity of the method of parametric valuation. A. Zhuravel N. Velmagina Copyright (c) 2021 A. Zhuravel, N. Velmagina 2018-11-27 2018-11-27 106 52 57 10.30838/P.CMM.2415.270818.52.229 Problems of application and automation of methods of evaluation of risks of projects of objects reconstruction http://smm.pgasa.dp.ua/article/view/151127 <strong><em>The urgency of the problem</em>.</strong> Process of reconstructing objects faces many challenges and risks. The problem of risk assessment in construction is of paramount importance. This is due to erosion of an increasing number of modern structures with extraordinary structural features and loads, increasingly world-wide scales of reconstruction in difficult geotechnical conditions with a high degree of responsibility in reconstruction of capital construction objects. <strong><em>Purpose</em></strong><em> </em>- is to identify and consider application and automation of risk assessment of reconstruction projects. <strong><em>Methodology</em>.</strong> The problem of automation of risk assessment of reconstruction projects to date hasn’t been properly addressed. This is largely due to use of technical and economic substantiation of objects of construction and reconstruction of methods for risk assessment, which doesn’t fully take into account the specifics of construction activity of objects and peculiarities of their exploitation. Investigation of existing quantitative and qualitative methods of risk management allows us to conclude that they need to be developed and improved to be used for design, construction, reconstruction, repair of construction objects. This is especially true of risk management in construction activities. The reason for this is changing prices for building materials and construction, transportation and operation of construction machinery, machinery and equipment, transportation of workers to construction sites, travel expenses when performing work in other regions. The brief description of each method is given in article. Features of their application are analyzed and revealed. Problems of use of risk management methodology in the management of building projects are formulated. <strong><em>Conclusions.</em> </strong>To manage and automate risks of reconstruction projects, need to understand scope and objectives of software to use the appropriate automated risk management tool. The automated risk management tool doesn’t guarantee success, but serves main purpose of storing and analyzing identified problems, timely response. Definitely, each project is unique and requires adaptation and adjustment of selected automated tools for its practical implementation. This set of criteria should be defined for each specific project and consider the objectives of the implementation, the objectives of risk management process, the size of the reconstruction project and its needs, the ability to integrate with the required standards and methodologies.

Programs for designing technological processes in construction and design programs for the organization of construction and installation work allow the implementation of parts of technological projects, create technological documentation, solve problems in technology and construction. Compared with programs designed for design and construction, the design of construction technology, production of building materials and products, as well as the organization of construction have not received wide distribution and popularity in our country. We not only do not know foreign software products of this kind, but our own developments in this area are relatively small. <strong>The purpose</strong> of the work is to evaluate the importance of using modern software systems in the system of managing construction projects. Identify the weaknesses and strengths of the implementation of such complexes in the work of construction organizations. <strong>Statement of the main material.</strong> To solve the problems of management of construction projects, it is proposed to use a special class of software - a system for scheduling and monitoring the implementation of projects or otherwise a project management system. Consequently, these systems support the main processes of time, resource and cost planning and control based on network planning algorithms, the critical path method, the volume mastered method, and the like. The advantages of using the proposed project management system at the project implementation stage is that such systems allow you to store project targets in your project model and enter actual data on the progress of the project. Of course, the output calendar plan "floats". But the system allows you to see these deviations, assess their impact on the project as a whole, lose and choose the best response to the changes, if necessary, reschedule the completion of the project taking into account the new realities, promptly make changes to the project documentation. The project manager gets a tool in his hands not only to monitor the events, but also the ability to predict future events. At the same time, convenient, simple means of generating project reports make it easy to bring the necessary information on the project to all interested persons in the required form. <strong>Conclusions.</strong> The successful functioning of the construction management system, based on the use of software scheduling and control, depends significantly on the completeness and reliability of the source data. Therefore, it is proposed to use information systems that already function in various forms (accounting, budget systems, material accounting programs, etc.), within which much of the information already exists. It is also necessary to combine the information flows generated by different systems. E. Ishchenko I. Donenko A. Okhrimenko Copyright (c) 2021 E. Ishchenko, I. Donenko, A.

The existing Project Expert software package allows you to build a work schedule within the project, calculate performance indicators, balance the need for material and financial resources, meet the conditions for ensuring the resource and financial feasibility of the project. <br /> Recent scientific studies have supplemented the list of factors of feasibility by a factor of managerial realizability, which is not taken into account in the existing capabilities of this software package. The algorithm for calculating managerial feasibility parameters meets the capabilities of Microsoft Excel, so the task arose of creating a system for calculating project feasibility factors based on a combination of these two software products.

Lifting vessels (skips) represent massive vehicles weighing up to 80 tons with weight, skips moving at a speed of 8-11 m / s, have a length of up to 25 g and a cross-sectional area of up to 4 m, the volume of the skip body reaches up to 100.0 m3. When they move along the guide conductors of mine reinforcement along a vertical route, the skips begin to oscillate in a horizontal plane. Usually these oscillations are chaotic, and these oscillations are not dangerous in the absence of exceeding a certain amplitude limit. However, non-stationary oscillations of skips can go into the mode of vibration oscillations with energy accumulation and a rapid increase in the amplitude of oscillations under certain conditions for the initiation of movement of skips and the state of guide conductors. Under such conditions, the scop which is an elastic structure can enter into a state of resonant oscillations and carry out strong blows to the reinforcement. As a result, the reinforcement may collapse and an accident will occur. At this time in the practice of iron ore mining production there are no means of diagnosing the possibility of the occurrence of parametric resonance along the route of the lifting vessels along the shafts of mines. This has extremely negative consequences on the cause of the accident rate of the operation of the mine lifting systems. <strong><em>Results. </em></strong>The authors carried out relevant studies and for the first time developed an experimental version of a computer diagnostic complex that is able to detect, according to the results of measurements, potentially dangerous sections along the route of the lifting vessels as far as possible for the occurrence of parametric resonance on them. <strong><em>Practical value.</em></strong>Industrial tests of this complex were performed, which showed its reliability and validity of the measurement results on the basis of signs of the presence of areas in which vibrational vibrations were consistently repeated. This indicates the potential hazard of such areas. According to the test results, the authors continue to work on the improvement of the elements of this complex and the development of regulatory and operational documentation. S. О. Popov R. A.

However, from the point of view of economic efficiency, the relevant questions with regard to the particular reservoir (or reservoirs park) under the conditions of a particular petroleum depot require further investigation. Such a situation, which has developed in the practice of audits of the technical condition of RVS in service in Ukraine, requires the development of new mathematical models and methods that adequately reflect the essence of the problem of effective management of operational reliability of the facilities in question. <strong><em>Methodology</em></strong>.The article proposes a model of management of operational reliability of RVS based on the minimum of total operating costs, which is formulated in terms of the problem of nonlinear mathematical programming with binary variables. For the numerical realization of this model, a special algorithm based on the principles of constructing "greedy" algorithms was developed, using which economically rational intervals for carrying out technical inspections of the reservoir with a volume of 5000 m<sup>3</sup>, depending on the required level of operational reliability.. <strong><em>Conclusions.</em></strong> The proposed optimization model for managing the operational reliability of petroleum reservoirs makes it possible to form economically rational strategies for auditing their technical condition over a given service life. This model can be useful in the practice of planning revisions of the technical condition of the RVS both at the initial and at any other stage of the operation process. In addition, this model can be used in reliability problems both for individual reservoir and parks of such reservoirs. S. N. Semenets S. S. Nasonova Yu. E. Vlasenko L. Yu.

The purpose of this research is to develop numerical solution methods for computations the dynamic contact interaction of bodies simulating the elements of braking systems which can be realized on a personal computer. <strong><em>Methodology</em></strong>. Finite element modeling of the dynamic contact interaction of brake disk with a brake pad in the ANSYS / LS-DYNA software is proposed. It was assumed that the materials of the disc and the pad have elastoplastic properties. When creating a finite element grid, an eight-node volumetric element SOLID164 and a four-layer shell SHELL163 are used. <strong><em>Findings</em>.</strong> The allocation of stresses and plastic deformations on the contact surfaces of the brake disc and pad is determined for different mesh splitting of the finite elements. It is shown that extremes of plastic deformations are observed near the nodes of a larger finite element mesh. Dependences of the dimension of plastic deformation at different points of brake disk versus time are presented. It is shown that the first and second disk rotations make the main contribution to plastic deformations. <strong><em>Originality</em>.</strong> A method for the finite element solution of the problem of dynamic contact interaction of disc brake elements has been developed, which makes it possible to estimate the values of the maximum allowable deformations, and the forces of pressing the brake pad, in which plastic deformations will not be observed. <strong><em>Practical value</em>.</strong> The application of the developed method for solving the dynamic contact problem allows for simulation on personal computers that do not have high performance. The obtained results can be used in the development of new designs of disc brake elements with improved tribotechnical properties. V. A. Sukhanova Copyright (c) 2021 V. A.

To select a parameter, statistical data are used, obtained either as a result of observations or as a result of a reusable simulation model run and, therefore, methods of mathematical statistics are used to achieve the goal. A multiple regression model is considered for categorical factors, the levels of which are presented as dummy variables. <strong><em>Results.</em></strong> The application of the proposed method allows not only to assess the effect of the factors and carry out a pair-wise comparative analysis of their levels, but also to determine one level of each categorical factor that is the best under these conditions. <strong><em>Scientific novelty</em></strong>. The proposed method makes it possible to reduce the problem of choosing a category parameter of the system being modeled to a regression analysis problem with subsequent testing for optimality of the regression function. The final choice of the parameter as one of the category levels in the case of two factors is found as a solution to the problem of nonlinear programming. <strong><em>Practical significance</em></strong>. The choice of parameters in the preparation of the system model is one of the main stages. There is no particular problem when it comes to parameters that take numerical values: for this purpose, the methods of mathematical statistics for testing hypotheses of expectation and two-sample criteria are used. In the case when the factor has several categorical (non-numeric) levels, dispersive analysis is used to analyze their influence, which makes it impossible to solve the problem with parameter selection. The proposed method allows you to make such a choice. L. V. Tsybriy Yu. V. Valenko Copyright (c) 2021 L. V. Tsybriy, Yu. V.

The selection of weight factors of quadratic quality functional was substantiated, the dependence between parameters of design and weight factors was established, and the region of optimum values of design parameters was determined, the optimal filter of the process of gross product output of an enterprise was obtained. Modeling of the process of gross product output with optimum values of coefficients of growth and retirement of basic production assets. Production capacity is determined by the output at the achieved level of organization and production technology. The shape of production capacity graphs changes noticeably even with minor changes in parameters, i.e., capacity is sensitive to changes in the state of a firm. Design parameters are determined by the matrix method of dynamic programming. Based on the concepts of observability and controllability, it has been established that the process of producing a gross product of an enterprise is subject to management. By modeling and calculations, it was proved that using the matrix method of dynamic programming, one can obtain analytical dependencies for growth and retirement coefficients, as well as calculate the regions of their optimal values, i.e. The production capacity of an enterprise can be the main indicator of the characteristics of the life cycle of an enterprise. The technique should be used when designing the process of producing a gross product of enterprises, its implementation will reduce the design time and ensure the stability of the process of producing a gross product.

It depends, obviously, on the duration of all the works that are part of the project. The duration of each work for similar projects can be determined on the basis of statistical data, if any. However, in this case, the estimate of the duration of some work as an average of the available sample will be inaccurate. In projects of creating new technologies, there are many non-standard works, and in this case the determination of their duration is much more complicated. In this case, it is advisable to use the representation of the duration of the project as a random variable. Then the duration of the project will also be a random variable, which corresponds to the real situation. The purpose of this work is to determine the probability interval for the duration of the project, which allows considering the risks in its implementation. This problem is solved for projects consisting of a sequence of works, some of which are parallel to other works. <strong><em>The technique</em></strong>. Due to the fact that for this type of project its duration is a non-linear function of the duration of work, it is analytically impossible to determine the distribution function. Therefore, it is proposed to solve the problem numerically using the Monte Carlo method. The calculations are made in the environment of the spreadsheet processor MS Excel, which is widely used in engineering and economic calculations. <strong><em>Results</em></strong><em>.</em> For a particular project, a probabilistic simulation model has been developed, which allowed determining the project’s deadline for the implementation of the project, which with a high probability (95%) will not be exceeded. Scientific novelty. It is shown that it is possible to take into account the uncertainty of the timing of the project, using its simulation model. Thus, it is possible to take into account the risks associated with the implementation of the project as a whole and its parts. <strong><em>Practical value</em></strong> Knowledge of the reliable duration of the project allows the project organization to plan its work more efficiently: to better distribute the resources of the designers, to increase their productivity.
