Improvement of metrological characteristics of the antenna system using smart angle sensor

Abstract: Techniques for the improvement of the metrological and functional characteristics of the tracking antenna system due to designed optoelectronic smart angle sensor with built-in functions of detection and compensation of errors in mechanical constructions is considered. Performance characteristics and results of experimental research of dual-channel optoelectronic angle sensor are described.

Diagnostic features of relief formations on the nanostructured titanium VT1-0 surface after laser shock-wave treatment

Abstract: A new class of diagnostic features for conducting morphological analysis of relief formations induced by laser shock-wave treatment on the surface of the nanostructured titanium VT1-0 alloy is proposed. They are the coefficients of series expansions of statistical estimates for the orthogonal basis of Chebyshev, Laguerre, Kravchuk discrete polynomials and trigonometric functions. Based on the criterion of the minimum number of the diagnostic features in the above-mentioned bases, the Chebyshev one was selected as the most appropriate to solve this problem.

Trade-off optimization in the problem of software system architecture choice

Abstract: The problems of multi-criteria choice of software system architecture are discussed, connected with definition of criterion function. For this the universal scalar convolution is offered to apply, where the priority of quality criteria depends on its proximity to the limitation. Optimization model application for problem of reengineering or directed choice of software architecture is discussed too.

Investigation of the process of bee pollen comminution

Abstract: The quality of modern food products may be improved by adding bee pollen (PB) to the composition. The important stage of the process of improvement of an existent product or creation of new one is the optimization of the technology of bee pollen preparation, especially, comminution. The aim of the researches was to investigate the process of comminution and to optimize technological parameters for receiving high quality powder, used as a component of sour-milk beverages and other products. The study elucidates the influence of a series of factors on the size of particles and quality of bee pollen powder by technological and phytochemical properties. Using the visual method with modern optimal devices, it was established, that pollen can be comminuted to the particles size 120–8 mcm. The dispersity degree of received powder caused changes of the phytochemical activity and technological parameters of a product. The method of colorimetry determined that the content of flavonoids in pollen increases by 53 % at communiting to particle sizes 15±5 mcm and decreases at the higher dispersity. The screen method determined the homogeneity of the material, processed by three types of comminutors and substantiated the use of a mill-pestle in the technology of bee pollen comminution as the most effective comminutor. Using the plan of the complete factor experiment of the third kind, there were studied the surfaces of a response of the dependence of pollen powder homogeneity on the comminutor work intensity, mass and term of the material processing. Technological parameters of pollen comminution by a mill-pestle were optimized: working body speed 70–80 turn/min (min −1 ), processing duration – 6 min, batch mass – 150 g.
