The relevance of the topic of the article is due to the fact that currently there is no linking of the calendar plan to the schedule for the development of capital investments. The principle of constructing a schedule for the development of capital investments is proposed, which ensures the uniformity and proportionality of the use of financial resources. Schedules for the development of capital investments are constructed, each schedule for the development of capital investments corresponds to an image describing the change in the absolute value of the profitability of the investment and construction project. The use of a mathematical apparatus describing the movement of a material point can be used in the development of investment schedules and calendar plans for construction. The construction of construction schedules in the section of the construction organization project based on investment schedules will have a significant impact on the economic efficiency of investment projects.

The effect of impurities on the conductivity of the allotropic modification of phosphorene (ε-P) was studied. The quantum chemical research package Quantum Espresso was used for calculations. The study was conducted on the basis of simulation modeling. Three-dimensional structures are modeled using Quantum Espresso. The work adapted the model for two-dimensional ε-phosphorene by choosing a unit cell vector so large that interaction between the layers was possible. It has been shown that S has the smallest changes. Significant changes in conductivity can be achieved by placing F in various configurations relative to the crystal lattice, which can be actively used to create differetnt types of detectors.

The paper analyzes and shows the inadequacy of the technology for repairing production wells by rolling out a corrugated metal patch with a dornating device, which consists in premature violation of the tightness of the well due to low strength of the connection. A technology and a hydromechanical device for additional fastening by radial extrusion of spherical cavities in the metal of the plaster are proposed. As a result, a drag force is generated in the cross-section of the fastener, which prevents shear loads from axial forces. Strength calculations have shown that for better performance of the metal patch, it is advisable to increase the shear resistance force by increasing the number of punches or technological transitions of fastening.

Fuel efficiency of dump trucks is affected by real world variables such as vehicle parameters, road conditions, weather parameters, and driver behavior. Predicting fuel consumption per trip using dynamic road condition data can effectively reduce the cost and time associated with on-road testing. This paper proposes new models for predicting fuel consumption of dump trucks in surface mining operations. The models combine locally collected data from dump truck sensors and analyze it to enhance their capabilities. The architectural design consists of two distinct parts, initially based on dual Long-term Short-Term Memories (LSTMs) and dual dense layers of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). The new hybrid architecture improves the performance of the proposed model compared to other models, especially in terms of accuracy measurement. The MAE, RMSE, MSE and R2 scores indicate high prediction accuracy.

The article discusses the development of a software module for controlling electric drives as part of the ModBus industrial network, which was intended for modernize the automated control system of the production line section of the "Zarya" bakery plant. Frequency converters are used to change the speed of motors in the available control system, and the operator has to manually control each converter. The rotation speed of the motors is controlled by setting the frequency value, which is inconvenient for the operator. It is impossible to simultaneously change the operating speed of all production line equipment with this control method, which leads to mismatch in equipment operation. To solve this problem, a network is being built based on the ModBus protocol, based on available equipment. The article describes the main peculiarities of the ModBus protocol, developed method, that allows the operator to specify the required system run time instead of the frequency value for each motor, and developed software module, that implements the proposed method.
