  • Automated mapping of ORM2-diagram basic elements into OWL2-ontology

    An ontology is a formal, explicit specification of a shared conceptualization of some fragment of domain, which is understandable for both people and intelligent systems. However, it is rather complicated for a domain expert with limited ontology expertise to create complete and consistent ontology, which could answer required competency questions. In this paper we consider the approach with the use of ORM2-diagram as an intermediate model for creating an OWL2-ontology. This approach requires specialized conversion rules allowing to map ORM2-diagram into OWL2-ontology. In this study we revealed that existing conversion rules do not comply with ORM2-semantics. We improved existing conversion rules for Entity Type and Subtyping elements of ORM2 notation. Also we automated the process of mapping ORM2-diagram (consisting of base elements of ORM2 notation - Entity Type, Value Type, Subtyping, Unary Role, Binary Role) into OWL2-ontology as well. As result of this study, we developed a software component, which is part of plugin for ontology editor Protégé. This paper also describes an experiment that confirms the effectiveness of the developed module. It is proven that module allows to exclude mistakes encountered in conversion ORM2-diagram to OWL2-ontology and to reduce conversion time as well.

  • Mechanism for lifting small-piece loads from paving slabs

    In industrial production, stacker loaders used for loading and transporting goods packed on pallets are quite widely used in warehouse work. Basically, when performing a loading and transport technological operation, the functionality of the stacker is sufficient. When an obstacle appears or pallets are stacked, additional maneuverability is required, as a result of which the overall performance of the loader is lost. As a result of the conducted research, it was found that when bypassing obstacles and laying pallets, the time spent on maneuvering the chassis is up to 13%, while the utilization factor of the loader-stacker in terms of productivity is 0.7. Numerical modeling of the positioning process of the load-handling body of the loading and transport unit was carried out, on this basis, the design of a loader-stacker with expanded functionality was proposed and developed, in particular, the service area increased due to the use of a tripod manipulator and two guide actuators, which reduces the time of the technological operation of loading and unloading pallets in warehouse work. Geometrical, structural and kinematic parameters of the loader mechanism are calculated.

  • Hardware and software usb-hid device for controllthe pc cursor for people with impaired motor functions

    The use of information technologies in the tasks of medical rehabilitation is an effective method, but it is often complicated by the problems of using standard control devices and input into the computer by people with motor impairments.

The used component base of the complex being developed and the technologies used make it possible to form a significantly lower cost, the possibility of using it outside the clinic, working without the help of specialists, application in control actions with computer software not only for rehabilitation but also for people with disabilities. The paper defines the tasks and functions that are solved by the hardware and software complex. In the 3D editor, the body frame and the internal arrangement of components are modeled, hardware and software tools are selected to ensure the implementation of the project.

  • Methodology for the application of one- and two-dimensional elements in the mathematical modeling of the subway tunnel lining

    In connection with the development of computational complexes of the finite element method, sometimes there is a problem of choosing methods and techniques for numerical experiments with the lining of interlinear subway tunnels.

  • Technique for automatic classification of roads using the neural network Mask R-CNN

    The paper proposes a method for automatic classification of roads based on the use of a convolutional neural network Mask-R-CNN. The developed technique makes it possible to automate the task of categorizing roads, which is fundamental in the redistribution of traffic flows, since knowledge of the category of the road allows you to determine its maximum capacity. The article contains a description of the stages of training a neural network, as well as the results obtained when using it. The method of automatic road classification proposed in the paper showed good results both in classifying roads based on satellite images and in classifying roads based on photographs of road sections. When expanding the test set, the number of classes of recognized roads can be increased to match the categories of roads according to SP 34.13330.2021. In addition, this technique (in terms of segmenting objects in photographs) can be used to control the quality of the roadway.

  • Architecture of the developed mobile application for detecting anomalies in human behavior

    Society has always paid great attention to the problem of human behavior that does not comply with established social and generally accepted norms. Recently, interest in the problem of deviations in human behavior has increased significantly. Today, the study of deviant behavior is an interdisciplinary problem that is being solved within the framework of various scientific disciplines. Recognition of anomalies in human behavior is a complex and currently undisclosed research problem. In the process of identifying behavioral anomalies, the recognition of emotions by various signs plays a leading role. In order to increase the accuracy of the results, it makes sense to perform a comprehensive assessment of emotions on several signs at once, such as facial expression, posture, vocal signs (intonation, speech speed, etc.). The article presents existing algorithms and methods for recognizing emotions. The rationale for the choice of software product development tools is given. The functional requirements for the application are presented in the form of a diagram of use cases in UML 2.0 notation. The architecture of an Android application for recognizing anomalies in human behavior in the form of diagrams of components and classes of the conceptual level is shown. Prototypes of the user interface are demonstrated.

  • The effectiveness of the use of polyethylene terephthalate recycling products in concrete

    The study is devoted to the generalization of the existing world experience on the impact of recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) products when they are added to concrete on its characteristics. Analysis of the available data shows the effectiveness of the use of PET fiber in a concrete matrix in order to recycle plastic waste, facilitate concrete structures, save cement consumption and improve the strength characteristics of concrete. But the researchers did not come to a consensus on the effective consumption of fiber during reinforcement, the influence of the shape of the fibers used on the properties of fiber concrete, as well as the areas of application of this material.

  • Effect of a Magnetic Field on Impurity Light Absorption Spectra of 1D Semiconductor Structures

    A periodic semiconductor structure is considered, consisting of tunnel-uncoupled quantum wires (QW) based on InSb containing impurity centers. The uniform magnetic field is directed along the QW axis. For the case of light polarization transverse with respect to the QW axis in the framework of the dipole approximation, in the effective mass approximation, an analytical expression for the impurity absorption coefficient of light is obtained taking into account the dispersion of the QW radius described by the Gauss function. It is shown that on the spectral curve constructed in the Maple program, for given parameters of the QW and the semiconductor structure, there is a sequence of resonant maxima with a doublet structure. The cyclotron frequency determines the distance between the maxima in the doublet, and the frequency of the doublets on the spectral curve is determined by the hybrid frequency. With an increase in the magnetic field, the dynamics of the edge of the impurity absorption band is observed, which can be used to create detectors of optical radiation in a wide range of wavelengths and will make it possible to identify such semiconductor structures. It is also possible to obtain valuable information about the parameters of the QW and the band structure of the semiconductor from the spectral curve

    The article presents the results of computational studies that are part of the authors' comprehensive research on the development of a methodology for predicting the resistance of steel fiber concrete to thermal effects at NPP facilities with various parameters of dispersed reinforcement. The studies were carried out using selected models to describe the processes of thermal deformations and changes in the most important properties of steel fiber based on previously obtained experimental and calculated data on thermal changes of steel fiber on an optimized cement-sand matrix with five types of steel fiber with a volume content of 0.5% to 6% after heating at 110-1100 oC. Based on calculations in accordance with the accepted hypothesis and the selected models, the dependences of thermal changes in the properties of steel fiber concrete relative to matrix changes from the calculated changes in linear dimensions due to the formation of cracks in the fiber concrete are established. The dependences of thermal changes in the linear dimensions of steel fiber concrete due to the formation of cracks on the ratio of the calculated unreliaxed tensile structural stresses in the matrix to the tensile strength of the matrix are established. Based on the performed studies, a method for predicting thermal deformations, changes in mass, linear dimensions due to the formation of cracks, strength, water resistance of steel fiber concrete, based on thermal deformations and changes in the properties of the matrix, parameters of dispersed reinforcement is formulated.
