In this article, the authors consider the main aspects of maintaining the temperature and relative humidity of the premises of library collections and archive repositories using specialized engineering equipment. The preservation and preservation of material assets is designated as one of the priority tasks of preserving the cultural heritage of Russia. Conservation includes all types of activities and engineering support to guarantee the physical safety of any objects intended for long-term storage, such as library and museum. Currently, both the national program for the preservation of cultural values and the strategy for the development of librarianship have been adopted, including engineering methods for maintaining microclimate parameters for storage facilities and archives of various types: library, museum and federal purposes. Previously, the authors studied the reports provided on the preservation of library collections in Russia and abroad. It has been revealed that in a significant number of cases, the conditions for the preservation of both paper and other funds intended for storage and use as necessary to work with them are not provided. The authors conducted a study and analyzed changes in microclimate parameters when using central air conditioners of various configurations serving two separate sections of one library storage, which is a single-tier room type. The disadvantages of using a simplified basic modification of the central air conditioner based on the results of temperature and relative humidity control in each of the rooms, performed daily from January to June 2022, were confirmed. Variants of changing the configuration of engineering equipment with insufficient functionality with a limited area of the ventilation chamber are proposed.

The article addresses the issue of determining the ultimate eccentric compressive longitudinal force from an external load acting on a compressed reinforced concrete element. The calculation assumptions are adopted in accordance with the current code of practice SP 63.13330.2018. The transformation of the initial formulas given in this code allowed the explicit solution of the cubic equation with respect to the compressive longitudinal force without the need for iterative calculation methods. The solution thus obtained can be employed in the design process to determine the optimal section dimensions.

The safety of hazardous production facilities is directly related to the reliable operation of pipeline systems, as a failure occurring in the elements of such systems can lead to serious consequences for production facilities and the environment. Since the greatest number of failures is associated with faults caused by corrosion, to increase reliability it is necessary to increase the corrosion resistance of metal of pipeline elements. The article gives an overview of materials for manufacturing parts, the influence of different climatic conditions on the mechanical properties of steels. The developed rotary gate designed for automatic prevention of reverse flow of working medium is also presented. To confirm the serviceability of the design, strength calculation of the structure was carried out, where its stress-strain state under the given loading conditions is considered. As a result, the values of maximum equivalent stresses, maximum deformations and displacements were obtained, which are lower than the maximum permissible ones.

The main characteristics of the building for dynamic calculation are the frequency and forms of natural oscillations. These values are related to the rigidity of the building, the rigidity of the elastic foundation and its mass. To study the effect of the stiffness of the elastic foundation, an equivalent idealized model of free oscillations of a cantilever rod is considered. The calculation takes into account the rigidity of the support. For the considered model, a transcendental equation and its numerical solution is obtained. Solutions for the limiting cases of elastic foundation stiffness are obtained. The obtained results allow us to analyze the effect of the stiffness of the elastic foundation on the frequencies of natural oscillations. It is calculated that with an increase in the stiffness of the elastic foundation, the frequencies of natural oscillations increase. The influence is limited and has an asymptotic character. The rigidity of the elastic foundation can have a significant effect on the natural frequencies of the first five bending forms of natural oscillations and may not be taken into account for higher-order forms.

The wastewater generated by the pulp and paper industry contains diverse contaminants such as organic substances, fine suspended powders, and dissolved solids. Currently, integrated treatment technologies are employed, utilizing thin-layer settling tank modules to eliminate solid contaminants. This study presents the outcomes of a comparative analysis of the efficacy of a conventional thin-layer module with flat plates and a modified thin-layer module consisting of two levels of plates, positioned in opposing directions, facilitating the rotation of water flow within the module. Through computer simulation techniques, it is demonstrated that the modified module design can enhance the cleaning efficiency by 8-30% for wastewater flow velocities ranging from 0.0025 to 0.0125 m/s. Additionally, particle trajectories and velocity fields were obtained, which clearly illustrate the direction of the dictating flow and circulation zones within the structure.

The design of energy-efficient buildings is based on the analysis of the external climatic effects on buildings for various purposes, the parameters of the air environment inside which are well defined. Climate systems of buildings should neutralize the negative impact of the external environment, in particular wind exposure. It determines both the temperature regime of the room and the purity of the air inside them. The complexity of both theoretical research and the organization of field experiments or blowing models of buildings in a wind tunnel makes it necessary to resort to mathematical modeling of the wind impact on the school building based on the StarCCm+ program. Velocity fields were obtained for different directions of wind load, the excess heat loss of the building in certain directions was determined. The possibility of conducting such studies in a wider range of initial and boundary conditions is shown.

The testing of technique for modeling the local atomic structure and X-ray absorption spectra for zinc ions in an aqueous solution in the presence of arachidic acid has been adjusted. Models of the local structure of zinc with different coordination geometries are considered: planar, pyramidal, tetrahedral, and octahedral. The cases of increasing distances between the zinc ion and water molecules in the plane and in the axial direction are simulated for octahedral coordination. It has been established that the most probable change in the local structure of the zinc environment in solution in the presence of arachidic acid is the removal of water molecules from zinc ions in the axial position and their further replacement with the formation of a bond with the carboxyl group of arachidic acid.
