The issues of joint deformation of monolithic and precast concrete in precast-monolithic structures are considered. The stages of the stress-strain state of the contact seam of the interface during its loading are determined. A method for calculating the contact seam is proposed, performed on the basis of Deryagin's binomial law of friction, and taking into account both the friction forces and the adhesion forces, as well as the inclusion of transverse reinforcement in the deformation process. Based on the works of Prof. Deryagina B. V. the application of a single "true" coefficient of friction for friction and adhesion forces is proposed. The substantiations based on experimental studies of various scientists, the possibility of applying the binomial law of friction in relation to the issues of joint deformation of monolithic and precast concrete at the 1st stage of the stress-strain state are given.

This article discusses a proportional-integral-derivative controller circuit for an unstable system with a delay in a parallel control structure. The parallel control structure has two separate controllers for tracking tasks and suppressing load disturbances. The considered controller is developed on the basis of a direct synthesis approach by choosing a separate reference model with feedback. The proposed design method is applicable to both the lower and the high-level unstable process without model reduction in the higher order process. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated through example modeling and comparison with methods published in the literature.

The article deals with the priority passage of regulated intersections by public transport using the method of extending the permitting signal. The relevance of the problem under consideration is due to insufficient study of the issue of choosing the optimal control parameters for the method of extending the resolving signal. Using simulation modeling, a study was carried out of the priority passage control process on two- and three-lane road sections. In the course of the experiment, the dependences between the extension time of the allowed signal and the cycle duration were determined at different ratios of the phase coefficients, as well as the optimal distance of the priority activation detectors. The obtained results of the research work can be used in the design of the urban intelligent transport system and when adjusting the control modes in the automated traffic control system of the urban agglomeration.

This article uses the structural-functional method. The proposed study shows how many factors influence the performance, efficiency of enterprises and how important it is to follow the latest technologies and vectors of their development. Everything is important, from the material and technical equipment of personnel to the timely replacement of obsolete or outdated devices that have reached the limit of their own reliability. No reliance should be placed solely on technical means or personnel performance - these two crucial aspects must work together, be continuously monitored and have everything they need to perform their tasks in a quality and timely manner. It is also important to learn from the experience of previous years, so that it is possible to understand what mistakes have been made and, therefore, to act appropriately in order to avoid them again. It is also important to develop such positive trends as the transition to remote control of relay protection devices. To date, we must pay special attention to information security of the complexes' operation during the transition to remote control, as the current realities of work at power facilities require exactly that. Equally important is the purpose of this article to forecast future trends in RPA development over a period of twenty years.

The results of a study of the influence of slags from various manufacturers on the spreadability, strength and shrinkage of self-compacting fine-grained concrete are presented. It was found that replacing up to 30% of cement with slag reduces the strength of concrete only in the initial period of hardening. It was shown that the use of slag can significantly reduce the shrinkage of concrete.

When designing security systems for buildings and structures, the technical specification specifies the required characteristics of the equipment. On the basis of the technical specification, a certain number of solutions (projects) from different designers and suppliers can be formed. These projects may differ in equipment, method of installation and maintenance, different degrees of functional reserve and the possibility of expanding the system if necessary. At this stage of equipment selection, the engineer is faced with the problem of choosing one optimal option from the presented subset, since all projects (solutions) meet the requirements of the technical specification. The presented algorithm for selecting the elements of the security system of real estate objects is based on the construction of a complex assessment model. The characteristics by which the equipment will be compared are determined. The degree of importance of each characteristic is determined. A comprehensive assessment of each alternative is calculated. The proposed approach avoids the negative consequences of subjectivism arising from the influence of the external environment.

The article deals with the case when a concentrated force is applied to the web of a prestressed beam. The preliminary shear stresses do not affect the stress state in the middle of the beam span. However, preliminary normal stresses will act over the entire height of the wall and affect the distribution of the zone of local stresses and the stress state of the web. Determination of stresses in a beam is based on the beam theory of S.P. Timoshenko. The article presents a system of equivalent forces on the edges of the wall and the equation of normal stresses in the cross section of a prestressed beam. Compared to a conventional beam, prestressing reduces normal stresses from concentrated forces.

In the automation of production, the use of robots is an important direction. When developing algorithms for controlling the movement of such a machine, multidirectional problems arise. In a critical situation, the robot must not harm workers or collide with its fellow robot. At the same time, the car must move along the optimal route. The article analyzes the methods of finding optimal paths on square navigation grids. The wave method on undirected planar graphs, the A* algorithm (an extension of Dijkstra's algorithm), and the D* Lite algorithm for graphs with non-constant or previously unknown structure were chosen for the analysis. A visualization and testing system in C#has been developed for the research and testing of algorithms. The system is implemented using the Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 IDE software tools and external GraphX and Emgu CV libraries. A unique feature of the system is the ability to directly read images of shop floor maps in widely used graphic formats and automatically convert them to a format that is understandable to the system. First, the user uploads the shop floor plan. For easier processing, the image is converted to two colors: black and white. Then the image is processed by the Emgu CV library, at the output we get all the contours of stationary obstacles. Then, depending on the size of the robot, an orthogonal navigation grid is superimposed. The analysis of the obtained results allows us to conclude that it is better to use a method (the D* Lite algorithm) that allows for a non-constant or unknown grid structure in advance.

The article provides an assessment of the economic efficiency of a prestressed bistal beam, prestressed stretching of web. The comparison is made with a conventional bistal girder without prestressing with the same cross-section. The costs of material, design, production, transportation and installation are considered. It is taken into account that to create pre-stress, more labor costs are always needed, therefore, the manufacture of pre-stressed structures is more expensive than conventional structures. The purpose of prestressing is to reduce the consumption of steel in the fabrication of the structure. The structure of labor costs for the manufacture of structures is given. A comparative analysis of the cost "in business" of a running meter of a beam, prestressed by wall stretching, and a beam without prestressing, depending on the complexity of their manufacture, is carried out.
