Automation of monitoring construction works based on laser scanning from unmanned aerial vehicles
Статья научная
Introduction. Current publications and technologies for digital modeling of construction projects often entail considerable expenses and lengthy project timelines. In order to effectively monitor and control a large number of objects, there is a need to develop laser scanning technologies specifically for unmanned aerial vehicles, eliminating the need for ground-based imaging. Materials and methods. The study employed a hexacopter-type unmanned aerial vehicle equipped with a laser scanner, as well as specialized software for processing aerial imagery and laser scanning data, which included tools developed by the authors. The octant method was utilized when developing an algorithm for point cloud comparison. Results and discussion. In the course of the study, a technology for automating the monitoring and control of construction work was developed, in accordance with which aerial photography is performed once and an orthophotomap of the object is built (to accommodate laser scanning data). Then, with a certain frequency, laser surveys are carried out from an unmanned aerial vehicle, dense clouds of points are formed for different dates. To compare them, a linear computational algorithm has been developed, which, using data on two dense point clouds, allows obtaining the resulting cloud, which reflects the progress in the construction work. A feature of the algorithm is that the search for points is not carried out over the entire cloud, but within the boundaries of octants. This speeds up data processing and reduces the load on computing power. The technology received software implementation in the web application “Management system for monitoring construction work at facilities that have passed the state examination.” It allows the user to quickly get a visual representation of the change in the construction object for the selected period, to carry out all the necessary measurements (coordinates, geometric parameters, material consumption, etc.). Conclusions. The developed technology for automating the monitoring of construction work can be used by developers, customers, state and municipal authorities to quickly obtain information in order to control and support managerial decision-making.

Binder properties for zol-silicate paint
Статья научная
Introduction. The binder for sol-silicate paints is made on the basis of a polysilicate solution obtained on the basis of liquid glass and silicic acid sol. The technological process of creating a polysilicate binder is complex and it is not always possible to achieve the required characteristics. In this regard, the development of a polysilicate binder and the creation of a sol-silicate paint based on it are relevant. Materials and methods. Silicic acid sols Nanosil 20 and Nanosil 30 produced by PK Promsteklotsentr were used in the work. We used sodium liquid glass with a modulus of M = 2.78, potassium liquid glass with a modulus of M = 3.29 (GOST 13078). The conditional viscosity of paints and varnishes was determined using a VZ-4 viscometer according to GOST 8420-74. “Paint materials. Methods for determining the conditional viscosity. Tensile strength (cohesive strength) was determined according to GOST 18299-72* “Paint and varnish materials. Method for determination of tensile strength, elongation at break and modulus of elasticity” on the tensile testing machine IR 5057-50. The silicate modulus of liquid glass was determined according to the method described in GOST 13078-81. The molybdate method was used to study the composition of liquid glasses and polysilicate solutions. Results and discussions. It was revealed that liquid glass and polysilicate solution are typical pseudoplastic bodies. The addition of a sol (an increase in the silicate modulus) promotes an increase in the proportion of high-polymer fractions of siliconoxygen anions (SCA), and with an increase in the sol content, the proportion of the polymeric form of silica increases. It has been established that there is a correlation between the content of silica in the polymer form and the tensile strength of the films, which means that with an increase in the content of silica in the polymer form, an increase in the tensile strength of the films is observed. Conclusions. It has been established that with an increase in the amount of silicic acid sol introduced, a decrease in the pH of solutions is observed at a constant alkali concentration. The introduction of a sol of silicic acid leads to a change in the viscosity of the solutions. The introduction of a sol of silicic acid into liquid glass promotes an increase in the proportion of high-polymer fractions of silicon-oxygen anions. Films based on polysilicate solutions are characterized by faster curing and higher tensile strength compared to films based on liquid glasses.

Biodegradable polymer materials and modifying additives: state of the art. Part I
Статья научная
One of the most demanded materials on the planet is plastic, the excellent performance of which contributes to the accumulation of a significant amount of waste on its basis. In this regard, a new approach to the development of these materials has been formed in scientific circles: the production of polymer composites with constant performance characteristics for a certain period and then capable of destruction under the influence of environmental factors. Analysis of the current state of the industry of polymeric materials shows that the most urgent is the use of such classical polymers as polyolefins and polyvinyl chloride. First of all, the optimal solution to this problem due to the lack of a suitable replacement for traditional polymers is the development of composites based on them with the use of biodegradable additives. In this case, a set of problems associated with waste disposal is solved: the decomposition period of the recycled waste is significantly reduced, the territories required for plastic waste are reduced. The paper outlines the preconditions for the emergence and further development of the field of biodegradable polymers. The main quantitative characteristics of the production capacities of manufactured bioplastics by types, regions and industries of application are given. Modern methods of reducing and regulating the degradation time of polymer materials are presented. The main global and domestic manufacturers of biodegradable polymers and their products are listed, as well as a list of the main manufacturers of biodegradable additives for polymeric materials. Modern types of bioplastics based on renewable raw materials, composites with their use, as well as modified materials from natural and synthetic polymers are listed. The main methods for determining the biodegradability of existing bioplastics are described.
