Semi-analytical method for calculating elastic-hydrodynamic contact
Статья научная
A semi-analytical method for calculating elastic-hydrodynamic contact based on the partial use of Computer Aided Design / Computer Aided Engineering (CAD / CAE) packages and solutions of the integral equation of functional relationship between pressure and deformation have been described. The pressure in the lubricating layer is described by solving the modernized Reynolds equation taking into account the factors such as elastic deformation of surfaces in the contact zone, cavitation effect in the low-pressure region, and variable viscosity of the lubricant layer, which depends on thermodynamic parameters. Based on the stationary solution, a tensor damping coefficient has been obtained, with the help of which calculations of transient non-stationary modes that occur in cases of a sharp change in the external load have been further performed. A comparison of the results of modeling a plain bearing obtained by using the proposed semi-analytical method has been made and the full calculation performed using CAD / CAE programs such as ANSYS and COMSOL Multiphysics. The comparison showed good convergence of all numerical methods. At the same time, the “hybrid” method showed a number of advantages over direct calculations in CAD / CAE packages, such as: faster calculation speed, low requirements for computing resources and accounting for the cavitation effect. The described semi-analytical method allows to create digital twins of bearing units, centrifugal pumps and hydraulic supports used in satellite cooling systems and in rotary mechanisms of ground-based satellite dishes.

Статья научная
The paper considers a simulation computer model of an optoelectronic system for measuring the point objects coordinates. The model allows optimal coordination of the system links parameters in order to minimize the measurement error. The method of multiple statistical tests which allows accumulating the results of single computational experiments for each specific measurement event with a unique random distribution of links parameters and characteristics, and then carrying out statistical processing of the accumulated results is the main method of computer simulation. As a result of multiple analyses, multi-parameter functional dependencies that provide optimal coordination of parameters controlled by the designer or operator according to the criterion of the resulting measurement error minimizing are realized. The article presents the results of evaluating modeling parameters that reduce the measurement error. It is relevant to apply this method when using the same measuring system in different operating conditions, for different measured objects and when performing various functional tasks since it allows adapting the system for a specific application. The model presented in the article can be concretized for the purpose of evaluating and multi-parameter optimization of particular object parameters, as well as for developing a virtual measuring stand on the basis of the model and its modifications.

The implementation of efficient communication systems with high data transfer rates requires the usage of signals with a high modulation order. Current trends in the development of communication systems are aimed at orthogonal frequency multiplexing of signals (OFDM – Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) usage, which allows you to flexibly change the data transfer rate, to reduce the frequency resource by improving spectral efficiency, as well as to combat frequency-selective fading and selective interference. However, the price of such a solution is also high. The high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) OFDM signals imposes a requirement for the linearity of the analogical path, significantly reducing the efficiency of the transmitter and receiver output amplifiers, increasing the dimensions and power consumption of the communication system as a whole. The practical novelty of the work lies in the possibility of using the developed method for reducing the PAPR factor in systems with complex communication channels, such as troposcatter and near-field magnetic induction communication systems, where significant effect of selective interference, intersymbol interference, and frequency-selective fading is present. The results of this work give the opportunity to navigate a large number of algorithms for reducing the peak factor of OFDM signals and apply the desired algorithm in a specific task.

Obtaining electricity from renewable energy sources is primarily due to the exhaustion of traditional natural energy sources, such as coal, oil, gas. Today it is a promising area of development. The adverse impact on the environment of the use of traditional energy technologies is well known and scientifically proven. The use of traditional technologies inevitably leads to climate change, so the topic of the transition from traditional to alternative energy sources is undoubtedly relevant. Using of solar power plants with photovoltaic modules recently has gained relevance. However, the efficiency of such installations depends largely on their correct orientation to the Sun: the more precisely the system is installed, the more energy it will be able to convert. This article presents the results of the development of a simulation model of the solar panel orientation control system. To maximize the production of solar energy, the control system with tracking the Sun is built using fuzzy logic: fuzzy rules are formulated to control the positions of the object relative to the vertical and horizontal planes. The use of fuzzy logic is based on the product model of knowledge, which implies the use of linguistic variables to avoid the limitations inherent in classical product rules. The use of fuzzy control allows to correct the movement of the panel in the shortest time in the autonomous mode, thus reducing the arising power losses. Russian SimInTech dynamic simulation environment for technical systems is used as the system development environment. Simulation model is represented by several subprojects, united in a single database. The system model is implemented using standard blocks and a set of submodels, as well as a programming unit. The result of the work can be tracked in the 3D module of the built-in visual editor, which allows you to display the interaction of three-dimensional models objectively. In order to simplify and more finely implement the work of the project, a system of loading data, sunrise and sunset points, from an external Excel file was used.

The development of unmanned aircraft systems is becoming one of the key areas of Russia's scientific and technological development. Within the framework of the approved strategy until 2030, it is planned to form a new industry specializing in the creation and use of civilian drones, and priority areas for the development of unmanned technologies have been identified. The great potential for the use of unmanned vehicles is observed in the creation of geospatial databases. In this connection, when using autonomous aerial platforms for aerogeophysical works, the issues of improvement and development of information-measuring systems used on such carriers, as well as the issues of training of operators of aerogeo-physical systems become relevant. The development of algorithmic and software of information-measuring systems on the basis of implementation of previously created electronic content: reference materials, instructions for work, operation of instrumentation products, protocols for processing of obtained results, decisionmaking techniques, etc. is becoming important. However, the application of such electronic content carries risks of reducing the quality of surveying works. One of the ways of risk assessment is to combine the traditional qualitative and categorical approach of modern risk management with multilevel representation of the hierarchy of aggregation of expert-assessed risks in the composition of summary and integral risks by applying the apparatus of soft computing. For systematization and prioritization of risks it is proposed to use gradation scales and terms of linguistic variables of risk components associated with the probability of occurrence of a decrease in the quality of content of information support of operator training systems, with the potential value of possible damage in the event of the fact of a decrease in the quality of information support. As a result, it becomes possible to develop a risk-assessment model, which is a procedure for the specific construction of matrices of consequences and probabilities for individual risk-indicators of the assessment of the integration of electronic content in the information support of training systems for operators of information-measuring systems of aerogeophysical applications. This procedure is a logical basis for calculation of summary and integral values of risk-indicators of assessment, as well as gradation of risk levels.

Software system for mathematical simulation of the electronic beam welding process
Статья научная
Within the framework of this study, a software system for modeling the distribution of the temperature field in the steady-state mode of the electron-beam welding process for thin-walled aerospace structures is proposed. The purpose of creating such a software system is to improve the quality of control of the electron-beam welding process and, accordingly, to reduce the number of defects in welded joints of thin-walled structures. The software system has a model structure and implements the energy distribution models proposed earlier by the authors. The MySQL database management system and the Embarcadero RAD Studio programming system were chosen as the means of implementing the program. The central link of the system is a database that allows you to store and process information both on mathematical modeling and on the results of simulation and field experiments. The article describes the structure of the developed software system, and also presents algorithms for the operation of its constituent modules. The system provides the user with the opportunity not only to carry out simulation according to the specified technological parameters (welding speed, accelerating voltage, beam current, boundary conditions, simulation time, product material), but also to visualize the results and save them in a single database. The use of the proposed system allows not only to minimize the costs of the enterprise for the development of technological parameters of the steady state for the electron-beam welding process, but also to create a flexible information base for collecting experimental information with the aim of further automating and intellectualizing the technological process of creating permanent joints in the framework of Industry 4.0.

In this paper, we consider the solution of the filtering problem using the Kalman filter with the optimal tuning of the radio-reflecting net. A large-sized transformable space-based reflector is considered. In the process of this structure placing in orbit, it is possible that the real form of the radio-reflecting net can deviate from the desired one. To ensure point-to-point adjustment of the active part of the mesh, a cable-cable system is used. The nodal points of the radio-reflecting surface are connected to the back side of the net through cables. They have built-in actuators that allow one to change the length of the cables. A piezo actuator was selected as a control device. By point-by-point adjustment of the piezo actuators the net is stretched to the required shape. This ensures a high-quality radiation pattern and a high signal level when receiving and transmitting data. Specific values of the disturbing influences are given. To measure the supply voltage on the piezo actuator and the cable length, a voltage converter and a laser scanner are used. Possible deviations from the calculated initial position are determined. In accordance with the principle of separation, the estimation problem is solved first, then the control problem. The estimation problem is solved using the Kalman filter. The control problem is solved using the optimal control algorithm according to the hierarchy of target criteria. The results of numerical simulation are presented. The successful solution of the problem is shown with variable values of measurement noise and disturbing influences. Comparison with trajectories obtained applying various optimal control algorithms is given.

Failures of elements during the operation of technical and many other systems are, as a rule, random in nature. This leads to various models of the recovery process, studied in probability theory and mathematical reliability theory. During the restoration process, failed elements are restored or replaced with new ones, and there is often a change in the costs and quality of the restored elements (time-to-failure distribution functions). The work examines the cost function (average cost of restoration) in the process of restoration of order k1, k2 , in which, according to a certain rule, the costs of each restoration and the distribution functions of operating time change. Considering, that the recovery function (average number of failures) is well studied in reliability theory, a solution to the integral equation for the cost function is obtained through the recovery function of the model under consideration. For the order restoration process 1 2 k , k , a formula is obtained for calculating the cost function through the restoration function of a simple process formed by the convolution of all distribution functions of the periodic part. For practical application, explicit formulas are obtained for the cost function during the restoration process, in which the periodic part is distributed according to an exponential law or an Erlang law of order m with the same exponent α. The resulting formulas can be used to study the properties of the cost function and solve optimization problems in strategies for carrying out the restoration process in terms of price, quality, risk, if, for example, the average number of failures is taken as quality, the average cost of restorations as price, the dispersion of the number of failures as the risk, or cost of restoration.

Solution to the first boundary value problem of plane elasticity theory using conservation laws
Статья научная
A huge number of works are devoted to solving boundary value problems for the equations of plane elasticity theory. The largest number of studies in this area are based on the formula found by G. V. Kolosov. He was the first to express the general solution to the problem of plane elastic deforma-tion by finding two independent functions of a complex variable. This made it possible to apply a welldeveloped theory of analytic functions to solving problems of elasticity theory. Later, the solution method based on Kolosov's formula was developed by his student N. I. Muskhelishvili. But the described method also has significant limitations. It is applicable only to those areas that can be conformally mapped onto a circle. Therefore, other methods for solving elasticity theory problems are also needed, since a large number of practically important problems are solved for areas that do not satisfy this condition. The method developed in the work is based on the use of conservation laws that are constructed for equations describing a plane deformable state. The assumptions made in the work make it possible to construct a solution to the first boundary value problem for arbitrary plane areas bounded by a piecewise smooth contour. In this case, finding the components of the stress tensor is reduced to calculating contour integrals along the boundary of the region under consideration. As in the case considered by G. V. Kolosov, the solution to the problem is based on two exact solutions of the Cauchy – Riemann equations, which have singularities at an arbitrary point in the region under consideration.

The plane problem for elasticity equations is well studied. It can be explained by its importance for applications and by the fact that the equations can be reduced to the Cauchy-Riemann system. In spite of this importance, exact solutions that would describe the stress-strain state of bodies of finite dimensions are not numerous. Conservation laws for differential equations have been appeared more than a hundred years ago, but, as a rule, they were not used to solve specific problems, but were of purely academic interest. The situation changed with the development of the technique of construction of conservation laws for arbitrary systems of differential equations, and then with the use of conservation laws to solve boundary value problems of the theory of plasticity and elastic-plasticity. In this article, new conservation laws are constructed for the equations of the plane theory of elasticity in the stationary case. These laws form an infinite series, which is closely related to the elasticity equations solving. This fact made possible to reduce solving of boundary value problems, in terms of displacements, to the calculation of contour integrals along the boundary of a domain bounded by the studying elastic body. As it follows from the proposed technique, the studied area can be multiply connected, and the considered boundary can be piecewise-smooth.

Solving the problem of stretching an elastic-plastic strip weakened by cuts and holes
Статья научная
In this paper, the boundary between elastic and plastic regions in a stretchable strip is con-structed. The band is weakened by side slits and holes. Such tasks are still relevant, since its solution allows us to make an assessment of the limiting state of the structure under consideration. Cuts can have an arbitrary shape, their number is not limited. For simplicity, only sections with rectilinear boundaries are considered in the article. The holes may have an arbitrary shape and be located anywhere in the strip. In operation, only circular holes are considered for simplicity. Numerical methods are currently very often used to solve such a problem, unfortunately, often without much justification. Therefore, analytical methods for solving such problems are becoming more and more relevant. In this paper, the conservation laws of differential equations are used. The conserved current is linear in the first derivatives. The task is solved in two stages. At the first stage, Dirichlet is solved for the Laplace equation, and at the second stage, the technique of conservation laws is used. Their use makes it possible to reduce the finding of the components of the stress tensor at each point to a contour integral along the boundaries of the region un-der consideration. And this makes it possible to build an elastic-plastic boundary.

The article presents the problem of optimizing the structure of information processing computer appli-ances for real-time control systems used, among other things, in the rocket and space industry. In addition, the features of this problem that affect the choice of optimization methods are studied. It’s concluded that this problem can be effectively solved using evolutionary optimization methods. Existing performance models allow you to determine the minimum hardware configuration of a multi-processor computing system. The approach proposed in this article allows us to find configurations that have hardware redundancy (compared to the minimum configuration), but, due to this, have a greater probability of being in states that provide performance sufficient to achieve the goals of functioning of the designed real-time control system. The described approach is more flexible than simply duplicating all hardware components of the minimum configuration, which can be used to reduce the cost of creating and operating the designed control system. The proposed model can be used to optimize the performance of multiprocessor hardware and software complexes of real-time control systems. At the same time, it should be taken into account that the resources allocated for the creation and operation of the hardware and software complex are always limited. There-fore, it is advisable to consider the problem of performance optimization as a multi-criterion: one criterion will be performance, and the other-the cost of creating a hardware and software complex.

The S-box is the most important component of modern cryptographic algorithms which largely determines the quality of cryptographic transformation. The modern method of estimating the S-boxes quality employs their representation as component Boolean functions to which cryptographic quality criteria are applied. Such criteria include: nonlinearity, correlation immunity, an error propagation criterion, and a strict avalanche criterion. Nevertheless, it is obvious that a cryptanalyst is not constrained in the ways of representing the cipher components, in particular, using the functions of many-valued logic. The design features of modern cryptographic algorithms allow their representation in the form of 4-logic functions, which determines the need to research cryptographic properties of the S-boxes represented as component 4-functions. In the literature today there are methods for measuring the nonlinearity of 4-functions; nevertheless, there are no similar methods for researching the differential properties of 4-functions, in particular, involving their compliance with the strict avalanche criterion. In this paper the strict avalanche criterion is generalized to the case of 4-functions and the compliance of the S-boxes component 4-functions of the “Magma” cryptoalgorithm to the strict avalanche criterion has been researched. All balanced 4-functions of length N = 16 satisfying the strict avalanche criterion were synthesized using the restricted brute-force method. The basic properties of the constructed class of 4-functions are determined, and bijective S-boxes based on them are constructed. It has been established that S-boxes of length N = 16 satisfying the strict avalanche criterion, both in terms of component Boolean functions and in terms of 4-functions, also possess optimal nonlinear properties. This circumstance allows us to recommend S-boxes satisfying the strict avalanche criterion of component 4-functions for use in modern cryptographic algorithms.

Studying dynamics and classification of attacks to corporate network web services
Статья научная
The article presents a study of the dynamics of attacks onto the web services using the classification of cyber threats by types due to the example of the corporate network of the Krasnoyarsk Scientific Center of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The analysis is carried out on the basis of web services logs and it allows to solve urgent problems of ensuring the integrated security of web services, including identifying both existing and potential cybersecurity threats. The article demonstrates a review of the main approaches to the processing and analyzing logs. The authors describe the type and composition of data sources and provide a list of the software used. A feature of the study is a long observation period. The structure of the processing system is proposed and software tools for attack analysis and classification are implemented. The research shows that the use of classified samples allows to detect periodicity and reveal trends of certain types of attacks. Unclassified attacks have similar distribution parameters for different years, while in the case of classification, the distribution parameters have changed significantly, which makes it possible to track risks in automated intrusion prevention systems. A correlation matrix by type of attack is constructed. The analysis shows that most attack types have weak correlation, with the exception of the attacks “command injection”, “directory browsing”, “Java code injection”, which can be aggregated. The authors propose a heuristic method of risk comparison based on cyber threat classification. The method uses statistical parameters of sample distributions and permits to deal with different time intervals. The paper georeferences the IP addresses from which the attacks are carried out, builds attack profiles for different countries, and provides a list of countries with a stable attack profile. The conclusion indicates the features of the proposed method and outlines the prospects for its use in other areas.

System analysis of dynamic problems of anisotropic plasticity theory
Статья научная
Dynamic problems are the least studied area of plasticity theory. These problems arise in various fields of engineering and science, but the complexity of the original differential equations do not allow to develop accurate solutions and correctly solve numerical boundary value problems. This is even more typical of dynamic equations of anisotropic plasticity. Anisotropy reduces the group of symmetries allowed by the equations, and therefore narrows the number of invariant solutions. One-dimensional dynamic plasticity problems are well studied, but two-dimensional problems cause insurmountable mathematical difficulties due to the nonlinearity of the basic equations, even in the isotropic case. The study of the symmetries of the plasticity equations allowed us to find some exact solutions. The most known solution was found by B. D. Annin, who described the unsteady compression of a plastic layer made of isotropic material by rigid plates. Annin's solution is linear in two spatial variables, however, it includes arbitrary functions of time. Symmetries are also used in the proposed work. Point symmetries are first calculated for dynamic plasticity equations in the anisotropic case and are presented in the paper. The Lie algebra generated by the found symmetries appeared to be infinite-dimensional. This circumstance made it possible to apply the method of constructing new classes of nonstationary solutions. Symmetry can transform the exact solution of stationary dynamic equations in non-stationary solutions. The framed solutions include arbitrary functions and arbitrary constants. The outline of the article is as follows: according to the method of Lie group of point symmetries allowed by the equations of anisotropic plasticity is calculated. Two classes of new stationary invariant solutions are framed. These stationary solutions, by means of transformations generated by point symmetries, are transformed into new non-stationary solutions. In conclusion, a new selfsimilar solution of unsteady equations of anisotropic plasticity is framed; Annin's solution is generalized for the anisotropic case. The framed solutions can be used to describe the compression of plastic material between rigid plates, as well as to test programs, designed to solve anisotropic plastic problems.

Dynamic multi-objective optimization problems are challenging and currently not-well understood class of optimization problems but this class is of great practical value. In such problems, the objective functions, their parameters and restrictions imposed on the search space can change over time. This fact means that solutions of the problem change too. When changes appear in the problem, an optimization algorithm needs to adapt to the changes in such a way that the convergence rate is sufficiently high. The work is devoted to the comparison of the different approaches to formation of a new population when changes in the dynamic multi-objective optimization problem appear: using solution, which obtained in the previous step; using a random generating of the population; partial using solutions which obtained in the previous step. In the first part of the article the classification of the changes in the problems is provided; the currently existing approaches to solving the problems based on evolutionary algorithms are considered. During the research NSGA-2 and SPEA2 algorithms are used to solving the dynamic optimization problems, the benchmark problems set is used to the comparison of the approaches. Obtained results being processed by Mann–Whitney U-test. It was obtained that changes rate in the problem affect the efficiency of the application of the solutions obtained in the previous step of new population the forming.

In practice problems, which consist in the search of the best (optimal) solution according to the different irredundant and contradictory (conflicting) criteria, called multi-objective problems, are of frequent occurrence. One of the most commonly used methods for solving this kind of problems consists in combination of all criteria into the single one by using some linear relation. However, despite the simplicity of this method, solving problems with its help may cause other problems related to the determination of the mentioned linear combination, namely related to the determination of the weight coefficients for each criterion. The incorrect selection of these coefficients may lead to non-optimal solutions (according to the Pareto theory). In this regard, recently various population-based algorithms have been proposed for solving the described problems, which are the modifications of these population-based algorithms for solving singleobjective optimization problems. This article describes the developed modifications of the Differential Evolution algorithm (DE) for solving multi-objective unconstrained optimization problems based on the well-known NSGA (Nondominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm) and MOEA/D (Multiobjective Evolutionary Algorithm Based on Decomposition) schemes, which use the Pareto theory. The investigation into the efficiency of the Differential Evolution algorithm for solving multi-objective optimization problems in relation to the chosen mutation operator of the original DE algorithm and to the multi-objective scheme was conducted. The developed modifications were tested by using some well-known multi-objective real-valued optimization problems with 30 variables, such as ZDT1, ZDT2, ZDT3, etc. The practical problem of spacecraft control contour variant choice was solved as well. The experimental results show that better results were achieved by the Differential Evolution algorithm with the simplest mutation operators combined with the NSGA scheme. Thus, the applicability of the described modification for solving practical multi-objective optimization problems was demonstrated.
