  • Investigation of 3D printer cooling fan speed control as a means of reducing volatile organic compound emissions

    This study examines the control of the cooling fan speed as an effective means of reducing emissions of volatile organic compounds during three-dimensional layer-by-layer printing. The high extrusion temperatures used in modern high-speed printers lead to emissions of harmful volatile organic compounds, which poses health risks in poorly ventilated rooms. A mathematical model has been developed to establish a quadratic relationship between the fan speed and the volumetric air flow, which directly affects the deposition of volatile organic compounds on the melt surface. The experimental setup uses relay control of the motor current and proportional-integral-differentiating speed control, ensuring rapid stabilization of the air flow with minimal overshoot. From the analysis of transient characteristics, including motor current, fan speed, airflow velocity, and power consumption, it is shown that precise control of fan speed creates stable and predictable airflow movement, significantly reducing emissions of volatile organic compounds. In addition, the results show that integrating the feedback of the volatile organic compounds sensor in real time with the control of the extrusion rate can offer an even more adaptive and effective strategy for reducing emissions. This research lays the foundation for safer and more efficient 3D printing processes with layer-by-layer deposition modeling through improved temperature and emission management.

    The paper addresses the problem of the technical diagnostics of hump control devices, such as wagon retarders. The current analytical methods of monitoring and technical diagnostics of wagon retarder conditions are reviewed. The factors that are used in the existing diagnostics systems are analyzed and new factors to be taken into account, including specific pathway peculiarities, wagon group lengths, breaking curve styles, initial wagon group speed and environment conditions, are suggested. The suggested set of factors are characterized from the point of regression analysis. The replacement of some continuous factors with lexical ones are suggested. Decision tree-based classificators are suggested to perform the classification of hump retarder conditions. The decision tree-based classificators can be built with the means of Data Mining on a training set. An improved method of building decision trees is suggested. It’s advantage over the existing algorithms is shown on evaluation sets.

  • Modeling of the drive of the solar battery orientation system under wind conditions

    The article considers a variant of constructing a model of a solar battery orientation drive based on a DC motor and PID control. Orientation in space is performed along two axes: azimuth and zenith. The model is used for optimal adjustment of PID controller parameters when processing the required orientation angles under gusty wind conditions. The following are used as the main adjustment criteria: small overshoot when processing the angle, aperiodic (non-oscillatory) nature of transient processes, minimum dynamic error in compensating for wind effects when processing the angle, minimum settling time when processing the effect. The controller was optimized using the coordinate descent method. A variant of controller adjustment for the optimal mode is given with process graphs confirming its practical optimality. The constructed drive model can be used to implement a digital twin of the solar battery panel orientation drive monitoring and control system.

  • A dual-architecture approach to ECG biometric verification and authentication

    This paper presents a highly technical implementation of an ECG-based biometric identification system utilizing deep learning models for both verification and closed-set identification. We propose a dual-model architecture comprising a Siamese neural network for one-to-one verification and a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) for one-to-many classification. The methodology includes comprehensive signal preprocessing, data augmentation to simulate physiological variability, and feature extraction tailored to ECG characteristics. Experimental evaluation on benchmark ECG datasets demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed system. The Siamese network achieves high verification accuracy with low equal error rates, while the CNN classifier attains state-of-the-art identification accuracy (exceeding 98% on average) across enrolled subjects. Key performance metrics—accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score—indicate robust performance, outperforming several existing biometric methods. The results highlight the viability of ECG-based authentication in real-world applications.

  • Choosing the photometry distance when measuring light intensity

    When measuring the intensity of light, the size of the light source should be small compared to the photometric distance. In this case, the law of squares of distance is fulfilled, which can be applied in practice and obtain high measurement accuracy if the photometry distance exceeds the largest size of the light source by at least 10 times. For light sources with finite dimensions at small distances to the illuminated surface, this law must be amended. This paper presents the results of calculations of errors when using the law of squares of distance for light sources of finite sizes of various shapes and various light distributions.

  • Shell programs for studying chemical reaction mechanisms in the Gaussian package

    The paper describes the programs developed by the author, designed for automatic control of calculations carried out in the Gaussian package, as well as processing of the obtained results. Gaussian is a powerful quantum chemical program that allows solving a wide variety of problems related to the study of chemical compounds. However, this program has its own features, which in some problems create the need for multiple restarts of the calculation. In addition, in some cases, additional calculations may be required. For example, if we are talking about studying a reaction, and not a separate molecule, the characteristics of the reaction must be calculated using the results of calculations of the molecules involved in it. By automating the research process and performing calculations that are not directly available in Gaussian, shell programs can significantly save the user's time and relieve him of routine work. The approaches described are especially relevant when it comes to studying a whole set of molecules (for example, when studying reactions within a certain class of chemical compounds). Thus, provided there are no emergency situations, the use of a shell program eliminates the need for user intervention at all stages of the study that occur between the creation of initial tasks and obtaining the final results.

  • Software for the operator identification subsystem in a mobile simulator based on a neural network

    The article presents the results of a study devoted to the development of an identification subsystem for an industrial process operator in a mobile simulator used for training and monitoring professional skills. The functional requirements for the operator identification subsystem based on neural network technologies, the processes of user interaction with the personality recognition subsystem, and loading a reference image for further identification of the operator during training and monitoring on the simulator are formalized using visual models in UML notation. A prototype of the subsystem has been developed based on the Kotlin programming language and the TensorFlow library. The developed image analysis subsystem has a high speed of face detection and initialization, reaching less than 0.5 s, which makes it especially effective for real-time tasks where performance plays a key role. Local data processing on mobile devices ensures protection of user privacy by eliminating data transfer to remote servers, which minimizes the risks of information leaks. Optimization of power consumption ensures long-term operation on devices with limited battery capacity, which makes the system convenient and practical to use. The considered subsystem is planned to be adapted for monitoring the formation of skills for working on equipment during operator training on mobile simulators. The subsystem, based on VR/AR technologies, as well as a trained neural network, will analyze data on user reactions in real time.

  • Edge-oriented data quality control for Internet-of-Things streams with dynamic computation offloading between Edge devices and the cloud

    This paper addresses the challenge of assuring data quality in high-frequency Internet-of-Things (IoT) streams while migrating to a hybrid edge–cloud architecture. We demonstrate that moving a subset of data-quality procedures—trust-metric calculation, outlier detection, and data-contract validation—from the cloud to edge devices markedly lowers end-to-end latency and reduces cloud load. After surveying existing cloud-centric and edge-centric quality-control solutions, we reveal their limitations: static placement of analytic modules and lack of support for dynamic workload drift. We introduce the concept of edge-oriented data-quality control, in which validation tasks are continuously re-assigned according to real-time network bandwidth and CPU utilisation. A prototype based on Apache Flink implements the proposed scheduler. Experiments with an industrial testbed (300 000 messages/s) show a 37 % reduction in alert latency and a 46 % decrease in cloud CPU consumption compared with a fully cloud-based pipeline. The paper discusses strengths, weaknesses, applicability boundaries, and security threats, and outlines future work on adaptive model selection at the edge, multimodal stream support, and formalised data-quality contracts.
