This article discusses the relationship of all stages of the life cycle of buildings on the basis of information-analytical system IAS HCS. The full life-cycle cost of a 1,000-seat school was calculated. Using the IAS HCS program, we made calculations of the costs of repair work on three models: without taking into account any repair work, taking into account the repair of the main structural elements and taking into account the repair of all elements, based on the standard operating time. Real estate life cycle cost analysis can be performed for both new and existing buildings of any type (residential and public). Evaluation of the total costs of the full life cycle of the object can be applied by both the developer and the owner of the building to further improve the management system of the property.

Modern research of objects of technology is largely carried out using various software systems. One of such software packages is SolidWorks. It is widely used in industrial enterprises and in research organizations. This complex has extensive libraries of properties of various structural materials. However, they do not represent the properties of all possible combinations of materials with the appropriate hardness. When building a model of a real object, it is necessary to accurately set the properties of materials. This will make it possible to carry out various design calculations with greater accuracy. Previous studies have established that the working part of the turbocharger rotor shaft (made of 40X steel) consists of two layers - surface (hardened) with a hardness of HV 530-570 and internal (not hardened). The values of the physical and mechanical properties of 40X steel with a hardness of HV 530-570 necessary for constructing a rotor shaft model are not available both in the SolidWorks material properties library and in the reference literature. To determine the necessary values of the properties of this material, a series of experiments using a bursting machine was carried out. The experiment was carried out with specially manufactured samples subjected to heat treatment to a hardness of HV 530-570. The data obtained as a result of the experiment were used to construct a model of the turbocharger rotor shaft when assigning the properties of the surface (hardened) layer. This approach makes it possible to obtain results corresponding to real details when carrying out engineering calculations of the constructed models.

The article considers the work of a reinforced concrete beam lying on an elastic half-plane. The strength of concrete is considered as a random variable, while the initial modulus of elasticity of concrete and, accordingly, the initial stiffness of the beam are taken as functions of the random cubic strength of concrete. The base of the beam is considered as an elastic stochastically inhomogeneous half-plane. Using the method of canonical expansions of random functions, the probabilistic parameters of the probability distribution densities of beam deflections, as well as bending moments and transverse forces in a reinforced concrete beam, which are non-stationary random functions, are obtained. This makes it possible to further determine the probability of occurrence of limit states in a reinforced concrete beam.

The most important task of the admissions committee of any university is to advise applicants on admission to the specialties available at the university. In this article, an automated information system has been developed, which, based on the applicant's questionnaire, allows you to form recommendations when choosing a training specialty, taking into account the applicant's personal preferences. Artificial neural networks are proposed to be used as a method of choice, and the multilayer perceptron (MLP) was the model of the neural network.

The article presents the results of the development of research in the field of automated teaching of foreign languages (on the example of English) on a mobile device with the IOS operating system. A feature of the developed simulator-training system (TOS) is the possibility of forming an individual approach to teaching students to improve the quality of education, using theoretical and practical material, based on the performance of the student. The introduction of TOS contributes to improving the quality of education due to the ease of mastering the material, as well as a clear control of the topics studied. The relevance of the developed application is determined by the popularity and availability of mobile devices, as well as the high prospects for the implementation of applications (in particular, in the field of education and self-education) for this platform.

The article presents the dependence of the change in the intensity of emission during the passage of an infrared flux through a two-component material, which allows for a fractional assessment of a mixture of natural and chemical fibers. On the basis of the obtained dependence on experimental data, a mathematical model has been constructed that makes it possible to quantify the distribution of dissimilar fibers in a mixture. The modelling results showed that after the second transition on the draw frame, the so-called "stretching" defect is observed, which characterizes the uneven distribution of fibers in the product cross section.

At present time, there are attempts to design and produce forest machines of highly-demanded classes in Russia. The paper evaluates the efficiency of forest machines under identical operating conditions. The analysis showed the possibility of using harvesters and forwarders of joint Belarusian and domestic production for logging works as an alternative to foreign forest machines. Evaluation of proposals revealed advanced Russian and Chinese models of forest machines. The research showed that in our country there are prerequisites for the development of forestry machine-building, while the main problem is the lack of production technologies for the manufacture of modern technological equipment and components. Under these conditions, the evolution of production on the national territory of forest machines and technological equipment without involving domestic or foreign capital and innovative technologies is a difficult task.

Co-branding contributes to the creation of more successful products. Purposeful formation of the image of an architectural object, that is, its brand, consists of three parts. Its creation involves the brand of the organization or organizations located in the building, the brand of the author or authors of the project, and the brand of the place. These three components can manifest themselves in different ways in an architectural object. Studying the issues of joint branding of architectural objects and understanding this process is important not only for architects and developers, but also for other professionals. The realization of the possibilities hidden in this area contributes to the creation of a holistic image of an architectural object.

The article outlines the features of the developed algorithm for controlling autonomous industrial forest management facilities under real operating conditions under the forest canopy. A significant challenge faced by the developers in the presented algorithm was the practical absence of global navigation in the areas of use of potential autonomous industrial forest management objects. Thus the only alternative was local positioning algorithms, which of the existing ones were also unserviceable under real forest canopy conditions. The problem was exacerbated by the high requirements for positioning accuracy not so much for autonomous objects as for positioning accuracy relative to the object of work of the contact elements of technological equipment directly implementing the operations of the industrial timber harvesting process. The developed concept of local positioning has no analogues in the world, belongs to the algorithms of the latest generation, created by the authors on the basis of mathematical modelling of the operations of industrial forestry process and implemented in registered software complexes to manage the information flows that ensure the sustainable functioning of autonomous objects of industrial forestry in real operating conditions.

This paper proposes an accurate and dynamic method for diagnosing of crop diseases. This method adopts Bayesian networks to represent the relationships among the symptoms and crop diseases. This method has one main difference from the existing diagnosis methods - it does not use all the symptoms in the diagnosis, but purposively selects a subset of symptoms which are the most relevant to diagnosis; the active symptom selection is based on the concept of a Markov blanket in a Bayesian network. Theoretical analysis demonstrates that the proposed method can significantly enhance the performance of crop disease diagnosis.
