In this paper, an analysis of the problems and tasks arising from the design of situational awareness tools has been carried out. As a result, it has been established that the approaches in this area do not satisfy the requirements for modern intelligent tools for operational decision support for the reasons for the lack of methods and tools reflecting the dynamics of information processes and a distributed information processing architecture with weakly structured properties. The methods of operating and extracting knowledge from semistructured dynamic information are proposed.

The paper presents the development of a system for detecting the status of control and protection system drives (CPS) of a water-water power reactor by vibration signals using the frequency components method. Results of experimental researches at the "Izhorskiy Plant" PO are given. Spectral analysis is used to isolate the frequency ranges of the CPS diagnostic signal spectra, and to develop diagnostic standards. The work describes formation of reference diagnostic vectors (a set of diagnostic features in the form of a binary code) and their comparison with the current state. The developed standards formed the basis for the system of automatic recognition of the object state. The introduction of such a system will simplify the task of collecting, analyzing, comparing drives data during operation at nuclear power plants, as well as improving methods of testing and diagnosing CPS drives, which should positively affect the reliability and resource of equipment.

One of the parameters determining the efficiency of cleaning the blood in hemodialysis therapy is an effective mass transfer processes of metabolites through the dialyzer, which is defined by the mechanism of molecular diffusion and convection of low and medium weight substances in the blood. The article presents an analysis of modern mass transport models: streaming and kinetic; the analytical expressions of the spatial and temporal distribution of metabolites in the dialyzer. The results of mathematical modeling showed that these models do not reflect the full extent of the entire mechanism of mass transfer and must be supplemented. This is primarily due to the fact that blood is a non-Newtonian fluid. In addition, during hemodialysis, there is a change of the rheological properties of the blood - viscosity aggregated and deformability of erythrocytes, which ultimately affects the dialyzer mass transfer processes, reduces its clearance and thus reduces the efficiency of hemodialysis. The authors consider that the solution to this problem might be to develop a space-time mathematical model of mass transfer (the so-called distributed model of mass transfer), built with the influence of the driving forces behind the transfer of substances through the membrane dialyzer basic parameters and characteristics of fibers and rheological blood properties. In our view, the space-time dependence of the distribution of concentrations of metabolites in the blood and dialysate hemodialyzers allow to predict normalization the concentration of metabolites in the blood, and thus improve the accuracy of assessing the quality of dialysis.
