Given an ensemble of datasets, we study the object classification accuracy in terms of the error probability depending on the amount of processed information using various fusion schemes. Schemes of combining weak discriminant functions in each dataset as well as in an ensemble of different modality datasets are suggested. For the proposed fusion schemes, the redundancy of the error probability relative to the information-theoretic lower bound defined by the modified rate-distortion function with the Hamming distortion measure is evaluated. The experimental evaluations in datasets of signature and face images show a decrease in the error probability and its redundancy with the amount of the processed information being increased by combining weak discriminant functions.

The study deals with a conflict situation associated with the movement of clusters, including hundreds of small control objects in the field of responsibility of the radar station of an external observer. The task of the external observer is to monitor and trace the cluster movement and control it if a threatening situation occurs. The task of the cluster is to create the maximum possible uncertainty in decision making by the external observer. The cluster motion model is developed as K. Reynolds’ swarm behavior, supplemented by special coefficients. Three methods are developed for the formation of various cluster shapes, close to geometric and changing in the process of movement. A hypothesis is formulated and confirmed by mathematical modeling that, due to variations in the geometry, shape, and number of objects in a swarm cluster, there exist a possibility of creating situations where a swarm will be perceived by the external observer as a single large object different from the original one. It is shown that it is possible to create clusters simulating dangerous objects if the criterion for making a decision is the value of the effective scattering surface.

Keywords: systems with distributed parameters, minimization of energy consumption, programmed control, alternance method, synthesis of optimal control
A method is proposed for synthesis of energy-efficient controllers in both open and closed domains of definition of spatiotemporal control actions for linear multidimensional objects of the parabolic type with distributed parameters under the conditions of a specified accuracy of uniform approximation of the system's final state to the required spatial distribution of the controlled variable. The suggested approach is based on the previously developed alternance method of constructing parameterized algorithms for optimal programmed control, which utilizes fundamental regularities of the subject area. It is shown that the sought controller equations are reduced to linear laws with constraints for feedbacks based on incomplete observation of the state of an object with non-stationary transfer coefficients, which are determined by a preliminary calculation of the programmed control action.

Keywords: kinetic model of the reaction, optimal initial concentrations, differential evolution
The paper formulates a numerical algorithm for searching for optimal initial concentrations of substances in a catalytic reaction, which combines the principles of kinetic modeling and evolutionary calculations. The problem of optimal control of the catalytic reaction is formulated, where the control parameter is the vector of the initial concentrations of the initial substances. A step-by-step algorithm for solving the problem is described, which is based on the method of differential evolution. A computational experiment is carried out for the reaction of aminomethylation of thiols with the help of tetramethylmethanediamine. With the help of the above-described algorithm, the optimal concentrations of the initial substances are calculated, at which the highest value of the concentration of the reaction product is reached. It is shown that the calculated values of the initial concentrations of substances are consistent with the results of a chemical experiment.

Classical opto-acoustic receivers (OAR) are successfully used to solve a number of scientific and applied tasks, such as measuring weak optical radiation fluxes in the IR and THz ranges, quantitative and qualitative analysis of gas mixtures, and studies of absorption spectra of gases and vapors. The purpose, design, and evolution of the main structural elements of classical OAR are considered. The prospects of using single-layer graphene as the most promising material for creating membranes are analyzed. A significant increase in sensitivity is due to the exceptionally high elasticity of graphene combined with its high mechanical strength. It is shown that the use of a flexible membrane made of single-layer graphene reduces the OAR susceptibility to acoustic and vibration noise by more than three orders of magnitude without the use of any vibration protection devices. Due to the preservation of high elasticity by the graphene membrane at helium temperatures, the OAR operating range can be extended from 320 K to helium temperatures, which ensures reaching the theoretically maximum threshold sensitivity by reducing noise and opens up the possibility of wide application of the OAR for solving scientific problems of astrophysics and cosmology. Capacitive, optical, tunnel, and cantilever detectors of microdeformations of a flexible membrane are considered. It is shown that the maximum metrological characteristics of the OAR can be reached due to combining the unique capabilities of two developments: a membrane made of single-layer graphene and a tunnel microdeformation detector.

Keywords: adaptive optics, turbulent atmosphere, active corrector mirror, Strehl parameter, hysteresis
This article is a logical continuation of the previous analysis of the dynamic characteristics of adaptive optics systems operating in a turbulent atmosphere, in particular, the influence of such an important factor of an active corrector mirror as its hysteresis is analyzed. An analytical approach is used to calculate the requirements to the dynamic parameters of the feedback loop of an adaptive system for focusing laser radiation through a turbulent atmosphere. The possibilities of using control algorithms in adaptive optics systems based on the description of their operation as a constant delay control system are considered. A corrector mirror model is used, which takes into account the time delay between the time of the signal and the time of its processing. To estimate the frequency of operation of the adaptive optics system, an analytical expression is used that relates the maximum achievable level of correction by the Strehl parameter with the most important system parameters: the accuracy and frequency of the wavefront sensor and the aperture size of the optical system, as well as with atmospheric parameters: the Fried parameter and the wind speed. The differences between two types of tracking loops are analyzed: open and closed loops in adaptive optics systems.

Keywords: tax revenues, stress index, regions, federal districts, external shocks, sanctions, pandemic, decomposition
The study aims to examine the influence of external shocks, such as sanctions, the pandemic, and oil price fluctuations, on tax revenue stress in the country’s federal discticts and individual consistuent entities. To achieve this, we have developed a tax revenue stress index, which represents the spread from the moving standard deviation to the sliding rate of growth of annual tax revenues, and a methodology to decompose the index by its sources Using the developed index, we estimate tax revenue stress in Russian regions from January 2013 to October 2022, considering the pre-pandemic, pandemic, and recovery periods. Our findings indicate a significant positive correlation between tax revenue stress and oil price stress with a lag of 4-7 months, although the response of regions to oil market conditions varies. Notably, the Far Eastern, Ural, and Siberian federal districts experience higher average tax revenue stress. Among the federal districts, the Ural district plays a major role in both increasing and reducing tax revenue stress, while the Central district acts as a strong stress buffer during external shocks. The pandemic had a significant impact on tax revenues in most regions. However, in 24 out of 85 examined constitent entities of the Russian Federation, the average stress decreased, and in 36 regions, the maximum stress value decreased. During recovery, tax revenue stress was lower in 70 entities compared to the previous two periods. Nevertheless, metropolitan cities and certain regions have already felt the effects of new sanctions imposed in 2022. Notably, stress patterns behave abnormally in the Far Eastern border regions and Murmansk Oblast , which can be attributed to specific resilience factors related to their regional economies and specialization.
Based on the hypothesis of quasi-stationarity, relations were obtained for calculating the unsteady process of filling a vacuum vessel. As a criterion for the completion of the filling process, the admissible degree of pressure increase in the vacuum vessel is adopted. An analysis was made of the possibilities of increasing the duration of the filling process for a vacuum vessel of a given volume.
The density of liquid mixtures of lithium and potassium fluorides with a content of 51.2 and 71.1 mol % LiF was measured using gamma-ray attenuation technique in the temperature range from liquidus to 1000-1190 K. For a mixture of near-eutectic composition (51.2 mol % LiF), the relative density change during the solid-liquid phase transition and the density in the solid state near the melting point were directly determined for the first time. The concentration dependences of the molar volume and volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion for the LiF-KF liquid system were plotted on the basis of the experimental and literature data. The obtained dependences were found to be close to the concentration dependences of the corresponding volumetric properties for ideal solutions.

Keywords: aluminum alloy AlCu4,5Mg1, calcium, “cooling” mode, heat capacity, enthalpy, entropy, Gibbs energy
The cooling rates of the studied alloy samples were determined in the "cooling" mode, by constructing thermograms of cooling alloys and their subsequent differentiation. Considering the heat capacity of the standard (Al brand A5N) and the cooling rates of the samples and the standard, the temperature dependence of the heat capacity of the aluminum alloy AlCu4,5Mg1 doped with calcium was calculated. Computer processing of the results served to obtain a polynomial of the temperature dependence of the heat capacity of alloys in the form of a four-term equation with the correlation coefficient R ≤ 0.999. It has been found that the heat capacity, enthalpy, and entropy of the alloys increase with increasing temperature, while the value of the Gibbs energy decreases. Additions of calcium in the range of 0.05 -1.0 wt. % reduce the heat capacity, heat transfer coefficient, enthalpy and entropy of the AlCu4,5Mg1 aluminum alloy, and the Gibbs energy has an inverse relationship.

Keywords: solar-driven Brayton heat engine, cycle efficiency, regenerative cycle, radiative loss, heat transfer nonlinearity
In endoreversible cycles, irreversibility is considered only between the systems and their surroundings. In this paper, the modelling of heat interaction with a solar regenerative Brayton cycle is studied with regard to various fidelities based on the first and second laws of thermodynamics. The effect of linearity and nonlinearity related to the both convective and radiative heat interactions with the hot and cold reservoirs as well as radiation losses of the solar Brayton cycle have been studied, which is complementary to similar attempts for Carnot cycle. Total efficiencies are compared between various implemented models. The effect of temperature of six critical sections of the whole engine on the collector efficiency, cycle thermal efficiency and the system total efficiency has been studied. Besides, a comparison is done for a real example to show the importance of considering the nonlinearities for calculating thermal efficiency of a closed-loop Brayton cycle at different hot source temperatures, as well. These would help more efficient analysis of the emerging power cycles that can accelerate progress toward low-carbon power production.

Keywords: Modeling, coal, seam, gas drainage, flow, pressure in sorption, stress state
The apparatus of nonstationary thermoelasticity is used to estimate the joint and separate effects of gas pressure sorption and gravity on gas drainage and on stress state in the vicinity of underground openings. It is shown that gas flow changes the stress state of coal, and pressure in sorption essentially counteracts pressure in gravity. Ignorance of the latter fact may lead to a poorly substantiated choice of a coal gas drainage technology and to an erroneous prediction of rock strength and stability.

Keywords: Fractured porous rock mass, laboratory experiment, manmade geomaterial, regular layered sample, permeability, matrix, fractures, mass transfer coefficient, stress
The experimental procedure is developed and tested on a laboratory scale and using layered samples of manmade geomaterials. Within the dual-permeability model, the procedure enables determining parameters that govern fluid flow and poroelastic deformation in fractured porous rock masses, namely, fracture permeability k1 and mass transfer coefficient β, as well as their dependence on stresses σ. The testing procedure is proposed and implemented. In the procedure, under the stepwise increasing normal stress σ, the stationary flow rates Q1(σ) and Q2(σ) are measured in a quasiregular fractured porous sample at the preset pressure difference: using a standard setup (Q1) and in closed end-face fractures (Q2). The mathematical model of the experiment is constructed, and the analytical solution of the problem on stationary flow is obtained: pressure patterns in fractures, and stress-dependence of flow rates. The experimental data interpretation algorithm enables calculating k1 and β by the recorded flow rates Q1 and Q2. It is shown that the permeability k1 is proportional to σ -2, and β remains almost unchanged.

The authors analyze seismic and hydrogeological data recorded after a large-scale blast on 22 September 2021 in Lebedinsky open pit mine, Kursk Magnetic Anomaly. In blasting of four groups of blocks, the maximum values of PPV are determined at five observation points arranged at the epicentral distances of 1.7-4.9 km, as well as the amplitudes of the hydrogeological response are assessed in two observation wells in overlying rock mass. The main parameters of the blast-induced seismic effect are used to calculate maximum PPV from the earlier found relation. The divergence of the recorded and theoretical data is observed in the near field of the blast in the first group of blocks, at the reduced distances of 106-198 m/kg1/3. In blasting in sedimentary rocks at the reduced distances of 405-512 m/kg1/3, the difference in the wavefield is observed. The research findings can be used in drilling-and-blasting control.

The new design of a powered roof support for the controlled longwall top coal caving in thick coal seams contains a special outlet and a reciprocating feeder. The introduction of such technology needs pre-testing and analysis of the outlet modes per the support units, such that to ensure the maximum allowable fill of the longwall conveyor without its overloading and dynamic phenomena. Created in Rocky DEM environment with that end in view, the simulation model takes into account the physical effect of rock mass fracture using the discrete element method, and enables variation in the design parameters and operating conditions of the powered roof support. The implemented experiments make it possible to assess the interdependence of the average velocity of coal outlet to the conveyor, the outlet gate angle and the feeder vibration frequency.

The authors describe the integrated studies into the influence exerted by nonequilibrium low-temperature plasma of dielectric barrier discharge in air under normal conditions and pressure on the acid-base, adsorption and flotation properties of natural iron sulfides (pyrite and arsenopyrite). The studies aimed to correlate the plasmachemical treatment parameters with the physicochemical and process properties of sulfide minerals. Using the Hammet indicator method, it is found that plasma treatment strengthens acceptor properties and weakens electron donor properties of pyrite surface, as well as weakens acceptor properties of arsenopyrite. Adsorptive properties of pyrite relative to the electron-donor butyl xanthate grow, and, as a consequence, flotation activity of the mineral improves. In case of arsenopyrite, the adsorptive properties and flotation activity decrease. It is shown that the low-temperature plasma pretreatment of minerals reduces arsenic yield in flotation froth by 10-11% at the reduced arsenic content of concentrate by 0.71-0.78%.

The authors propose the galena flotation mechanism based on the joint work of chemisorbed collector and physisorbed lead xanthate in molecular form. It is proved experimentally that the products of interaction between xanthate and lead ions possess surface activity dependent on the concentration ratio and on solution pH. In alkaline range, they spread over the gas-water interface and can remove water from the interlayer between a mineral particle and a gas bubble. In sub-acid medium and at the increased mole ratio of lead ions to xanthate anions, the spreading velocity of the interaction products decreases. The physisorption mechanism of the collector has disclosed the causes of high floatability of galena in the alkaline range of pH and the decreased floatability in the sub-acid domain.

Keywords: Flotation, collector physisorption, flotation activity criterion
The causes of coincidence between pH of a solution of collectors, at which the maximal recovery of a target component is reached, and pH of the solution with minimal surface tension are discussed. Based on the physisorption mechanism of a collector, the floatability connection with the surface tension of the solution is explained. It is shown that extraction of ion-molecular associates from the solution and the presumptive increase in the mineral surface hydrophobicity are not an explanation of the increased recovery. The floatability improvement is achieved via removal of the kinetic constraint of the flotation contact by surface-active species of collectors. The increase in the collecting activity of a blend of collectors is explained by the synergetic effect of the decreased surface tension and reduced induction time. The criterion of flotation activity of a physisorbable collector is proposed.

A new device designed for wet magnetic separation-magnetic hydrocyclone-allows separating magnetic fraction from a fast and curved flow of pulp. The advantages of the magnetic hydrocyclone are the high specific output and the design simplicity which governs reliability of the device. The pattern of calculation of the magnetic hydrocyclonage performance represents an estimation of separability of magnetic fraction depending on the device geometry, variation in the magnetic field parameters, flow velocity and the physical parameters of the particles. The processing performance from calculations is compared with the results of the magnetic hydrocyclone testing. The proposed device is recommended to be included in the processing flow chart for ferruginous quartzite and other types of ore with the pronounced magnetic properties. Inclusion a magnetic system allowing higher magnetic induction up to 5-10 Tl in the flow chart makes it possible to extract weakly magnetic minerals.

The optical, electron scanning and laser microscopy methods produced new experimental data on the adsorption layer generated by the chelating agent MDTC and hogweed extract on the surface of sulfide minerals in composition of complex ore. It is found that MDTC selectively attaches to chalcopyrite and forms a stable and water-insoluble compound with copper, which uniformly covers the whole surface of the mineral. It is determined for the first time that at the surface of pyrite, intense formation of dark-brown crystals of MDTC oxidation products takes place-dimorpholinethiuram disulfide which is chemically adsorbed at the mineral and is resistant to multiple washing-off in water. Morpholine dithiocarbamate does not interact with the surface of arsenopyrite and scheelite, and does not form stable phases with the components of these minerals. Hogweed extract does not desorb MDTC and is observed on the pre-adsorbed collector in the form of a fine bluish film washable off with water. At arsenopyrite and scheelite, a few separate and fine spots of hogweed are found.

This paper studies the effect of using cationic/mixed anionic collectors in the practical application of quartz sand flotation. The combined use of Dodecylamine(DDA)/sodium oleate(NaOL)/sodium dodecyl sulfonate(SDS) is the innovative point of this paper. This experiment used quartz sand from Hanzhong, Shaanxi Province, China. The results showed that the combined use of DDA, NaOL and SDS was better than the single use. Using DDA/NaOL/SDS mixed collector, the removal efficiency of Al2O3 can reach 75.1%, compared with DDA/NaOL mixed collector, the purification effect of Al2O3 can be increased by 11.1%. Compared with DDA/SDS mixed collector, the use of this mixed collector can greatly improve the purification effect and recovery rate. And the quartz concentrate has a good recovery rate in practical application.

Keywords: InSAR, Probabilistic Integration Method, Genetic Algorithm, insufficient mining, parameter inversion
By combining the advantages of InSAR, Probabilistic Integral Method and Genetic Algorithm, an improved method for dynamic prediction of probability integral parameters is proposed to realize subsidence inversion and prediction in insufficient mining. Firstly, InSAR is used to obtain the time series information of surface deformation in goaf. Then, a genetic algorithm-based parameter inversion model is constructed to invert the subsidence parameters such as subsidence coefficient and influence radius. After that, a dynamic prediction function is established to obtain the complete surface subsidence pattern and dynamic change trend of the mining area. Taking a goaf in Shanxi Province as the experimental object, Sentinel-1A(S-1A) image as the data source, combined with PIM and InSAR data, the parameter inversion model is used to successfully obtain the dynamic change process of mining subsidence parameters. The results show that the dynamic prediction function can achieve a certain effect on surface prediction in insufficient mining, and the parameter inversion model based on genetic algorithm has a high inversion accuracy, which provides a basis for surface prediction in insufficient mining.
