As a rule, the information they have guides for fatigue testing geometrical designs, gives only the evaluation of the characteristics and design lay stock in several, and sometimes in tens times exceeds the tensile strength of the material. And saving of material, from the point of view of obsolescence, product should be developed on a certain resource. For details, which operate in the field of elastic deformations and calculated in operation for a given mode of operation should lay in the design of the guaranteed resource. To do this, for example, compensating coupling method is suggested, which is based on the calculation methods of CAD/CAM/CAE/CSE NX 7.5 and field tests considering the impact of technology of surface hardening. The character of strain in «elastic element» in NX 7.5. The calculations of the elastic element module «flexible body» NX 7.5, but due to the fact that the calculation is impossible to consider technological parameters of manufac-turing is conducted equivalent full-scale tests. Accordingly, designed and built a stand for equiva-lent tests. Finally, for comparison, is a computer simulation to calculate large displacements and complicated movements of the coupling. For this we used the application NX 7.5 «Simulation of kinematic mechanisms» with the attraction tools «Flexible body».

The quantum and chemical simulation (HF/MP2, cc-pVDZ basis) of diphenyl-2,2',4,4'-tetraamine (DPTA) molecule properties allows to determine the its thin film pyroelectric properties since hydrogen bonds between molecules in the film are weaker than intramolecular bonds. The study of a DPTA photosensitive pyroelectric film microstructure enables one to assume that the dipole moment of the needle-shaped crystallines densely stacked and extended along a film surface is aligned perpendicularly to the surface. The possibility of the reproduced control for DPTA properties may be used when producing the most effective pyroelectric film for photodetectors in infrared wavelength range.

The article is devoted to modelling of process of decision-making in difficult systems in the conditions of total uncertainty. The problem is formulated on the basis of synthesis of concepts of the control theory and decision-making, the theory of fuzzy sets and the fuzzy logic, the theory of hierarchical multilevel systems, the utility theory and the theory of games. The given concept expands possibilities of the account uncertainty the various nature, typical to mathematical description of the surrounding validity. Problems of search of decisions in an fuzzy hierarchical control system are designated. The way of the description and finding of alternative decisions in multilevel difficult systems is offered in given article. The algorithm is based on information processing in the form of fuzzy intervals taking into account two kinds the politician conservative and aggressive on the basis of criteria «maxmin» and «minmax». The method of projection on individual interval is used for comparison of the fuzzy intervals presented on various dimension scales. The example showing work of algorithm of a choice of two groups of alternatives is resulted: optimistic and pessimistic on a level of hierarchies of the purposes in the conditions of total uncertainty.

The basic virtue of the sowing apparatus of an overpressure is possibility of conducting of sowing on the big speeds and with high uniformity of dispensing of seeds. But the processes occurring in the sowing apparatus of an overpressure at dispensing of seeds, are insufficiently studied. In the article one of stages of process of dispensing by the overpressure sowing apparatus - transportation of a unit seed by dosing elements of a seed disc is observed. The forces acting on a seed in the course of transportation with a dosing element of a seed disc are defined. The gravity, centrifugal force, force of air drag and pressure force of air refers to to them. The scheme of forces is presented. As a consequence of theoretical research dependence of magnitude of an overpressure in the seed vessel from key parameters of work of the sowing apparatus of an overpressure has been defined. Graphs of theoretical dependence of pressure in the seed vessel from diameter of holes and a seed disc angle of rotation are built. The analysis of the gained results allows to draw following conclusions. The increase in diameter of holes of dosing elements of a seed disc leads to considerable decrease of the pressure necessary for transportation of a seed. At increase in an angular velocity of a seed disc pressure necessary for the secured transportation of a seed is augmented. The increase in an angle of rotation of a seed disc puts insignificant agency on pressure in the apparatus seed vessel.

A problem of signal estimation (or estimation of some parameters of the signal) based on measurement results obtained by means of distributed sensor network is considered. The system formed by spaced sensors called nodes (or motes) obtains information about a stochastic process. It is supposed that there is a single source of the information and the distortions are linear.
Every node gets incomplete and distorted knowledge about the observed process and operates on the low sampling rate. Combined processing of the information obtained from the different sensors makes possible to perform the integrated estimation which is usually much more accurate.
The application of the information performance criterion provides high robustness in the presence of the noise and the measurement uncertainty and, theoretically, gives the most complete information, while the measurements have severe constraints.
Due to the multirate signal processing it is possible to decrease requirements on sensor’s sampling frequencies, to reduce the channel loading and the current consumption of sensors. Furthermore, the computational load falls in real-time applications.
