The process of cavitation is one of the reasons for the premature wear of pumping equipment components. Elements of a pumping wheel are subject to the greatest wear. In addition, cavitation causes undesirable effects such as vibration and noise. In order to reduce cavitational damage and increase the service life of pumping equipment, the authors of this article propose to install a special-shaped flow divider at the pump inlet that breaks the flow entering the pump into separate jets of a certain shape and structure.

The object of research in this article has become a rather important topic of describing such a statistical method as analysis of variance. The fact is that many software products consider, basically, a case when the number of factors is not more than two. With the exception of such a powerful product as a SPSS Statistica. The same can be attributed to scientific works, where the method of analysis of variance with a large number of factors is very rarely considered and described (often, when it comes to multifactorial analysis of variance, two factors are also considered). Therefore, an analysis was made of the existing mathematical apparatus, a proprietary idea was proposed for the implementation of this statistical method, and was created a software product to demonstrate how its work.

In work area of application for quantitative metrics of databases are considered. Quality control of the database scheme is impossible without numerical indicators. Metrics of the database can be calculated it is automated that guarantees the accuracy and recurrence of such measurements. In article the model for assessment of complexity of the physical scheme for relational database based on metrics of the table of the database is offered. For the offered model by using the method of T. Saati, received coefficients which consider extent of influence of each metrics on complexity of the database. On the example of real projects for databases quantitative measurements of their metrics in MySQL are executed. The comparative analysis of the results obtained for the model of complexity estimates for various projects of physical schemes for databases and the amount of information contained in sql-scripts of these databases are described.

This article is devoted to the issue of rational exploitation of space in cities with a large population. It is known that a sharp decrease in the area of land plots within the city limits accessible to public use leads to a decrease in the quality of life of citizens. The authors of this article are considering in detail the possibility of using roofs as additional public spaces. The article discusses such methods for using roofs as solar power generation, rainwater harvesting, apiaries and poultry farms, sports complexes, playgrounds, vegetable farms, etc. Particular attention is paid to the so-called ""green roofs"", their design, classification, application. The authors of this article talk about the numerous advantages of green roofs, such as the ability to manage wastewater, reduce the influence of “urban heat islands”, create new public spaces, create new jobs, increase energy efficiency, reduce noise, increase market value, etc. However, the authors of this article did not forget to show the disadvantages of green roofs. The main disadvantages of this project are the higher initial cost, the increased load on the foundation and walls, and the increased costs of operation. Nevertheless, the authors draw conclusions that the advantages of green roofs far exceed their disadvantages and the further development of this direction is very important and promising. 3. Installation of active seismic resistance monitoring systems (active method). Such an active feedback control system contains three main elements: a. Sensors for measuring external excitation; b. Computer hardware and software; c. Drives to provide the necessary control forces. At present, the most popular is the hybrid method of semi-active control, which combines the advantages of a seismoisolating basement with passive shock absorbers, which is much more economical in comparison with the active method.

The article discusses the results of the development of a pilot plant that allows for the process of purification of multicomponent wastewater containing organic impurities of the phenol series based on a combined method in a single apparatus, consistently combining the process of ozonation with the sorption post-treatment of oxidized wastewater, ensuring continuity of the process and allowing the reuse of residual ozone, which greatly increases the degree of wastewater treatment and eliminates the need bridge of ozone destruction. The degree of purification achieved in this way allows the treated wastewater to be directed to the circulating water supply.

Innovative organizations have begun to use fixed-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for healthcare delivery since they can fly faster and provide a proper solution in locations with difficult access or unsafe to human life. Moreover, they assure greater utility and better cost effectiveness than manned aircraft. However, the wind affects both the longitudinal and the lateral variables of the fixed-wing UAV contributing to its nonlinear and due to such external disturbances the UAV can fail its mission. Therefore, this review paper discusses on effects of wind disturbances on navigation of fixed-wing UAV. Full nonlinear equations of motion by including the effects of the wind on the fixed-wing UAV performance are developed. Also an overview of different approaches is presented.

In this paper we consider the problem of choosing an acceptable system of collection, transmission and display of information of the coastal control center of Autonomous uninhabited vehicles (ANPA) in the theory of decision-making. In the case of an exponential decision-making system, which provides a hypothesis about the acceptability of the system of collection, transmission and display of information, it is necessary to determine the total time of semantic identification of forest topology "A" - graph [1] (the principle of additivity). This requires additional test experiments or known data on the time of understanding the semantics in specific situations. If this time is less than the normative, or more precisely the time of compromise, then such a system of collection, transmission and display of information can be recommended for operation in an exponential decision-making system. Otherwise, such a system cannot be recommended to the decision-maker of the type under discussion.

Despite numerous advantages, green construction has not yet acquired significant proportions, since modern environmental technologies in construction lead to increased costs, and legislation is also not being adapted to new certification systems. This article outlined the main objectives of "green" construction. Considered the most important principles on which it is based. Analyzed the modern "green" standards for environmental performance of buildings, discussed in detail the methods for determining the rating of a building on specific scales. The advantages and disadvantages of environmental standards were also noted, groups of organizations in the field of “green” construction in Russia were considered.

The experience of using blast furnace slag as an artificial foundation of the building foundation is considered. In the process of construction and installation works, the displacement of the columnar foundations was revealed due to changes in the initial properties of the blast-furnace slag. The chemical composition of the slag belonged to the group of inert materials. In fact, after layer-by-layer compaction, the process of disintegration of its initial properties began. The analysis of the conducted studies showed that in the regulatory and scientific literature there are no unambiguous recommendations on the use of this material as the base of buildings and structures. The recommendations that are available relate exclusively to its use in road foundations. From experience it follows: the use of slag in construction is possible, subject to confirmation of its compliance with specific construction conditions.
