The reorganization of existing coatings of public buildings into the “green roof” technology is possible in cases of the generation of an extensive type of green roofing system and, extremely rarely, of an intensive type. To clarify to the above, the load from the green roof of the extensive type in a water-saturated condition on the bearing part of the structural system of the building is 80 ... 100 kg / m2 with a substrate thickness of not more than 0.07 ... 0.15 m. Therefore, in most cases the introduction of this type of green Coverage in public buildings of the existing buildings is feasible.

The urgency of estimating the content of nitrates in food products to ensure environmental safety at an individual level is discussed in the article. Data on the negative effect of increased nitrate content in plant foods on human health are given. The results of the study on the determination of the content of nitrates in food products using a household nitrate counter "Soek nuk-019-2" are discussed. This device makes a conclusion about the concentration of nitrates by comparing the reference electrical conductivity of different types of vegetables / fruits with the electrical conductivity of a particular controlled product. It is determined that exceeding the MPC is observed in potatoes and onions, which are sold through a network of stores that occupy leading positions in the prevalence in Taganrog. Excess of MAC in carrots is observed only in its central part (core). Based on the results obtained, practical recommendations are given to ensure the safety of food consumption.

In article traffic safety and capacity of bridge crossings is considered. The road accident which happened on the bridge crossing sharply reduces its capacity and, therefore, all road in general. At emergence of danger to the movement in difficult road conditions the driver is compelled to apply the emergency braking. Thus the road accident won't occur when a distance between cars more or is equal to the size of a stopping way. At determination of length of a stopping way of the car at the emergency braking values of sizes of time of delay of operation of the brake drive and time of increase of delay are used.

Keywords: traffic safety, bridge crossing, capacity, stopping way, distance

Modeling and investigation of filters of selective rejection of narrow-band noise with a priori unknown frequency and selective suppression of multidimensional pseudorandom signals of discrete-nonlinear Lorentz system are carried out. The transformation of signal with phase manipulation in the digital selective nonlinear reject filter are studied. The digital functional rejection filters for selective signal rejection by form, synthesized in according to the principle of two-channel invariance theory, in information transmission systems with PSK-signals for suppressing additive harmonic signals of narrowband interference and masking pseudo-random signals of discrete nonlinear Lorentz systems is recommended. Recommendations on the use of digital non-linear rejection filters using mathematical programs are developed and justified.

The questions of desorption of the elemental composition of glass during processing with an electron beam is discussed. Sample silicate glasses prepared by standard technology were studied after polishing by electron beam processing (EBP). Calculated estimates showed that the depth of the surface depletion layer of weakly alkaline elements reaches 20-50 nm. Herewith the temperature front reaches the machining depth of 50 µm.

The article is devoted to the problem of using artificial neural networks as one of the methods of data mining (intellectual data analysis) for classifying the competencies of university students when determining the educational specialization. It describes the complexity of the process of selecting specialization and the associated negative consequences, as well as an approach to solving the given problem using software classification tools. As a basis for the implementation of the proposed tools, the student's information system is used on the website of the University of Tartus, Syria. The article presents data selection criteria to form the training sample, which includes the academic performance in some courses as input vectors. The values of the output vector depend on completed specialization and it get into the training set only if it is properly selected. On the basis of these data, the structure of a multilayer artificial neural network is formed and the learning algorithm is selected, the results of which are reflected on the university's website in the form of advice on the choice of future specialization, which has allowed increase the effectiveness of the educational process.

The safety of technological processes in the performance of loading and unloading, construction and installation works is becoming increasingly important. The desire of manufacturers to increase the power characteristics of load-lifting mechanisms and their number makes their mark on the unsatisfactory OSH management system in general, plus the discipline and unsatisfactory technical condition of the equipment leave much to be desired. The situation is not better with observance of elementary safety standards, which, as a rule, are skeptical not only for the working class, but also for engineers and managers who do not conduct personnel training, are not interested in the application of personal protective equipment (in rare cases), attestation of workplaces, everything is done formally, as a result of which the picture is not formed in the best way.

The system analysis of the main directions of the fourth scientific and technological revolution, called "Industry 4.0" in the field of road transport, is conducted in the article. The essence of the industry 4.0 is the development of the digital economy using cyberphysical systems, the Internet of things and large data. Applicable to road transport can be identified three areas: the creation of an unmanned vehicle, the development of technological support for the movement of trucks in the convoy, the development and implementation of "automobile Internet". At the same time, there are a number of technological, legal and ethical problems that hamper the large-scale development of a new generation of transport.
