The possibility of revealing the main defects that arise when strengthening reinforced concrete structures by external reinforcement systems based on carbon fibers is considered. The efficiency of active and passive methods of thermography is compared, and the possibility of using the passive method at negative ambient temperatures is considered. Under laboratory conditions, ferroconcrete samples with defects in the form of air bubbles and glue were made and a comparison of the mapping of these defects on thermograms was made.

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.

The processes of extraction and processing of oil and oil products are accompanied by negative consequences at the level of the environment in the form of accidents. They act both on the water area and on land. This article is devoted to the liquidation of emergency oil and oil products spills with the help of natural sorbents. For the analysis, three readily available materials were taken in the national economy of the Russian Federation: wool, wheat straw and sawdust. The main indicative value for the sorbent is its oil capacity (sorption capacity) the amount of absorbed oil, which depends on the degree of specific surface of the material. The higher the specific surface area, the higher the sorption capacity. To determine the oil capacity, each of the materials was placed on a flat surface and artificially contaminated with oil for one hour. During the experiment, the absorbent capacity of the sorbents was determined, which for each proved to be different. Based on the data, graphs are constructed that clearly show the applicability of a material.

In article the UAV three-dimensional mathematical model on the basis of the quadcopter as most the UAV widespread type at the moment is developed. The quadcopter is based on a frame of DJI F-450. The first part of article is devoted to the mathematical description of the quadrotor model, namely: to a kinematics and dynamics models; to forces and torques operating on the UAV; to rotation matrixes; to the assumptions simplifying mathematical expressions. For the description of location and movement of the quadrotor in space also the bound will be used inertial reference frame. Therefore transformation from one frame to another is necessary. The simulation of the operation of the motors 1-4, which are electric drives of direct current, has been performed. Rotation of engines is transferred to screws directly. Movement of the quadcopter in the bound frame is considered in the article by the accounting of the models of a kinematics and dynamics describing the vehicle movement.

The analysis of research on the separation of rice seeds on new types of polymeric sieves showed the absence of regularities that provide the studied processes. There are no dependencies describing the effect of the kinematic parameters of the operation of the sieves on the intensity of the separation processes of rice seeds. We performed a system analysis of the sieves with different types of holes. In the work, mathematical dependences between the amplitude and frequency of oscillations are determined for swinging polymer sieves.

To produce controlled radio frequency and microwave devices such as phased antenna arrays, delay lines, an affordable and inexpensive way of manufacturing varactors in large quantities should be found. One of the promising ways to produce such varactors is based on the use of a BST-paste with a low firing temperature, which allows it to be integrated into a substrate of low-temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC).

In this paper the method of electrochemical oxidation/dispersion of zinc using pulse alternating current with average density of 0.2:1.2 A/cm2 was used. The mixture of ZnO and Zn5(OH)8Cl2·H2O (simonkolleite) was obtained. The application of this product as a photocatalyst provides a practically full removal of methylene blue dye under UV light. When the sample is calcined at 400 °С the decomposition of simonkolleite with a ZnO formation occurs. It is accompanied by decrease in surface area and photocatalytic activity of the material.
