New stellar encounters discovered in the second Gaia data release
Authors: Bailer-Jones C. A. L. , Rybizki J. , Andrae R. , Fouesneau M.
Published: June 2018

Passing stars may play an important role in the evolution of our solar system. We search for close stellar encounters to the Sun among all 7.2 million stars in Gaia DR2 that have six-dimensional phase space data. We characterize encounters by integrating their orbits through a Galactic potential and propagating the correlated uncertainties via a Monte Carlo resampling. After filtering to remove spurious data, we find 694 stars that have median (over uncertainties) closest encounter distances within 5 pc, all occurring within 15 Myr from now. 26 of these have at least a 50% chance of coming closer than 1 pc (and 7 within 0.5 pc), all but one of which are newly discovered here. We confirm some and refute several other previously-identified encounters, confirming suspicions about their data. The closest encounter in the sample is Gl 710, which has a 95% probability of coming closer than 0.08 pc (17 000 AU). Taking mass estimates obtained from Gaia astrometry and multiband photometry for essentially all encounters, we find that Gl 710 also has the largest impulse on the Oort cloud. Using a Galaxy model, we compute the completeness of the Gaia DR2 encountering sample as a function of perihelion time and distance. Only 15% of encounters within 5 pc occurring within ±5 Myr of now have been identified, mostly due to the lack of radial velocities for faint and/or cool stars. Accounting for the incompleteness, we infer the present rate of encounters within 1 pc to be 19.7 ± 2.2 per Myr, a quantity expected to scale quadratically with the encounter distance out to at least several pc. Spuriously large parallaxes in our sample from imperfect filtering would tend to inflate both the number of encounters found and this inferred rate. The magnitude of this effect is hard to quantify.

Probabilistic modeling of hydraulic conditions of tree pipeline networks under conventional boundary conditions
Authors: Vanteeva Olga V.
Published: June 2018

The paper is concerned with the probabilistic modeling of pipeline network hydraulic conditions that occur due to random impacts of the external environment (load of consumers pressures at sources). The research is focused on a network with a tree configuration under conventional boundary conditions (for pressure at a tree root and flow rates at the other nodes) that are specified probabilistically. We propose a topological method for a probabilistic analysis of such network operation. This method makes it possible to determine mathematical means variances and covariances of state variables (pressures at nodes flow rates and pressure losses in branches) by final formulas when traversing the entire tree without laborious matrix operations or calculations of systems of equations. A numerical case study is used to exemplify the efficiency of the proposed approach adequacy of the obtained results and high speed compared to other more general methods similar to Monte-Carlo methods.

Authors: Shalaginova Zoya. I. , Tokarev Vyacheslav V.
Published: June 2018

The paper presents a methodology of multi-level modeling of thermal-hydraulic conditions of large heat supply systems on the basis of the scientific area of research – the theory of hydraulic circuits – that has been developed at MESI SB RAS. The essentials of the applied methods and also the mechanism of their integration with the up-to-date information technologies are described. In combination they make it possible to calculate operating conditions of heat supply systems (HSS) of arbitrary size and structure. The applied approach is based on the multi-level arrangement of data and single-and multi-level calculations. The latter, in turn, are based on application of the methods of equvalenting and decomposition of both the calculation schemes and problems. The methods for multi-level adjustment thermal-hydraulic calculations take into consideration all requirements for feasibility of conditions and are realized as the informationcomputing system (ICS) “ANGARA-TS”. The problems to be solved using the ICS and the technology for development of operating conditions are presented. The ICS is applied to sets of real HSS of big towns to develop conditions and adjustment measures. The composition of the solved tasks implemented in the ICS, the technology of development of operating conditions and an example of a multilevel modeling of the thermal-hydraulic conditions of the HSS in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky are presented.
Placement of measurements for electrical distribution network state estimation
Authors: Golub Irina , Kuzkina Yana
Published: June 2018

The paper is concerned with the problem of placement of the minimum number of smart meters to ensure either the observability of all state variables in distribution network or the observability of voltage magnitudes. Voltage control is important in the distribution network with distributed generation sources which adoption can lead to unpredictable overvoltage exceeding admissible values. The algorithm for smart meters including measurements of voltage magnitudes and active and reactive current injections is similar to the algorithm of choosing the minimum number of phasor measurement units to ensure topological observability. Optimal control of the active distribution network operation requires monitoring to be based on a classical linear state estimation procedure. The results of the research demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approaches and are illustrated by example of a test distribution network.

Authors: Engel Jacek , Mihok Josef , Rybar Radim , Tyulenev Maxim
Published: June 2018

Currently, the mining industry faces the problem of intensifying extraction and processing of mineral raw materials with minimal costs forthe development of mineral deposits. It should be noted that the greatest degree of technological processes mechanization in the development of deposits is achieved by means of hydromechanization. For example, in the development of placer deposits by the open pit method, the application of hydromechanization, with the appropriate parameters, ensures the necessary disintegration of clay inclusions at minimal cost. It allows solving the issues of the most complete extraction of a useful component. Increasing the effectiveness of the use of a hydromechanized method is favored by the use of bulldozers, excavators and other open pit mining machinery for loosening the rocks. With a rational design of the circulating water supply systems, hydromechanization means using the methods of limited waterconsumption. The hydraulic method for mining mineral deposits is taken to the leading place from the point of view of environmental protection. At thesame time, the greatest environmental effect is achieved under the condition of an accurate calculation of the main parameters of hydro-dumps.

Published: June 2018

For efficient operation of a mining enterprise, the decisive role belongs to excavation areas forming volume of production and providing stability of support services. Taken engineering solutions to ensure permissible concentration of methane within working area depends on the nature of methane release (wall face, enclosing rocks, gob area, brokendown coal). Gas drainage operations from a working seam do not always provide reduction in methane emission to the required values and in these cases, effective and stable operation of an enterprise could be provided by the work of a shearer with an intensity that takes into account methane content in the developed seam, method of the working area preparation, ventilation scheme and vehicles characteristics. That is why modeling of broken-down coal transportation from the face, in order to determine the emitted methane, is an is an urgent task. The paper reviews issues of a mathematical model creation for coal transportation technological processes from the excavation area at the mine ‘Polysaevskaya’, JSC ‘SUEKKuzbass’.

Published: June 2018

Modern seismology attaches great importance to the methods of short-term earthquake forecasting. One of these methods is a method based on the registration of disturbances of the atmospheric electric field and the field arising in rocks before earthquakes. Until now, this problem is discussed at the level of hypotheses. The mechanism of perturbations is unclear and the literature does not provide any convincing evidence of the explanation of the observed phenomena – flashes and columns of light, breakdown of electric cables in the earth a few hours before the earthquake and other phenomena. In the present article on the basis of the phenomenon of fast cracks loading discovered in the nineties of the last century [1] the explanation of these phenomena is offered by the solution of a direct problem about an electric field of the hearth of technogenic earthquake in the atmosphere.

Authors: Strelnikov Andrew , Radek Michal , Stolz Markus , Rosenberg Ralf
Published: June 2018

The period of open pit mining development in Kuzbass (Western Siberia, Russia) until the mid-1990s was characterized by the application of rope and hydraulic shovels in coal-bearing zones, the work of which is not effective enough due to a decrease in productivity in mining operations, high losses and dilution of coal. The supply of this type of excavators was fully provided by Russian excavators' manufacturers. With the transition to market relations since the early 90's, in the coal industry of the Kuzbass two interrelated phenomena have occurred. First, the restructuring of coal industry and the massive privatization of licensed development of explored deposits forced a sharp increase in the open pit construction (from 24 in the early 1990's to 62 now). Secondly, the bankruptcy of excavators' manufacturers led to a reduction in the volume of production of domestic rope shovels. So the problem of defining the conditions of hydraulic backhoes use in the coal-bearing zones became very important.

An adequate assessment of the environmental factor at the macro level is important in determining the direction of social-and economic development. Practically, at this level, there is a choice of a “sustainable” or “unsustainable” development. Underestimation of natural resources and environmental damage distorts the indicators of economic development and progress, which leads to the choice of an inefficient social-and-economic direction. If there is no mechanism of compensation for social-environmental-economic damage by the violator(implementation of the polluter pays principle), then this means that the corresponding losses are real for other economic agents and the population.To assess the relationship between the quantity and quality of economic growth, the trends of social-and-economic development of countries and regions, sustainability indicators are needed as targets for assessing the effectiveness of this development. The ecological imperative in sustainable development requires defining it (sustainable development) as the main goal of environmental policy at all levels. In Russia, the issues ofenvironmental policy development at the federal level are worked out the best. At the regional and municipal levels, there are only a few positive examples of the development of environmental policy, including in the Kemerovo region.

This paper presents a research on the content of low-molecular metabolites possessing protecting properties (free proline, reducing sugars, succinic acid) in Taraxacum officinale Wigg. which grows on the mining wastes of Kedrovsky open pit in Kemerovo region. The paper also researches the topic of relation between the content of the above substances and morphometric characteristics of the plant such as weight of leaves and roots, length of roots and surface area of leaves. In the course of the research in was established that adverse edaphic effects of mining waste cause adaptive changes of Taraxacum, which affect the plant on biochemical and organ level. As for biochemical level the increase in content of low-molecular protectors in leaves and roots was revealed. As for organ level the evident reduction of morphometric characteristics (weight of leaves and roots, length of root, surface area of leaf) was revealed which can be interpreted as an evidence of xerophytesation increasing the plant’s survivability in hostile environment. The revealed adaptive changes described above form the plant’s resistance to the extreme environmental factors and present an evidence of plant’s ability to fully conduct its vital functions in the conditions of the mining waste.

Published: June 2018

It is established that the problem of effective and rational land use for environmentally friendly development of mineral resources is that it is connected with only one goal – to ensure coal mining, after which no new sources of income are available. At the same time, the land use economy entirely depends on the legal regime of the land, which determines its reaction to the slightest changes in legislation. Modern models of efficient and rational land use for the environmentally friendly development of Kuzbass subsoil are not currently developed. Under the circumstances, there is a need to develop a comprehensive theory of such land use, aimed at ensuring sustainable development of the region. The justification of the principles and mechanism of management of the land fund of mining enterprises determines its effectiveness. Establishing the dependence of effective and rational land use for environmentally friendly subsoil development characterizes a new level of information interaction between sciences (land management, mining and economy). Practical application of this theory lies in effective subsoil use.

Published: June 2018

Static and dynamic loads impact on a powered roof support during its operation. The dynamic loads lead to a number of consequences for the construction and the entire hydraulic system. With the increase of depth and intensity of exploitation, the number of events during which the dynamic load is greater increases. Therefore, it is necessary to research the whole unit of the support and its components under the impact of dynamic load. The article presents the results of tests of a hydraulic leg designed to work in the powered support and dynamically loaded with free fall drop. An innovative hydraulic system type DOH was mounted in the subject leg. As a result of the conducted tests, the dynamic parameters of the tested system were determined. The aim of the research was also to determine the impact of drop’s energy on the operating parameters of the tested system. The tested hydraulic system is a part of an innovative electro hydraulic control system of the powered roof support. The Authors believe that the obtained results will allow to create opportunities for the practical application of the tested system and the entire wireless control system of the mining roof support.

The importance of the natural resource and environmental factors in the development of the modern economy is becoming more important in the context of energy security and the quality of economic growth. This is also due to the fact that the state’s policy in increasing GDP has been adjusted to a qualitative social-and-economic development. In this regard, the quantitative measurement of the quantity and quality ratio of economic growth is relevant. The rise of the global economy as a whole and its individual territories is due to both a high-tech breakthrough and the development of raw materials industries – oil, gas, coal and metallurgy. Currently, to meet the needs of society in natural resources, environmental goods and services, ever-increasing costs are required for expanded reproduction of the mineral resource base and compensation for negative consequences resulting from the degradation of ecological systems and pollution of the natural environment.

Published: June 2018

The subject matter of this article is incentives for innovations in entrepreneurship. There are two models of entrepreneurship which exist in developed market economies – traditional and innovative. Innovations have never been so important as they are now, which holds particularly true for small and medium-sized businesses. As Peter F.Drucker formulated it, “Innovation is the specific tool of entrepreneurs, the means by which they exploit change as an opportunity for a different business or a different service.” The methods by which innovations are encouraged change from country to country. The choice of such methods depends on economic, political and other conditions for a country&s development. By encouraging innovative activities, governments enhance the effectiveness of innovative systems and create favorable conditions for enterprises to engage in science and technology. For the EU, which falls behind the USA and Japan in so far as innovation technologies are concerned, it is a highpriority task to implement the innovation development strategy and to transform its economy in accordance with the up-to-date model by 2020. The aim of such strategy is to achieve industrial leadership as well as to support business, including small and medium-sized businesses.

Creation of institution of raiding is due to imperfections of market-based instruments for redistribution of ownership, a lack of regular market valuation of liquid assets of enterprises, unclear system of registration of property rights, low information clarity of the data, growth of corporate conflicts, imperfection of corporate legislation. The effect of raider acquisitions is damage to economy, social sphere and investment climate of Kuzbass and Russia. The wave of raiding is now aimed at coal mining enterprises of Kuzbass, which have a stable holding structure and rising property prices due to the development of strategic markets. Effective fight against raiding is possible only with using of a systematic approach. This means development of activities of legal protection from raiders and elimination of inequalities company’s laws to the current legislation. At the state level it involves publication of relevant legal acts to combat raiding. For effective fight against raiding at the level of the enterprise it is necessary to develop in advance a complex of preventive measures of protection taking into account characteristic features of its activity.
On the Methodological Unity of Post-Industrial and Sustainable Development as the Environment Preservation Imperative
Authors: Marasova Daniela , Ligatto Massimo , Cassati Daniel , Zolotukhin Vladimir
Published: June 2018

Each stage of the economic development of any society is associated with the consumption of natural resources. Thus, the impact of human society on the environment determines the environmental conditionality of the economy. The problem of economy – the maximum satisfaction of needs – becomes the central problem of ecology, as the development of civilization has caused a large volume of resources’ consumption. National economies can be at one of the following development stages: traditional, industrial, post-industrial society. Each stage is characterized by a certain state, the structure of economy, the type and amount of used resources, the attitude to the natural environment and, accordingly, the type of ecological and economic development. In an industrial society, the environmental conditioning of the economy is associated with the use and minimization of resource consumption in order to increase the economic efficiency, but not with understanding that the resources are exhaustible and non-renewable. Therefore, when moving to the postindustrial stage of development, it is important to understand its connection with sustainable development, which consists in synchronizing the innovative development of the productive forces of industry and the "green" nature-saving technologies.

The development programs of coal mining enterprises pay special attention to the increase in production potential and the penetration of new market niches, as well as the organization of rational interaction with related industries. The creation of clusters in such conditions contributes to the sustainable development of the region. The exhibition activities of coal mining enterprises play an important role in establishing rational interaction with companies of coal and related industries, thus creating favorable conditions for the modernization of Russian coal mining and processing enterprises. The article focuses on the pre-show stage of the exhibition activity of coal mining enterprises devoted to planning and preparing for the exhibition event. The series of decisions made during the stage include setting goals of participation, choosing the exhibition event, determining the form of participation, designing the stand, planning onstand and off-stand activities, preparing information, advertising and souvenir materials, recruiting and training of the exhibition staff.

Published: June 2018

The system of vocational education formed in the USSR was poorly adapted to the activity in market economy conditions, therefore, the 1990s became the period of its adaptation to the market through a painful transformation. The paper analyzes the experience in target-oriented management of the of vocational education system of Kemerovo Region (Kuzbass) in the 2010s. New institutional mechanisms for training skilled workers and technicians for the region’s coal industry are discussed. The authors conduct structural analysis of technical and vocational education in Kuzbass and identify major challenges and mechanisms for their overcoming, which have laid the foundations for further development of the education system.

The use of sand deposits in buildings for energy storage
Authors: Ratuszny Paweł
Published: June 2018

The aim of the research is to prepare data for the design of heat stores with sand filling. In buildings without basement, spaces between foundation walls are filled with material easily compacted, which forms a solid and durable basis for the ground level of the building. As a rule, this material is sand of various grain size, and foundation walls are insulated. In this way, a space filled with a granular material is formed, which, with a properly designed heat exchanger attached, may be used as sensible-heat storage. Such a store makes a good lower level source for heat pumps - source of heat at the time of low temperatures outside, which significantly raises the coefficient of efficiency of the system. Low construction cost of the heat exchanger is an additional argument for the use of the space between the foundation walls for the purpose of building a heat store. This paper presents the results of studies that allow of the appropriate design of the heat exchanger in a heat store with a granular deposit. The deposit temperature changes in time have been studied, dependent on the distance from the source of heat and humidity of the material. Study was carried out for the sands used for filling the space between the foundation walls.

Published: June 2018

This paper presents a numerical model of an accumulating solar wall with transparent insulation (ASW-TI). The objective of the simulation was to evaluate the energy efficiency of ASW-TI for different climatic conditions in Poland, i.e. for high, medium, and low irradiation. For each climate, the calculations were made for the entire heating period. As a result, temperature distributions in a wall at different times of the process and the energy balance of the wall in particular months and during the entire heating period were obtained.
Sustainable transport development and passenger transport demand in Poland
Authors: Szczuraszek Tomasz , Chmielewski Jacek
Published: June 2018

Development of sustainable transportation is a process which involves promoting efficient transport systems meeting social expectations, while reducing any sub-optimal or harmful effects on public health, natural environment, economy and urban planning. Therefore, in the case of passenger transport, the most effective measure to achieve sustainable transport development is to maximize the share of public transport. This paper analyses trends in changes of demand for passenger transport in European Union Member States, in Poland and in Kujawsko-Pomorskie province, including in urban and non-urban areas. Based on collected data and extensive transport-related research of the authors, including surveys of residents, the most important conditions have been defined which affect passenger transport demand in Kujawsko-Pomorskie province, and a forecast has been attempted of the demand in three different scenarios of economic development (optimistic, stable and regressive) for various years. The projected public transport demand has been established on the basis of simulations using a proprietary transport model. Results of these calculations revealed surprising conclusions which indicate unfavourable trends in changes of the analysed demand and insignificant differences in projected transport needs, regardless of the selected economic development option for the country and the province.
