The article discusses a software module developed by the authors for automatic generation of program code based on UML diagrams. The relevance of developing this module is due to the limitations of existing foreign code generation tools related to functionality, ease of use, support for modern technologies, as well as their unavailability in Russian Federation. The module analyzes JSON files obtained by exporting UML diagrams from the draw.io online service and converts them into code in a selected programming language (Python, C++, Java) or DDL scripts for DBMS (PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL). The Python language and the Jinja2 template engine were used as the main development tools. The operation of the software module is demonstrated using the example of a small project "Library Management System". During the study, a series of tests were conducted on automatic code generation based on the architectures of software information systems developed by students of the Software Engineering bachelor's degree program in the discipline "Design and Architecture of Software Systems". The test results showed that the code generated using the developed module fully complies with the original UML diagrams, including the structure of classes, relationships between them, as well as the configuration of the database and infrastructure (Docker Compose). The practical significance of the investigation is that the proposed concept of generating program code based on visual models of UML diagrams built in the popular online editor draw.io significantly simplifies the development of software information systems, and can be used for educational purposes.

The article is devoted to the study of the influence of the choice of the calculation scheme on the accuracy of the engineering assessment of the behavior of monolithic reinforced concrete frame structures. Various types of models are considered: rod, plate and volumetric, taking into account both linear and physical nonlinearity. It is emphasized that the adequacy of accounting for the spatial interaction of elements, the reliability of the assessment of forces and stresses, as well as the possibility of optimizing design solutions, especially under seismic and wind loads, depend on the correctness of the adopted calculation scheme. As part of the study, a single-span reinforced concrete frame was modeled, the load on which varied from 5 to 55 kN. A comparison of the calculated results with experimental data was carried out. It is shown that models that take into account physical nonlinearity and use more detailed modeling (for example, volumetric finite elements) provide the greatest accuracy in predicting deflections and stresses in the structure. The obtained results confirm the necessity of a careful approach to the choice of the calculation scheme in design, especially in the design of high-rise buildings and structures in seismically dangerous areas. Recommendations are made on the rational use of models of different levels of detail in engineering practice.

The stability of inorganic ultraviolet pigments synthesized from phosphogypsum in relation to the action of a number of solvents has been studied. It is noted that under the conditions studied, the samples are stable in the presence of water and solutions of organic solvents, and treatment of the samples with concentrated solutions of sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide leads to a decrease in luminescent properties. The luminescence ability of the samples remains when heated to 800 ° C. Based on the developed pigments, building mixes can be obtained that have luminescent properties when irradiated with ultraviolet light.

This article examines the key features of the functional planning and architectural spatial organization of the typological group of public buildings and structures in the renovation of industrial buildings in coastal areas in order to create promising models of two different types of multifunctional spaces: creative clusters and multifunctional complexes. Both approaches take advantage of the structural and spatial advantages of these buildings while simultaneously implementing modern architectural and environmental techniques. For both types of renovation, adaptive space reuse, integration of green elements, sustainable energy solutions, increased accessibility, and preservation of industrial heritage are common methods. The specific changes for creative clusters include the transformation of the main workshops into flexible exhibition and cultural spaces, the inclusion of artistic elements and the creation of public areas. Conversely, multifunctional complexes turn these spaces into office areas, coworking areas, commercial premises and residential apartments. Overall, these renovation models not only revitalize the physical environment, but also contribute to the cultural, social and economic development of coastal urban areas, creating an incentive for future urban renewal projects.

The article presents the results of static and dynamic calculations of a 14-storey administrative building with two underground floors. The building is located in the city of Sochi. The seismicity of the construction area is 9 points. As a result of calculations under seismic influence, characteristic isofields of movements of the building system in different directions, stress isofields in load-bearing monolithic reinforced concrete floors, and force plots in core elements were obtained. According to the results of the verification calculations of the load-bearing reinforced concrete structures of the building frame, it was revealed that the strength of the individual columns of the underground floors of the building is not ensured. Options for reinforcing columns using various options are presented: classic reinforced concrete cage, metal cage, pasting with composite tapes, steel-reinforced concrete cage. As a result of comparing all reinforcement options, the most optimal reinforcement option was adopted from the point of view of technology, economic feasibility and strength parameters.

A comparative study of three reinforcement options for reinforced concrete beams has been carried out: without reinforcement, with reinforcement with carbon tape both along the entire span length, and with partial reinforcement of the span zone with an end mechanical anchoring with carbon bundles. Numerical modeling has been performed, diagrams of bending moments and force distribution have been constructed, and the coefficients of the safety margin of the construction system have been estimated. The effectiveness of the schemes is substantiated in terms of strength, taking into account manufacturability and material consumption. It is shown that the use of mechanical anchoring with harnesses increases the reliability of the system while reducing material consumption.

During long-term operation of reinforced concrete structures of buildings and structures under the influence of various loads and impacts, destructive changes occur, which lead to a decrease in the bearing capacity and serviceability, and, as a consequence, to the need to use structural reinforcement. In compressed elements, as is known, concrete destruction occurs due to reaching tensile stresses in the transverse direction of the strength limit. In this case, one of the effective methods for strengthening such structures is the creation of transverse ferrules from composite materials. At the same time, the studies show relatively low stresses in the elements of composite reinforcement when the structure reaches destruction. The current task of this study is to study the effect of prestressing elements made of carbon composite materials on changing the physical and mechanical properties of concrete under compression. The technology of creating prestressing is considered and the results of testing experimental concrete samples are presented. It was found that reinforcing elements with prestressed ferrules increases the strength of concrete by more than 2 times.

The reliability of electric power systems is largely determined by the insulation condition of electrical equipment. Insulation damage can lead to power losses, reduced service life of lines and devices, and emergency shutdowns, so insulation diagnostics is critical to prevent technological disruptions. However, traditional approaches to insulation monitoring are often labor-intensive and subjective. In this regard, the role of computer vision and deep learning methods, capable of automatically detecting insulation defects and thereby increasing the efficiency and objectivity of monitoring, is increasing. This study considers the application of modern architectures of deep convolutional neural networks for the problem of recognizing insulating elements of electrical equipment. Particular attention is paid to the comparative analysis of several state-of-the-art models. The considered architectures show effective results and provide deep multi-scale analysis of scene features based on convolutional networks. In this paper, the models are used in conjunction with image augmentation algorithms. Data augmentation allows you to artificially expand limited sets of training images through various transformations, which is especially important for a small dataset. The application of these methods is aimed at improving the quality of training data and reducing the risk of overfitting models, as well as overcoming the imbalance of classes in the sample by generating additional fault samples. The proposed approach includes conducting a sequential comparative experiment on a small and limited set of image data from power facilities. A comparison was made of the accuracy and completeness metrics of various neural network architectures when combining various augmentation strategies in order to identify a combination of models and data augmentation methods that provide the highest recognition accuracy. The results of the study will help determine the most effective augmentation models and techniques suitable for real-life operating conditions at power facilities, taking into account complex backgrounds, variable lighting, and different angles of equipment shooting. Identifying such optimal solutions based on deep learning is intended to improve the reliability and efficiency of automated insulation monitoring in the power industry.
