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 article considers theoretical bases of technological process for modified wood production for sleepers manufacture. Currently, sleepers are made mainly of natural softwoods, the stock of which is severely limited. In addition, sleepers made of natural wood have short wear-life. In this connection, there is a need to create a new high-tech resource-saving production of railway sleepers from modified wood by impregnating it with antiseptic and stabilizer compounds and carrying out thermal and mechanical modification of wood. For this purpose, a systematic analysis of physical phenomena underlying the technological operations has been performed and on the basis of which the curves for workpiece heating along cross-section in an oily liquid based on similarity criteria has been theoretically calculated, and on the basis of the physical phenomena of heat and mass transfer the duration of workpieces drying has been calculated. Methods of impregnation, loading and depressurization during pressing have been got. Based on system analysis of physical phenomena and performed calculations, structure and regimes of technological process for modified wood manufacturing have been developed.

The purpose of the study is to develop a software – oriented algorithm for calculating flat rod systems with variable length modulus of elasticity. The object of study – a flat rod system, located in a single load, the elements of which are interfaced at the nodes rigidly or pivotally; the shape of the axes and the conditions of the support are set. A special finite element is developed on the basis of the finite element method in the form of a mixed method. To calculate the elements of the response matrix and the vector of freight coefficients, a numerical integration procedure is used. Examples of calculation of cantilever rods in two variants are given: with a variable length modulus of elasticity; and a rod having three, five and seven sections along the length made of different materials. The comparison with the results of other authors is given. A flat frame of four finite elements with variable modulus of elasticity is calculated. The results of solving the examples indicate the correct operation of the proposed algorithm. It is shown that the parameters of the stress-strain state of the structure can be adjusted by changing the properties of the material.

The paper deals with statically determinate and statically indeterminate reinforced beams of a rectangular cross-section of bimodule material loaded with a uniformly distributed load. Since for heterogeneous materials, the elastic modulus for tension and compression are different, the work aimed to study the influence of different boundary conditions in statically indeterminate beams on SSS. It is shown that the magnitude of the maximum normal stresses is less than the stresses found without taking into account the bimodule nature of the beam material, both in statically determinate and in statically indeterminate beams. The maximum normal stress and maximum deflection decrease with the transition to a statically indeterminate beam from a similarly statically determined beam by replacing the supports. The method used in work makes it possible to clarify the calculation of strength and rigidity, taking into account the bimodule nature of the material of the reinforced beams, and also to select the optimal fastening of the beams that ensure the bearing capacity of the structure with material saving.

The properties and main characteristics of the large-tonnage waste of industry - hydrolytic lignin, as well as the direction of its rational use are considered. The results of an experiment on the effect of the lignin of the Kosivinsk hydrolysis plant on the main properties of the cement-sand composition are presented. It is shown that the addition of hydrolytic lignin in an amount of 15-20% by mass in exchange for the binder will yield a building material with a mark of average density D1900-D2000 and a class of compressive strength B5-B7.5.

The introduction of the comprehensive program "Boundary control" is considered on the example of a control and experimental group. The results of the effectiveness of this complex have been proved practically and theoretically: the progress of cadets has increased, and calculations of statistical estimates have shown that the calculated value is less than the critical one. That is, it can be concluded that the differences in the estimates between the experimental and control groups are statistically insignificant at a given significance level. That is, for comparison, approximately equal in knowledge two groups were taken.
