The constructions of directional microphones of the "linear" type and the test procedure are described. On a controlled lane of the highway, full-scale studies of microphones produced by the authors were carried out. Thus, the relative error in the measurement of microphones No. 1 and 2 was found, which was 12.1 and 13%, respectively. The minimum error is detected with a microphone of the "linear" type No. 1, whose slots are located on the sides on four sides

Gas-powder dynamics within the off-axis nozzle of the Precitec YC52 laser cladding head (Germany) has been studied using the original Tepler shadow setup, the high-speed tracing system and the laser Doppler anemometer. The length of the laminar part of the gas-powder flow has been optimized for variety of the transport and shielding gas flow, as well as the diameter of the orifice of cyclone. Powder jet at the nozzle’s outlet follows the carrier gas flow structure. In case of 4 mm nozzle’s diameter, the powder stream separates into two stable vortex structures near the surface of the substrate, causing significant losses of powder particles (about 2/3 of the total powder mass) within the melting zone, which finally reduces the efficiency of the deposition process and the powder utilization. Practical recommendations on the application of the optical diagnostic to optimize gas-powder jets for laser cladding are provided.

The main problem is to determine the bandwidth of the power cable system (PCS) through monitoring of the thermalfluctuation processes cable. Investigated the temperature field in the cross section of the cable in accordance with the theory of heat conduction. The results of studying the thermal conductivity of the PCS. In Matlab, using the system equations Fourier transform in the cylindrical coordinate system is built, the temperature gradient in the cross section of the cable and the environment. On the basis of the thermalfluctuation theory to examine the process of destruction of insulation by thermal vibrations of the atoms, with the partial discharges (PD). The study of failure-free operation of the insulating material PCS. Determined the probability of occurrence of the CR in dependence on influencing factors (temperature, insulation, number and size of inclusions). The distribution of the probability of occurrence of the CR in dependence on a value of density inhomogeneities insulation (y) and the energy of rupture of chemical bonds (D).

The article deals with the movement of erythrocytes along the narrow capillaries with a diameter smaller than the erythrocyte diameter. Red blood cell in narrow capillary has tank-treading motion. The erythrocyte rotation frequency reaches several dozen revolutions per second. Electric charges located on the surface of the erythrocyte, move together with the erythrocyte membrane and create a magnetic field in the surrounding space. A two-dimensional model of erythrocyte movement along narrow capillaries was constructed. If the erythrocyte surface area and erythrocyte charge are known, then the density of charges on the erythrocyte membrane can be determined. The magnetic field strength of a moving charged particle can be determined if the particle charge, the particle velocity, the distance from the particle to the point at which the magnetic field strength is determined, the angle between the direction of the particle velocity and the direct connecting particle, and the point at which the tension is determined are known. The total strength of the magnetic field of several moving charged particles is defined as the vector sum of the magnetic field strengths of the individual moving charged particles. In the two-dimensional model it is assumed that the red blood cells are rectangles that move along the capillary, and the erythrocyte membrane is the sides of the rectangle. Discrete charges are located on the sides of the rectangle and move either clockwise or counterclockwise. It is possible two variants. Their membranes either rotate in the same direction or in opposite directions. Calculations were carried out for both variants and at different rates of rotation of erythrocyte membranes (from 0 to 50 revolutions per second) and distances between red blood cells. It is shown that at distances between erythrocytes smaller than the two capillary diameters, the influence of neighboring red blood cells can be neglected (the difference is less than 3%).

The article deals with the issues of impact interaction of particles with layers of dispersed material of different thickness. The influence of the interaction velocity and the thickness of the substrate on the appearance and structure of the collision result is investigated. It is established that at low speeds there is a crater formation while the particle is on the substrate surface. With the growth of the interaction rate, the formation of a crown is observed, and particles penetrate into the substrate material. Experimentally determined the values of the velocity and thickness of the substrate, corresponding to the beginning of the formation of the crown.

The problems of young families are analyzed. The relevance of the study of the social welfare of modern young families is shown. A cognitive model of achievement and stabilization of the social welfare of a young family was constructed on the basis of the results of the study ""The Life of a Young Family in the Rostov Region"", 2017. It is shown that the basic model of achieving social well-being is a two-loop scheme with positive feedback. Each of the contours of which corresponds to the basic characteristics: socio-cultural and economic well-being. The principal problem of the factor of satisfaction of needs is revealed. The necessity of creating a full-fledged monitoring system of the socio-economic level of a young family included in the social policy framework of the state is shown.
