This article presents a study of the dependence of the deflation of fine grain dust on the air flow rate, as well as other factors affecting it. This study is important for the summary calculation of the dispersion of emissions of harmful substances from unorganized sources of enterprises into the atmospheric urban air, as well as for the selection of dust suppression measures and a better understanding of the processes of dust propagation.

Keywords: grain dust, dispersed composition, aerodynamic characteristics, specific deflation, dust propagation, atmospheric air

The article is devoted to the study of flange beam to column connections to analyze their nonlinear behavior. In the course of the study, a simplified analytical model was created using the method of variable elasticity parameters to determine the stress-strain state of these connections. The proposed mechanical model makes it possible to predict the strength, stiffness, ductility of joints, as well as possible types of fracture and deformation mechanisms of the bent elements of flange joints. This model can be useful for engineers and specialists in the field of design and analysis of civil structures. The proposed refined component model is an analogue of the Eurocode 3 model. The paper presents a numerical experiment on modeling the junction of a beam with a column by the finite element method. A comparative analysis of the results obtained with the results of tests of flange connections of steel building structures performed by the University of Sydney (USYD) is presented.
