Determination of the requirement for transportation and technological machines by clusterization of oil and gas production departments
The article considers the analysis of production indicators of oil and gas production departments with the aim of clustering them for the subsequent determination of the need for automobiles and technological machines. The departments have different sizes, power, are in different conditions, are characterized by different performance indicators, but at the same time they are equipped with vehicles according to the same standards. This leads to problems in ensuring the uninterrupted transport and technological service of the main production. In a number of departments, situations arise when the planned number of transport and technological machines is not enough to perform technological operations for the repair or maintenance of wells. In this case, vehicles are sent from another sub-division, thereby limiting their own transport service capabilities. Fleet planning often takes place taking into account the historical conditions of the department, which is generally applicable for old departments with an established well stock, but practically does not work for newly formed departments with large volumes of newly commissioned wells and complicated production conditions. These subdivisions are equipped with vehicles in relation to existing workshops with similar indicators, which most often leads to an insufficient number of machines and downtime of the main production due to lack of machines. In this regard, it is necessary to search for and justify those production indicators of departments that determine their differentiation. The aim of the paper is to increase the efficiency of transport and technological service of oil and gas production facilities based on determining the patterns of influence of production indicators of production and gas shops on the need for transport and technological machines and developing, on this basis, differentiated standards for equipping units with vehicles. Using machine learning methods, the clustering of production units was carried out, and the factors that determine the distribution of departments into four groups were identified. The main factors include the stock of wells in the department and the degree of complexity of this stock. Groups are determined by the degree of change in these factors. The presented approach and the resulting distribution can be used as a basis for more efficient standardization of the needs of departments in automobiles and technological machines and also as part of decision support systems for vehicle fleet management
JUMPING FROG METHOD FOR OPTIMAL CLASSIFICATIONS
In the article the problem of finding optimal classifications on a finite set is investigated. It is shown that the problem of finding an optimal classification is generated by a tolerance relation on a finite set. It is also reduced to an optimization problem on a set of permutations. It is proposed a modification of the mixed jumping frogs to find suboptimal solutions of the problem of classification.In the article the problem of finding optimal classifications on a finite set is investigated.

Millisecond-range electron spin memory in singly-charged InP quantum dots
We report millisecond-range spin memory of resident electrons in an ensemble
of InP quantum dots (QDs) under a small magnetic field of 0.1 T applied along
the optical excitation axis at temperatures up to about 5 K. A pump-probe
photoluminescence (PL) technique is used for optical orientation of electron
spins by the pump pulses and for study of spin relaxation over the long time
scale by measuring the degree of circular polarization of the probe PL as a
function of pump-probe delay. Dependence of spin decay rate on magnetic field
and temperature suggests two-phonon processes as the dominant spin relaxation
mechanism in this QDs at low temperatures.Comment: 3 pages, 4 figures, submitted to Appl. Phys. Let
Integrity of H1 helix in prion protein revealed by molecular dynamic simulations to be especially vulnerable to changes in the relative orientation of H1 and its S1 flank
In the template-assistance model, normal prion protein (PrPC), the pathogenic
cause of prion diseases such as Creutzfeldt-Jakob (CJD) in human, Bovine
Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) in cow, and scrapie in sheep, converts to
infectious prion (PrPSc) through an autocatalytic process triggered by a
transient interaction between PrPC and PrPSc. Conventional studies suggest the
S1-H1-S2 region in PrPC to be the template of S1-S2 -sheet in PrPSc, and
the conformational conversion of PrPC into PrPSc may involve an unfolding of H1
in PrPC and its refolding into the -sheet in PrPSc. Here we conduct a
series of simulation experiments to test the idea of transient interaction of
the template-assistance model. We find that the integrity of H1 in PrPC is
vulnerable to a transient interaction that alters the native dihedral angles at
residue Asn, which connects the S1 flank to H1, but not to interactions
that alter the internal structure of the S1 flank, nor to those that alter the
relative orientation between H1 and the S2 flank.Comment: A major revision on statistical analysis method has been made. The
paper now has 23 pages, 11 figures. This work was presented at 2006 APS March
meeting session K29.0004 at Baltimore, MD, USA 3/13-17, 2006. This paper has

Проблема фальсификации зернистой икры лососевых рыб и пути решения
The paper examines the problem of falsification of edible fish products, which concerns producers and consumers worldwide. Food products are most often falsified by imparting them some of the most typical features, for example appearance, upon the overall worsening or losing the other most significant properties of nutritional value, including safety. Market analysis shows that there is a tendency of replacing natural roe with imitated roe by its selling in metal and glass jars with indication of the address of the Far Eastern producer. It has been established that the protein content is not higher than one percent upon imitated roe production using modern technologies. To establish product authenticity, a methodology for measuring the protein mass fraction in grained salmonid roe by the Kjeldahl method was developed. The metrological characteristic of the developed methodology in three concentration ranges is presented. The used values can serve for identification of claimed properties with the specified indicators of accuracy, trueness, repeatability and reproducibility. In addition to the methodology, product organoleptic indicators are proposed, including assessment of appearance, consistency, taste, odor, as well as specific features of the cooking test that can serve as distinctive features and are taken into consideration in identification of grained salmonid roe.В статье рассмотрена проблема фальсификации пищевой рыбной продукции, которая беспокоит производителей и потребителей во всем мире. Фальсификация пищевых продуктов чаще всего осуществляется путем придания продуктам отдельных наиболее типичных признаков — например, внешнего вида при общем ухудшении или утрате остальных наиболее значимых свойств пищевой ценности, в том числе безопасности. Анализ рынка показал, что наблюдается тенденция подмены натуральной икры имитированной путем реализации ее в металлических и стеклянных банках с указанием адреса Дальневосточного производителя. Установлено, что при производстве имитированной икры по современным технологиям содержание белка не превышает одного процента. Для установления подлинности продукции разработана методика измерений массовой доли белка в зернистой икре лососевых рыб методом Кьельдаля. Представлена метрологическая характеристика разработанной методики в трех диапазонах концентраций. Использованные значения могут служить для идентификации заявленных свойств с установленными показателями точности, правильности, повторяемости и воспроизводимости. В дополнении к методике предложены органолептические показатели продукции, включающие оценку внешнего вида, консистенции, вкуса, запаха, а также особенности пробы на варку, которые могут служить в качестве отличительных признаков и учитываться при проведении идентификации икры зернистой лососевых видов рыб
