A mathematical model for contaminant outbursts during liquid fuel combustion at boiler plants on the railways

The paper is investigating the problem of mathematical design of experiments in ecology research of a boiler plant running on liquid fuel at a railway company. As a result regression equations describing contaminant outbursts in the products of fuel burning depending on the factors of humidity of water and boiler oil emulsion and the excess air coefficient, are obtained.

On application of chemical reagents in neutralization of emergency leakage of hazardous chemicals

The paper contains analysis of the physical-chemical behavior of hazardous chemicals and chemical reagents. The analysis relies on the experience of wrecking on chemically hazardous objects and transport. A method oriented for the emergency situations on the railway transport, namely leakage of hazardous chemicals, is developed. The most efficient chemical reagents are revealed and the amount of effort to neutralize possible leakage of hazardous chemicals is estimated.

Analysis of the European reforms on the railways

The paper contains investigation of the reasons of railway reforms in Europe. An estimation of liberalization effect on the railways on the increase of freight and passenger transit is made and a positive correlation between the liberalization degree and improvement of the state of railway branch on the transport market of the European Union is shown. Finally, the rating of the Russian Railways is determined and the positive results of the second stage of reforms are noted.

On the enhancement of efficiency of locomotive operation

The paper is aimed for the burning issue of improvement of the locomotive operation efficiency. The three groups of activities targeting at the problem are pointed out, namely, the problems of locomotive works, problems of locomotive repair plants and problems of exploiting organizations. Finally, modern technologies allowing an increase in reliability, improvement in locomotive depots and costs reduction, are discussed.

On the analysis of stability of formation

The paper is investigating the problem of formation stability within the point of first limiting state. A refining method of discrete analysis of stability of the formation is proposed, taking into account weakened substrate at certain points of formation, dynamics of the rolling stock and self weight pressure of the formation. The formation is disjoined into transverse blocks and the tangential stresses are calculated and compared to the measured results of the substrate resistance to shear.

On the dynamic interaction of an elastic cylindrical shell with a fluid laminar stream inside in application to pipeline transportation

The paper is concerned with an investigation of the flow of a viscous incompressible fluid under the harmonic pressure in a circular pipe-shell. The hydroelasticity problem is posted and solved in application to pipeline transport. The flow parameters and elastic displacements of the shell are obtained along with numerical investigation of their amplitude and phase parameters. The results for the resonance frequencies are also presented.

Main design principles of the system of operative control of transportation process

The paper is concerned with analysis of structural system of the joint-stock company “Russian Railways” within the framework of operational management. The structure includes controlling and controlled parts, which interact through data transfer. The controlling part has both vertical and horizontal division based on dispatcher centers. The issues of tall structure construction and environment interaction with significant perturbation of the operation system are discussed.
