This paper treats the problem of hierarchical control of a butylene-butane distillation column (BBDC). A hierarchical control system with three levels is proposed for BBDC. First hierarchical level, which is represented by the column with its conventional automation, is simulated and the results led to the idea of using a decoupler for the process crossed channels. Thus, it is proposed a nonlinear decoupler which determines automatically its parameters and type. At the second hierarchical level are implemented two internal model controllers for the top and bottom concentrations. Finally, the third hierarchical level consists of an optimal control system for the butylene-butane separation process.

For the control of greenhouse environment parameters, a combined control system of the temperature and humidity inside the greenhouse according to the fuzzy control theory is design, which is of distributed control structure. The whole control system is divided into upper computer (personal computer) and the lower machine (SCM). Upper machine and lower machine adopt the Modbus fieldbus to communicate, which can effectively improve the efficiency of communication, to ensure accurate communication. Tracking control of temperature and humidity in the control system uses fuzzy control technology, which can effectively summarize and utilize human control experience, and regulate the environmental parameters according to need of crop growth automatically. Finally, through experiment, it is proved that the control system has achieved the anticipated target.

Several researchers have revealed the huge potentials of rescue robots in disaster zones. In addition to searching for victims, these intelligent machines are also effective in obtaining useful information from the zones. These functions help to optimize the search and rescue missions. However, the fact that rescue robots have to operate in risky and dangerous environments necessitates the need for such machines to have an efficient motion control system, which can help them to operate autonomously or with minimal human control. This paper reviews the use of reliable controllers in enhancing the sensing capabilities of rescue robots. Huge potential of sensorless sensing method in the rescue robots are highlighted. It is shown that the use of sensorless sensing method enables developer to create simple and cheaper robots for various complex situations. Thus, it is imperative to conduct further studies on how to optimize the operations of robots that lack sensors.

Urban planning is considered one of the most critical topics in the design and development strategies of cities. There are a vast amount of urban planning rule sets that focus on dominating the geometrical perspective on other approaches when it comes to planning decisions. In this paper, a different point of view towards urban planning is suggested concentrating on the topological analysis and relation between city elements. Streets of cities are chosen to reflect this topological relation and to investigate the topological relations to the limits; six different sized cities were selected for analysis; three large cities and three relatively small ones. Results of study uncovered the hierarchical pattern underlying in street structure of cities; analyses showed that street networks in large cities have a higher degree of hierarchical level than in relatively small cities. Urban planners can get benefit from the results of analyses in this study to make better planning decisions in large or small cities. The paper provides analysis results towards achieving the optimum goals of urban planning to make cities more living and more efficient.

Предложена авторская трактовка понятия «конкурентоспособность товара» как способности товара (объекта обмена) демонстрировать наибольшую потребительскую привлекательность на данном рынке. Констатируется отсутствие сред ученых и специалистов единого мнение по поводу теории, согласно которой покупатель выбирает товары на данном рынке. Предложена авторская трактовка понятия «кибернетической антропологии» как науки, рассматривающей человека как компьютеризированную систему управления, которая функционирует на основании определенных программ (врожденных и приобретенных). Выявлены четыре элемента системы управления «Человек»: 1) Органическая машина (объект управления); 2) Управляющий орган (субъект управления; 3) Устройство «прямой связи» (Исполнительное устройство); 4) Устройство «обратной связи» (Коммуникационное устройство). Установлено, что Управляющий орган состоит из трех элементов: 1) Совершенный компьютер; 2) Сенсор; 3) Персональный компьютер. Предложены авторские трактовки понятий «чувство» и «эмоция» с позиции кибернетической антропологии. Выявлены четыре базовые программы психопрограммистики, а также три базовые программы теории выбора товаров на рынке (теории принятия решения о покупке). The author's interpretation of the concept of "competitiveness of a product" as the ability of a product (object of exchange) to demonstrate the greatest consumer appeal in this market is proposed. The absence of a consensus among scientists and specialists about the theory according to which the buyer chooses goods in this market is stated. The author's interpretation of the concept of "cybernetic anthropology" as a science that considers a person as a computerized control system that functions on the basis of certain programs (congenital and acquired) is proposed. Four elements of the "Human" control system have been identified: 1) Organic machine (control object); 2) Governing Body (subject of governing); 3) Device of "direct communication" (Executive device); 4) "Feedback" device (Communication device). It has been established that the Governing Body consists of three elements: 1) Perfect computer; 2) Sensor; 3) Personal computer. The author's interpretations of the concepts of "feeling" and "emotion" from the standpoint of cybernetic anthropology are proposed. Four basic programs of psyprogrammistics, as well as three basic programs of the theory of choosing goods on the market (the theory of making a purchase decision) are identified.

A robot is a mechanical device that can perform physical tasks, either autonomously or with human control. Robots began to be used for monitoring in areas that have narrow spaces and/or dangerous areas. So that this robot must be able to carry out monitoring with a remote control system. Therefore, in this study, a robotank is designed that can perform space exploration with remote control. Robotank is designed to use a track and wheel that can pass through various terrains and it has dimensions of 11.8 x 10.8 x 9.1 cm. Robotank is equipped with a camera to monitor in real-time. Robotank can move from one point to another by controlling using a remote control system with a maximum distance of 20 meters in line of sight terrain and 16 meters in non-line of site fields, with an average speed of 0.84 m/s. Robotank can work for 1 hour 52 minutes. With this robotank, it is hoped that it can be used for exploration of areas or rooms that have small spaces and dangerous.

LaB6 emitters are becoming increasingly popular as direct replacements for tungsten filaments in the electron guns of modern electron-beam instruments. These emitters offer order of magnitude increases in beam brightness, and, with appropriate care in operation, a corresponding increase in source lifetime. They are, however, an order of magnitude more expensive, and may be easily damaged (by improper vacuum conditions and thermal shock) during saturation/desaturation operations. These operations typically require several minutes of an operator's attention, which becomes tedious and subject to error, particularly since the emitter must be cooled during sample exchanges to minimize damage from random vacuum excursions. We have designed a control system for LaBg emitters which relieves the operator of the necessity for manually controlling the emitter power, minimizes the danger of accidental improper operation, and makes the use of these emitters routine on multi-user instruments.Figure 1 is a block schematic of the main components of the control system, and Figure 2 shows the control box.
