Background: The constancy of the ambient temperature is the main condition to correctly determine the time of death by thermometric method. However, in practice, this requirement is met only in cases of death in closed rooms. In this study, an exponential mathematical model was proposed for corpse cooling under any changes in ambient temperature. Aim: This study aimed to develop a mathematical model to determine the time of death based on the NewtonRichman cooling law in changing ambient temperature conditions. Materials and methods: Mathematical modeling of corpse cooling under changing ambient temperature is performed, focusing on problem solving of thermometric determination of the time of death. The axillary hollow was used as the diagnostic zone of the corpse, and the temperature of which at the time of death is taken is 36.6С. Results: A method of reverse reproduction of the cadaver temperature in conditions of changing ambient temperature has been developed. Results allow a relatively simple analytical determination of the time of death in the early postmortem period. Conclusions: The proposed method is advisable to be used in forensic medical practice to determine the time of death in early postmortem period. The developed mathematical model is implemented in the format of the application program Warm Bodies NRN. Use of tympanic and intraocular thermometry was recommended within the proposed model.

Abstract. A mandatory element of the development and implementation of diagnostic technologies for determining the time of death by the thermal method is the assessment of their possible errors. For equations of cadaver cooling that have a deterministic character, the estimation of errors is possible on the basis of a mathematical model of indirect measurement. In this article, a mathematical model is proposed for estimating the maximum absolute errors in determining the prescription of death on the basis of the Newtons - Richmans cooling law under conditions of constant and changing ambient temperature. Aim. To develop, on the basis of a mathematical model of indirect measurement, a method for estimating errors in determining the prescription of death on the basis of the Newtons - Richmans cooling law. Material and methods. Mathematical modeling of errors in determining the time of death in conditions of constant and changing ambient temperature is carried out on the basis of the Newtons - Richmans law. The computer program code is written in the C# programming language using the Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 application. Results. On the basis of the indirect measurement model, a method for estimating the maximum absolute errors in determining the time of death during cooling according to the Newtons - Richmans law under conditions of constant and changing ambient temperature is developed. The results obtained allow us to carry out an analytical determination of the errors in time the prescription of death in the early postmortem period. Conclusions. A mathematical model is developed for estimating the maximum absolute errors in determining the time of death on the basis of the Newtons - Richmans cooling law under conditions of constant and changing ambient temperature. The developed mathematical model is implemented in the format of the application program Warm Bodies NRN.

Current cobalt processing practices are described. This article discusses the advantages of the group argument accounting method for mathematical modeling of the leaching process of cobalt solutions. Identification of the mathematical model of the cascade of reactors of cobalt-producing is presented. Group method of data handling is allowing: to eliminate the need to calculate quantities of chemical kinetics; to get the opportunity to take into account the results of mixed experiments; to exclude the influence of random interference on the simulation results. The proposed model confirms the capabilities of the group method of data handling for describing multistage processes.

Metals deposition in peat can aid to evaluate impact of atmospheric or wastewaters pollution and thus can be a good indicator of recent and historical changes in the pollution loading. For peat using in agriculture, industrial, heat production etc. knowledge of peat metals content is important. Experimental determination of metals in peat is very long and expensive work. Using experimental data the mathematical model for calculation of concentrations of metals in different points for different layers is developed. The values of the metals (Ca, Mg, Fe, Sr, Cu, Zn, Mn, Pb, Cr, Ni, Se, Co, Cd, V, Mo) concentrations in different layers in peat taken from Knavu peat bog from four sites are determined using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer. Mathematical model for calculation of concentrations of metal has been described in the paper. As an example, mathematical models for calculation of Pb concentrations have been analyzed.

The processes occurring during the geodetic excavation of underground excavations are characterized by the interaction of the elements of the geokhod with each other and with the geo-environment. The interaction process can be investigated in mathematical modeling, solving the problems of justifying the parameters of the drives and interacting forces, ensuring sufficient strength of the machine elements and the bearing capacity of the contour array. The proposed block-modular principles of constructing a mathematical model allow solving particular problems of the system and its individual elements. From the solution of particular problems, it is now necessary to proceed to the solution of the generalized model, using equivalent loads and reduced total moments (forces). The construction of a generalized model requires a number of assumptions, but its solution will reveal the interaction between the elements of the geokhod and the geo-environment, which is very relevant.As an example, the solution of a particular problem is given-the determination of the value of the forces arising from the interaction of the blade of an external engine with the medium.A list of assumptions is formulated that allow us to describe a general mathematical model of the interaction between the geo-environment and the geokhod, as well as the processes occurring during geodetic excavation of mine workings.

Improvement in attack accuracy of the spin projectiles is a very significant objective, which increases the overall combat efficiency of projectiles. The accurate determination of the projectile roll attitude is the recent objective of the efficient guidance and control. The roll measurement system for the spin projectile is commonly based on the magnetoresistive sensor. It is well known that the magnetoresistive sensor produces a sinusoidally oscillating signal whose frequency slowly decays with time, besides the possibility of blind spot. On the other hand, absolute sensors such as GPS have fixed errors even though the update rates are generally low. To earn the benefit while eliminating weaknesses from both types of sensors, a mathematical model using filtering technique can be designed to integrate the magnetoresistive sensor and GPS measurements. In this paper, a mathematical model is developed to integrate the magnetoresistive sensor and GPS measurements in order to get an accurate prediction of projectile roll attitude in a real flight time. The proposed model is verified using numerical simulations, which illustrated that the accuracy of the roll attitude measurement is improved.

The article is devoted to the study of the influence of dynamic loading on the characteristics of polymer elements of shock absorbers of the rolling stock of railways and to the description of the creation of a mathematical model of their work. The results of mathematical modeling are further used to solve problems of the longitudinal dynamics of rolling stock. In the study, the initial loading rate varied, the ambient temperature and the influence of the wear factor remained unchanged. For the operating speeds of a freight car, a mathematical model of the PMKP-110 draft gear was determined.

Developed a mathematical model for determining residual stresses with increasing plasma coatings, taking into account the stresses arising upon cooling of the material from the final temperature to ambient temperature; tension that arises when removing the fastening devices and tension that existed in the substrate before spraying. The developed mathematical models are adapted for the most common cases of fixing the base used in the practice of coating. Experimental studies of residual stresses were carried out, which showed good convergence with the values of residual stresses obtained theoretically.
