The work purpose is to increase effectiveness and quality of engineering process control of tool working in a plasma-generator of a glow discharge based on a neuronet approach. Investigation methods: use of computer technologies based on an artificial neuronet system for the creation of control systems as an investigation method consisting in computer imitation of the process of plasma-generator operation at separate stages of processing. It will allow developing an optimum system for quality control and management of engineering processes performed for tool working in the plasma-generator of a glow discharge. The essence of the modeling method when using an artificial neuronet approach consists in the development of such algorithms and programs which imitate the behavior of the plasma-generator, its properties and characteristics in the composition essential for investigations, volume and field of technical parameter changes. Investigation results: the operation sequence of the engineering process for product working in the plasma-generator of a glow discharge ensures the formation of the specified structure and micro-hardness on the surface of products worked. A considerable impact upon working quality is made by the structure of technological gas environment and a rate of its pumping at constant pressure in a vacuum chamber for the formation of the essential flux of bombarding ions with the specified value of kinetic energy before a hit on a surface. During the development of working stage sequence there is taken into account a state and magnitude of the defected layer formed at the stages of previous working and ageing. The effectiveness of force impact is defined with the stability of current strength in the discharge and electrode voltage in the plasma-generator of a glow discharge. The fluctuations of current strength and voltage at discharge burning depends upon the stability of structure, pressure and a pumping rate of technological gas environment through a working volume of the plasma-generator.

The conditions for the hardening of tools in accordance with the author’s technological routes in the optimal time interval are considered using the functional dependence of the serviceability of plasma generators. This dependence takes into account the workability of the technical devices involved in processing the laying batch of tools in the speci ed time interval. The probability of performing the production process in the estimated time is represented by the product of the trouble-free operation of each glow discharge plasma generator involved in the nishing processing of tools that require a different type of plasma exposure in a certain sequence and duration.

ABSTRACTSilicon thin films were prepared by “Chemical Annealing” where the deposition of thin layer (<3 nm thick) by RF glow discharge of SiH4 and the treatment with hydrogen atoms (H) or triplet state of argon (3Ar) were repeated alternatating. Consequently, wide gap a-Si:H with the gap of 2.1 eV was made by H-treatmentat rather low substrate temperature (Ts<150 °C), while a-Si:H with the gap narrower than 1.6 eV was obtained by the treatment with 3Ar at high Ts (>300 °C), resulting from the release of excessive hydrogen. Both the wider or the narrower gap films exhibited low defect density lower than 1016 cm−3 and obvious improvements in the stability for light soaking.

The aim of the work consists in the reveal of the most stable method of identification, in the reveal of factors influencing the parameter definition result of the melt model during leucosapphire singlecrystal growth by Kyropoulos’ method. Investigation methods are based on an engineering process computer modeling under the assumption that the object of control is an aperiodic link of the second order. The comparison of identification results is carried out through different methods built-in Matlab system, their adequacy is defined by actual processes. As a result of investigations there is obtained a description of an aperiodic link of the second order in the form of states space, an interpretation of results obtained in the form of a time constant of object control is given. It is shown that the engineering process description obtained in the form of states space is adequate, the availability of non-zero initial conditions (non-zero speed of technological parameter changes) has no influence upon an identification process. There are ob-tained dynamic characteristics for a set of experimental data by Process Models and Space State methods. The application of Space State method is recommended.

This paper analyzes the dynamics of the labor market in Latin America during the COVID-19 pandemic. After a decade of a virtuous circle of growth with the creation of formal jobs, the pandemic has had an considerable impact on the region’s labor market, generating an unparalleled increase in the proportion of the inactive population, considerable reductions in informality, and, in contrast, smaller fluctuations in formal jobs. In this context, the formal sector, given its lower flexibility, became a "social safety net" that preserved the stability of employment and wages. Based on the findings presented in this paper, it is projected that, starting in 2021, informality will grow to levels higher than those of the pre-COVID-19 era–with 7.56 million additional informal jobs–as a result of the population returning to the labor market to compensate for the declines in incomes. According to the simulations presented, postponing or forgiving income tax payments and social security contributions conditional on the generation of formal jobs could reduce the growth of informality by 50 to 75 percent. Achieving educational improvements has the potential to reduce it by 50 percent.

The article proposes a method for obtaining a digital twin of the process of 3D printing by electric arc surfacing using an ensemble of machine learning methods. On the basis of the structural-parametric approach, a set of diagnostic parameters for the signals of current strength, voltage and acoustic emission was determined. Using exploratory analysis, the significance of each diagnostic parameter was assessed. A complex of statistical models has been developed to assess the stability of 3D printing processes using decision trees. Their optimal parameters and efficiency have been determined.

AbstractHydrogenated microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H) solar cells are made using modified veryhigh-frequency (MVHF) glow discharge at deposition rates ∼3-5 Å/s. We find that the solar cells made under certain conditions show degradation in air without intentional light soaking. The short-circuit current drops significantly within a few days after deposition, and then stabilizes. We believe that post-deposition oxygen diffusion along the grain boundaries or cracks is the origin of the ambient degradation. By optimizing the deposition conditions, we have found a plasma regime in which the μc-Si:H solar cells do not show such ambient degradation. The best a-Si:H/μc-Si:H double-junction solar cell has an initial active-area efficiency of 10.9% and is stable against the ambient degradation. The stability data of the solar cells after light soaking are also presented.
