The article presents an analysis of the tree dozer technologies. It is established that a separate method of grubbing out is most widespread due to the possibility of aggregation of various mounted and trailed tree dozer with wheeled and tracked tractors. Abroad, the most widespread method is simultaneous removal of the aboveground and underground parts of trees in the course of one technological operation. The main technical means of implementing direct stumping technology are self-propelled high-performance tree dozers of various capacities, and the process of tree stumping is carried out mainly with a vertically applied force. The purpose of the study was to develop a mathematical model of the process of tree stumping at a vertically applied effort based on the particle dynamics. The developed mathematical model enables to simulate soil and tree root system located in it, as well as the process of removing the tree root system, determine the vertical force applied to the tree trunk, at which feeding roots break and the main roots leave the soil. In the course of a numerical experiment, it has been found that when stumping garden trees with a diameter of 300 mm, the maximum vertical force reaches 74 kN. Due to the high physical adequacy and spatial resolution, the model enables to study the influence of the uprooting mechanism and the root system on the efficiency of stumping process.

Introduction. The calculation of effective indicators of the vortex ejector used in the diesel air supply system is a pressing task as it allows significantly reducing time for determination of rational design parameters at the design stage. One of the modifications of the particle dynamics method is a promising direction, allowing with high physical adequacy, “from the first principles,” to model aerodynamic processes in vortex devices. Therefore, the purpose of the paper is to develop a mathematical model of a vortex ejector.Materials and methods. The paper discussed a method of the mathematical simulation of ejection and ejection flows in a vortex ejector. The proposed modification of the particle dynamics method allowed describing aerodynamic processes with the help of simple laws of classical dynamics, and modeling them with the help of software of the Delphi 7 System. The author presented differential equations, which were solved by the Runge-Kutt method of the second order. As a result of the solution, the authors determined paths of air elements movement in the vortex ejector, which allowed estimating effective parameters of vortex devices.Results. To study the model, the author developed a program with the possibility to set geometric parameters of the vortex ejector in the interface window and to display the current values of the process parameters.Discussion and conclusions. Proposed mathematical model and computer program make it possible to quantify efficiency of vortex devices at their design stage. The advantage of the proposed mathematical model lies in more accurate calculation of vortex flow parameters from the vortex ejector design and physical properties of ejecting and ejecting flows.Financial transparency: the author has no financial interest in the presented materials or methods. There is no conflict of interest.

Abstract When measuring bearing forces of the tire-wheel assembly during drum tests, it was found that beyond certain speeds, the horizontal force variations or so-called fore-aft forces were larger than the force variations in the vertical direction. The explanation of this phenomenon is still somewhat an open question. One of the hypothetical models argues in favor of torsional oscillations caused by a changing rolling radius. But it appears that there is a simpler answer. In this paper, a mathematical model of a tire consisting of a rigid tread ring connected to a freely rotating wheel or hub through an elastic foundation which has radial and torsional stiffness was developed. This model shows that an unbalanced mass on the tread ring will cause an oscillatory rolling motion of the tread ring on the drum which is superimposed on the nominal rolling. This will indeed result in larger fore-aft than vertical force variations beyond certain speeds, which are a function of run-out. The rolling motion is in a certain sense a torsional oscillation, but postulation of a changing rolling radius is not necessary for its creation. The model also shows the limitation on balancing the tire-wheel assembly at the wheel rim if the unbalance occurs at the tread band.

Controlling the tooth errors induced by the variation of diameter of grinding wheel is the key problem in the process of ZC1 worm grinding. In this paper, the influence of tooth errors by d1, m and z1 as the grinding wheel diameter changes are analyzed based on the mathematical model of the grinding process. A new mathematical model and truing principle for the grinding wheel of ZC1 worm is presented. The shape grinding wheel truing of ZC1 worm is carried out according to the model. The validity and feasibility of the mathematical model is proved by case studies. The mathematical model presented in this paper provides a new method for reducing the tooth errors of ZC1 worm and it can meet the high-performance and high-precision requirements of ZC1 worm grinding.

The catalysts La0.8K0.2FeO3(LKFO), La0.8K0.2Fe0.7Mn0.3O3(LKFMO) and La0.8K0.2Fe0.67Mn0.3Pt0.03O3(LKFMPO) were prepared by the citrate-gel process and the catalyst-coated honeycomb ceramic devices were prepared by the citrate-gel assisted dip-coating method. All the catalysts have a high performance on the simultaneous removal of NOxand soot at a temperature range of 200 to 400°C under the practical diesel exhaust emission. The obvious catalytic improvement is largely due to the effects of ions substitution, pore structure and microstructural characteristics of the catalysts. The catalytic performance order is LKFMPO > LKFMO > LKFO. Among them the LKFMPO catalyst shows the best catalytic properties, especially in the removal of NOx, with a maximum conversion rate of NOx(21.2%).

This paper focuses on a simultaneous removal of trichlorfon and glucose that was added as carbon source for degradation requirement of trichlorfon. A hybrid bioreactor, having both suspended and magnetically immobilized biomass, was used for investigating this removal of both substances. To evaluate the respective roles of these two types of biomass, a mathematical model was developed and also verified well with experimental results. It has been found that the suspended biomass plays a key role in removing both substances in the system. This is due to complete coexistence of both trichlorfon-degrading and glucose-removing bacteria completely in each type of the biomass. Such a system would be applicable to the treatment of complex industrial wastewaters that contain easily biodegradable organics as well as refractory pollutants.

Abstract The paper deals with the improvement of central traversing system on rotor spinning machines, where rectilinear motion with variable stroke is used. A new system of traversing rod with implemented set of magnetic-mechanical energy accumulators is described. Mathematical model of this system is analysed in the MSC. Software Adams/View and verified by an experimental measurement on a real-length testing rig. Analysis results prove the enhancement of devised traversing system, where the overall dynamic force is reduced considerably. At the same time, the precision of the traversing movement over the machine length is increased. This enables to increase machine operating speed while satisfying both the maximal tensile strength of the traversing rod and also output bobbin size standards. The usage of the developed mathematical model for determination of the optimal number and distribution of accumulators over the traversing rod of optional parameters is proved. The potential of the devised system for high-performance rotor spinning machines with longer traversing rod is also discussed.
