A small intelligence robot (SSR) is a special military intelligence means. It is used to obtain information about the enemy - the collection of intelligence, the search for targets and target indication, observation of the situation, etc. The use of a small intelligence robot is assumed in various natural and climatic conditions: in temperate terrain, on soils with low bearing capacity, at low temperatures, in the desert, on sandy and marshy soils, on rocky soils, in elevated temperature and dustiness of air, and also in conditions highlands In the article an overview of modern developments of remotely controlled robotic military complexes, principles of their construction and perspective directions of development in the armed forces are reviewed. The issues of robotization of existing weapons and military equipment are considered. Every sample of a SSR used in combat action must possess all combat characteristics at once in an optimal ratio between them, ensuring its maximum effectiveness. Ignoring any of the properties or enhancing one property at the expense of others will not enable the full realization of the small surveillance robot. It is reasonable to select the relevant properties at the design stage, using the possibilities of mathematical modeling. The set of tactical and technical characteristics of the SSR allowed forming this. Its characteristics determine the scope and possibilities of application. The mathematical model of the SSR motion is written in the Matlab Simulink environment. Recorded mathematical model of SSR motion, formed single test cycle and input data allowed to conduct computer simulation of motion in possible conditions of operation of small surveillance robot.The single trial cycle presented contains a set of individual sites and reproduces the testing test cycle of a real polygon. On the basis of the developed tactical and technical characteristics of the SSR, the experimental sample was made. An example of the use of SSR for the intelligence of the settlement and at keeping the node of barriers has been provided. The efficiency of performing intelligence units’ tasks and reducing the risk of human losses are shown.

In view of the existing problems of traditional interventional catheters, particularly poor activity, operation difficulty and mass blind area, a novel interventional catheter with a cable-driven active head-end is proposed, and a prototype was built to verify the performance. This paper deals with the kinematics and dynamics of the cable-driven prototype, a dynamic model based on Kanes method combined with screw theory was presented in this paper. According the mathematical model and the prototypes structure, the analysis of kinematics and dynamics of active head-end-end is done in the environment of Mathematica. The needed driving forces of every joint when the system moving along planned trajectory are calculated. The results can provide a basis for the structure design and motion control of the interventional active catheter.

This paper presents a mathematical method to analyze the influence of each machine tool part deformation on the machining accuracy. Taking a 3-axis machine tool as an example, this paper divides the machine tool into the cutting tool sub-system and workpiece sub-system. Taking the deformation of lower surface of the machine bed as the research target, the mathematical model of the deformation on the displacement of the cutting point was established. In order to distribute the stiffness of each part, the contribution degree of each part on the machining accuracy was analyzed. Using this mathematical model, the stiffness of each part can be distributed at the design stage of the machine tool, and the machining accuracy of the machine tool can be improved economically.

To find possible conveyor failures at the design stage means to determine a transverse belt displacement and compare the obtained data with the permissible ones. The dynamic problem of the belt movement on the conveyor has been defined. Resistance and external forces, limits of the belt displacement have been determined. The transverse belt displacement can be described by partial differential equations. To solve the problem, the Fourier transform has been used. Change patterns in the transverse belt conveyor displacement dependent on conveyor’s parameters, type of load, and skewing of the idlers along the conveyor have been obtained. The results agree with experimental data. The method of adaptive control of the transverse belt displacement has been described. The essence of this method is to adapt the model of the moving belt in the conveying trough to changed conditions and to reveal the uncertainty of the control with the known parameters of the mathematical model.

This article is devoted to the further development of feedback loop models. They are used in the management of a single-industry firm. The development of the studying consists in the mathematical modeling of transients and assessing their impact on economic indicators. To solve this problem, the following was done in the article. A structural model of the functioning of a single-industry firm (SIF) is presented. It is built in accordance with the theory of automatic control (TAC) and includes elements: a management unit, a production unit, a sales unit, information nodes, as well as a feedback loop (FL). Equations and relationships describing the logic of the functioning of the company as a production system are presented. They allowed us to derive dynamic relationships and differential equations that reflect feedback loops on revenue and production costs. The system of expressions in operator form is presented, which describes the contour of the FL SIF. It has the form of a system of differential equations. It forms the basis of the mathematical model of SIF in the control system. This model made it possible to obtain a graphical interpretation of transients with closed and open FL based on the use of the Mathcad editor. Transients are fluctuations in sales volumes and production costs in the presence of disturbing influences. This is the scientific result and determines the novelty of the article.

Hull form design from parent ships transforms the ship's parameters based on the variation of theoretical sectional area curve of the Lackenby method. The correction and modification of the theoretical sectional area curve is essentially the change of ship displacement, hull form coefficients, and the longitudinal center of buoyancy from the parent ships. In the preliminary design stage, the hull form design approach from parent ships minimizes the risks compared to the new design while still retaining hydrostatic and hydrodynamics' advantages. However, the Lackenby method of ship hull form variation uses a linear or quadratic function to shift the sectional area curves, regardless of the ship's hull form faring, especially the curvature's discontinuity the bow, stern, and midship. Therefore, the computer graphic algorithm based on the B-spline function is studied and applied; simultaneously, the mathematical model for the designed waterline is built in the form of a continuous curve instead of the B-spline segments. In this study, the mathematical model for the coastal container ship's design water line is constructed, ensuring continuity and fairing throughout the continuous B-spline curve. The geometry continuity evaluation results are expressed through the parameter curve's curvature and resistance component calculations' performance by computational analysis.
