The concept of evaluating the effectiveness of technologies for the development of low-pressure gas

As the title implies, the article consider issues of low-pressure gas development of the Aptian-Cenomanian gas-bearing complex, which is located in Western Siberia. An algorithm for substantiating the well completion technology has been proposed as a result of the conducted scientific research. The algorithm takes into account the likelihood of occurrence and development of complications that affect the achievement of the expected flow rate. The likelihood of these complications is significantly low compared to other scenarios; however, the consequences of the accidents under consideration have the greatest negative impact on well completion in terms of achieving the potential productivity of the well. The author proposes to assess the effectiveness of the planned work on two indicators, which will allow us to determine the degree of risk of incompleteness of the event in the planned technological operation and to assess the quality of implementation of the planned technology.

Automation and ‘Thailand +1” Strategy of Japanese Companies in Thailand by Thai Engineers

<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>Japanese companies have the second largest number of overseas manufacturing sites in Thailand after in China. To cope with labor cost increase, on one hand, they automate their production processes using robots. On the other hand, they establish satellite manufacturing sites in neighboring lower labor cost countries. This movement is called “Thailand+1” Strategy. The paper discusses these two movements comparing with the experiences of Japanese companies in Japan in the late 1980s coping with rapid Japanese Yen appreciation. The paper discusses that the automation in Thailand now is more systematic and needs system integrators and that local engineers need to be trained as system integrators since the technological operation in Thailand is already heavily localized. In the case of Japan in the late 1980s, shop-floor workers were needed to be mechatronics operators since individual machines became IT (Information Technology) -based. For the “Thailand +1” Strategy, only a part of production process, which is heavily labor-intensive, is moved out as a satellite factory, while in the case of Japan in the 1980s a whole assembling process was moved out and many parts suppliers followed. Another difference is that local engineers (Thai engineers) play an important role in technology transfer in the case of the “Thailand +1” Strategy, while Japanese engineers transferred technology to overseas factories in the case of Japanese companies in the late 1980s. Japanese companies have become globally operated from Japan-centered.</p><p> </p>Keywords: Automation, Thailand+1 Strategy, Japanese Companies, Thai Engineers

PROCESSING WASTE FROM LOGGING AND WOOD PROCESSING ENTERPRISES INTO A NON-CONVENTIONAL RECLAMATION SUBSTRATE USING ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY TECHNOLOGY

In Russia, in the field of rapidly and dynamically developing woodworking industry, the issue of recycling waste from logging and woodworking enterprises is becoming relevant. The article reflects information about a new devel-oped technology for processing waste from logging and woodworking enterprises. The developers have proposed an environmentally friendly technology for processing organic waste into a product that has an effective reclamation effect and increases the natural potential of soils. The technology proposed by the authors is based on the unique technical capabilities of the developed installation - a highly efficient mill that grinds down to nano-sized fineness, and a highly efficient mixer that makes it possible to obtain homogeneous mixtures of various materials and different fineness. The unconventional substrate obtained in this way, due to the scientifically grounded composition and ratios of the composite components of organic waste, has effective reclamation properties that increase the soil potential, as well as restoring the fertility of the humus horizon. The use of an unconventional ameliorative substrate in nurseries increased the survival rate and growth rates of Scots pine seedlings both in the open field and in the greenhouse. Thus, the installation proposed by the authors in one technological operation enables the processing of waste from logging and woodworking enterprises and ultimately obtain a product that helps to increase soil potential of degraded lands

ANALYSIS OF METHODS FOR CONTROLLING THE ACCURACY OF PAINT MATCHING

К числу основных контролируемых показателей, характеризующих качество многокрасочного изображения на печатном изделии, относится совмещение красок. Совмещение красок на оттиске представляет собой технологическую операцию, состоящую в нанесении на запечатываемую подложку отдельных печатных красок для формирования совмещенного многокрасочного изображения на печатном изделии в соответствии с требованиями его целостностности и информативности. Контроль и оценку совмещения красок на оттиске осуществляют различными методами и проводят по приводочным крестам, тест-объектам или по полученному изображению. Актуальность работы обоснована тем, что анализ запатентованных методов контроля совмещения красок при печатании и рекомендуемых стандартизированных методов показал, что для них свойственна высокая трудоемкость, наличие специальных устройств для проведения контроля, нестабильность оценки результата, а также они не обеспечивают нужную точность и объективность определения параметров совмещения красок. Это приводит к ухудшению качества напечатанных оттисков и появлению брака. В работе разработан алгоритм оценки смещения контрольных меток с применением оптических измерительных приборов и идентификацией полученного результата совмещения красок с вариантами компьютерного моделирования, с последующей статистической обработкой данных. Предложенный подход обеспечивает достоверность контроля совмещения красок и точность определения параметров его стабилизации (0,05-0,01 мм), а также позволяет объективно управлять процессом совмещения красок для обеспечения качества печатных изделий. One of the main controlled indicators that characterize the quality of a multicolored image on a printed product is the combination of colors. The combination of colors on the impression is a technological operation that consists in applying separate printing inks to the printed substrate to form a combined multicolored image on the printed product in accordance with the requirements of its integrity and informativeness. Control and evaluation of the combination of colors on the impression is carried out by various methods and is carried out on the drive crosses, test objects or on the resulting image. The relevance of the work is justified by the fact that the analysis of the patented methods of controlling the combination of paints in printing and the recommended standardized methods showed that they are characterized by high labor intensity, the presence of special devices for monitoring, instability of the result evaluation, and they do not provide the necessary accuracy and objectivity in determining the parameters of the combination of paints. This leads to a deterioration in the quality of the printed prints and the appearance of defects. The paper develops an algorithm for estimating the displacement of control marks using optical measuring devices and identifying the resulting result of combining colors with computer modeling options, followed by statistical data processing. The proposed approach provides reliable control of the color combination and the accuracy of determining the parameters of its stabilization (0.05-0.01 mm), and also allows you to objectively control the process of combining colors to ensure the quality of printed products.
