INFLUENCE OF ROTARY POST-EFFECT ON DISCHARGE IN THE CRUSTAL LAYER

This work represents experiments which have been performed in an attempt to establish a correla-tion between the constantly changing rotational regime of the planet and the discharge in the crustal layer. From the displacement of the TAI, UTC, and UT1 time scales taken from the site of the Interna-tional Earth Rotation Service (IERS), the average annual and monthly angular rotation rates were cal-culated for the period from 1962 to 2018, and a catalog of earthquakes with 1962 to 2018. The com-piled algorithm and the written program found partial derivatives of the total deforming potential and the distribution of annual number of earthquakes over the Earth's surface per one square kilometer. The article presents the results of analytical analysis and calculations for further investigation of the rotational regime of the Earth and other planets.

TECHNIQUE OF AUTOMATIC MOBILE LASER SCANNING DATA ADJUSTMENT

Adjustment is a main step in the preliminary processing of mobile laser scanning (MLS) data. As a result of this step, a point cloud is generated in a certain coordinate system. The modern software, provided with the corresponding surveying system, is capable of performing in automatic mode most stages of MLS data adjustment obtained for territories with different quantity of buildings. With a suf-ficient number of vertically arranged planar objects, such as building walls, the algorithms embedded in the software provide a high accuracy of relative adjustment, which consists in calculating and ap-plying corrections for trajectories obtained with re-scanning the same area. Absolute adjustment can also be carried out automatically, subject to the rules for placing control points in order to automatically detect them. This kind of adjustment involves transforming a point cloud with using control point coordinates measured with more accurate surveying methods. The accuracy of automatic relative adjustment can be significantly reduced with the almost complete absence of vertical flat objects. In this case, it is necessary to develop additional adjustment techniques capable of using not only flat objects of a large area, but also vertical objects, such as road signs and poles. Comprehensive technique of MLS data adjustment, which can use information on the position of road signs and poles for territories with an insufficient number of vertical flat objects is proposed. The accuracy estimation of both the relative and absolute MLS data adjustment according to the proposed technique was carried out. The choice of the required control point density for territories with different quantity of buildings is explained.

MATHEMATICAL MODELING OF DEFORMATION PROCESSES OF THE MAIN TECHNOLOGICAL EQUIPMENT OF THE CHAMBER RECEIVING AND STARTING THE CLEANING AND DIAGNOSTIC MEANS (PPC SOD) OF THE MAIN PIPELINE

The article discusses the possibility of using mathematical modeling to assess the state of the main technological equipment of the chamber for receiving and launching cleaning and diagnostic tools (PPC) to predict possible changes in the position of equipment elements from the corresponding design values. Based on the completed planned cycles of geodetic observations, based on the measurement results, calculations were made to build predictive mathematical models for the subsequent study of the deformation processes of the main technological equipment of the chamber for receiving and launching cleaning and diagnostic tools. The mechanisms of sequential processing of the measurement results for the sample belonging to the law of normal distribution by an approximate method and fur-ther data preparation by forming statistically homogeneous groups of process implementations in order to build predictive mathematical models are shown. According to the prediction results, deformation marks were identified, for which the process of deformation proceeds with a higher rate of upsetting in comparison with other marks. Recommendations for further geodetic observations are proposed.

STUDY OF THE RELIEF AND COASTLINE DYNAMICS OF LARGE COASTAL ACCUMULATIVE FORMS ACCORDING TO REMOTE SENSING DATA

The study of the relief of large coastal accumulative forms, based on modern technologies, is rele-vant for solving many applied problems. Coastal and underwater bars, shoals, banks are characteristic elements of large coastal accumulative forms’ geosystems. Previously existing methods of relief re-searches, especially underwater, were labor-intensive and expensive. Accordingly, the development and implementation of new methods of geographical research are necessary. The Dolgaya Spit, includ-ing its underwater shoal and the Elenin Bank, is one of the largest accumulative forms of the Sea of Azov. The purpose of our work was to obtain new information on the relief structure and the shoreline dynamics of the Dolgaya Spit based on the use of new research methods. Digital models of surface and underwater relief were built on the basis of processing Sentinel-2 satellite images and data from unmanned aerial photography. The subsequent analysis allowed identify regularities that reflect the current and previous hydro-lithodynamic conditions that determined the transformation of the Dolgaya Spit during its evolution. The fulfilled studies confirmed the possibility of successful use of modern remote methods for studying the relief of coastal accumulative forms.

TECHNIQUE OF AUTOMATIC MOBILE LASER SCANNING DATA FILTERING

The result of laser scanning is an array of laser points. The generation of a single point cloud in a given coordinate system is carried out during the registration process at the stage of preliminary field data processing. At this stage it is also often necessary to filter the data. Laser points with an erroneous position are eliminated during the data filleting. The number of erroneous laser points is determined by the of the laser scanner characteristics, surveyed area peculiarities and weather conditions. The devel-opment of methods and algorithms for filtering laser scanning data is carried out based on the analysis of the laser point spatial position and a certain set of additional characteristics, such as intensity value, echo signal, color value. The technique of mobile laser scanning data filtering for the territory of the road passing among the forest and close to individual industrial facilities and building. The main goal of the proposed filtration technique is to obtain data for automatic generation of an accurate digital terrain model. The filtration technique was developed for data acquired under the least favorable con-ditions – in wet weather. Accuracy estimation of generating digital terrain model based on filtered data was carried out.

SIMULATION OF DISPLACEMENT OF LANDSLIDES ON THE MATERIALS OF GEODESIC OBSERVATIONS AND ENGINEERING-GEOLOGICAL SURVEYS

The article discusses the possibilities of applying modeling of the stress-strain state of slopes to predict landslide hazard, which is very important for the successful implementation of all subsequent stages of design, construction and operation of engineering structures. The article considers the exist-ing approaches and methods used in the process of solving the problem, and determines the study as the type of mathematical modeling of the stress-strain state of a landslide body by the finite element method. It is shown that the selection of specific mathematical expressions for all subsequent calcula-tions is carried out depending on the specific type of landslide. The mechanisms of deformation and destruction of the slope under the action of gravitational forces are shown using the data of geodetic observations and engineering-geological surveys. As a result of the studies performed, calculations were made on several models illustrating the behavior of the soil massif of a landslide-prone slope. Stress patterns were obtained for a simple slope with a steepness of 35°, which coincide with the pre-viously published data of the physical experiment for the real open pit slope.

METHOD OF TRANSMITTING THE COORDINATES OF THE TOTAL STATION TO THE POINTS OF THE INTERNAL CENTRAL NETWORK OF AN ENGINEERING CONSTRUCTION

When creating an external planning and high-altitude justification on construction sites, and then internal center networks for the purpose of transmitting coordinates in a number of cases, geodetic measurements are performed through an optical medium, which in some areas has a different refractive index. This is the case when performing such measurements in the winter season, when the trans-mission is made through the technological gate of the temporary end of an engineering structure, for example, a nuclear or thermal power plant. The disadvantage of this method is the influence of significant air turbulence at the border of a sharp temperature drop in winter. To eliminate this influence, it is proposed to transmit coordinates inside the engineering structure through window openings. In this case, the total station can be located inside the engineering structure or outside it. When implementing the proposed method, the influence of a sharp temperature drop on the measurement results is almost completely excluded. Studies have established that when the coordinates are transmitted through the glass to the points of internal justification, a parallel transfer of the sighting beam occurs. To exclude it, the sighting must be performed at the horizontal position of the total station telescope. The article presents the results of studies of the accuracy of measuring distances and angles when the sighting (laser) beam of the total station passes through two optical media (air-glass-air) at different air temperature differences.
