Innovative production technologies, such as additive synthesis, is inextricably linked with the development of methods for assessing the quality of manufactured products. At the initial stage of introducing of new production methods into various industries, the most studied and widely used control methods are usually used. In most cases these are standard destructive tests. As an alternative to standard tensile tests used to evaluate the elastic and strength properties of polymer products produced using SLA-technology, the dynamic indentation method is studed in this work. Using the samples of the high-temperature photopolymer resin High Temp RS-F2-HTAM-01, the possibility of optimizing 3D printing methods and post-processing modes based on dynamic indentation data is shown. It has been shown that non-pigmented photopolymers are most susceptible to embrittlement due to their ability to transmit UV radiation into the volume of the synthesized material. It was found that the embrittlement of a polymer material has a lesser effect on the result of measuring its dynamic hardness than on its tensile strength. It has been established that post-curing of polymer products at high temperatures (up to 160 °C) and UV radiation with a power of 39 W can increase their strength and elastic modulus by 170 % and 85 %, respectively, compared to the state before treatment. It has been proven that the sensitivity of the dynamic indentation method to changes in the physical and mechanical characteristics of products obtained using SLA-technology under various types and modes of their post-processing is comparable to the sensitivity of standard tensile tests.
添加剂合成等创新生产技术与制成品质量评估方法的发展密不可分。在将新生产方法引入各行各业的初期阶段，通常会使用研究最深入、使用最广泛的控制方法。在大多数情况下，这些都是标准的破坏性试验。作为评估使用 SLA 技术生产的聚合物产品的弹性和强度特性的标准拉伸试验的替代方法，本工作研究了动态压痕法。通过使用高温光聚合物树脂 High Temp RS-F2-HTAM-01 样品，显示了根据动态压痕数据优化 3D 打印方法和后处理模式的可能性。研究表明，非色素光聚合物最容易发生脆化，这是因为它们能够将紫外线辐射传输到合成材料的体积中。研究发现，与拉伸强度相比，聚合物材料的脆化对动态硬度测量结果的影响较小。研究证实，在高温（最高 160 ℃）和功率为 39 W 的紫外线辐射下对聚合物产品进行后固化，可使其强度和弹性模量分别比处理前提高 170 % 和 85 %。事实证明，动态压痕法对使用 SLA 技术生产的产品在各种类型和模式的后处理情况下物理和机械特性变化的灵敏度与标准拉伸试验的灵敏度相当。

The influence of temperature in the range from 20 to 100 °C on the specific surface energy and fracture toughness of standard silicon wafers of three orientations (100), (110) and (111) was studied. Silicon wafers were heated on a special thermal platform with an autonomous heating controller, which was installed under the samples. At each temperature, the samples were kept for 10 min. The specific surface energy γ after exposure to temperature was determined by atomic force microscopy (AFM). Fracture toughness during and after exposure to temperature was determined by indentation followed by visualization of the deformation region using AFM. It has been established that the specific surface energy γ of Si wafers with orientation (100) and (111) increases with increasing temperature from 20 to 100 °C, and for orientation (110) it increases at temperatures from 20 to 80 °C, and then decreases. The diagonal length d of indentation marks, performed both during the heating process and after heating, decreases by increasing the temperature from 20 to 100 °C. The crack length c decreases on silicon wafers during indentation during heating from 20 to 100 °C, and after exposure to temperature, the length increases. When the plates are exposed to temperature, the fracture toughness KIC increases with increasing temperature: for orientation (100) – up to 1.61 ± 0.08 MPa·m1/2, for (110) – up to 1.60 ± 0.08 MPa·m1/2 and for (111) – up to 1.66 ± 0.04 MPa·m1/2. A direct correlation was established between KIC, measured during exposure to temperature, and an inverse correlation between KIC measured after exposure to temperature and specific surface energy for the (100) and (111) orientations. An inverse correlation was obtained by KIC at the (110) orientation when exposed to temperatures of 20–40 and 80–100 °C, and after exposure, a direct correlation was obtained. At 60 °C there is no correlation. The results obtained can be used to improve the mechanical properties of silicon wafers used in solar cells and microelectromechanical systems (operating at temperatures up to 100 °C).

Results of use of the laser beam deflection technique for determination of thermo-optic coefficients (TOCs) of the Er3+-doped gadolinium-yttrium oxyorthosilicate crystal (Er3+:(GdY) SiO– Er:GYSO) are presented. A 0.1 at.% Er-doped gadolinium-yttrium oxyorthosilicate crystal was grown by the Czochralski method under nitrogen atmosphere. Raw materials such as Er2O3, Gd2O3, Y2O3, and SiO2 were weighed according to the formula (Er0.001Gd0.8995Y0.0995)2SiO5. Optical properties of the biaxial Er:GYSO crystal are described within the frame of the optical indicatrix with orthogonal principal axes Np , Nm , and Ng . To characterize the anisotropy of the TOCs a sample from the grown Er:GYSO crystal was prepared in a shape of a rectangular parallelepiped with dimensions of 7.0 (Np ) × 8.0 (Nm ) × 8.5 (Ng ) mm3. Each face of the sample is perpendicular to one of the optical indicatrix axes Np , Nm and Ng . For determination of the TOCs the laser beam deflection technique for a material with a linear temperature gradient is used. Measurements are performed at the wavelength of 632.8 nm. The thermal coefficient of the optical path (TCOP) for the Er:GYSO crystal measured at the wavelength of 632.8 nm at different light polarization E and propagation direction k were obtained. The TCOP values are positive for all directions of the light propagation k // Np , Nm , Ng . This means that the sign of the thermal lens which is directly related to the TCOP value will also be positive, and the positive thermal lens is then expected for Np Nm-, and Ng -cut Er:GYSO. Applying an analysis of the thermal lensing the dn /dT value for Yb:GYSO is estimated to be 6.5×10–6 K–1.
本文介绍了利用激光束偏转技术测定掺铒钆钇氧正硅酸盐晶体（Er3+:(GdY) SiO- Er:GYSO）热光学系数（TOC）的结果。在氮气环境下，采用 Czochralski 法生长出了 0.1 at.% Er 掺杂钆钇氧正硅酸盐晶体。按照 (Er0.001Gd0.8995Y0.0995)2SiO5 的公式称量了 Er2O3、Gd2O3、Y2O3 和 SiO2 等原材料。双轴 Er:GYSO 晶体的光学特性是在具有正交主轴 Np、Nm 和 Ng 的光学指示矩阵框架内描述的。为了描述 TOC 的各向异性，我们从生长的 Er:GYSO 晶体中制备了一个矩形平行四边形样品，尺寸为 7.0 (Np ) × 8.0 (Nm ) × 8.5 (Ng ) mm3。样品的每个面都垂直于 Np、Nm 和 Ng 中的一个光学指示轴。在测定总有机碳时，使用的是线性温度梯度材料的激光束偏转技术。测量波长为 632.8 纳米。在不同的光偏振 E 和传播方向 k 下，在 632.8 纳米波长处测量 Er:GYSO 晶体的光路热系数（TCOP）。所有光传播方向 k // Np , Nm , Ng 的 TCOP 值均为正值。这意味着与 TCOP 值直接相关的热透镜的符号也将是正的，因此预计 Np Nm 和 Ng 切割的 Er:GYSO 都会产生正的热透镜。根据热透镜分析，Yb:GYSO 的 dn /dT 值估计为 6.5×10-6 K-1。

Development of rifle electronic simulators (i.e. for hand weapons and not using ammunition) is an important task, since the production of any type of small arms according to regulatory documents also requires the production of a simulator to instill aiming and firing skills. A family of electronic shooting simulators "STrIzh" of four levels of implementation: initial, basic, professional and special is described. Structural diagrams of different configurations are given, functional purpose and capabilities of each level of simulators are shown. The initial level allows independent assemble the simulator from publicly available elements (laptop, webcam, weapon layouts, IR LEDs), which can contribute to widespread use both in schools and at home, but is low in accuracy and manufacturabili (requires daily calibration). The basic level also allows independent assemble the simulator, and less publicly available elements (laptop, projector, mockup weapons, laser emitters, FHD camera), which allows to be used both in schools and in DOSAAF structures, and has acceptable accuracy and manufacturability (a weekly calibration is enough, but assembling a mock-up weapon with laser emitters requires adjustments). It is recommended to limit the special level to virtual reality simulators, including a helmet with a smartphone and a mockup of a weapon with its smartphone which also contributes to its public availability and widespread use. The simulator software algorithm should fully support all implementation levels with different configurations and include a multimedia shooting training system. Mathematical models of external ballistics of thrown equipment for Kalashnikov assault rifle, Makarov pistol, hand-held anti-tank grenade launcher 7 products are described in detail, taking into account changes in atmospheric factors (temperature, air pressure, wind force) and dispersion of various types of ammunition. The above review of rifle simulators and their experience revealed the main trends of improvement – use of virtual reality and training not only direct shooting skills, but also training in the eligibility of the use of weapons, safe handling of them and even tactical interaction in the group.

Monitoring of air pollutions is one of actual trends in the development of industrial and domestic instrumentation. There are sets of tasks for improving gas analytical instruments because of increasing demand for control of a concentration of explosive and toxic gases on a level with maximum allowable concentration. The aim of the paper was to investigate the methods of formation and elemental composition of indium oxide films modified with tin oxide on the surface of gas sensor elements as one of the promising compounds for improving the detection efficiency of explosive and toxic gases in the environment. The processes of formation of gas-sensitive films deposited on the surface of nichrome alloy information electrodes were studied in this article. Substrates of anodic aluminum oxide with area of 10 × 10 mm2 and a thickness of 45 ± 0,5 μm were chosen for research. Two layers on the surface of the samples were formed. The first layer was formed from NiCr alloy (Ni – 80 %, Cr – 20 %) with a thickness of ≈ 0.3 μm by ion-plasma sputtering. The second layer was based on indium oxide with addition of tin oxide with thicknesses from ≈ 0.3 μm to ≈ 1.0 µm and coated with sol-gel technology. Five samples of gas-sensitive films were formed with different methods of deposition and heat treatment. Scanning electron microscopy was used for study of films’ morphology and elemental compositions of samples. The most perfect continuous semiconductor films were obtained by multilayer applying of a sol-gel paste. When semiconductor films were processed at annealing temperatures of 700 °C and higher in vacuum so there was observed cracking of semiconductor films up to a layer of NiCr alloy. The developed surface of gas-sensitive films allows to reach high sensitivity and affectivity of semiconductor sensors for control of air gas composition.

The topic of research stands on heavy liquid metal coolants is currently undergoing a rebirth. Experimental stands have been built, for example, LILLA SCK CEN (Center for Nuclear Research in Belgium, Mol). This is one of the most famous stands that uses heavy liquid metal heat carriers. But a sufficiently complete description of the equipment line-up and the application of specific solutions for monitoring and maintaining the operability of the stands at the heavy liquid metal coolants is not published in the open press. Most likely, this is due to the specifics of research where there is a sufficient amount of secrecy. The aim of the work was to conduct a comprehensive review of various equipment use in this field. This will make it possible to plan more efficient composition of new research stands at heavy liquid metal coolants and avoid unnecessary mistakes when operating them. Heavy liquid metal heat carriers of nuclear power plants such as lead, eutectic lead-bismuth alloy, lead-lithium, gallium alloys differ significantly in their physicochemical properties from traditional and well-studied, widely used water, sodium, as well as liquid salt heat carriers, potassium, gases (helium, etc.).

Increasing the efficiency of non-destructive control of lamellar materials with single and double-layer structure is an urgent scientific and technical task. The aim of the work was to investigate the peculiarities of excitation and reception of plate waves (PW) in single-layer and two-layer materials by pulsed laser radiation in relation to detection of cracks in them and estimation of layer thickness at one-sided sounding. A methodology has been developed and experimental studies of the influence of moving the area of laser generation of PW over the surface of dural samples relative to the crack simulator of different depth with the subsequent reception of the signal at a characteristic angle of inclination have been carried out. A significant change in the structure of the wave front at localization of the moving wave source zone in the vicinity of the crack simulator was found, accompanied by a change in the ratio of extreme values of amplitudes of the received asymmetric mode Aextr up to 14–15 dB. At receiving the symmetric s0 mode the value of Aextr does not exceed 3–4 dB. The interpretation of this effect is given. A method and scheme of thickness measurement of twolayer materials with metallized coating and non-metallic base (glass-textolite) is proposed and developed, where samples with copper coating and glass-textolite base of different thickness are used as an example. In this case, the velocity or propagation time of PW, between two small aperture (non-directional) transducers with an acoustic base of 43 mm, is used as an informative parameter. In this case, the estimated sensitivity of the measured circuit to changes in the thickness of the metal coating is of 0.5 μm, and the base – twice as much.

The dispersion control of micro- and nanoparticles by their images is of great importance for ensuring the specified properties of the particles themselves and materials based on them. The aim of this article was to consider the possibilities of using the Hough transform for dispersion control of overlapping particles and their agglomerates. Analysis of the application of the Hough transform for overlapping particles and their agglomerates showed the following. The particularities of the conventional implementation lead to the preferred registration of large particles, the shift of the centers of overlapping particles, and the distortion of the size values. To use the Hough transform correctly, fine-tuning of all its parameters is required. To automate this process, the dependences of the number and size of particles recorded in the image on the parameters of the Hough transform was investigated. The studies were carried out on test images with a known number and size of particles. The results showed that when the threshold parameters of the Hough transform change, the number of detected particles stabilizes near their optimal values. When the size range of particles detected by the Hough transform changes, the histogram of the particle size distribution changes. In this case, the optimal width of the range is determined by the most stable extremes of the histogram. The maximum center-to-center distance is set at least half of the optimal range. The configuration algorithm is described and implemented. It implies repeatedly running the Hough transform with different combinations of parameters. The algorithm includes stages of coarse and fine-tuning, which allows to getting closer to the optimal parameters. The efficiency of the algorithm has been confirmed on test and real images. Tests have shown that the errors in determining the size and number of particles of the multi-pass Hough transform are on the same level or exceed these indicators for analog methods.

Quantitative analysis of the structure of metals and alloys is an important part of modern metal science. To obtain quantitative data and build dependencies, metallographic image processing programs are used, oriented both for scientific research and for use in industry. Programs capable of automatically performing metallographic analysis are of great interest to consumers. When advertising such programs, it is often claimed that they allow quantitative analysis of the structure with virtually no time. The purpose of this work was to determine the time spent on quantitative metallographic analysis in some image processing programs presented on the Belarusian market. Connected and unconnected metallographic objects were considered. It is shown that automatic quantitative analysis is possible for unconnected objects (powders, cast iron graphite). The time required is within a minute. For connected objects (structures of metals and alloys after metallographic etching), the time required to detect objects and obtain digital data is 10–40 min or more, depending on the complexity of the object, which is unacceptable for factory laboratories that analyze a large number of samples per shift. Therefore, it is recommended that potential users of metallographic image processing software always require a substantive demonstration of the automatic measurement capabilities of the proposed software.

Modern tools of water supply systems monitoring at enterprises or in the housing sector use laser liquid sensing systems. In this case, as a rule, laboratory analyses of the obtained liquid samples are used, as well as spectral analysis methods when scanning the liquid with light for different wavelengths. These approaches do not allow for real-time analysis of a moving fluid flow (flow analysis). The paper considers a version for constructing of a system for online detecting and identifying emergency clots of pollutants in a liquid stream using laser radiation. The basic principles of the system construction, the block diagram of the system structure and parameters for identification of clots of substances under study flowing in the pipelines of the sewage or water treatment system at industrial enterprises are given. When constructing the system, several wavelengths of laser radiation are used, simultaneously directed to the one point of the studied clot of the studied fluid flow. Light wavelengths are determined at the stage of preparation for the study. At this initial stage of the process, optical transmission spectra of substances that are a priori possible in the studied fluid flow are analyzed. The main criterion for wavelengths choose is difference in substances optical transmission spectra at the se selected wavelengths. For the possibility of technical separation of signals at different wavelengths of the emitting radiation, the radiation fluxes are modulated. Creation of standards for identification substances in fluid flow clusters is carried out in the form of lattice functions containing the components of the substance optical transmission spectrum at certain wavelengths of laser radiation. Modulation of radiation is proposed to be carried out by controlling the pumping of each emitters of the system. The proposed system will find application in the oil and gas, processing industry, water filtration and purification systems, industrial enterprises and agricultural processing enterprises.
