About development of expert possibilities for consideration of equipment projects and technological decisions by D. J. Lobach

“…The purpose of the research described in the article is to formulate and substantiate the methodology for analyzing quantitative patterns of parameters of projects, devices, systems and technologies, that can be used for relative or rating comparison of projected, planned or applied investigated objects without using long-term experimental or operational data.The proposed approach to the analysis of quantitative patterns makes it possible to conduct a primary assessment of the advantages of innovative technologies, acomparative assessment of the safety of technical complexes, a targeted pre-operational assessment of equipment parameters, and to form planned distinctive parameters for the implementation of experimental and commercial technical projects.…”

Influence of Water Injection Pressure on Methane Gas Displacement by Coal Seam Water Injection by Tianwei Shi, Yishan Pan, Wenhong Zheng, Aiwen Wang

“…The test results show that with the same displacement time, the ratio of displaced methane increases with the increase in the water injection pressure. The displacement rate increases with the increase in the water injection pressure at the stage without water discharge, while the water displacement rate under different water injection pressures differed slightly; in the later displacement stage, a higher water injection pressure of the coal sample results in a faster attenuation of the displacement rate and water displacement rate due to the decrease in the methane content in the coal sample. …”

Analysis of fibrous material deformation in the roll contact zone by Khurramov Shavkat, Abrorov Akbar, Abdullaev Akhror, Norov Nusiratjon, Baymatov Shakhriddin

“…The analytical description of the shape of contact curves and the thickness of processed material in the technological zone of a two-roll module in a dynamic mode is given, considering the deformation pattern of the processed material. It is determined that one of the factors that most influence the shape of the contact curve is the ratio of the compression rate of the coating deformation to the corresponding material feed rate. …”
