About center
The speed of scientific and technological progress and the disappearance of certain activities associated with the penetration of automation into all areas of production and management processes are factors of possible growth for enterprises of the future. Digital integration, which integrates scientific directions, people, processes, users and data, will create the conditions for scientific and technological advances and breakthroughs, enabling scientific and economic shifts in related industries and, above all, in the global mineral market. In this regard, in 2018, for the purpose of training, research and development in the field of digital technologies for the enterprises of mineral and fuel and energy complexes, the "Educational Center of Digital Technologies" was established at the Mining University.

The use of vehicle-to-grid technology for the integration of electric vehicles in the power system of the city

Date of publication: 2019-11-19

This paper analyzes the possibility of using electric vehicles as a controlled distributed generator. Aggregation of demand and supply for electric power with the participation of batteries allows us to solve the problem of the development of the electric grid infrastructure of megacities. The absence in some areas of the city of opportunities for technological connection of consumers and significant deterioration of the network infrastructure is solved by the integration of electric vehicles in the city's power system. The article shows that information technology allows you to control the energy curve over time. At the same time, the power schedule in the loaded power centers will be deprived of pronounced highs and lows, which favorably affects the loading of generating capacities. Informatization of electric transport and the use of a digital platform will eventually become part of the concept of "smart city".

DEM calibration approach: Orthogonal experiment

Date of publication: 2019-05-04
Journal: Journal of Physics: Conference Series

The research considers conducting orthogonal experiment (OT) as one of the stages in developing a new discrete element method (DEM) parameters calibration approach. The measured responses in experiment are the parameters obtained by DEM animation processing using machine vision system (MVS). The variable factors in experiment are DEM parameters. A brief overview of an existing calibration approaches given in the article. The choice of OT as a design of experiment tool among other mathematical tools discussed. Experiments conducted using specially developed rig where bulk material's flow captured as DEM animation. DEM animation converted to video and then processed using MVS that allow register the values of such parameters as angle of repose or expiration time (measured responses). The results of the OT show that it is possible to identify four measured responses with the most valuable correlation coefficient. DEM parameters with the biggest influence on the measured responses identified for each of the obtained regression. Obtained results are useful in learning or iterative algorithms development for DEM parameters calibration.

Annotation
This paper carries out the research on the continental mining of solid minerals and on the search of the alternative solutions of raw material’s procurement for leading industries. A value of conducting underwater operations for extraction of shelf zone’s ferromanganese nodules is specified. Schematic diagram of conducting mining operations is submitted. The construction of a mining complex for mining ferromanganese nodules of the Baltic Sea with the possibility of its separation partial enrichment on the seabed during the process of production is proposed. An analytical model of the system with bottom device and flexible traction element is given. The interaction between a flexible traction element and a bottom-mining unit allows to define the character of relative motion and also to describe the position of the flexible traction element as it moves in the aquatic environment. Specific conditions for steady operation of the complex for its inseparable moving on a seabed are presented.
