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.

There is a tendency to increase the use of demand response technology in the Russian Federation along with other developing countries, covering not only large industries, but also individual households and organizations. Reducing peak loads of electricity consumption and increasing energy efficient use of equipment in the power system is achieved by applying demand management technology based on modeling and predicting consumer behavior in an educational institution. The study proposes to consider the possibility of participating in the concept of demand management of educational institutions with a typical workload schedule of the work week. For the study, statistical data of open services and sources, Russian and foreign research on the use of digital and information technologies, analytical methods, methods of mathematical modeling, methods of analysis, and generalization of data and statistical methods of data processing are used. An algorithm for collecting and processing power consumption data and a load planning algorithm were developed, including all levels of interaction between devices. A comparison was made between the values of the maximum daily consumption before and after optimization, as well as the magnitude of the decrease in the maximum consumption after applying the genetic algorithm. The developed algorithm has the ability to scale, which will increase the effect of using the results of this study to more significant values. Load switching helps to reduce peak consumption charges, which often represent a significant portion of the electricity cost.

Annotation
The article presents the results of experimental investigations of the magnitude and nature of change loads drive of mine shuttle car VS-30 used to deliver ore to extraction chambers in potash mines. The design of program-recording complex "VATUR" developed by employees of the department "Mining Electrical Engineering" Perm National Research Polytechnic University. In the investigation of operating modes of the drive of self-propelled mine wagons were carried out measurements and recording the instantaneous values of voltage and current of electric motors, calculated values of active and apparent power consumed by the motor pump stations and bottom conveyors of mine shuttle car. Carried out investigations modes of operation and changing loads on the units and details of the tram drive. It is proved that the operation of electric motors of the mine shuttle cars increased characterized by a systematic overload. Outdated system controlling the rotational speed of shafts drive motor gives rise to considerable dynamic loads on components of mechanical transmissions for shuttle cars. Significant loss of time causing the reduction in technical performance longwall set of equipment of potash mines arises during the maneuvering operations and unloading ore from shuttle cars. Based on the analysis of the change of loading drives and statistics of dangerous failures were justified the technical solutions to improve the reliability of mine shuttle car. The recommendations to increase the efficiency of transporting potash in the longwall set of equipment, improving maneuverability of self-propelled cars and reduce downtime for unloading are given.

DEM Calibration Approach: Random Forest

Date of publication: 2018-12-10
Journal: Journal of Physics: Conference Series
Authors: Boikov, A.V, Savelev, R.V, Payor, V.A.
ISSN:17426596

A lot of researchers are developing new DEM parameters calibration approaches based on an experiment plan or the use of learning algorithms. This research is aimed at improving iterative algorithms frequently used for calibration. The big time consumption as a main problem of iterative algorithms is questioned. It is proposed to use Random forest algorithm to determine DEM parameters impact on the measured bulk responses. Measured responses are the parameters obtained by image processing using a technical vision system. As a result of 200 experiments processing, DEM parameters impact values on each bulk response were generated and presented as histograms. Obtained results were interpreted on the basis of the bulk material behavior and its physical properties. There is a discussion on the possibility of developing a universal DEM parameters calibration method based on the iterative algorithm.
