Educational Center of Digital Technologies
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.

Augmented reality system and maintenance of electromechanical equipment in industrial production

Date of publication: 2019-01-01
Journal: Youth Technical Sessions Proceedings- Proceedings of the 6th Youth Forum of the World Petroleum Council- Future Leaders Forum, 2019
Authors: Koteleva, N, Bekenev, K, Valnev, V.

The oil&gas enterprises have their own safety concerns list. Poor maintenance of equipment is one of the top safety concerns for many enterprises. There are a lot of methods of increasing of safety, but its shouldn’t be used alone. A complex approach and addition the modern technologies in safety ensuring make possible not only increase the quality but increase the efficiently of production. There are a lot of kinds of quality improving of maintenance of electromechanical equipment, one of them are the augmented reality system. This is a new technology and there are no methods and effective estimation for developing and using this technology in industrial production. Developing the special unified modules of augmented reality for maintenance of electromechanical equipment is the actual task. The aim of this research-to identify possible uses, to estimate the effectiveness in ensuring the safety of production and to develop a way of integrating into typical process control systems of the augmented reality system for maintenance of electromechanical equipment.

The paper presents a methodology for training neural networks for vision tasks on synthe-sized data on the example of steel defect recognition in automated production control systems. The article describes the process of dataset procedural generation of steel slab defects with a symmetrical distribution. The results of training two neural networks Unet and Xception on a generated data grid and testing them on real data are presented. The performance of these neural networks was assessed using real data from the Severstal: Steel Defect Detection set. In both cases, the neural networks showed good results in the classification and segmentation of surface defects of steel workpieces in the image. Dice score on synthetic data reaches 0.62, and accuracy—0.81.

Monitoring the technical condition of autonomous electrical systems with electric drive

Date of publication: 2019-12-18
Journal: E3S Web of Conferences
Authors: Korolev, N, Solovev, S.
ISSN:22671242

The article discusses the structure of autonomous electrical systems with an electric drive and an electric energy generation system. An approach is described for assessing the overall efficiency of technological cycle equipment with specification of parameters that must be considered when calculating it. The necessity of taking into account energy efficiency and operability indicators of autonomous electric complexes is substantiated. The effectiveness of the use of autonomous systems decreases throughout the entire life cycle due to wear and tear. As the operability of electromechanical equipment, an indicator of the residual resource is selected. The calculation of the residual resource, with the definition of its boundary values and recommendations for further use. Nominal energy efficiency parameters of autonomous electrotechnical complexes with electric drive deteriorate during operation, which also needs to be taken into account. To simplify the assessment of the operational state of electromechanical equipment, a state diagram is presented that allows you to track the dynamics of degradation of individual nodes. Taking into account the described indicators and means of control, it is possible to increase the efficiency of using autonomous complexes.
