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.

Technical vision system for analysing the mechanical characteristics of bulk materials

Date of publication: 2018-01-30
Journal: Journal of Physics: Conference Series
Authors: Boikov, A.V, Payor, V.A, Savelev, R.V.
ISSN:17426596

In this article actual topics concerned with mechanical properties of bulk materials, usage of computer vision and artificial neural networks in this research are discussed. The main principles of the system for analysis of bulk materials mechanical characteristics are described. Bulk material outflow behaviour with predefined parameters (particles shapes and radius, coefficients of friction, etc.) was modelled. The outflow was modelled from the calibrated conical funnel. Obtained dependencies between mechanical characteristics and pile geometrical properties are represented as diagrams and graphs.

Today the industry is facing a shortage of skilled workers and an aging workforce, which will eventually lead to a loss of knowledge. But augmented reality technology can connect field workers with experts who are able to provide remote guidance in real time. The subsequent advantage is that the information obtained by AR devices can be used as accumulated successful experience in the future, which facilitates decision-making in specific business processes of the company. With AR, employees gain experience and skills much faster. This paper shows the application of augmented reality technology in the maintenance of electromechanical equipment. The main functions of the augmented reality system for servicing electrical equipment are presented, the solution to the problem of integrating an augmented reality software application with existing automation systems is shown, and the methods of interaction of the developed software module with third-party modules, for example, various analytical modules, etc. are described.

Motivation towards energy saving by means of IoT personal energy manager platform

Date of publication: 2019-11-19
Journal: Journal of Physics: Conference Series
Authors: Zhukovskiy, Y, Batueva, D, Buldysko, A, Shabalov, M.
ISSN:17426596

The article presents a study of implementations of information technologies for energy saving. The study provides an analysis of cloud platforms used in the energy sector. Most platforms are used to increase equipment load factors, diagnose it, or integrate the energy infrastructure of individual systems into large systems. The article discusses the role of man in the process of improving energy efficiency. As a result of the research, it is found that the user's connection to energy saving will act as a significant motivation. The proposed cloud platform focused on the personalization of energy actions will create the prerequisites for the formation of a smart consumer. The article describes the structure and functionality of the system. As a result of the platform implementation, the user will be able not only to reduce his bills for energy, but to see the real effect of his actions in the overall balance.
