Technical architecture and strategies for intelligent construction of coal preparation plant by WANG Meijun, TAN Zhanglu, LÜ Hanbing, GUI Yudian

“…Departing from the fundamental purpose and motivation of digital transformation of coal preparation plant, we 1) discuss the technical objectives and major tasks of intelligent construction of coal preparation plant based on the underlying logic of intelligent construction of coal preparation plant; 2) propose the overall technical architecture of CNSASSM for the intelligent construction of coal preparation plant based on layered architecture, with five core competence requirements: "thorough perception, deep interconnection, autonomous learning, intelligent application, and global coordination"; 3) point out the technical pathway for intelligent construction of coal preparation plant and the major tasks to be completed at each phase based on capability maturity, including the integration of standard coal preparation data at the primary phase, the research and development of business optimization algorithms at the intermediate phase, and the empowerment of artificial intelligence model on coal preparation at the advanced phase; 4) generalize a 96-word guideline of technical strategies for intelligent construction of coal preparation plant based on patterns of complex system development, so as to provide reference for the technical realization of intelligent construction of coal preparation plant from the perspective of top-level design.…”

Afocal Mirror Systems with Small Axial Dimensions by N. K. Artioukhina, L. Peroza

“…The designed systems have good correction of aberrations for the given characteristics: in the spot diagrams, the values of the RMS scatter spot do not exceed 1,35 μm; GEO radius (distance from the reference point) – 0.105 μm; together with Airy disk sizes of about 9.16 μm, indicating that the images are close to diffraction.The calculated systems can be successfully applied as part of a more complex system, as well as in systems with a synthesized aperture.…”

Dynamics of differentiation of rural North-West of Russia: main trends and features by Alexander I. Kostyaev, Galina N. Nikonova

“…Methodologically, it adopted an approach that views rural space differentiation as a product of the combined influence of the agro-industrial complex system and the ‘urban-rural’ system. The changes of interest were studied from the industrial, demographic and settlement perspectives, with a focus on indicators such as changes in acreage and livestock between 1989, 2007 and 2023, and the size of the rural population and the number of residents per rural settlement between 2002, 2010 and 2020. …”
