Greenhouse gas emissions of global construction material production by Seth Kane, Josefine A Olsson, Sabbie A Miller

“…Both construction material production and emissions are primarily driven by structural materials, such as concrete and steel. Material selection can play a key role in reducing emissions in the context of the function, with variation in emissions of structural materials per unit strength between 0.001–0.1 kg CO _2 /kg/MPa and in insulation materials per R -value/thickness of 0.018–0.14 kg CO _2 /kg/(K⋅m ^2 W ^−1 ))). …”

Heat treatment control technology of high-strength steel gears based on support vector machine by Yanzhong Wang, Libin Zhang, Yulu Su, Hai Liu, HaiLong Yang, Yanyan Chen

“…At the present stage, the method of multi-parameter multi-level combination test block trial production is often used, but its production cycle is long, and the waste of human and material resources is serious. In this study, with the help of machine learning, a support vector machine prediction model of gear tissue distribution is constructed based on heat treatment parameters, and the radial basis functions kernel function is selected as the kernel function of the support vector machine to improve the accuracy of model prediction by optimizing the kernel parameters. …”

Current approaches to assessment of the impact of the environmental contamination on cancer risk by L. G. Solenova

“…Assessment of the impact of environmental contamination on cancer risk includes: •setting research priorities on the local, regional, and on the all-Russian levels; •the selection of the research that may be maximally socially profitable; •the choice of the research method that the most adequately meets the research objectives; •systemic analysis of the planed research to determine the availability of the resources, personnel, and information; •monitoring of atmospheric pollutions with analysis of the fraction composition of the particulate matters; •coordination of available data basis on environment and the population health conditions; •the implementation of the of molecular biology to determine prenosological manifestation of carcinogenesis and development of fine and diverse research methods on relationships between the environment and cancer risk.For effective implementation of the research objectives aimed to decrease the impact of hazard factors with special reference on cancer risk in the Russian population, it is necessary: to create training personnel capable of providing epidemiologic studies, using up-to day methods, publication of methodological materials, text books, and sufficient funding of studies.…”
