The problem of control over a dynamic object under the influence of bounded disturbances is considered. An automatic control algorithm is developed; the algorithm is reported to provide a stable systems performance and desired level of output variables under the assumption that complete measurement of the state vectors is not available. The work is based on the known auxiliary loop method for compensation of the disturbances in linear systems or systems with Lipschitz nonlinearities. The special feature of the developed algorithm consists in introduction of an additional loop into the control system to allow evaluating the effect of unmeasured disturbances and parametric uncertainties in the functioning of the object under control. The robust method of auxiliary loop is proposed to augment with an adaptive control law of variable structure, which allows to provide a high accuracy of the system in the steady state compared to the original algorithm. Results of computer simulations illustrating the performance of the proposed control scheme are presented.

Inertial engine used in short-term action devices to bring structural elements into rotational motion is considered. Torque is generated by a flat spring, and the flywheel of the engine provide the necessary momentum. Analytical expressions for calculating the size of the engine with the account for moments of inertia of its elements are presented. The formulas are derived based on the equality of angular momentum and the starting torque of the motor. The obtained expressions are used to design and manufacture a reusable experimental model of the engine; results of the model test demonstrate compliance of design characteristics with the experimental data. Absence of additional power sources reduces the cost of the developed engine and increases its reliability. The design of the engine can be used in devices used for optical image stabilization, for angular movement of astronaut seat control in the space in case of emergency, and for changing the position of rudder control of moving objects.

A technique is considered for identification of parameters of linear part of accelerometer with sensing element operating in self-oscillation mode. The identification is carried out by setting the known values of the parameters of the nonlinear element; the parameters of the linear part of the accelerometer is then determined by measuring the frequency of oscillations for given values of the parameters of the nonlinear unit.

A dual-beam pneumo-optical method for noncontact measuring of intraocular pressure is developed. The method employs pneumatic impact on the cornea of the eye and is based on presented physical and mathematical model of the effect used to determine the required parameter. 

A method of calculating the temperature of isothermal space object of spherical shape with high thermal inertia, moving in elliptical orbits in the plane of the terminator, is proposed. A criterion is formulated for a space object to be assigned to the class of objects with large thermal inertia. For these objects, the characteristic dimensions are introduced that define the total heat capacity and, accordingly, the constant thermal inertia. The possibility of substitution a real elliptic orbit in the mathematical model by equivalent circular orbit is demonstrated. The fact allows to replace the calculations of transient temperatures of heavy space objects with calculation of their steady-state temperatures almost without loss of accuracy. The approximation leads to solution of algebraic equations instead of the differential equation of the model. Thus, accurate enough values of the height of equivalent circular orbit are obtained depending on the height of the apogee of the initial elliptical orbit.

A method of constructing a formula for effective thermal conductivity of composites based on polymer binder (silicone, polyurethane, epoxy) with powder thermally conductive dielectric fillers (quartz, corundum, aluminum nitride, silicon carbide and their paired combinations) is proposed. The method is based on generalization of experimental data, calculation and experimental determination of effective thermal conductivity of aggregates of fillers, and the search of a generalized empirical coefficient in the formula analogous to the Burger formula. Designed to meet previously identified patterns in studies of three-component mixtures and statistical modeling of their effective thermal conductivity, the formula is modified to ensure the conditions of the three limit transitions. For the empirical coefficient in the formula, a power-law dependence from relationship of the thermal conductivity of the filler to the thermal conductivity of the binder is proposed. The results of calculations of effective thermal conductivity with the proposed formula in 95% of cases differ for ±20 % from interpolation values.
