THE YIELD AND COMPOSITION OF ESSENTIAL OIL FROM SPLIT CORIANDER FRUITS
Description
The article studies dynamics of losses and the change of composition of essential oil from split coriander fruits. It is found, that in the fractions of split fruits, extracted from long-stored commercial lots of raw materials, mass fraction of essential oil is two or three times lower than in whole fruits. In the composition of essential oil from split fruits the content of valuable components - linalool, geraniol, geranyl acetate is slightly higher, and the content of undesirable hydrocarbons and camphor is lower. It is shown that from freshly split fruits, which were stored in a thin layer in the open air, the oil was intensively lost in the first three days, the losses reached 86 %. At the same time, the composition of the oil changed: the content of most volatile components - hydrocarbons decreased several times and the content of high-boiling linalool, geraniol, geranyl acetate significantly increased, which increased the quality of the oil smell. The change of composition is determined not only by the ratio of components volatility. The content of relatively high boiling camphor almost half decreased. This could be associated with less ability of fruit tissue to sorb and the ability of camphor to be easily sublimated. The content of volatile n-cymene over time increased with a simultaneous decrease in the content of γ– terpinene, which confirmed predominantly chemical way of n-cymene accumulation in coriander essential oil in conditions conducive to oxidation. It is recommended to separate the split fruits as soon as the raw materials come to the plant and to process immediately. Essential oil from split fruits can be used to adjust the composition of individual lots of oil in order to improve their quality, and to provide extraction of valuable components – linalool and geraniol by vacuum rectification method

DEFORMATION MODEL OF SAND MICROSTRUCTURE
Description
The deformation model of sand soil that takes into account the formation of clusters of particles, and method of measuring its characteristics is suggested. The physical basis of the method is the effect of the stepwise increasing of the sand probe at the odometer pressure by the constant rate of loading and the continuous measuring of deformation. The analysis of settlement and its rate has been allowed to determine the microstructural characteristics of the two-order deformation model of sand. According to the proposed model, with compression of the probe in odometer compaction of the sand takes place due to local strains on the sliding surfaces. The sliding surfaces allocate clusters of sand, and the separated layers of clusters are registered by device in the form of steps of deformation. Layer formation of clusters is initiated by the rigid stamps through the largest mineral grains. Cluster layers create the asymmetric microstructure of the sand probe, its compaction is non uniform but also anisotropic. At the initial interval value of the pressure, the formation of primary clusters occurs, and once they cover the entire probe volume, the compaction of the sand is by crushing them on the secondary smaller cluster sizes. The change of mechanism of the compaction is manifested in the sharp decrease of the settlement rate. The compaction process continues while a larger increment of pressure at each step. The deformation model allows compute the pressure value at which the compaction of the sand reaches the theoretical limit

Description
The main reason of the developmental delay of the RF livestock sector below the level of its inherent potential capacity is a detrimental alteration in methodological procedure of livestock and poultry management, occurring due to shortage of traditional feeds. As a result, a necessity to develop the yearlong production of additional fodders, allowing for balanced feeding throughout the year, arose. The method of hydroponic green fodder (HGF) cultivation meets these requirements. Analysis of HGF production methods and labor saver mechanisms makes possible to claim that existing systems are characterized by high costs and difficulties in fabrication, and require a number of additional mechanical devices to work. In the FSBEI HE “KSMTU”, a one-tier hydroponic system has been developed, fitted with curved (arched) guideways and rigid elastic load-carrying components, where loading of seeds and takeout of grown HGF occur by gravity without additional devices of labour input. Based on analysis performed on design features of the proposed system, it has been established that emergence of parametric resonances in the system under consideration is possible; and the study of tray dynamical stability has been carried out with the aim to prevent them. The motion of the hydroponic system tray under consideration is described by the classical Mathieu equation, including two parameters a and q. The further studies of sets of stable and unstable solutions in the plane of a and q parameters are presented by the Ince-Strutt diagram. As a result of the performed calculations, the diameter of the loadcarrying component was identified (d=5 mm), which should ensure reliable working capacity and stability of the hydroponic system in whole

Description
The article presents the criteria for evaluating the integration of researchers in the scientific community, based on an analysis of its citations. It is known, that one of the major components of interscientific communication (communication in the scientific community) is a citation of scientific publications (monographs, articles, etc.). According to the sociological approach, a scientist is a part of society, ie, scientific community; under scientific community we understand scientific mega environment (opposed to research groups of institutions and their structural units). Integration of a researcher to the community has many aspects: on the one hand, it is - the importance of his work to the scientific community, on the other hand, it is - the use of a scientist social mega environment for building for their personal and professional development to improve their research and improve the quality of its results (in the context of the article we will consider the second aspect). Methodological bases of the research: systematic, competence, sociological, and mega-system qualimetric approaches. Methods: modeling, methods of quality control, methods of set theory, relations and graphs. Evaluation (diagnostics) involvement of scientists in the scientific community - is more complicated metrology task than the evaluation of the significance of the results of its research activities. For the authors it is clear that a mature scientist (with a high level of research competence) should intensively use the potential of the social and the cultural science international environment (community) for their personal and professional development, to improve the efficiency of this research activities and the quality of this results. The proposed indicators can be considered as group indicator variables reflecting the level of the behavioral component of the research competence (scientist). Using social media for researcher’s potential – it is necessary, but not sufficient condition for productive research, producing goodquality scientific results. In this situation, negative prognosis is more significant: poor use of social media for researcher’s potential – is a "guarantee" for low productivity of this research activities and the low quality of this results. Only the combination of the highest levels of readiness for research (research competence) with high levels of other competences (as a whole - the social and professional competence, implying the presence of the professional skills of selforganization) can be the factors of successful research

ENERGY PERFORMANCE OF MACHINES FOR SOIL CULTIVATION
Description
Currently a significant proportion of the cost of agricultural production is energy costs. Therefore, considerable attention is paid to energy and resource saving equipment and technology. In this regard, the role and importance of the energy assessment of machines, allowing determining not only the power characteristics of the power, but fuel consumption per unit of cultivated area or per unit of output. Conducting energy assessment of machines and equipment reduces the economic and labor costs, at the expense of more detailed and optimal selection of machines and units for performing certain manufacturing operations in agricultural production. In the article we describe energy evaluation of different tillage agricultural machinery aimed at determining energy consumption when executing the set of technological operations machines and equipment on the operation modes set by the standards under which stable the operations are performed. The use of the results of energy assessments on traction characteristics of agricultural machines and tractors will allow getting the maximum effect when performing technological operations. In turn, the lack of monitoring of key energy performance of cars during their operation leads to a partial use, which increases costs
