Assessing of a Radiation Therapy Sessionʼs Duration at the Stage of Pre-Radiation Preparation Piatkevich, M. N.; Titovich, E. V. The treatment planning process includes a review of the radiation treatment plan which leads to a decision on the patientʼs treatment technique. The scope of this study was to create a mathematical model for calculating of a radiation therapy session duration during the pre-radiation planning stage. For dosimetric planning of radiation treatment the authors provided a formula and an algorithm for determining of a patientʼs irradiation session duration. Radiation therapy session parameters such as radiation technique, number of monitor units, characteristics of radiotherapy equipment, number of radiation fields, radiation field parameters (angles of rotation of the radiotherapy coach, collimator, gantry), presence / absence of dose-modulating devices, dose rate, and duration of patient position verification procedures have all been taken into account during the development of software. The developed application explains how to define typical timing characteristics for various items as well as how to select a template from a built-in drop-down menu. If the dosimetric plan does not match for one of the templates, the program provides a space for defining of all parameters manually. The anticipated deviations of the true indicators from the expected indicators of the duration of the radiation therapy session were assessed. A total of 300 cases have been completely measured, with 100 cases studied for each irradiation technique (IMRT, VMAT, 3D). The maximum detection confidence value for the 3DCRT irradiation technique is 2.3 %, while the deviation for the IMRT and VMAT irradiation techniques is less than 1 %. The magnitude and degree of the deviation of the measured value from the expected one for a variety of characteristics and features have been revealed to depend on the actions of the personnel. The program developed allows medical physicists to analyze the timing parameters of the specified dosimetric planning methodologies directly on the treatment planning workstation. Evaluation of the duration of a radiation therapy session during the treatment planning stage, selection of various radiation treatment modalities, and consideration of the characteristics of the radiation session in each clinical case are available for analysis and further justified action.

Analysis of Illumination Generated by LED Matrices Distribution Bogdan, P. S.; Zaytseva, E. G.; Baranov, P. O.; Stepanenko, A. I. Сreation of indoor lighting systems with the possibility of changing its parameters in space and time is a promising direction within the framework of the intellectual environment system. The aim of this work was to create a methodology for calculating the illumination created by LED matrices which does not require the use of specialized software products and is adapted to the possibility of varying the parameters of LEDs and illuminated rooms. The urgency of creating a room lighting system that simulates the conditions of natural lighting taking into account the need to change its spectral composition in time, in space taking into account the physical and psychological state of a person is substantiated. The possibility of using well-known computer programs to calculate the distribution of illumination in the room is analyzed. A method has been developed for calculating the distribution of illumination on a plane using both a flat LED matrix and a matrix with an inclined arrangement of the planes of individual LEDs. It is shown that the distribution of illumination is a function of the indicatrix of the light intensity of the LED, its location in space, the number of LEDs in the matrix. Illumination distribution has been calculated for various light sources consisting of RGB LEDs both for desktop and ceiling lighting was calculated. It is established that when using matrices containing the same LEDs distribution of illumination is very nonuniform. The inclined arrangement of LED planes slightly increases uniformity reducing the maximum illumination. For ceiling lighting the option of uniform distribution of LEDs within the ceiling plane provides more uniform illumination than when the same number of LEDs are arranged in groups of matrices. Results of LED sources modeling indicate the need to modernize simple orthogonal matrices containing the same type of elements with the same power modes for all elements in order to increase the uniformity of illumination and efficiency. Such modernization can be carried out by changing the geometry of matrices differentiating the power modes of individual LEDs. The developed calculation program can be supplemented with options for introducing the above changes, as well as options for analyzing the spectral distribution of light in space.

Method for Increasing of Lens Gluing Technological Process Efficiency and a Reliable Evaluation of Output Controlled Parameters Fiodоrtsev, R. V.; Metelskaya, E. A.; Marchik, V. A.; Kuznetsov, A. V.; Makarevich., A. E. The use of glued lens components in optical devices improves the image quality of telescopic and photographic lenses or inverting systems by eliminating a number of aberrations, and also reduces light losses in the optical system of the device. The traditional production process of lenses gluing involves the sequential execution of a set of technological operations and takes a significant period of time. The purpose of the research was to improve the accuracy and productivity of the technological process of lenses gluing by improving the optical system of the control and measuring device and automating the operation of lenses optical axes combining by introducing an electronic reference system and mechanisms for micro-movements of optical parts. A technique is proposed for centering of two and three-component optical blocks by an autocollimation flare which provides a matching accuracy of less than 0.5 μm. The possibility of constructive modernization of the classic ST-41 autocollimation microscope with parallel separation of the displayed output information in the visual and television channels is shown. An automated system for controlling of the process of convergence of autocollimation points in the device is proposed. Using software methods an electronic grid template is formed on the monitor screen, onto which images of autocollimation points are projected. The decentering value 2Δe is determined and a corrective control voltage is applied to three stepper motors and pushers for transverse movement of the glued optical part. Specialized software has been developed for automatically bringing the position of the autocollimating crosshair to the center of the measuring scale of the grid based on a combination of two methods of “least squares” and “successive approximation”. Compliance with a number of technological transitions and the accompanying control of geometric parameters make it possible to achieve greater accuracy in determining the eccentricity of the crosshairs of the aligned optical axes of the glued lenses.

Methods for Accuracy Increasing of Solid Brittle Materials Fracture Toughness Determining Lapitskaya, V. A.; Kuznetsova, T. A.; Chizhik, S. A.; Warcholinski, B. Method for determining of the fracture toughness of brittle materials by indentation is described. The critical stress intensity factor KIC quantifies the fracture toughness. Methods were developed and applied to improve the accuracy of KIC determination due to atomic force microscopy and nanoindentation. It is necessary to accurately determine parameters and dimensions of the indentations and cracks formed around them in order to determine the KIC . Instead of classical optical and scanning electron microscopy an alternative high-resolution method of atomic force microscopy was proposed as an imaging method. Three methods of visualization were compared. Two types of crack opening were considered: along the width without vertical displacement of the material and along the height without opening along the width. Due to lack of contact with the surface of the samples under study, the methods of optical and scanning electron microscopy do not detect cracks with a height opening of less than 100 nm (for optical) and less than 40–50 nm (for scanning electron microscopy). Cracks with opening in width are determined within their resolution. Optical and scanning electron microscopy cannot provide accurate visualization of the deformation area and emerging cracks when applying small loads (less than 1.0 N). The use of atomic force microscopy leads to an increase in accuracy of determining of the length of the indent diagonal up to 9.0 % and of determining of the crack length up to 100 % compared to optical microscopy and up to 67 % compared to scanning electron microscopy. The method of atomic force microscopy due to spatial three-dimensional visualization and high accuracy (XY ± 0.2 nm, Z ± 0.03 nm) expands the possibilities of using indentation with low loads. A method was proposed for accuracy increasing of KIC determination by measuring of microhardness from a nanoindenter. It was established that nanoindentation leads to an increase in the accuracy of KIC determination by 16–23 % and eliminates the formation of microcracks in the indentation.
