During the seminar
On October 30, the traditional fifth All-Russian (national) scientific seminar "Technical Support for Accessibility of Arctic Regions" was held at St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering.
For ten years, the seminar has been attracting the attention of the scientific community to addressing the challenges arising in the development of Russia's Arctic zone. Priority issues include developing Arctic transport infrastructure, ensuring the efficient operation of ground-based transport and technological vehicles in extreme low-temperature conditions, and the growing environmental and conservation challenges posed by human activity.
The seminar was organized by the Department of Ground Transport and Technological Machines (GTM) of the Faculty of Automobile and Highway Engineering. Representatives from scientific schools in Khabarovsk, Arkhangelsk, Kaliningrad, Nizhny Novgorod, Tula, and St. Petersburg participated. Participants' presentations included information on the practical application of research results aimed at creating technological machines with electric power plants; acoustic and vibration diagnostic systems for quickly determining the operating condition of equipment; and solutions to the problem of solid waste management in the Arctic and the resulting challenges in interacting with the fragile ecosystem and biosystem of the North.
The discussion touched upon the search for new, effective technologies for servicing utility lines and maintaining roads in a safe working surface condition.
More than 150 specialists participated in the seminar, which was held in person and online, and over 40 papers were presented. It was noted that the exchange of experience and research results, as well as the search for new technical solutions, materials, operating principles, and organizational solutions, will ensure the achievement of the main objective: increasing the accessibility of the Arctic regions.
