Bioenergetics analysis of bra-breast Interface is an important technique for improving the design of bras and promoting breast health and comfort during physical activity. The objective of this study is to evaluate the compatibility between the anatomy of the breasts and bra. The study encompasses breast anthropometry via measurement. A measurement topology was proposed to determine breast mass, volume, shape, and asymmetry under loading (with-bra) and unloading (without-bra). Using the anthropometric data, the bioenergetics of the breasts were determined and compared to the rest of the body. From the bioenergetic analysis, a larger breast could require up to 69 J of energy during walking. The average mass of a breast ranges from 500 to 1000 g. Assuming breast shape to be standard, semi-conical, semi-spherical and semi-elliptical, breast volume was determined where semi conical and semi spherical breast shapes consistently predicted lower bound volume for each breast, whereas the standard and semi elliptical breast shapes predicted higher volume for the same breasts measurements. Mathematically, the medial-lateral boundaries of the breast were described by a secant of a curve, aligned on the coronal plane, causing eccentric loading when the two breast nipples were on different transverse planes. When this variation was more than 5% volume change, asymmetric breast shapes occurred and was responsible to displace bra heterogeneously compromising fit and support. A non-linear, leaf-function describing the relationship between the breast radius and volume invoked at a given body weight. In general, the current design for a bra assumes that the breasts are symmetrical, though the current investigation proves that this is not the case. The bra needs to be redesigned to better fit women, since left and right sides are not symmetrical. This is a significant problem today, as it is estimated that nearly 80% of women wear incorrectly- sized bras; 70% wore bras that are too small, and 10% wore bras that are too big. Current investigation highlights the crucial importance of incorporating the distance between the nipples into bra design to achieve optimal support, comfort, symmetry, and minimize breast movement. It ensures that the bra cups are positioned optimally to provide effective support and enhance the natural shape of the breasts. If the current bra models are redesigned, the amount of discomfort in women could potentially decrease.

Detection of abnormal situations in the operation of communication channels

blankpage Oleg V. Chikalo, Ilya A. Obukhov

Currently, many countries have high expectations for the digitalization of economies, meaning various elements of automation. One of the most effective tools in achieving a new level of digitalization can be the Internet of Things (IoT). The development of IoT provokes the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0), which will be marked by the transition to fully automated digital production, the use of cyber-physical systems and cloud computing. Processes will be controlled by "smart" devices online. An example of such smart devices is modern telecommunications equipment, the operation of which accumulates large amounts of data - telemetry of various kinds. This "big data" can be used to predict possible future failures and other faults (abnormal situations) in the equipment itself. This article is devoted to the issue of creating models of normal behavior of various characteristics of communication channels, which is central in creating predictive diagnostics systems. Examples of such models are given.

Creation of multimodal digital twins with reflexive AGI multilogic and multisensory

blankpage Evgeniy Bryndin

Reflexive AGI multilogic, multimodality and multisensors are the basis for the multidisciplinary development of intelligent digital twins. Multimodality is implemented in several formats: text, image, speech, formulas, etc. Multilogic is implemented according to several rules or methods or ways of working with knowledge and data, and the criterion for selecting the best result from all implementations. AGI multilogic carries out judgment, understanding, perception, comparison, analysis, choice, etc. Understanding is realized using the technology of unified objectification of the ontology of subject areas for the implementation of specific activities. Multisensor systems are combined groups of electro-optical, spectroscopic and holographic sensors, and combined series of sensors, such as a thermal imager, color camera, low-light camera, laser rangefinder, laser designator, laser, pointer-illuminator and others. Multisensory systems help monitor the psyche and performance of a person at the level of medical indicators of his physical condition in the process of joint activities with digital twins. Multimodal digital twin with AGI multilogic and multisensory is good human assistant in many areas of activity.

Robotics by multimodal self-organizing ensembles of software and hardware agents with artificial intelligence

blankpage Evgeniy Bryndin

Self-organizing ensembles of software and hardware agents with artificial intelligence model the intellectual abilities of a person's natural intelligence. The Creator endowed man with various types of intellectual abilities: generation of meanings, perception of meanings, meaningful actions and behavior, sensory reaction to meanings, emotional reaction to meanings. Based on the synergy of various intellectual abilities, a person carries out life activities. For example, Dialogue is conducted on the basis of two intellectual abilities: the generation and perception of meanings. A multimodal self-organizing ensemble of intelligent software and hardware agents with artificial intelligence, based on existing knowledge and skills, is able to write poetry, draw pictures, give recommendations and solutions to specialists, manage production and systems in various sectors of the economy, and take part in scientific research. Multimodal ensembles of intelligent agents, modeling the functions of natural intelligence, contain a functional control structure. To ensure the safe and reliable use of multimodal ensembles of intelligent agents, they are being standardized internationally under the guidance of ISO. International standardization of multimodal ensembles of intelligent agents expands the market and reduces the risks of their use.
