Introduction. During the Second World War Volga ships suffered considerable losses from artillery fire and mines. Fighting for the Volga – the main waterway – continued even after the Battle of Stalingrad was over. The river was mined throughout 1943. The Volga way provided goods for the Front and back areas, includind oil, as before. Materials and methods. The study is based on the historism and objectivity principles and uses the general scientific as well as specific historical and statistical methods. The paper is based on published and unpublished archival materials as well as on scientific publications on the Volga Military Flotilla, the Volga crossings at Stalingrad, the Volga Steamship Lines and others. Analysis. The preparation for the navigation of 1943 was carried out under severe conditions when the waterway transportation facilities were being restored. The Volga Steamship Lines had suffered enormous material damage. Special agencies were created for salvaging and repair of sunken ships. The agencies included salvaging and repair squads. The Volga Military Flotilla was engaged in clearing the river of mines and wreckage. The Volga Military Flotilla ships kept escorting ship convoys as well. An integrated system for mining observation was organized on the Volga. Not only the Lower Volga was dangerous for navigation but also the Middle Volga. Results. The first period of the navigation of 1943 was characterized by slow movement of ships, mined waterway and air attack menace. During the second half of the navigation period the movement of ships was more intensive under relatively safe conditions. Shipping on the Volga became safer.

Introduction. The paper deals with the condition of industrial establishments of the Lower Volga water transport before the Second World War. The goal of the work is to establish the technical and economic condition of these Lower Volga steamship line facilities in the second half of the 1930s. All objects were studied in detail. Materials and methods. The study is based on the principles of objectivity, it applies both general scientific and specific historical methods. The paper is based on unpublished archival materials, as well as on scientific publications on river transport. Analysis and results. In 1934 the Upper Volga, Middle Volga and Lower Volga steamship lines were organized. They were big economic entities in the Volga region. At that time industrial facilities of the river transport infrastructure were developed. Those were shipyards, repairing facilities, and workshops. In the latter half of the 1930s, the Lower Volga ship repairing establishments were in the middle positions in terms of their output among the other Volga steamship lines. The Lower Volga steamship line did not have a shipyard. The equipment was mainly run for ship repairing (in winter as well) and for making spare parts. The balance of the Volga transport industrial establishments was changing. The facilities were repeatedly exchanged among the steamship lines and agencies. When the Lower Volga steamship line was just formed it had 10 industrial establishments. By the beginning of the Great Patriotic War there were half as many. The facilities were ranked in classes. The biggest establishment during the entire period studied was the Stalingrad ship-repairing works. The production capacity of the ship-repairing facilities made possible to increase workload, but the facilities needed renewal, required renovation, as well as the entire material base of the Lower Volga steamship line. When the war began the condition of the industrial establishments aggravated.

Introduction. The paper reviews the Lower Volga shipping industry before the Great Patriotic War and after the Battle of Stalingrad. The goal is to establish the loss inflicted by the invaders upon the facilities of the Stalingrad section of the Lower Volga Steamship Line that suffered most from the hostilities. Methods and materials. The study is based on the objectivity principles and applies general scientific as well as specific historical methods. The paper is based on unpublished archival materials as well as on scientific publications on the Lower Volga Steamship Line. Analysis and results. The Lower Volga Steamship Line was created in 1934. It was a big economic entity. The territory of its operation stretched along the Volga from Kamyshin down to Lagan. The Steamship Line comprised two basic sections – the Stalingrad and Astrakhan ones. Before the Second World War the Steamship Line included five production establishments (ship repairing yards and workshops), 17 transit piers, a passenger river-boat station, two local piers with registered fleet, three crossings and other facilities. The Stalingrad section was the largest. Within its boundaries the principal Steamship Line unit was situated – the Stalingrad transit pier. 90 percent of it was destroyed in the Battle of Stalingrad. The Stalingrad section of the Steamship Line suffered most from the hostilities. The total amount of damage of the Steamship Line has been established.

"Evaluating technological feasibility of fruit and vegetable transportation by sea between ports of Caspian Sea." Vestnik of Astrakhan State Technical University. Series: Marine engineering and technologies 2021, no. 4 (2021): 107–16. http://dx.doi.org/10.24143/2073-1574-2021-4-107-116.
Full textAbstract:
The modern process of fruit and vegetable transportation between countries depends not only on geographical, but also on political and economic factors, which makes for searching more efficient and shorter routes. The availability of such a transport opportunity as sea transportation between the ports of the Caspian Sea makes it possible to analyze new routes for the product transportation from Iran, Azerbaijan and other countries to Russia using dry cargo vessels that are currently used as the general cargo vessels. There have been analyzed the new routes for transportation of perishable products in refrigerated containers and assessed the possibility of their transportation on the “Volga” type bulk carriers. The routes “Astara (Azerbaijan) - Moscow”, “Astara - port Alat - port Kuryk - Moscow” have been illustrated. A general arrangement drawing of a “Volga” type dry cargo vessel (project 19610) is presented, the photographs of transporting timber and containers on the decks of dry cargo vessels are given. Calculating the load of the dry cargo ship’s power plant has shown a technical possibility of transporting 16 refrigerated containers on deck of the “Volga” type vessel without changes in the design of the ship’s power plant. Conclusions are made about the need to develop effective cargo transportation by waterways in modern conditions of the loss of traditional Russian suppliers of fruit and vegetable products, about the possibility of additional use of dry cargo ships, as well as the feasibility of developing a backup diesel generator for emergency power supply of deck refrigerated containers in connection with a possible increase in the capacity of the ship power plant.

Full textAbstract:
A mathematical model of the joint dynamics of shallow waters, entrained and suspended sediments is constructed, which takes into account nonlinear fluid dynamics and bottom deformations. The dynamics of shallow waters is described by the Saint-Venant equations taking into account the spatially inhomogeneous distribution of the terrain. The transport of entrained sediments is described by the Exner equation generalized to the case of an inhomogeneous distribution of the parameters of the underlying surface. The dynamics of suspended sediments is described by the transport equation, which includes convective transport by water flow and the process of diffusion of the suspension in the liquid layer. For numerical integration of the Saint-Venant, Exner equations and suspended sediment dynamics, a stable and well-tested CSPH-TVD method of the second order of accuracy is used, the parallel CUDA algorithm of which is implemented in the form of a software package «EcoGIS-Simulation» for highperformance computing on supercomputers with graphics coprocessors (GPU). The conditions for the development of a quarry of non-metallic building materials (NSM) located at the mouth of the Partridge Volozhka of the Volga-Akhtuba floodplain on the 2549–2550 km section of the Volga River are considered. To study the safety of navigation from the lower reaches of the Volga hydroelectric dam to the entrance to the VDSK, numerical hydrodynamic modeling of the dynamics of channel processes in this section of the Volga River was carried out. Based on the results of mathematical modeling of the joint dynamics of surface waters, entrained and suspended sediments in the riverbed of the Volga River, it is concluded that the development of the NSM quarry considered in the work does not significantly affect the safety of navigation both along the main ship course «The lower reaches of the Volga hydroelectric dam — VDSK» and on additional — «Volgograd zaton» and «Volozhka Partridge».

Full textAbstract:
The current problem of the need to modernize the Russian fleet and, in particular, the power plants of ships, is caused by the decommissioning the most of the dry cargo and bulk carriers that are in using at this moment. Over time, most of these boards have ceased to be suitable for navigation and can not be repaired, and modern shipyards and shipyards are unable to use and service new ships designed for the domestic fleet. In view of this, there is a discrepancy between the number of required boards and the volume of orders from shipbuilders. The new brand of a foreign manufacturer's engines using on dry cargo and bulk ships of the previous generation significantly reduces the operating costs and repairing diesel engine’s costs, and also increases their service life. The comparison of the aggregates used at this moment and the model under consideration is made and a conclusion is made about the expediency of using the proposed engine for the purpose the Russian shipbuilding’s and ship repair’s long-term development. Subject: the study’s subject is the possibility of using foreign ships’ dry-cargo and tanker vessels for the modernization and improvement of the sides of the selected type.Materials and methods: in the work’s course is a comparative analysis of several types of diesel engines, possible for installation on the sides of the Volga-Don and Volgoneft, was carried out.Results: as a result of the work, a comparative table was developed for the characteristics of the diesel engine’s types under consideration, and the efficiency of using the considered brand’s foreign aggregates was revealed.Conclusions: the use of Yachai YC6CL diesel engines as powerplants on board dry cargo and liquid ships is advisable, because of their undeniable advantages in comparison with domestic units and economic feasibility.

Качество работы транспортной системы страны зависит среди прочего от эффективной системы оценки рисков транспортных происшествий и налаженной системы безопасности транспортного комплекса. Целью данного исследования является апробация комплексной математической модели оценки риска транспортных происшествий на водных объектах, учитывающей как чисто экологические последствия транспортных происшествий с судами, так и влияние этих происшествий на эксплуатационные и экономические показатели работы флота. Объектом анализа стали транспортные происшествия с сухогрузными судами. Комплексный риск транспортных происшествий прогнозируется путем произведения вероятностей столкновения с соответствующими последствиями. Среди источников убытков неэкологического характера автором были рассмотрены: потерянный фрахт в результате простоя судна; эксплуатационные расходы на ремонт; убытки от повреждения имущества на борту судна и убытки, причиненные гибелью или повреждением здоровья людей. Для учета этих факторов созданная ранее база данных была дополнена данными по простою судов, сроками проведения расследований, видами повреждений в результате транспортных происшествий. В результате выполненных исследований была создана классификация участков концентрации транспортных происшествий по уровню возможного риска с учетом факторов экологического и неэкологического характера. The quality of the country's transport system depends, among other things, on an effective system for assessing the risks of such traffic accidents and an established security system for the transport complex. The purpose of this study is to test a comprehensive mathematical model for assessing the risk of transport accidents at river facilities, taking into account both the purely environmental consequences of transport accidents in an incident with ships, and the impact of transport accidents on the operational and economic performance of the fleet. The object of the analysis was transport accidents with dry cargo vessels. The complex accident risk is predicted by multiplying the collision probabilities with the corresponding consequences. Among the sources of losses of non-ecological nature, the author considered: lost freight as a result of the idle time of the vessel; maintenance costs; losses from damage to property on board the ship and losses caused by death or damage to human health. To take into account these factors, the previously created database was supplemented with data on the downtime of ships, the timing of TP investigations, types of damage as a result of transport accidents. As a result of the studies performed, a classification of areas with a concentration of traffic accidents was created according to the level of possible risk, taking into account environmental and non-environmental factors.
