  • MIL-OSI Russia: MFIs are preferable to banks – in December 2024, 70% of issued loans were microloans

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Sours: Mainfin Bank –

    Why is the popularity of MFI services growing among Russians?

    Sharp increase in share microloans in the total volume of loans issued in Russia was already observed in 2020 and 2022 – against the backdrop of the crisis and sanctions. However, it was in December 2024 that the indicator became a record, which can be explained by several reasons:

    reduction in issuance volumes consumer loans by 11% – the market slowed down amid tight monetary policy; a reduction in issuance mortgage loans by almost 17%, which occurred due to the curtailment of programs with state support; strengthening the effect of regulation of the banking sector – the Central Bank of the Russian Federation has been trying to cool the overheated market in recent years; borrowers’ sensitivity banks to high interest rates – cost loans has always been higher, clients MFO practically did not notice any changes.

    “Banks do not want to lose clients, so they open “subsidiary” MFIs, where borrowers are offered products similar to those of banks. Medium-term loans are especially popular,” the expert said.

    The share of medium-term loans in microfinance organizations has increased by 15% over the year, while the conditions for such products are significantly worse than in banks, for example, the average annual rate reaches 284%.

    What awaits the microloan market in 2025?

    Analysts predict continued high demand for MFI services – the indicator will continue to grow against the backdrop of the regulator’s policy regarding the key rate. At the same time, no new records are expected, and the Bank of Russia, which is planning to reform the industry, is capable of cooling the microfinance market. Thus, the Central Bank of the Russian Federation is preparing to divide MFIs into three groups, establishing their own rules for issuing loans for each, and then introduce a rule allowing one borrower to conclude only one agreement.

    In 2025, the growth rate of the microfinance services market may slow down to 5%, as banks adapt to the new reality and attract clients to the unsecured loan segment. Getting a microloan will still be difficult: now, as before, the percentage of refusals on applications reaches 80%, and no company offers guaranteed approval, contrary to advertising.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: New Horizons for International Tourism Education: GUU and RIAT Sign Cooperation Agreement

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: State University of Management – Official website of the State –

    On February 4, 2024, an agreement was signed between the State University of Management and the Russian International Academy of Tourism.

    On behalf of GUU, the agreement was signed by Rector Vladimir Stroyev, on behalf of RIAT – by Rector Evgeny Trofimov. Also present at the meeting were Vice-Rector of our university Maria Karelina, Director of the Institute of Personnel Management, Social and Business Communications of GUU Alexey Chudnovsky, Vice-Rector and Dean of the Faculty of Tourism Management of RIAT Elena Aliluyko, Vice-Rector for Development of Master’s and Postgraduate Programs of the Academy of Tourism Tatyana Rassokhina and Director of the Center for International Educational Programs, Projects and Public Relations of RIAT Alexey Ryabov.

    Welcoming the guests, Vladimir Stroyev noted that the Russian International Academy of Tourism has always been one of the leaders in its specialized sector. Now the state pays special attention to this area. Despite the fact that the key area for the State University of Management is industry management, tourism disciplines in the Institute of Management and Budgetary Culture are also in demand, so it makes sense to strengthen work in this area. Speaking about the international activities of the State University of Management, the rector reported that our university has a secretariat of the Eurasian Network University, which has recently been joined by educational institutions in Transnistria and Cuba, and Iran is showing increasing interest.

    “In addition to love and friendship, ESU also has material contours: 345 places for additional professional education, a budgetary master’s program, the Eurasian Olympiad,” Vladimir Vitalyevich shared. The rector also spoke about the university’s work within the BRICS Business School and the foreign internships organized by the State University of Management for graduates of the Presidential Program for the Training of Management Personnel for the Organization of the National Economy of the Russian Federation – “also entrepreneurial tourism.”

    Rector of the Russian Academic Materiel Union Evgeny Trofimov briefly spoke about the 55-year history of the academy, complained about the objective difficulties in developing international cooperation related to the geopolitical situation in the world, but at the same time noted the successes in maintaining business ties with the largest European universities and international tourism organizations, which warmly congratulated the Russian Academic Materiel Union on its anniversary in May. Some joint programs were successfully defended and will continue to operate. In addition, new agreements were signed with universities in India and the Philippines. Evgeny Nikolaevich reported that during the crisis in relations, the academy added new programs to its portfolio of educational services: customs, law, logistics, design and architecture. In total, the Russian Academic Materiel Union currently trains students in 28 areas. The academy has six branches: in Yerevan, Kazan, Pskov, two in the Moscow region and one in Moscow, at the Izmailovo hotel complex. Secondary vocational education is growing rapidly; the number of graduates has recently increased from 60 to 750 people per year.

    Vladimir Stroyev specifically focused on the development of network educational programs at the State University of Management: “We clearly understood that no university, even a large and state-owned one, can advance its agenda alone. Universities now face so many important tasks that it is very difficult to cope with them on their own. Only together are we strong.”

    Vice-Rector of the State University of Management Maria Karelina told the guests that Vladimir Stroyev and Alexey Chudnovsky were awarded the state prize in the field of education for organizing and conducting the “University Shifts” program, which is also related to tourism.

    Alexey Chudnovsky thanked his colleagues for the visit and noted their long-term joint work on international programs. It is natural that our universities came to sign a cooperation agreement. First of all, the emphasis will be on combining efforts to develop international educational programs.

    “They are of interest to your and our students, so we are taking the first step towards network agreements that will expand coverage and provide an opportunity to use each other’s network programs. Tourism is a messenger of peace, it must be taken seriously. We have something to offer each other, we are opening a second wind to international relations in the field of education and will work on additional agreements to give more opportunities to our common students,” Alexey Danilovich summed up the meeting.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: IMF Executive Board Concludes 2024 Article IV Consultation with Grenada

    Source: IMF – News in Russian

    February 4, 2025

    Washington, DC: On January 24, the Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) concluded the Article IV consultation[1] with Grenada.

    Through end-June 2024, Grenada’s economy was experiencing sustained strong growth supported by buoyant tourism, moderating inflation, and a narrowing current account deficit. A surge in Citizenship-by-Investment (CBI) revenue supported a strong improvement in the fiscal position and reduction in public debt. The financial system remained stable. On July 1, Hurricane Beryl caused damage in excess of 16 percent of GDP on the Grenadian islands of Carriacou and Petite Martinique, as well as in the northern parishes of the main island. The authorities responded swiftly with a package of fiscal measures, including suspension of fiscal rules to permit temporary deficit spending in support of the recovery and reconstruction.

    Grenada’s near-term economic growth is projected to remain resilient at 3.9 percent in 2025, buoyed by limited hurricane damages to tourism infrastructure and the authorities’ large recovery and reconstruction spending. Sizable government savings and triggering of disaster-contingent instruments create fiscal space for these spending needs. Assuming a subsequent timely return to the fiscal rules, public debt is projected to continue falling and reach the debt target of 60 percent of GDP by 2030.

    Over the medium-term GDP growth is projected to slow given the tourism sector operates near its peak-season capacity. Key downside risks include the threat of further natural disasters, potential shocks to tourism demand, and the uncertain scale of future CBI inflows, while the domestic non-bank financial system faces rising vulnerabilities from the continued rapid expansion of credit unions and the rising costs of property insurance. Prospective hotel developments and public investment projects represent upside risks to the medium-term growth outlook.

    Executive Board Assessment[2]

    Executive Directors agreed with the thrust of the staff appraisal. They welcomed Grenada’s robust economic performance in 2023 and the first half of 2024, buoyed by strong tourism. Directors also commended the authorities’ swift and prudently tailored response to Hurricane Beryl, which supported disaster-relief and helped mitigate the impact on economic growth. Noting that the medium-term outlook remains subject to risks from natural disasters, uncertain Citizenship-by-Investment (CBI) flows, and other external shocks, they encouraged the authorities to exercise continued fiscal prudence and to pursue structural reforms to boost long-term growth and enhance resilience, while leveraging Fund technical assistance.

    Directors welcomed Grenada’s commitment to fiscal prudence and debt sustainability and emphasized the importance of a timely return to the suspended fiscal rules. In that context, they noted the need for continued expenditure prioritization and revenue mobilization to create fiscal space for future investment needs, including for climate resilience. Further strengthening public investment management and budget planning processes would also be important. Directors also saw merit in developing a more uniform framework for managing all CBI resources and encouraged continued progress in resolving outstanding official arrears.

    Directors welcomed the banking system’s resilience despite repeated shocks. They emphasized the need for vigilance and strengthened oversight in the rapidly expanding credit union sector. Directors encouraged strengthening data collection and regional collaboration in the property insurance sector, given rising premiums. They also agreed that further enhancements in the AML/CFT frameworks are essential, including to safeguard correspondent banking relationships.

    Directors commended the authorities’ implementation of Grenada’s Disaster Resilience Strategy including investments in a risk-layering framework of disaster-contingency insurance and financing instruments. Moving forward and noting the risk of future natural disasters, they emphasized the importance of further advancing the energy transition and investment in disaster resilient infrastructure, with support from private financing.

    Directors also encouraged sustained structural reform efforts to foster long-term growth, including investing in active labor market policies and continuing efforts to support off-season and niche tourism. Addressing data gaps is also important.

    It is expected that the next Article IV Consultation with Grenada will be held on the standard 12-month consultation cycle.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Sobyanin presented awards to young researchers ahead of Russian Science Day

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    On the eve of Russian Science Day Sergei Sobyanin presented to young scientists Moscow Government Prizes for 2024.

    “We never had so many competitive applications – more than 1300 works have been announced. And choosing you for us was also not an easy business. So these are really deserved awards that you deserve with your talent, skill, commitment to science. And of course, I hope that these awards in your life are not the last, but only the beginning of your large scientific career. In recent years, our country has been in difficult conditions of international sanctions, a special military operation. And more than ever, issues related to the technological sovereignty of our country in almost all key areas, starting from space to medicine. In recent years, we had to solve very difficult issues related to domestic industry, and high technology supply. And of course, the demand for own scientific research, for domestic science, for technologies related to both the military-industrial complex and with civilian technologies, more than ever. And what you do in your areas, inventing important, necessary technologies, opening new technologies for medicine, astronautics, aircraft building, new materials, creating a huge layer of inventions in the field of medical technologies, of course, is also very cool. Without this, we do not have to talk about any sovereignty. So you do a very important work, of course, for yourself as scientists, for the city, one of the most advanced technological centers not only of our country, but also the world, well, for Russia – for sovereignty, for security, for the future of our great power “, – said Sergey Sobyanin.

    The Moscow mayor thanked the scientists for their work on his own behalf and on behalf of Muscovites and congratulated them on their well-deserved awards. According to him, a decision was made to double the size of the bonus, which has not been indexed since 2019. The bonuses received by young specialists today are also planned to be recalculated taking into account the increase.

    The Moscow Government Prize Competition for Young Scientists has been held since 2013. Awards are given annually for achieving outstanding results in fundamental and applied scientific research in the field of natural, technical and humanitarian sciences, as well as for the development and implementation of new technologies, equipment, devices, equipment, materials and substances that contribute to improving the efficiency of activities in the real sector of the economy and the social sphere of the capital.

    Young Moscow scientists under the age of 35 (doctors of sciences under the age of 40) may apply for the award. We are talking about scientific and scientific-pedagogical workers, postgraduate students, doctoral students, and other specialists engaged in scientific and scientific-technical activities in scientific and higher education organizations located in the city, as well as employees of enterprises and organizations conducting experimental developments.

    In 2019, at the suggestion of the Mayor of Moscow, the size of one award was increased from 1.5 million to two million rubles. If the award is given to a research team, it is divided equally between its members, and diplomas are awarded to each of them.

    The number of awards has also increased from 33 to 50. At the same time, the number of nominations remains unchanged (22), including 11 nominations in the field of research and the same number in the field of development.

    During the competition for the awards in 2013–2024, more than eight thousand applications were submitted. The awards were given to 758 young scientists.

    In 2024, 1,332 applications were received from employees of 310 organizations.

    The prize is awarded since 2013 for outstanding results in fundamental and applied research. Moscow scientists under 35 years of age, and doctors of science under 40 years of age can apply for it. Compared to the previous year, the size of the prize has been doubled – from two to four million rubles,” the Mayor of Moscow wrote in his telegram channel.

    The awards were won by 78 researchers whose developments and research have already proven themselves in practice.

    Photodetectors, biostimulators and vacuum tubes

    Moscow is the center of Russian science

    By decision of Vladimir Putin, the years 2022–2031 have been declared in Russia Decade of Science and Technology.

    Moscow has one of the most powerful intellectual and technological potentials among the world’s megacities. The capital is home to 840 scientific organizations — 20.3 percent of all organizations conducting research and development in Russia. Among them are academic and research institutes, national research universities and leading universities of the country.

    Moscow employs 33.3 percent of the country’s scientific personnel, including 44.9 percent of doctors of science and 38.5 percent of candidates of science. 22.3 percent of undergraduates and 42.2 percent of postgraduates in Russia study in the capital’s universities.

    The Moscow government attaches great importance to the development of science and the stimulation of scientific work. The largest project of the coming years in the field of scientific development is the creation of the innovative scientific and technological center of the Moscow State University (MSU) named after M.V. Lomonosov “Vorobyovy Gory”. In 2023, the Lomonosov cluster, the flagship of the MSU innovation center, opened. Its residents are 76 companies, employing more than two thousand employees.

    High-tech companies create developments in the fields of medicine, information and biotechnology, unmanned systems, robotic systems and other areas. Every year, the cluster residents invest more than two billion rubles in scientific research.

    In 2024, the creation of a new campus of the Bauman Moscow State Technical University was completed. As part of the project, 14 buildings with a total area of about 170 thousand square meters were built and restored. The campus includes a central cluster, a multifunctional scientific and educational building, a multifunctional complex “Quantum Park”, a center for biomedical systems and technologies, research and engineering centers, the Palace of Technologies and other buildings, which have all the necessary conditions for modern educational and research activities.

    Large-scale scientific and innovative projects include the construction of a national space center, the creation of production clusters for photonics, electric vehicle manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, unmanned aerial vehicles, as well as support for the development of artificial intelligence technologies.

    47 Moscow technology parks have become a huge space for the development of applied science and innovation, where more than 2,200 high-tech companies have located their production, and over 74.5 thousand jobs have been created there. About a third of the residents of technology parks work in the field of scientific research and certification.

    Four technology parks were created on the basis of research institutes. The Kurchatov Institute technology park conducts research in the field of nuclear physics and genetics, and develops new methods of storing and transmitting data. The Research Institute of Computer Complexes (NIIVK) technology park creates new communication and navigation systems, as well as technologies for the space industry. The Innopark VNIRO technology park conducts research in the field of fisheries and biotechnology and is engaged in new methods of processing and storing food products. The Moscow State University Science Park technology park works in the field of biology, chemistry, physics and other sciences.

    Putin: Moscow has fully fulfilled its obligations to create the MSU clusterDigital platforms and useful services: which projects reached the final of the fourth stream of the capital’s “Academy of Innovators”

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Mikhail Piotrovsky became an Honorary Doctor of SPbPU

    A ceremony of presenting the mantle and diploma of Honorary Doctor of SPbPU to the General Director of the State Hermitage Museum Mikhail Piotrovsky took place at Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University.

    The decision to award this high title to the head of the country’s main museum was made unanimously by the members of the Academic Council on December 2, 2024.

    It is a great honor and happiness for us that such a legendary person as Mikhail Borisovich Piotrovsky has appeared in the ranks of the Polytechnics, without exaggeration, – SPbPU Rector, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences Andrei Rudskoy opened the ceremony and asked the Scientific Secretary of the Polytechnic Dmitry Karpov to present the new Honorary Doctor in accordance with protocol.

    It would seem that there is no person not only in St. Petersburg, but also far beyond its borders, who would not know the historian-orientalist, doctor of historical sciences, professor, academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Russian Academy of Arts, Honorary Citizen of St. Petersburg Mikhail Borisovich Piotrovsky. However, Dmitry Karpov found such words and such an unusual presentation for the presentation of Mikhail Piotrovsky that the personality of the Hermitage director was revealed in a new and vivid way. The book “Good Tone. Conversations Without Courage, Recorded by Irina Klenskaya” helped with this. Thus, based on quotes from Mikhail Borisovich himself, Dmitry Anatolyevich composed a lively and figurative essay.

    Quote: Only culture is capable of transforming chaos into strict order, and the chaos of the world into harmony. That is why the Hermitage is becoming an important and powerful player in the public life of not only the country, but the entire world.

    Dmitry Karpov recalled the “Great Hermitage” program, which is based on the idea of making the collections of the country’s main museum accessible through a complex of open storage facilities and satellite museums. Cultural and educational centers have already been built: “Hermitage-Kazan”, “Hermitage-Ural”, “Hermitage-Vyborg”, “Hermitage-Siberia” in Omsk and “Hermitage-Eurasia” in Orenburg. They are being built in Kaluga, Nalchik, Vladivostok.

    Polytechnic students are well aware of the long-term and fruitful joint work of the university and the Hermitage: since 2016, an agreement on cooperation in the development and improvement of engineering systems and security systems for Hermitage facilities, in the field of 3D modeling, has been in force. During the year of the pandemic, Polytechnic students made about 11 thousand protective screens and masks for the museum. At the end of 2023, the agreement was updated and expanded. Within the framework of cooperation, the following are carried out: excursions for students Polytechnic University in the Restoration and Storage Center of the Hermitage “Staraya Derevnya”, thanks to which future specialists become familiar with modern engineering technologies, automation systems and support for the climate parameters of the storage facility, as well as the functioning of alternative energy.

    Dmitry Anatolyevich cited an excerpt from a story about the Atlanteans of the New Hermitage, work on which began in 1845: “Never in Europe has any sculptor produced such figures from granite as the ancient Egyptians and Greeks did. Now this fantastic art, this great skill has become Russian” – this is how contemporaries spoke about the creation of Alexander Ivanovich Terebenev.”

    The St. Petersburg Polytechnic University also has a special feeling for the Hermitage Atlanteans – in 2022, the team of the NTI Center of SPbPU completed laser scanning of the portico of the New Hermitage and the sculptures of the Atlanteans and processing of the obtained data. Based on the results of the work together with the Hermitage art historians, a large two-part article was published: “Information modeling for the preservation of cultural heritage: the portico of the new Hermitage building and the sculptures of the Atlanteans.”

    Laser scanning and data processing of the interior of the New Hermitage building was also carried out to create three-dimensional models as part of the “Virtual Tour of the Hermitage” project, and scanning of the Alexander Column on Palace Square.

    “It is a great honor and responsibility for the university to make a feasible contribution to the preservation of truly priceless symbols of our city, our common cultural heritage,” Dmitry Karpov emphasized, concluding the presentation. “Deeply respected Mikhail Borisovich, we are proud of our country, our culture and our Hermitage. And the fact that together with you we do everything possible so that our country is strong, rich, glorious and respected.”

    After this, the rector of the Polytechnic announced: “Bring in the Honorary Doctorate diploma, the mantle and the medal!”

    According to tradition, the doctoral gown and cap were brought into the hall of the Academic Council by students dressed in the uniform of polytechnics of the early 20th century. The ceremony was accompanied by the Gaudeamus anthem performed by the Polyhymnia choir. Mikhail Borisovich was presented with a book about the Honorary Doctors of the Polytechnic University – his page is in it.

    In his response, Mikhail Piotrovsky thanked for the honor bestowed upon him and noted that the tradition of conferring Honorary Doctors of the Polytechnic University is an important element of St. Petersburg culture. Mikhail Borisovich emphasized that he is connected with the Polytechnic University not only by long-term cooperation, but now by joint work in the St. Petersburg branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, headed by Andrei Rudskoy.

    “We have many different connections,” noted Mikhail Piotrovsky. “My deputy, Alexey Valentinovich Bogdanov, associate professor, teaches at the Polytechnic University, 49 graduates of the university work at the Hermitage, you give us wonderful personnel. What we are doing together is the most important topic today for society: the combination of science and art. We have many opportunities for further joint work, entire programs that are very important both for us and for the development of science. We would like students, under the guidance of teachers, to participate in our digitalization processes, primarily in the field of big data. Together we could make an exhibition of beautiful exhibits of technical progress preserved in the Hermitage – wonderful astrolabes, spheres, globes, clocks. We have them, they all function, but it would be good to tell about them beautifully, developing the experience of the multimedia Hermitage. Today, the “Great Hermitage” was mentioned, our next project is “Heavenly Hermitage”, a cloud-based one, it is a backup copy in which everything that is not done in the earthly Hermitage can take place. And here we would like your intellectual and expert help.”

    Mikhail Piotrovsky said that the Hermitage has many advisory councils, and it would be possible to create a separate student council, under the leadership of teachers. As ideas for cooperation with students, Mikhail Piotrovsky also suggested thinking about forecasting the condition of museum objects and “taming technology.”

    In closing the ceremony, Andrey Rudskoy thanked Mikhail Piotrovsky for his businesslike approach and outlook on the future and promised that all ideas and proposals were accepted, would be discussed and implemented.

And the growing interest among applicants from Asian and African countries, from the CIS countries only confirms HSE’s reputation as a leading research university with the competencies of the future not only in Russia but also abroad. Moreover, both in full-time and online forms,” noted Victoria Panova, Vice-Rector of HSE University. – After all, in a rather difficult time, HSE, along with 10 world universities, entered the number of leaders in distance education according to the rating of THE Online Learning Rankings 2024 magazine. A wide range of programs in the socio-economic and humanitarian areas, in the creative sphere, brilliant teachers from almost 50 countries of the world, a high level of support for international students and modern infrastructure of HSE – all this meets international standards, and the cost of education is often lower than in Western universities. Applicants and their parents evaluate the advantages and opportunities that HSE provides during and after their studies, and choose us.”

    What opportunities does the university offer to international applicants?

    One of the key advantages for international applicants to HSE remains the opportunity to choose the admission format. The university offers two options: a competition for budget (quota) places under the state scholarship of the Government of the Russian Federation, which covers up to 100% of the cost of education, and admission on a commercial basis.

    Foreign applicants can receive a Russian Government scholarship (quota) based on the results of international Olympiads (applicants to a bachelor’s degree) and based on the results of selection events (minimum scores for Master’s degree And bachelor’s degree).

    Additionally, applicants to undergraduate programs may re-credit results of international and national examinations, which makes the admission process even more flexible.

    Preparing for Study: What to Do If You Don’t Know Russian

    HSE offers to master the Russian language in The Center for the Preparation of Foreign Students, choosing to study for one year. Applicants to the bachelor’s degree program can take specialized entrance examinations and apply for a budget (quota) place with an additional year of preparation and Russian language training. A similar option is possible for future master’s degree students: upon successful completion of the portfolio competition, they can also receive a budget place with a year of training.

    HSE – accessible, convenient, understandable

    Website for international applicants has been translated into seven languages, including Chinese, Spanish, Arabic and Hindi, allowing candidates to easily find the information they need and navigate the admissions process. In addition, international applicants are contacted on social media and during webinars, answering the most pressing questions about education, visas, life in Russia and even whether there are places with halal food.

    “We strive to attract only the best. We work with talented schoolchildren and applicants on an ongoing basis,” says Alexander Deyev, Director of Talent Abroad. “HSE ensures simplicity and accessibility of the entire process — from online application submission to the start of studies. We understand that entering a university, especially in a foreign country, is an important step that can be associated with many difficulties, especially for international students. Therefore, every year we do everything possible to make the application and document preparation process as clear as possible. Online consultations, personal support at all stages of admission, preparation for arrival in Russia — all this allows our applicants to feel confident and calm, to know that they will always be supported and helped to solve any problem that arises.”

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Marat Khusnullin: A water pipeline was built in the LPR to provide stable water supply to more than 75 thousand residents of the republic

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Government of the Russian Federation – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    A new 33 km high-pressure main water pipeline has been launched in the Luhansk People’s Republic. The new facility connects the cities of Molodogvardeysk and Sverdlovsk. It will provide uninterrupted water supply to more than a thousand residential buildings and social institutions, Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin reported.

    “The previous water pipeline, which is intended for Sverdlovsk, the villages of Komsomolsky and Mirny, as well as part of the Krasnodon district, was so worn out over 50 years that residents were sometimes left without water for weeks due to frequent accidents. We approached this issue in a comprehensive manner, using the mechanism of special treasury loans for the construction of the facility. Now the new main line is already stably supplying water to more than 930 apartment buildings, over 110 social institutions, as well as individual residential buildings, which has improved the quality of life of more than 75 thousand residents of the Lugansk People’s Republic,” said Marat Khusnullin.

    The operator of the projects implemented using special treasury loans is the Territorial Development Fund. The work on the site was carried out under the direct supervision of the “Technical Customer of the FRT”.

    “The water pipeline is designed to supply drinking water in the volume of up to 30 thousand cubic meters per day, which requires high wear resistance from it. During the construction of the water pipeline, various types of steel and plastic pipes of different diameters were used. To launch the strategic facility, Rospotrebnadzor conducted water tests and confirmed its safety, which made it possible to complete the technological connection of the new water pipeline to the pumping station that supplies water to residents,” added Ilshat Shagiakhmetov, General Director of the public-law company “Fund for Development of Territories”.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: RN-Purneftegaz produced 280 millionth ton of oil

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Rosneft – Rosneft – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    The accumulated production of RN-Purneftegaz, one of the main centers of Rosneft oil and gas production in Yamal, has reached 280 million tons of oil since the start of field operation in 1986. This result was made possible by pioneering oil workers and the entire team of RN-Purneftegaz. The qualifications of the company’s specialists, non-standard engineering solutions, and many years of work have allowed the development of the most complex fields in terms of structure, the creation of a powerful production infrastructure from scratch, and the introduction of innovative technologies.

    The total area of licensed areas located in the Purovsky District is more than 14 thousand square kilometers. The operating stock exceeds 2.7 thousand wells, and the length of pipelines is about 4 thousand kilometers.

    In 2024, the company launched the Yuzhno-Tarkosalinskoye field into commercial operation and also began developing new deposits of the Verkhnepurpeyskoye and Komsomolskoye fields. The development of a new resource base will allow maintaining a stable level of raw material production in the medium term.

    The complex geological structure of a number of fields under development requires the selection and implementation of innovative technologies for drilling and oil production. The company successfully uses a domestic automated drilling control system. The development has reduced the drilling time by an average of 11.7 hours/well. The automated intelligent system operates on the autopilot principle: based on the initial parameters, the automation makes adjustments to the control of the technological process without the operator’s participation. At the same time, a high level of industrial safety is ensured.

    RN-Purneftegaz pays special attention to environmental protection. The company carries out systematic work on reforestation and preservation of aquatic biological resources of the region. Over the past three years, more than 1.2 million pine seedlings have been planted on an area of 340 hectares in Yamal. The company has released more than 2.1 million fry of valuable fish species – peled, carp, nelma and muksun – into the rivers of the Ob-Irtysh basin.

    The city of Gubkinsky, built by oil workers, is the base for RN-Purneftegaz. With the support of Rosneft, most of the socially significant facilities were built here: a city hospital, a children’s library, music and art schools, two swimming pools, an indoor ice rink, and a number of residential complexes. The city-forming enterprise provided financial assistance in the construction of the Neftyanik Palace of Culture and Sports. The construction of an Ice Palace with a total area of 6,500 sq. m. is underway. The new facility will allow Gubkin residents to engage in winter sports all year round.

    For over twenty years, the company has been providing ongoing support to the indigenous peoples of Yamal, helping to preserve their culture and traditional way of life. With the support of RN-Purneftegaz, a program to develop education for children of the indigenous peoples of the North who lead a nomadic lifestyle has been implemented in the region since last year. Grants from oil workers have been used to publish teaching aids in the language of the Forest Nenets – a textbook, a workbook, and an online simulator for elementary grades. The district is also developing the practice of preparing children for school directly in the places where families live – in nomadic kindergartens.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: The second stage of the major repairs of the Krasnopresnensky overpass has begun

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    The second stage of the major repairs of the Krasnopresnensky overpass has begun. About 100 workers and specialists are employed at the site. Excavators, loaders, manipulators, rollers, asphalt pavers, a beam dismantling unit, compressors and generators are involved in the work.

    There are currently four lanes for cars: two each in the direction of Begovaya Street and 1905 Street. A temporary dividing barrier with red signal lights has been installed between the oncoming directions. Fences, information boards and temporary road signs have also been erected in the work area. Pedestrians can use the sidewalk located outside the work boundaries. The speed limit on the overpass is 40 kilometers per hour.

    “The dismantling of the bridge deck has now been completed. Specialists have begun dismantling the beams of the superstructure. A total of 90 beams will be dismantled. Each weighs over 50 tons, and is 24.3 to 33.7 meters long. The work is being carried out at night and during the day, depending on the process windows, in agreement with the railway workers. At present, 14 beams have already been dismantled, located on the side of 1905 Goda Street and above the railway tracks,” said the deputy head of the capital’s Department of Capital Repairs.

    Anton Akulov.

    To determine which technology to use for the safe dismantling of each beam, specialists conduct laboratory testing of its condition. For this purpose, special openings are made to provide access. If the defects are significant, the beam will be sawn into pieces and dismantled. In this case, supporting underbridge elements can also be used. If the beam is strong, it can be dismantled entirely.

    To dismantle the beams of the superstructure, an assembly unit is used. This is a specially designed lifting crane that moves along the rails laid on the overpass. After the beams are disconnected using a diamond cutting machine, the unit lifts them with special grips and takes them to the storage site. The dismantled beams are crushed and disposed of at special landfills.

    Anton Akulov added that 60 beams out of 90 will be dismantled using an assembly unit. Then the rails will be dismantled, and the remaining beams will be dismantled using truck cranes. After the repair of the bridge structure supports is completed, they will begin installing new beams that meet modern requirements for strength and load resistance. They will be protected from corrosion using special means. Then they will install expansion joints and begin forming the bridge deck. The beams will be covered with monolithic slabs, leveling layers will be applied, and then waterproofing and asphalt will be performed.

    At the final stage, the builders will install a curb and equip sidewalks, along which they will install lighting poles and put the railings in order. In addition, it is planned to repair the staircases and the granite cladding of the overpass. Specialists will also reconstruct the exit onto Bryansky Post Street.

    Tests were successfully conducted on the Krasnopresnensky overpassMajor repairs of Krasnopresnensky overpass are already half complete

    Krasnopresnensky overpass runs over the railway tracks of the Smolensk direction of the Moscow Railway and connects 1905 Goda and Begovaya streets with Khoroshevskoye Highway. It is part of an important city road. It was decided to carry out major repairs in stages, without closing the bridge completely. The first stage was completed in January of this year.

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    The Discover Moscow portal has six new audio guides for independent walks around the city. Now residents and guests of the capital can go on an audio-guided tour, during which they will be told about iconic architectural sites.

    “We try to make getting to know the history and architecture of Moscow fascinating and accessible to everyone. It is important to us that everyone can explore the city at any time in a convenient format and at their own pace. Therefore, adding audio guides to thematic routes is one of our traditional areas of work to popularize the cultural heritage of the capital,” said the head of the Moscow City Heritage Department.

    Alexey Emelyanov.

    One of the routes is dedicated to the 240th anniversary of the birth of the architect Osip Bove, who restored the center of Moscow after the fire of 1812. Among his significant works are the Gostiny Dvor building and the Theater Square with the Bolshoi Theater. Another route introduces listeners to the work of Fyodor Shekhtel.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: “Electronic House”: platform specialists answered the five most popular questions from Muscovites

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    Platform “Electronic House” has become an indispensable tool for Muscovites. It helps to participate in the life of the house, saving time and effort on solving both routine household issues and those that are important for all residents of an apartment building. Thanks to the platform, you can, for example, hold general meetings of owners (GMOs) and surveys, send requests about problems in the house or in the yard, post ads, transmit meter readings, and also pay utility bills.

    The platform’s specialists help Muscovites understand the functionality and intricacies of the “Electronic House”. They answered the most popular questions from users, which they ask on social networks and in the “Feedback” section on the website and in the application.

    Questions about the OSS: what does an administrator do and who can become one

    Questions related to general meetings of owners are most often received from city residents. Last year alone, the platform hosted more than 10 thousand OSS.

    Experts note that when holding a general meeting of owners in an apartment building using the platform, an important role is assigned to the administrator. He creates a new general meeting of owners in the system at the request of the initiator, notifies residents of the upcoming meeting, and also collects paper ballots if the owners do not want or have the opportunity to vote electronically.

    “Any owner of premises in an apartment building or a management organization can become an administrator of the general meeting of owners. At the same time, according to the Housing Code of the Russian Federation, at the first general meeting of owners in the system, the role of the administrator is performed by the initiator of such a meeting, and for subsequent ones, his candidacy is approved by a decision of the owners also within the framework of the general meeting of owners. The owners can change the candidacy of the administrator by including this issue in the agenda of any subsequent meeting,” said Alena Krutakova, head of the Electronic House project.

    Where to view the results after the completion of the general meeting of owners

    Based on the results of the AGM, a protocol is formed with the decisions of the owners on all issues on the agenda, signed with the electronic signature of the operator of the Electronic House system. All users of the platform can get acquainted with it in the section “Polls and meetings of owners” of the personal account (the “Meetings” tab). There, the initiator of the AGM can also download appendices to the protocol, which contain decisions, powers of attorney for representatives of the owners and other documents.

    Is it possible to hold a general meeting of owners in a house with a homeowners association?

    According to experts, if the management method chosen in the house is through a homeowners’ association (HOA), then the meeting can be held in exactly the same way on the “Electronic House” platform. However, it is worth paying attention to the agenda items.

    “It is important to distinguish between the general meeting of owners and the general meeting of members of the HOA: their competence includes different issues, enshrined in Articles 44 and 145 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation. For example, determining the amount of the contribution for major repairs is an agenda item exclusively for the general meeting of owners; HOA members cannot make such decisions. At the same time, the meeting of HOA members can consider issues of approving the annual plan for the maintenance and repair of common property in an apartment building or changing the chairman of the HOA board. In the “Electronic House”, owners of premises in buildings managed by the HOA can only hold a general meeting of owners; holding a meeting of HOA members on the platform is not provided for,” explained Alena Krutakova.

    Who is responsible for troubleshooting in the house and yard?

    The platform’s specialists explain that the proper condition of the common property in the building is monitored by the management organization or HOA (depending on the chosen management method). They are also responsible for eliminating deficiencies in the yard if the adjacent territory is part of the common property.

    Where to find information about city points received for activity on the platform

    On the platform there are points of the city loyalty program “A Million Prizes” are awarded for active participation in the life of the house. For example, for transmitting meter readings, paying utility bills, holding and participating in the general meeting of owners, or posting an ad for the first time. They are displayed in the user’s personal account in the “My points” section. The total number of city points received for active participation in all electronic projects of the capital is also visible there. It is also convenient to go from this section to the “Million Prizes” website, where city points can be used to receive goods and services from program partners. In addition, points can be donated to charity.

    You can find answers to most questions, as well as get more detailed information about the platform’s capabilities, in the Knowledge Base on the website and in the Electronic Home app. If you cannot find the answer to your question, users can leave a message in the Feedback section on the ed.mos.ru website or in the More tab of the Technical Support section in the mobile app.

    The Electronic Home platform was launched in November 2020. It helps manage your home online using a website or app. Users have the opportunity to receive important notifications about events in the house in a timely manner, such as hot water supply outages or elevator repairs. You can also report problems in your apartment, house, and yard to the management company, pay for utilities, transmit meter readings, communicate with neighbors in a chat, and hold general meetings of owners electronically.

    The project is being developed by the State Institution “New Management Technologies” together withDepartment of Information Technology the city of Moscow.

    The creation, development and operation of the e-government infrastructure, including the provision of mass socially significant, as well as other services and services in electronic form, corresponds to the objectives of the national project “Data Economy and Digital Transformation of the State” and the Moscow regional project “Digital Public Administration”.

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    This year, specialists from the city services complex will renew more than 300 ventilation shafts of utility collectors. This was announced by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Housing and Public Utilities and Improvement Petr Biryukov.

    “The main task was to organically fit these structures into the urban landscape, so the old houses were replaced by modernized lattices,” explained Petr Biryukov.

    Ventilation shafts are above-ground parts of utility manifolds through which air enters. They are necessary for the smooth functioning of underground engineering structures.

    Modernization of ventilation shafts has been carried out in the capital since 2011, when large-scale programs for the improvement of streets and public spaces began to be implemented. Specialists dismantle old metal structures on the shaft heads, thoroughly clean the surfaces, restore the concrete layer and waterproofing. If necessary, they change the fans. At the final stage, the structures are faced with granite. When carrying out the work, the craftsmen use materials and equipment from Russian manufacturers.

    The capital’s collector system is a unique underground city, unparalleled in terms of length, network ramifications, and compactness of the communications laid inside. The total length of the collectors is more than 815 kilometers, and the number of ventilation shafts exceeds 13 thousand.

    Last weekend, February 1 and 2, the Moskino Cinema Park hosted a grand celebration of the Chinese New Year, in which more than 10 thousand people took part. A varied program was prepared for visitors, which did not leave either children or adults indifferent.

    Chinese Folklore, Dragon Dancing and Mandarin Throwing

    You could learn about Eastern secrets and myths in the quest “The Coming of the Chinese Spirit”. More than two thousand people took part in it, and their task was to catch the hungry Nyan and get a prize. The guests had to find red objects, and to do this, they had to distract the monster from Chinese mythology, make him laugh and make noise. The participants completed the task and won.

    Fun games in Chinese style were held near a natural green screen in the open air. Children and adults assembled puzzles with images of a dragon, rolled balls through a wooden labyrinth, threw oranges at targets, made cubes from multi-colored figures and played tangerine tic-tac-toe.

    In Chalet No. 1 on the Central Square, master classes were held, where those who wanted to painted white Chinese lanterns with patterns, learned calligraphy under the guidance of masters, and molded a dragon from air plasticine. In addition, street classes were held in Chinese national dance with a dragon. A large head and a long tail on sticks were distributed among the participants. They smoothly moved around the square, creating the illusion that the dragon was hovering in the air.

    The scenery of the Gonzaga Theatre featured Chinese folklore. Drummers performed there: the artists were dressed in traditional costumes and performed rhythmic compositions.

    Master classes, performances and excursions

  • MIL-OSI Russia: More than 100 thousand gas stoves have been checked in Moscow since the beginning of the year

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    Since the beginning of this year, specialists from the city services complex have checked more than 100 thousand gas stoves installed in Muscovites’ apartments. This was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Housing and Public Utilities and Improvement Petr Biryukov.

    “In January, we checked the functionality and compliance with safety requirements of over 100 thousand gas stoves. If violations are detected, gas workers eliminate the safety threat and give recommendations for further operation and repair. Information about the dates and times of inspections is posted on stands installed in entrances and courtyards,” noted Petr Biryukov.

    Gas safety issues are under special control. According to the head of the city economy complex, specialists conduct scheduled maintenance of all gasified housing stock annually.

    In the capital, about 1.8 million families use gas stoves. In order for the equipment to operate safely, it is very important to check it in a timely manner. Responsibility for maintaining and replacing gas equipment lies with the owner or tenant of the residential premises.

    The service life of a gas stove is on average 10-12 years. After that, gas taps wear out, burner diffusers become deformed, and the thermal insulation of the oven is damaged. It is impossible to maintain the safe operation of such devices; replacement is necessary.

    The stove must be equipped with a gas control system that stops the gas supply if the flame in the burner goes out.

    You can find out more about dates and times of gas equipment inspections on the official website of Mosgaz and with the help of a special telegram bot companies. In addition, residents of the capital can subscribe to notifications about an upcoming inspection and then evaluate the specialist’s work.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: A production complex will appear in Yuzhnoye Butovo as part of a large-scale investment project

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    The city has leased a plot of land to an investor at a preferential rate of one ruble per year for the construction of an industrial complex in the Yuzhnoye Butovo district. The industrial facility will be built as part of a large-scale investment project (MaIP). This was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Urban Development Policy and Construction Vladimir Efimov.

    “Large-scale investment projects allow us to develop infrastructure and create jobs in different areas of the capital. In 2024, a record amount of land was allocated for the implementation of the MaIP — more than 360 hectares. Of these, over 177 are for the construction of industrial facilities. As part of one of the large-scale investment projects, a food equipment manufacturing plant with an area of 10.4 thousand square meters will be built on Bartenevskaya Street. The investor will invest 0.9 billion rubles in the implementation of this project,” said Vladimir Efimov.

    The investor will also be provided with a benefit under the program to stimulate the creation of employment opportunities.

    “By order of Sergei Sobyanin, more than 20 measures to support industry are being implemented in the city. Investors can combine these measures and receive the greatest economic effect from the project. Thus, a production complex for the production of food equipment will appear in Yuzhnoye Butovo thanks to two support measures at once – assigning the status of a large-scale investment project and participation in the program to stimulate the creation of employment opportunities. As a result, 240 jobs will be created at the enterprise,” said the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry

    Maxim Liksutov.

    Since 2022, by decision of the Mayor of Moscow, the city provides land at a preferential rate of one ruble per year for the development of production. This helps attract investment to the capital’s economy and create jobs.

    According to the Minister of the Moscow Government, head of the capital’s Department of City Property Maxim Gaman, the lease agreement for the 0.77 hectare plot was concluded for five years. During this time, the investor must complete the construction of the production complex. The land is provided at a preferential rate of one ruble per year, which will be valid for the entire term.

    A large-scale investment project is a special status that can be obtained by objects whose creation is aimed at developing the capital’s infrastructure. These are, for example, production, sports and business complexes, innovation centers, social institutions. For their construction, the city provides land plots for lease without bidding.

    Previously Sergei Sobyanin said, that since 2022 Moscow has provided entrepreneurs with about 700 hectares of land without bidding for the implementation of large-scale investment projects.

    On February 3, the Polytechnic University was visited by Metropolitan of Pskov and Porkhov, Abbot of the Holy Dormition Pskov-Pechersky Monastery Matfey (Kopylov). The visit was part of the events in honor of the 125th anniversary of the Polytechnic University. The guest got acquainted with the history of the university and its current activities, and discussed opportunities for cooperation.

    The tour of the university began with the Main Academic Building, where Metropolitan Matfey of Pskov and Porkhov got acquainted with the gallery of outstanding polytechnic scientists. In the SPbPU History Museum, its director Valery Klimov spoke about the most important events in the history of the Polytechnic, presented interesting facts and showed key exhibits. In the Technopolis Polytechnic research building, the university’s scientific secretary Dmitry Karpov demonstrated a model of the SPbPU campus.

    During the visit, the bishop met with the rector of SPbPU Andrey Rudskoy. The meeting was also attended by the vice-rector for youth policy and communication technologies Maxim Pasholikov and a member of the initiative group to save the church in Belskoye Ustye Valery Silin.

    The Church of the Ascension of the Lord is located in the village of Belskoye Ustye in the Porkhov District, where the grave of Prince Andrei Gagarin, an outstanding Russian scientist and engineer, the first director of the Polytechnic University, is also located. The 18th-century church is the largest patrimonial church in the Pskov land, which has no analogues in the architectural heritage of the region. It is an integral part of the cultural and historical complex, which includes the estate of Prince A. G. Gagarin in Kholomki, the main building of which was restored by the Polytechnic University in 2013, as well as the outskirts of Porkhov with their unique fortresses, churches and temples.

    The Church of the Ascension of the Lord is one of the pearls of the Pskov region for tourists, especially for pilgrims. It is important to develop tourist routes around Pskov. Together we contribute to the great cause of the revival of Russian history, Andrey Rudskoy emphasized.

    The meeting participants considered possible areas of cooperation in the reconstruction of the church, ways of attracting benefactors, organizing a board of trustees for the implementation of the project, as well as the possibility of opening a Sunday school at the church.

    The first Church of the Ascension of the Lord was built in 1796 with funds from Colonel Artemon Kozhin in his estate Belskoye Ustye in Porkhov district. In the early 1860s, Artemon Osipovich’s son, Pyotr, decided to build a new church, as the old one had fallen into disrepair. The new building was erected according to the design of the St. Petersburg architect Shestakov in the style of early classicism with elements of baroque. In October 1898, a church-parish trusteeship was founded, and in November 1887, a church-parish school began operating.

    A. G. Gagarin often visited the church, and after his death on December 22, 1921, he was buried in this church and buried in the local cemetery. In 1921-1922, a colony of the House of Arts was opened in the estate of Prince Gagarin. Among its participants were famous writers and artists K. I. Chukovsky, E. I. Zamyatin, M. L. Lozinsky, M. L. Slonimsky, M. M. Zoshchenko, V. F. Khodasevich, O. E. Mandelstam and others. All of them regularly visited the Church of the Ascension of the Lord. In 1921, the colony held a memorial service for Alexander Blok there. In the 1960s, the church was closed due to its emergency condition.

    In 2014, an initiative group was created, which included the heads of SPbPU, representatives of the Pskov Region Committee on Culture, Pskov State University, the administration of the Porkhov District, and the St. Petersburg branch of the All-Russian public movement “Orthodox Russia”. Since 2017, active work has been underway to restore and rebuild the church.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Marat Khusnullin: More than 2 thousand km of utility networks have been updated under a program with the participation of the federal budget since 2023

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Government of the Russian Federation – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    In 2023, a program to modernize public utilities infrastructure with support from the federal budget was launched. Under it, over 2,000 utility networks were built and modernized in Russian regions, Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin reported.

    “One of the key areas of work of the Russian construction complex in the coming years is the modernization of the public utility infrastructure. This is an extremely important area that directly affects the comfort, mood and well-being of our citizens. At the same time, housing and communal services are one of the most sensitive industries, requiring a lot of attention and work. On the instructions of the President, by 2030, Russia needs to improve the quality of public utilities for 20 million citizens. To achieve this goal, within the framework of the national project “Infrastructure for Life”, we will actively engage in the modernization of the industry. At the same time, there are already certain results. Under the program, with the involvement of the federal budget, over 1.1 thousand events in the public utility sector have been implemented in two years. Since 2023, major repairs, construction and reconstruction of more than 2 thousand km of public utility networks, as well as industrial facilities, including boiler houses, water intake, wastewater treatment facilities have been carried out,” said Marat Khusnullin.

    According to the Deputy Prime Minister, the largest volume of work was carried out by Smolensk Region, where 209.2 km of networks were updated and 6 facilities were put into operation, Sverdlovsk (189.3 km), Chelyabinsk (137.8 km and two facilities) Regions, the Republics of Tatarstan (128 km) and Bashkortostan (115 km).

    “Renovation of housing and communal services is extremely important for improving the quality of life of people, ensuring the safety and energy efficiency of residential buildings. It is important to increase the pace of this work. In 2024 alone, 704 events were implemented under the program with the participation of support from the federal budget, including the construction and modernization of 1.5 thousand km of networks and the commissioning of 11 industrial facilities,” said Minister of Construction and Housing and Communal Services Irek Faizullin.

    Ilshat Shagiakhmetov, CEO of the Territorial Development Fund, the operator of this program, reported that the modernization of the communal infrastructure in the country will be based on data from the automated information system (AIS) of the FRT.

    “It is impossible to improve what cannot be measured. Therefore, the first thing is accounting. It is necessary to understand where and what specific problems need to be solved as a matter of priority. Therefore, in the AIS FRT, we have formed a database of all key elements of the public utility infrastructure. It includes 240 thousand objects, about 1 million km of utility networks and about 12 thousand resource-supplying organizations. Based on this data, together with the Ministry of Construction and the regions, we are preparing a comprehensive plan for the modernization of the public utility infrastructure. We will make every effort to successfully achieve the goals of the national project “Infrastructure for Life”, – noted Ilshat Shagiakhmetov.

    The program for the modernization of public utilities infrastructure is being implemented within the framework of Government Resolution of December 8, 2022 No. 2253Under this mechanism, regions receive subsidies for the renovation of public utility facilities and networks.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: From Scanning to Digital Twin: SUM Research on 3D Modeling in Action

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: State University of Management – Official website of the State –

    Employees of the Reverse Engineering Laboratory of the State University of Management conducted research on the issues of 3D modeling.

    The authors of the article “The Impact of 3D Scanning Data Processing Methods on the Quality of Final Solid 3D Models” are young scientists from the State University of Management: – Leading Researcher (Head of the Laboratory), Candidate of Technical Sciences, Associate Professor Vladimir Filatov; – Researcher, Candidate of Technical Sciences, Associate Professor Ilya Nefelov; – Specialist, Postgraduate Student Denis Yudin.

    “As is known, with the help of 3D scanners, it is possible to scan the surfaces of any physical objects and make their virtual 3D models – digital twins,” says Vladimir Filatov. “This model can then be changed, and a new product can be printed or manufactured on machines, and it will take significantly less time compared to doing it from scratch. Such scanning is the first stage of reverse engineering.”

    Some characteristics of a real object may prevent the correct transfer of its parameters to digital space. It may be transparent, glossy, mirror-like, have different textures or colors, have deep pockets (depressions) where light hardly penetrates or is reflected from surfaces inside it. For more accurate scanning, matting is used – the application of single-color anti-glare sprays that eliminate the properties of objects that are inconvenient for scanning.

    Scientists from the State University of Management studied the deviations of the sizes of the obtained 3D model of the scanned object from its sizes measured in reality, and the influence of various sprays on this error. The studies showed how accurately the obtained 3D model coincides with the real object after scanning.

    The authors reviewed methods for processing 3D scanning data, including primary processing, filling in missing surfaces, smoothing, splitting into primitives, and measurements in a virtual environment. Their impact on the quality of final solid-state electronic 3D models of scanned objects was assessed. Measurements of final length measures were performed in a virtual environment with subsequent analysis of the data obtained.

    In the future, research will be aimed at studying algorithms and methods for processing the surfaces of scanned objects in order to improve the quality of digital twins of agricultural machinery.

    The study can be read about in an article published in the November 2024 issue of the Standards and Quality journal.
