  An important component of the normal functioning of any industry is the provision of
  a quality regulatory and legal framework. There are a number of problems in this area,
  one of that is the absence of a single reference terminological standard or thesaurus
  covering the entire list of terms, definitions and their interpretations, somehow used in
  the fuel and energy complex. The lack of unity of definitions and terms allows for their
  multivariate interpretation.
  We consider it is particularly important in case of accounting for statistical
  indicators, the development of fuel and energy balances and the preparation of crosssectoral
  documentation. This conceptual diversity is due to the fact that the regulatory
  framework was developed in different time periods and for solving various problems.
  Even in the current legal and regulatory framework of the fuel and energy complex,
  one can find documents in which different terms are used to refer to the same concepts,
  and vice versa, the same terms are used to designate essentially different processes,
  phenomena, objects and types of fuel and power resources.

  We have considered issues related to the safety of rail transport in the new economic
  conditions for servicing automation and telemechanics devices. First, issues related
  to the safety of railway transport in the context of the increasing role of automation
  and remote control devices.
  We assessed the risks of hazardous and emergency situations associated with
  external factors of exposure and proposed ways to eliminate the causes of device
  malfunctions and the emergency situations risk reduce.
  The reason for the violation of the operating mode of the automatic locomotive
  signaling requires serious statistical measurements at the highest metrological level, but
  at present they are not carried out. The complexity of the solution lies in the different
  subordination of various transport structures responsible for individual sections of the
  work of the same automatic locomotive signaling system, we consider. Therefore, the
  causes of failures are not well understood and understood.
  An assessment of the risks of hazardous and emergency situations associated with
  external factors of impact is given. The ways of searching and eliminating the causes of
  device failures and reducing the risks of occurrence of contingencies.

  Perspectives and Opportunities of Gas Energy

  Authors: Dr. V.A. Grushnikov, Senior Researcher, All-Russian Institute for Scientific and Technical Information of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia, mach04@ viniti.ru
  

  Against the background of negative forecasts of exhaustion of natural resources
  of energy contained in the depths of the Earth, the results of the latest research
  developments in the field of exploration, assessment and efficiency of various fuel
  sources of the global energy complex are clearly a positive potential. In this analysis,
  you can not do without my competent commentary.
  I considered some innovative technologies for the extraction of complex types
  of hydrocarbons (heavy and high-sulfur oil) and oil surrogates (bitumens, oil sands).
  I believe that the results of research developments in the field of exploration, evaluation
  and effectiveness of the use of non-traditional types of fuel sources, in particular
  methane hydrates, have a positive potential. Currently, the agenda is not the question
  of what — whether traditional alternative — energy sources are hydrogen and methane
  hydrate, as long as they are and are effectively used.
  The wide spread of innovative fuel and energy technologies define legislative
  measures to prevent global warming. It is these measures that prevent the use of nonconforming
  to future requirements of vehicles that use energy-intensive, polluting
  types of fuel and energy resources.
  Determining the wide distribution of innovative fuel and energy technologies are
  legislative measures to prevent global warming, putting a barrier to the use of vehicles
  that do not meet the promising requirements of energy-intensive, polluting the
  environment types of fuel and energy resources.

  Сomplex Recycling Problems of Secondary Building Resources

  Authors: Dr. G.G. Lunev, Deputy General Director for Economics and Development, LLC Recycled Materials, Corresponding Member, Scientific Secretary of the Scientific Department of Biological, Environmental and Technological Problems of Sustainable Development (NO BETPUR), AES A.M. Prokhorov, Moscow, Russia, spezstr@yandex.ru 

  Prof. Dr. Yu.M. Prokhotskiy, Head, Scientific Department of Biological, Environmental and Technological Problems of Sustainable Development (NO BETPUR), Member of the Presidium of AES A.M. Prokhorov, Moscow, Russia, yum33@mail.ru
  

  At present, the strategic approach is to recognize the environmental priority in the
  development of world industrial production. We had deals with the main problems
  of complex processing and use of secondary building resources (SBR), on the basis
  of a methodological approach, consisting in considering them as a separate type
  of secondary material resources, which differ in their heterogeneous composition,
  methods of formation, cycle of processing and the possibility of further use.
  Process of formation and processing of SBR, is a single life cycle of several
  interrelated stages, we are believe. In this regard, the management of the SBR,
  processing system should be started not at the stage of formation and collection, but at
  all stages, starting from the decision on the reconstruction of the facility, to the stage
  of waste storage at landfills.
  We believe that when designing new facilities, it is necessary to consider in advance
  the issues of environmental safety during its dismantling, the technologies and methods
  for the production of construction and dismantling works, as well as the economic
  efficiency of further processing and use of HRV in the field of material and technical
  production.

  Health-saving Indicators List Formation of the Life Quality Population

  Authors: Dr. А.N. Shmeleva, Leading Researcher, V.A. Trapeznikov Institute of Control Sciences, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia, schmelevaanna@mail.ru
  

  I am talking about the lack of a methodological tool for assessing the quality
  of the population life on the basis of health-saving indicators in Russia. According
  the Russian scientists research, taking into account the methodology of the Rating of the
  Regions of the Russian Federation for the quality of life and foreign programs, proposed
  a detailed list of indicators, which include, among the other things, performance
  indicators of executive authorities subjects of the Russian Federation, as well as local
  self-government. The analysis of the relevant regulatory and legal acts showed the lack
  of indicators reflecting the quality of the population life related to health. My further
  research will be directed to the formation of a quality management system based
  on health-related indicators and the corresponding model of system management
  on the principles of the process approach.

  Examined of solving personnel problems, identified in the Strategy for ensuring
  the uniformity of measurements in the Russian Federation until 2025. Training is
  an important part of management in the metrology. It expedient to train metrologists
  in state scientific metrology centers. This will ensure connection with modern trends
  in the development of modern metrology, such as traceability, measurement uncertainty,
  key comparisons and databases for measuring and calibration capabilities of metrology
  institutes, metrological studies in medicine and biology, digital metrology, intelligent
  measurement tools. Training of staff in the educational center will also contribute
  to the development of a quality management system in VNIIM and other metrological
  organizations of the country.

  The transfer of a unit does not end with the calibration of measuring instruments, but
  is transmitted further from measuring instruments to measurements carried out during
  tests, it’s known. In this case, the measuring instrument acts as a kind of reference
  in relation to the measurement carried out for the tests.
  We considered a general approach to calculating the uncertainty of the results
  of calibration of hardness testers, gave practical examples of calculations of the
  uncertainty of the results of the calibration of working standards and hardness testers.
  As it turned out, a full account of the actual values of the metrological characteristics
  of the standards, ensuring the traceability of hardness testers practically does not
  affect the estimate of the uncertainty of the results of their calibration. When
  estimating the uncertainty of the results of calibration of hardness testers, one can
  use the maximum values of the range of standard measures of hardness given in table
  3 GOST 9031–75.
