Heading:PROBLEMS AND OPINIONS

Unmanned aerial vehicles – cost-effective solution to transport problems

Annotation. In recent years, unmanned aerial vehicles have become widespread all over the world. In the article their capabilities, comparative advantages, limitations, economic efficiency, national characteristics and unsolved problems are considered.

Key word. Unmanned aerial vehicles, technical characteristics, commercial operation, cargo transportation.

On the construction of logistics infrastructure in the territory of the Russian Federation

Annotation. The article proposed a methodological approach to the formation of the logistics infrastructure within a Russian Federation's region. The approach includes two stages. At the initial stage, districts and region's cities are determined where it is advisable to locate key objects of the logistics infrastructure. At the second stage, they are geo-referenced on the ground based on the mathematical models developed by the author.

The main results of optimization of the composition of the garbage trucks fleet to transport municipal solid waste

Annotation. The article presents the main results of the first stage of choosing a garbage truck for the adopted system of solid waste management (TBO) by load capacity class.

Analysis of the logistics concept development in the historical aspect: from the immanent knowledge to the ecological paradigm

Annotation. The article deals with the background and sequence of formation of fundamental paradigms of logistics, implementing the classical approach to logistics as a theoretical science. The main provisions of the paradigm of environmental responsibility of the participants of the logistics process from the sources of material flow to the collection and processing of residual streams of industrial and municipal solid waste are formulated.

Key words. Logistics, paradigm logistics, concept of logistics, logistics system.

The overview of modeling methods and tools to study the logistic processes of troops (forces) maintenance supply

Annotation. The development of the technological aspect of system modeling is provided by both general and multivariate, complex studies of difficult systems, which, of course, are related to the processes of material and technical support of troops (forces). The task of mathematical modeling of logistics processes on the basis of combined approaches is to ensure the activities of military officials at various levels. This article briefly discusses the need to use analytic-simulation models for researching processes of material and technical supply of troops (forces).

The economic rationale for logistics solutions

Annotation. The article deals with the methodological approach to the study of the economic justification of the planning and operation of logistics systems, offers some solutions.

Key word. Logistics systems, economic justification, mathematical modeling, solutions.

Evaluation of the impact of logistics infrastructure on the socio-economic indicators of the Astrakhan region

In this article the depencies between social-economic parameters of Astrakhan region and its logistic infrastructure is described. The logistic infrastructure's elements which makes a biggest impact on their are determined. For each element the standard ratios are calculated. It allow to count the impact of each element in social-economic parameters. It is shown, that increasing of parameters of main part of logistic infrastructure is going toward maximal changes of dependent variables.

Optimization of the fleet of specialized vehicles to transport solid wastes

The article describes the parameters of evaluating the effectiveness of the use of garbage trucks on the example of the functioning of the waste management system in St. Petersburg. The method of selection of garbage trucks in the organization of rational interaction of processes in the waste management system is proposed.

Key words. Waste management system, garbage truck, vehicle efficiency, means and methods of solid waste transportation.

At the junction of two unions: logistics of Belarus and Lithuania

The analysis of the logistics efficiency of Belarus and Lithuania was carried out on the basis of the World Bank LPI index. An assessment of the state and level of development of logistics systems of neighboring countries is given. The main areas of cooperation in logistics are highlighted. Identified individual problems in the interaction of countries in this area and identified ways to solve them.

Key words. Logistics, Belarus, Lithuania, transport infrastructure, LPI index, container train «Viking», sea transportation, port of Klaipeda.

EEU – results and vectors of cooperation

The Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) is a new large interstate formation in the world, whose multi-vector development will ensure the stable development of not only the countries of the Union members, but also many of its allies and partners in both the East and the West.
