Advisor: Oleg Martynov, PhD
Project: Audio signal processing
Objective: To obtain and modify the spectral characteristics of audio signals, then regenerate the signals based on the changed spectral characteristics with good quality
Description:
Wrote computer programs to obtain spectral characteristics of audio signals, change the characteristics using the time discretization shift method and wavelet transformation, and then regenerate the signals based on the converted spectral characteristics
Presented the project results at KSTA Student Conferences in 2010 and 2011 and was awarded 2nd and 1st places, respectively
Contributed to a conference publication as the first author to share the project results at the International Scientific - Practical Conference “Borders of Contemporary Science” in Krasnodar (2013)

Advisor: Svetlana Kozlova, PhD & Vladimir Tretyakov, PhD
Project: Parallel shaft speed reducer units
Objective: To identify the most favorable design characteristics of parallel shaft speed reducer units with respect to their consumer properties
Description:
For the given parallel shaft speed reducer units, defined their general construction characteristics (e.g., the number of shafts and their arrangement), gear parameters (e.g., tooth thickness, working depth, pitch diameter), and consumer properties (e.g., gear ratio, torque, weight)
Extended the collected data using publicly available information
Explored the impact of the recorded parameters on the units' consumer properties and identified the most favorable unit design characteristics
Presented the work at KSTA Student Conference in 2011 and was awarded 1st place

Project: Free-wheel inertial gear mechanisms
Objective: To identify parameters of free-wheel inertial gear mechanisms providing sufficiently low bending stress in their plates
Description:
Collected published data on free-wheel inertial gear mechanisms' parameters (e.g., the number of plates, their width, thickness, material). Calculated bending stresses in the plates and identified parameters providing longest plate durability
Presented the work at KSTA Student Conference in 2011

Advisor: Norayr Badalyan, PhD
Project: Problems of electricity supply in megacities
Objective: To learn about the problems of electricity supply in megacities and analyze the undergoing or proposed mitigation projects
Description:
Studied problems of electricity supply in megacities including the growing electricity demand, power outages, and the environmental impacts of electricity generation and transmission
Studied solutions to different electricity supply issues including the growth of existing electric grids, the use of combined heat and power systems, and the modernization of electricity delivery
Used publicly available data to design case studies of electricity supply in a city where new transmission lines, substations, or electricity storage were added to the existing system. Explored advantages and disadvantages of the interventions
Presented the work at KSTA Student Conference in 2011 and was awarded 1st place
Descriptive Geometry Department
(December 2010 - April 2011)
Advisor: Elvira Alekseeva, PhD
Project: Transformation of orthogonal projections of planes intersecting solids
Objective: To identify the most beneficial method of transforming orthogonal projections
Description:
Explored different ways of transforming orthogonal projections of planes intersecting cylinder, cone, sphere, and torus
Demonstrated that the use of a projection plane replacement method was the most beneficial way of transforming orthogonal projections as it enabled to obtain the true shapes of the sections
Presented the work at KSTA Student Conference in 2011 and was awarded 1st place
