Scientific basis for the development of structural and technological devices made of modern domestic materials to ensure the functional reliability and safe operation of surface water intakes

The article provides a classification list of a large number of heuristic techniques for solving various problems of designing a class of hydraulic structures, taking into account the conditions of functional operation of soft floating structures (MNCs) as water intake structures. The concept of rational use of surface water resources provides for an ecosystem approach that allows us to consider a water body together with the catchment area of the hydrographic river network, the surface layers of the atmosphere above it, measures taken to select the calculated water flow rate (Q m3/s), taking into account the consideration of environmental safety in the zones of influence of water intake - as a single system in as a whole. Providing EC in VTK puts forward a number of main tasks to improve existing structural and technological devices and create new ones using modern domestic materials, for example, high-strength synthetic fabric materials. When creating environmentally acceptable design solutions to provide EC in the zones of influence of VTK, one of the most promising areas at present is the methodological basis for the synthesis of soft-coated structures in the composition of VTK. The reliable functioning of both a separate structural element and the structure as a whole should be conditioned by the possibility of periodic updating of its constituent structural elements
