The purpose of the study is to improve the professional competence of students in the field of modeling technological processes in the oil and gas industry and performing strength calculations of the oil and gas equipment operation based on mathematical software (MathCAD). The research
relies on the analysis of scientific and educational literature, generalization of the experience of specialized universities, comparative analysis of teaching methods used in the area, as well as a pedagogical experiment, which confirmed the effectiveness of the results achieved. The study
resulted in the development of specialized courses (MathCad-based modeling of the technological equipment operation and Modeling of technological processes of the transportation of oil and gas products) based on the formulated mathematical problems for the MathCAD system, which effectively
improved the professional competence of students in the field of modeling oil and gas production processes based on computer mathematics. The acquired competences can further contribute to the improvement of academic performance and more effective training of engineering students. The specialized
courses and fundamental approaches to the use of mathematical software to facilitate the solution of engineering problems can be widely implemented in the learning process to train specialists in the oil and gas industry and related sectors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
