An application of advanced information technology in foundry engineering
Journal Title: Archiwum Odlewnictwa - Year 2010, Vol 10, Issue 2
Abstract
The main goal of our lately researches bas been to prove that application of technological knowledge can be supported by artificial intelligence tools and internet techniques. Computer aided systems for technological process design presented in literature have a priori defined, fixed structure. The aim of our work was to develop an open system that guarantees easy knowledge changing and extending. We use the original method elaborated in University of Science and Technology called IwQ (Inference with Queries) as an inference engine for business and technological rules management. We also consider storage of data in relational database as a tool for ontology development. Application of metamodel in predefining information structure enabled flexible recording of the significantly differing information resources.

The study presents the results of tribological tests made on Fe-C-V and Fe-C-V-Si alloys undergoing volume solidification and containing carbon in a range of 1,43-2,58%, vanadium in a range of 5,34-14,77%, and silicon in...
Bell founding – the past and the present
This paper outlines the history of bell founding. The exceptional character of bells, which are products of supracultural importance, was stressed. The complexity of the bell manufacturing process and a unique approach t...
Thin wall ductile and austempered iron castings
It has been shown that it is possible to produce thin wall castings made of ductile iron with wall thickness in the range of 1.2 to 2.9 mm (without chills, cold laps and misruns). Thin wall ductile iron castings can be l...
