Three-dimensional numerical model of solidification with motion of the liquid phase
The paper presents numerical modeling of solidification process with convective motion of the liquid phase, generated both in the liquid and mushy zones. The transition region between the areas filled with liquid and sol...
Role of the preliminary heat treatment in anisothermic eutectoid change of the cast iron
Preliminary heat treatment, preceding continuous cooling of the iron casting, assumed in the research, complies with the applied in prac-tice single normalization, double normalization or normalization with slow cooling....
Calorimetric examination of mixtures for modification of nickel and cobalt superalloys

Fatigue strength of MAR-M509 alloy with structure refined by rapid crystallization
This study presents test results of high-cycle (N>2⋅107) fatigue bending strength of MAR-M-509 cobalt alloy samples, as cast and after surface refining with a concentrated stream of heat. Tests were conducted on samples...
The influence of amperage of electric arc on microhardness in the area single and overlapping remeltings of HS 6-5-2 steel
The present thesis depicts the microhardness of HV0,065 surface layer of high speed steel HS6-5-2 remelted with the electric arc. There were different surface layer variants of remelting used – the amperage was changed f...
