Abstract
The aim of this paper is manufacturing of turbocharger engine jet blades made of nickel superalloys. Processes for producing molds and casting realized in a production line are special processes. It means that the results are known only after inspection of the finished product. There is lack of the methods and techniques of effective and efficient quality control of the work in stock, above all molds. Therefore, the unknown is the state ceramic mold for the precision casting, which resulting in risk of referral to a defective mold of the casting process and thus give the product does not comply, is eliminated in the final inspection.
One method of reducing this risk is particularly thorough monitoring of all parameters of each process and keeping them in the desired operating point. Operating point is a set of parameters of processes. Such monitoring is possible with the commitment to the methods and techniques to automatically, without human intervention, data collection and processing methods appropriate for use in operational control.
The paper presents results of research on the attitude to the problem of a special process. This change is the introduction to the process efficient and effective form of quality control tools in the course of its preparation. In this case, the method of photogrammetry, thermal imaging and computed tomography were used.
With the infrared camera will be possible to determine the temperature field, the disorder in relation to the pattern indicates the type of defect. Computed tomography and will be used to develop patterns of correlated defects associated with thermal imagers. Photogrammetry is the use of a model set of quality control (comparison of the actual state of the model *.CAD). It also allows the designation of a wall thickness of the mold.
Analysis of the Heating of Steel Wires During High Speed Multipass Drawing Process/ Analiza Nagrzewania Się Drutów Stalowych W Procesie Ciągnienia Wielostopniowego Z Dużymi Prędkosciami
Authors: Suliga M. 
Published: February 2015

Abstract
The analysis of the heating of the wire including theoretical studies showed that in the multistage drawing process a increase drawing speed causes intense heating of a thin surface layer of the wire to a temperature exceeding 1100°C, which should be explained by the accumulation of heat due to friction at the interface between wire and die. It has been shown that with increasing of drawing speed the heated surface layer thickness measured at the exit of the wire from the dies is reduced significantly and at drawing speed of 25 m/s is equal to about 68 μm. The decrease in the thickness of this layer can be explained by a shorter time of heat transfer to the wire, which causes additional heat accumulation in the surface layer. Thus fivefold increase in drawing speed caused an approximately 110% increase in the temperature in the surface layer of the wire. Experimental studies have shown that the increase of drawing speed of 5 to 25 m/s will increase the temperature of the wire after coiled on the spool more than 400%.

Published: February 2015

Abstract
Alloys based on the Fe3Al intermetallic phase belong to a new generation of metallic materials intended for operation at higher temperatures and having properties something between those of metals and ceramic materials. They are characterised by relatively high oxidation resistance, high corrosion resistance, high-temperature creep resistance, high electrical resistivity, high abrasion resistance as well as resistance to erosion and cavitation. Although the material costs of these alloys are relatively low, they belong to materials which are very difficult to join by means of welding methods. For this reason, joining such materials remains an important and current research and technological problem. One of the methods used for joining such materials is brazing. This work shows the results of technological tests concerned with vacuum brazing an alloy based on the Fe3Al (Fe86Al14) phase using silver (Ag72Cu28) and copper-nickel (Cu90Ni10, Cu95Ni5) filler metals as well as presents the results of tests on the mechanical and structural properties of obtained joints.

Abstract
The main aim of this work was to study the effect of time and method of Al, SiC powders mixing on the microstructure and mechanical properties of composites. Moreover, the influence of applicating direct extrusion with a reversibly rotating die on the homogeneity of the composites was examined. Microstructure observations with the use of an optical microscope and scanning electron microscope were applied. A quantitative analysis of composite microstructure was conducted. The density (helium pycnometer method), Vickers hardness and the Young’s Modulus of the composites were also determined. The results show that the homogeneity of Al/SiC composites rises with an increase of mixing time. However, better results were obtained by application of high energy ball milling process.

Abstract
The effects of processing parameters on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Fe-Mn-Cr- Mo-C PM steels are described. Pre-alloyed Astaloy CrM and Astaloy CrL, low-carbon ferromanganese and graphite powders were used as the starting materials. After pressing in rigid die, the compacts were conventionally and high temperature sintered at 1120 and 1250°C, respectively. Sintering was carried out for 60 minutes in atmospheres with different H2/N2 ratios. Cooling rate from sintering temperature was 65°C min-1 (convective cooling). The specimens were subsequently tempered at 200°C for 60 minutes in air. All specimens were tested for tensile strength (UTS), elongation (A), offset yield strength (R0:2), transverse rupture strength (TRS), impact toughness and apparent surface hardness (HV 30). After mechanical tests the microstructure of Fe-Mn-Cr-Mo-C PM steels was studied by optical microscopy. These investigations have shown that, by sintering in inexpensive and safe nitrogen-rich atmospheres, it is possible to achieve mechanical properties similar to those of specimens sintered in pure hydrogen and hydrogen-rich atmospheres.

Abstract
The object of the study was the evaluation of the effect of production parameters on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Cr and Cr-Mo PM steels. The steels were processed from commercial Höganäs pre-alloyed powders: Astaloy CrA, Astaloy CrL and Astaloy CrM with carbon, added in the form of grade C-UF graphite powder in amounts of 0.4 and 0.8 wt. %. Following Turbula mixing for 30 minutes, green compacts were single pressed at 660 MPa according to PN-EN ISO 2740 standard. Sintering was carried out in a laboratory horizontal furnace at 1120°C and 1250°C for 60 minutes in a 5%-95% hydrogen-nitrogen atmosphere. After sintering, the samples were tempered at 200°C for 60 minutes in air. Mechanical tests indicate that the steel based on Astaloy CrA pre-alloyed powder could be an alternative material to steels based on Astaloy CrM. Steels sintered at the higher temperature revealed better mechanical properties.

Abstract
The discussion of the possibility of application of the GPI (gas pressure infiltration) process to the manufacturing of composites based on selected aluminium alloys reinforced with carbon fibres coated with nickel protective layer, as well as the determination of selected properties of materials obtained using this technique, is presented in the article. The composites reinforced unidirectionally (UD) were produced, the suitable volume fraction of fibres was determined and the proper forming parameters were established. Basing on the obtained results, with application of the same components, the composites reinforced three-directionally (3D) were subjected to infiltration. The preforms were designed and prepared using plaiting and joining methods. The GPI process parameters were verified for the assumed fibre arrangement. Thermal expansion of matrix alloys and composites obtained with application of most favourable parameters was determined and the influence of fibre arrangement and chemical composition of the matrix on the obtained results was analysed. The comparative abrasion tests with application of different velocities were performed for the selected alloy and the composite reinforced unidirectionally. In order to evaluate the changes taking place in the matrix during infiltration, the analysis of chemical composition of composites was performed for materials reinforced unidirectionally, as an example. The correctness of distribution of fibres in the composite matrix was also evaluated by means of microstructure observation as well as non-destructive testing with application of computed tomography technique. The results obtained during the investigations provide information concerning suitability and limitations of the GPI method to the manufacturing of light structural parts from the proposed components.

Abstract
Issues of viscosity and rheological properties of liquid ferrous solutions are important from the perspective of modelling, along with the control of actual production processes related to the manufacturing of metals, including iron and steel. Conducted analysis within subject literature indicates that there are many theoretical considerations concerning the effects of viscosity of liquid metal solutions. The objective of this study was to perform rheological measurements of liquid ferrous solutions, the results of which may be used as the basis for developing viscosity models as a function of chemical composition, temperature, and a selected rheological parameter. The study contains the results of rheological tests of ferrous solutions - six chemical compositions with a carbon content from 0.15 to 0.39% and which were tested with applied shear rates from 40 to 180 s-1. The obtained values of dynamic viscosity coefficient are within the range of 0.002 - 0.018 Pa s.

Abstract
Explosive welding is an effective method of joining of various metals and alloys. However, when the materials with very different strength and thermo-physical properties are welded or thin-layer cladding is performed, the difficulties occur which call for extra investigations. In the present paper, with the couples of steel / carbide composite and copper / hardened steel used as examples, under study were the peculiarities of bonding formation by the explosive welding of metals with highly differing properties. The experiments were carried out with emulsion explosive containing hollow micro-spheres and detonating in thin layers with the low (2 - 3 km/s) detonation velocity. Obtained results show that the emulsion explosives enable to extend the explosion welding potentiality.

Abstract
In the article we analyzed shape, local mechanical properties, chemical and phase composition of Magnesium/Aluminium cladded material prepared by explosion welding. In particular we focus our investigation on Mg/Al interface and areas close to the joint. Hardness of the joined materials measured far from their interface is similar for both materials, however in the region of interface the hardness drops down by 40%. Phase transformations in the interface was examined by a hard X-ray micro-diffraction experiment performed at beamline P07 at PETRA III at the energy of 99 keV which helped us identify in Al: fcc-Al, Al2Cu tetragonal and Al7Cu2Fe tetragonal and in Mg: hcp-Mg, Mg2Si cubic phases. In the interface we haven’t observed any new intermetallics, but computation of lattice parameters and profiles of Al and Mg peaks proved an existence of solid solution with different gradient of chemical composition.

Abstract
The study of detonation-like mode of laser induced damage propagation was considered. Velocity of this propagation is two orders of magnitude faster than known published data on burning fiber glass. The condition of optical fiber and enough long laser pulse let us obtain laser induced damage propagation passing near hundred own core diameters during pulse. The using as target the core of silica-based optical fiber has some diagnostic advantages. It allows spatially splits “start” and “stop” points and to supply the same form of energy deposition in every cross section of optical fiber. Tested regime demonstrates near constant velocities during 250 ns in the range of laser intensity 2-4.5 GW/cm2.

Abstract
Welds of thick plates (304 SS) clad with Ti of commercial purity in as-received state and also after subsequent heat treatment and/or after hydrogen charging were investigated. Fatigue tests were carried out at amplitude of 20 Hz and in case of bimetal without hydrogen charging also at amplitude of 40 Hz. After heat treatment, charged welds showed higher threshold level than the welds without heat treatment. Energy dispersed analyses (EDA) of fracture surfaces showed that failure predominantly occurred in joint. Hydrogen induced cracking (HIC) response of bimetal samples demonstrated favourable results both after welding and after subsequent heat treatment. Short and thin cracks were observed, exclusively located in mixed zone, where approx. 16-20 at. % of Ti using EDX (energy dispersed analyser) was revealed. By application of monochromatic synchrotron radiation Ti-α , Fe-fcc, Fe-bcc and intermetallic phase Fe2Ti were detected.

Published: February 2015

Abstract
The paper describes the application of an Yb:YAG disk laser with a maximum output of 3.3 kW for the butt welding of armor steel plates ARMOX 500T 3.6 mm thick. The influence of laser welding parameters such as laser power beam, welding speed, focal point position on weld quality and mechanical properties of joints was studied. A proper selection of disk laser welding parameters provides non-porous and cracks free fully-penetrated welds with the aspect ratio up to 6.4. There was approx. 40% reduction in the hardness of heat affected zone (HAZ) in comparison to hardness of the base material (BM). The hardness values at the weld metal and the BM were similar. The joints exhibited about 15% lower ultimate tensile strength when compared with that of the BM. Charpy absorbed energy of the joints was approx. 30% lower than that of the BM.

Abstract
The paper presents the results of the wear tests of alloyed austempered ductile iron performed on a specially designed test rig simulating real operating conditions for chain wheels which were selected for testing due to their complex rolling and sliding form of contact between elements. The chain wheels subjected to tests were operated with the use of loose quartz abrasive and without it. The studies involved the determination of strength and plastic properties, hardness distributions, microstructure and linear wear of the ADI in question considered as a function of the austempering temperature. Based on the results obtained, the following was found: phase transition of austempered ductile iron can take place for combinations typical of industrial applications, a non-linear increase in the wear as a function of the austempering temperature occurs, an increase in the hardness of all the analysed types of ADI takes place during the operation without the presence of abrasive, the phase transition of austenite into martensite in ADI with a lower content of austenite requires higher loads as compared with cast iron containing 40% of austenite.

Abstract
The study presents results of the second part of wear tests of austempered ductile irons on a specially designed test rig that allows simulating the real operating conditions of chain wheels. The chain wheels subjected to testing were operated in conditions characterized by combined action of loose quartz abrasive and an external dynamic force. The studies involved the determination of the hardness, microstructure and linear wear of the ADIs in question considered as a function of the austempering temperature and the austenite content. Based on the results obtained, the following was observed: a decrease in the wear as a function of the austempering temperature and thus in the content of austenite in ADIs; a slight deformation of graphite after completing the wear test involving external dynamic forces; a negative linear dependence between the linear wear and the impact resistance. It was found that the increased wear of cast irons with a lower content of austenite may be caused by the propagation of cracks initiated by damage to graphite nodules, while in the conditions characterized by combined action of abrasive wear and dynamic load the cast irons with a higher content of austenite and higher impact resistance have better wear properties.
Effect of Heat Treatment on the Mechanical Properties of Two-Phase Titanium Alloy Ti6al7nb/ Wpływ Obróbki Cieplnej Na Własności Mechaniczne Dwufazowego Stopu Tytanu Ti6al7nb
Authors: Dąbrowski R. 
Published: February 2015

Abstract
Mechanical properties of the two-phase titanium alloy Ti6Al7Nb, after the heat treatment based on soaking this alloy in the α + β range, cooling in water or oil and ageing at two selected temperatures, were determined in the hereby paper. The alloy mechanical properties were determined in tensile and impact tests, supported by the fractographic analysis of fractures. In addition, its hardness was measured and the analysis of changes occurring in the microstructure was performed for all variants of the alloy heat treatment. Regardless of the applied cooling rate of the alloy, from a temperature of 970°C followed by ageing at 450 and 650°C, none essential changes were noticed in its microstructure. It was shown that applying less intensive cooling medium (oil) instead of water (before tempering) decreases strength properties indicators, i.e. tensile strength and yield strength as well as hardness (only slightly). The decrease of the above mentioned indicators is accompanied by an increase of an elongation and impacts strength. Fractures of tensile and impact tests are of a ductile character regardless of the applied heat treatment.

Authors: Alexey Skovikov 
Published: February 2015

AbstractThe international practices takes into account the question of women's participation in the political life of modern Ukraine. The selection of the state was due to the dynamic process of democratic transformation - the separation of powers, the formation of multi-party competition among political actors in the electoral process, the activity women in the various institutions of civil society. The position was claimed on the basis of empirical data range of academic institutions and reputable sociological centers, and also interviews with experts who said that the creation of real conditions for self-realization by women's interest in politics is only possible for long term. The process is controversial and caused by political culture, traditions and interests of the ruling class represented mainly by men.
