Purpose. Substantiation of the possibility obtaining composite cermet electric arc coatings using TiC powder as a strengthening phase, determination their physical and mechanical properties. Methodology. The microstructure was studied by computer metallography ZEISS Gemini SEM 500 scanning electron microscope. chemical composition determined X-ray spectral analysis; phases were identified measu...

To realize large wind power plants in an economically feasible way, it is necessary to identify potential for lightweight design of the generator hollow-shafts, which are commonly produced by casting. The weight of these shafts can significantly be reduced by producing them by open-die forging, since the forming of the material leads to a higher strength, which allows to reduce the wall thickne...

Strengthening of metals as a function metal working and thermal treatment is being utilized effectively in steel structures. Effect on strength beyond thermomechanical has been the focus this research by imprinting nature inspired pattern one side sheet metal. Pangolin scale overlapped AISI 1040 while preserving its base treatment. Microstructure, impact toughness, hardness, tensile with notch ...
