J. Zych, J. Kolczyk, Ł. Jamrozowicz, AGH University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Foundry Engineering, Kraków, Poland Multi-layer ceramic moulds are built of slurry and a refractory material forming their matrices. From the moment when the European Union introduced regulations concerning the environment protection requiring substitution of alcoholic binders by aqueous binders, several d...

R. Klempka, AGH University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Automatics, Computer Science and Biomedical Engineering, Krakow, Poland The article presents an example of power supply system modernization in one of Polish steelworks. For the existing power system containing 3rd harmonics filters it was necessary to design a C-type filter for the 2nd harmonics. Two desig...

Ł. Jamrozowicz, J. Zych, J. Kolczyk, AGH University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Foundry Engineering, Kraków, Poland Investigation results of the drying rate of the selected protective coatings (water and alcohol) are presented in the article. Coating drying rate was determined for the first and second layers. The coating was applied to moulding sand cores. The rate of drying coatings ...

The transition from hunter gathering to farming is one of the most important episodes in history humankind. Considerable evidence indicates that this shift was a slow, complex, highly localized process, which took place multiple places Southwest Asia independently, around 9500 BC. Caprines were arguably first domesticated livestock, brought under human control during process began 9th millenniu...

This paper presents results of the research being conducted in the Department of Applied Computer Science at Faculty of Management, AGH University of Science and Technology and concerning the use of database server for business rules modeling as knowledge based systems in information systems design and development. Our assumption was that most business rules would have complex structure and the...

E. Olejnik, A. Janas, B. Grabowska, M. Kawalec, AGH University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Foundry Engineering, Krakow, Poland Casting technology was applied and research was carried out on two alloys based on the Ni3Al phase with variable carbon content of 0,2 and 1,25 wt. % C, respectively. Resistance to abrasive wear, friction coeffi cient and Vickers microhardness were determined....

M. Górny, R. Dańko, M. Holtzer. AGH University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Foundry Engineering, Kraków, Poland This article addresses the effect of mold filling and wall thickness on the flake graphite layer in ductile iron. The research was conducted for castings with different wall thickness (3-8 mm) and using molding sand with furan resin. A thermal analysis has been performed alon...
