SummaryThis paper presents an alternative method of demarcating regions of in terest over the myocardium after ad ministration of 123I-heptadecanoic acid to patients with coronary artery disea se. In a matrix of 32 × 32 pixels the elimination rates of the radioactivity, which are not corrected for back ground activity, are visualized per pixel in a functional image. The func tional image showed areas in the myocardium with high values of uncorrected elimination rates. These areas corresponded with the tracer defects on the scintigram. Corrected elimination rates obtained from re gions of interest of functional images were comparable with those of scinti grams. Thus based on functional im ages of uncorrected elimination rates a reliable, objective determination of regions of interest over normal and abnormal myocardium can be made.

This paper presents two methods for estimating the S-N fatigue curve. The first is the traditional linear regression and staircase method. The other, alternative, method is based on random fatigue life, fatigue limit and probability. The both methods provide similar results but the latter one requires fewer test samples

Properties of high manganese austenitic cast steel are not satisfactory; therefore, this material should be hardened. Currently, the commonly used method of hardening does not allow eliminating problems related to premature wear of railway frogs. Therefore, many studies have been carried out to find an alternative method to obtain improved wear resistance of such elements. The article presents an analysis of the mechanical and tribological properties of base and hardened, by different methods, high-manganese cast steel applied for turnouts. Tests were performed for three hardening methods: explosive, pressure-rolling, and dynamic impact. The results were compared with the properties of base material after saturation treatment. The conducted tests allowed the determination of hardness profiles of hardened surfaces, as well as the wear resistance and coefficient of friction, and the obtained results are very promising. Hardening by dynamic impact provided much better results in relation to presently used explosive hardening technology.
