As the limit of traditional contact measurement, it is difficult to precisely measure the steel cables twisted by a branch of wires especially at elevated temperature. In this paper the strain-stress relationships of S355 and S690 structural steel, 1860 MPa steel cable twisted by seven wires have been measured by the strain gauge, extensometer and non-contact video gauge at ambient temperature and elevated temperature, respectively. Comparison of the stress-strain curves gotten by different measuring technology, it indicates that the non-contact video gauge can provide a more efficient and reliable database than the strain gauge as well as extensometer, especially at an elevated temperature. It is worth noting that the non-contact video gauge can capture not only the full range of stress-strain curves of steel cables, but is also efficient for the specimens with a complex shape.

The elevated temperature mechanical behavior of Mg-Y-Zn alloys was investigated. It was found that the extruded Mg-Y-Zn alloy exhibited excellent mechanical properties both at ambient temperature and elevated temperature. With the increase of tensile temperature, the ultimate tensile strengths of Mg-Y-Zn alloys decreased and their elongations increased. The ultimate tensile strengths increased and elongations decreased with the increase of yttrium content. However, a gradual increase in the ultimate tensile strength and elongation both at ambient temperature and elevated temperature was obtained by increasing both yttrium and zinc contents. The fracture modes of Mg-Y-Zn alloys at different tensile temperature were also investigated.

Mechanical properties and microstructure of extruded AZ91(-Ca) alloys have been studied in this paper. The results showed that Ca has no significant effect on reducing grain size of the extruded AZ91 alloy. The ambient temperature tensile tests showed that the ultimate and yield strength of extruded AZ91 alloy decreased by addition of Ca. At elevated temperature, Ca addition improves the yield strength of both AZ91 alloy. The variations in microstructure and mechanical properties of the AZ91 alloy are also discussed in terms of the effects of Ca on grain refinement and formation of constituent phases.

Abstract In the dissertation it has been shown, that so called „time-thermal treatment” (TTT) of the alloy in liquid state, as overheating the metal with around 250°C above the Tliq. and detaining it in this temperature for around 30 minutes, improves the mechanical properties (HB, Rm, R0,2). It was ascertained, that overheating the AlSi17Cu5Mg alloy aids the modification, resulting with microcrystalline structure. Uniform arrangement of the Si primeval crystals in the warp, and α(Al) solution type, supersaturated with alloying elements present in the base content (Cu, Mg) assures not only increased durability in the ambient temperature, but also at elevated temperature (250°C), what is an advantage, especially due to the use in car industry.

Effects of different species of Sr additives (pure Sr, cast Mg-10Sr block, Ф10mm extruded Al-10Sr bar) on as-cast microstructure and tensile properties both at ambient temperature and elevated temperature of AS31 alloy were studied. The experimental results showed that pure Sr, Mg-10Sr, Al-10Sr additions all could refine the grains of AS31 alloy obviously, modify the eutectic Mg2Si particles and strengthen AS31 alloy. Al-10Sr is most effective to refine microstructure and improve mechanical properties of AS31 alloy.

The microstructure, mechanical properties, thermal stability and tensile fracture of two hot-rolled Al-15 vol.% B4C composite sheets (S40 with 0.4 wt.% Sc and SZ40 with 0.4 wt.% Sc and 0.24 wt.% Zr) were investigated. During multi-pass hot rolling, coarse Al3Sc or Al3(Sc, Zr) precipitations appeared and resulted in the loss of most of their hardening effect. In an appropriate post-rolling heat treatment, the hot-rolled sheets regained a significant precipitation hardening because of the precipitation of fine nanoscale Al3Sc and Al3(Sc,Zr) that uniformly distributed in the aluminum matrix. After the peak aging, the ultimate tensile strength at ambient temperature of the S40 and SZ40 sheets can reach 198 MPa and 215 MPa, respectively. During 2000 h of annealing at 300℃, the strengths at ambient temperature of both S40 and SZ40 composite sheets slowly decreased with increasing annealing time. However, the tensile strengths at 300℃ of both S40 and SZ40 composite sheets remained nearly unchanged and were less sensitive to the annealing time and more tolerable for precipitate coarsening, which demonstrated an excellent long-term thermal stability of both materials at elevated temperature. The tensile fracture at ambient temperature of both S40 and SZ40 composite sheets was dominated by the brittle B4C particle fracture, whereas the interfacial decohesion of B4C particles became the prominent characteristic of the fracture at 300℃.

The mechanical properties of 2219-T87 and 2219-T6 aluminum were determined after soak times from 0 to 300 sec at temperatures from 300 deg F (149 deg C) to 600 deg F (316 deg C). Specimens were tested also at ambient temperatures after a soaking period of 300 sec at temperatures of 200 deg F (93 deg C) to 700 deg F (371 deg C). In general, the tensile strength of the 2219 aluminum alloy decreased with increasing temperature. The tensile properties were not significantly influenced by variations in the soak times used through 500 deg F (260 deg C). At 600 deg F (316 deg C), increasing the soak time affected the strength slightly. For relatively short time exposures, this material can be recommended for load-bearing applications to 400 deg F (204 deg C), at which temperature 70 percent of the ambient temperature strength is still retained. When tested at ambient temperature after exposure to 400 deg F (204 deg C) for 300 sec, 2219-T87 retained approximately 97 percent of its original ambient temperature strength.

Mine Hoist

Operation of inhaul rubber steel cables in vertical mine hoisting is discussed. The research in the field of mine hoisting is reviewed, and the further R&D directions are identified. Some studies concern life extension of hoisting ropes. One of the promising trends seems to be application of belt pullers as inhaul cables, which can essentially enhance mine hoist efficiency. In the meanwhile, capabilities of rubber steel cables suffer from deficient attention. The performance capabilities of rubber steel cables of top manufacturers (Promkanat and SAG) are compared, and application ranges in vertical mine hoisting are determined for such cables. It is found that the Polish manufacturer’s rubber steel cables offer a wider range of application. The analysis shows that rubber steel cables can be used as inhaul cables of vertical mine hoisters. Rubber steel cables possess suitable characteristics and are capable to elevate considerable loads to various hoisting heights. In particular, the existing rubber steel cables ensure carrying capacity of hoists up to 20-25 t at the hoisting heights to 400-500 m and sometimes can elevate skips with tonnage of 10 t to a height up to 1000 m and more. The further feasibility study of operation of inhaul steel rubber cables in hoisting units should address motion stability of a puller on a driving drum, load distribution in ropes of base of rubber steel cables, validation of hoister design, adjustability of rubber steel cable length during its operation, etc.
