Purpose: The work presents the application of the Finite Elements Method in a computer simulation whose aim is to determine the properties of PVD and CVD coatings on various substrates and to optimise parameters of a laser surface treatment process of surface layers of tool steels. Design/methodology/approach: The article discusses the application of the finite elements method for simulating the determination of stresses and microhardness of Ti+TiN, Ti+Ti(CN) and Ti+TiC coatings obtained in a magnetron PVD process on a substrate of sinter high-speed steel, of Ti/Ti(C,N)/CrN, Ti/Ti(C, N)/(Ti, Al)N, Ti/(Ti, Si)N/(Ti, Si)N, Cr/ CrN/CrN, Cr/CrN/TiN and Ti/DLC/DLC coatings obtained in a PVD and CVD process on magnesium alloys, of graded and monolayer coatings (Ti, Al)N, Ti(C,N) produced with the PVD arc technique on a substrate of sintered carbides, cermets and oxide tool ceramics and tool steel remelted and alloyed with a high-performance diode laser (HPDL). Modeling of stresses was performed with the help of finite element method in ANSYS and MARC environment, and the experimental values of stresses were determined based on the sin2Ψ. Findings: The models presented satisfy the assumed criteria, and they can be applied for the determination of properties of surface layers and optimisation of PVD and CVD processes and laser alloying and remelting. The results of a computer simulation correlate with experimental results. The models developed allow to largely eliminate costly, timeconsuming and specialist experiments which have to be done during investigations for the benefit of computer simulations. Research limitations/implications: To be able to assess the possibility of application of surface layers, a computer simulation of other properties of coatings has to be additionally carried out, and a strength analysis has to be made of other coatings coated onto various substrate materials. Originality/value: value Computer simulation and modelling is an interdisciplinary field necessary for the development of science and technology, enabling to perform direct visualisation of properties, which cannot be identified in experimental observations. The purpose of computer simulation and modelling is to improve the ability to predict results and to optimise solutions.

Abstract The problem of cooperation of powered roof support with the floor in the aspect of shaping its design is presented. From the analysis of the simplifying assumptions considered so far in the methods for determination of roof support’s base pressure on the floor, it results that they are not satisfied in the case of bases of the catamaran type, commonly used in currently manufactured roof supports. Model of cooperation of the base lying on the floor, prepared by the finite elements method is described and the results of computer simulation of the base action on the floor are given. Considering the results of numerical analyses, the factors influencing the pressure distribution of the base on the floor as well as its maximal value, have been identified.

The article describes the method of determining the parameters of the hardening curve of homogeneous and structured coatings (modulus of elasticity, tangential modulus of elasticity and yield strength) required for the strength analysis of parts with coatings that determine their basic performance and strength characteristics. The dependence for determination of tangential (tangential) modulus of elasticity using the results of nanoindentation is proposed. An algorithm for determining the yield strength of the coating material is developed based on solving the problem of elastic-plastic deformation of the coating during the introduction of the indenter by the finite element method. According to the proposed method, the parameters of the TiN/AlN in coating hardening curve were determined based on the results of indentation of the sample of tool high-speed steel with the appropriate coating.

This paper presents research of influence electrolyte plasma carbonitriding on tribological properties of R6M5 high-speed steel. Shows perspectiveness of carbonitriding high-speed steels in electrolyte plasma. The results of research demonstrated increasing wear-resistance of R6M5 steel after carbonitriding in electrolyte plasma. Under the same test conditions by the method of scratch-test have been determined that the depth of the scar of a modified layer has become less in comparison with the original sample, which indicates a significant increase of wear-resistance and hardness of the surface carbonitriding layer R6М5 steel. It was set that after electrolytic-plasma carbonitriding abrasive wear-resistance of the surface layers of R6M5 steel is increased by 25%. Introduction

The article presents the results of computer simulation of the crystallization of castings from high-speed steel R6M5, intended for the manufacture of cutters and gear shaping tools in the conditions of OJSC “Minsk Gear Plant”. The use of modeling made it possible to optimize the gating system, reduce this volume of the profitable part by 30–35 % and increase the yield of suitable casting, which made it possible to reduce the consumption of expensive alloying elements introduced into the melt to compensate for burnout during melting and casting.
