- Authors: E.S. Ivanina, V.P. Monastic.
- Source: Procurement production in mechanical engineering. 2021. Vol. 19. No. 12.
- Abstract: A technique has been developed for determining the critical value of the Niyama criterion based on a computational experiment. It has been established that the critical value of the Niyama criterion depends on the cooling conditions of the alloy and therefore is applicable only to this technological process. The critical values of the Niyama criterion for castings from ML10 and 14Kh17N2L alloys when casting into permanent metal molds and molds from cold-hardening mixtures have been determined. The results obtained were confirmed on a shaped casting of complex geometric shape.

- Source: Foundryman of Russia. 2017. No. 10. P. 38-40.
- Abstract: The density of casting molds and cores is a key indicator of their quality and the basis of a set of performance characteristics. Based on the known density field, it is possible to predict the thermal and filtration properties unevenly distributed in the volume of a shape or rod, and for some materials, the characteristics of mechanical properties. The mentioned properties of materials are part of the information support for numerical calculations of the formation of castings in computer modeling systems of foundry processes (SCM LP), therefore, the availability of information on the distribution of mixture density in the volume of sand cores and molds ultimately makes it possible to increase the accuracy of modeling foundry technology.

Calculation of residual stresses of cast workpieces in SCM LP "PoligonSoft"
- Authors: A.V. Monastyrsky, Ph.D. (CSoft).
- Source: Mechanical engineering.
- Abstract: When creating and implementing a technological process for producing a casting, technologists rarely pay attention to issues related to its stress-strain state (SSS). In this case, the occurrence of stresses and deformations during the solidification of the melt in the mold is inevitable, and their impact on the quality of the casting is always negative. It should be noted that the use of computer modeling systems for foundry processes (SCM LP) is quite common in Russia and many of them, to one degree or another, have functionality and mathematical models for calculating the VAT of castings.

- Abstract: Numerical analysis using computer modeling systems for foundry processes (CMF) has now become a traditional procedure in the development of casting production technology. The main trend in the development of this approach in the design of foundry technology is to increase the adequacy of computer analysis associated with the improvement of existing and development of new models for predicting the conditions for the formation of casting quality, as well as paying special attention to the accuracy of the physical and physicochemical characteristics of materials introduced in the calculations. A positive impact on the quality of casting analysis can be had by introducing into the initial data information about the unevenly distributed temperature-dependent characteristics of the material of the molds and cores.

Computer modeling of the stress state of molds for high-alloy steel ingots
- Authors: Panteleeva A., Kovalevich E.
- Source: CADmaster No. 2, 2013, p. 41-43.
- Abstract: Analysis of the reasons for the destruction of molds shows that on average 40-45% of molds are rejected due to the formation of cracks, 40-45% - due to deterioration of the internal surface, 10-15% - due to erosion and about 5% come out of malfunctioning due to mechanical damage. Small molds for special steels are rejected due to cracks in 70-80% of cases. The formation of cracks in molds occurs as a result of the metal reaching the limiting values of deformation and stress, which depend on the structure of the metal, heating temperature and loading conditions and are realized by shear deformation in stress concentration zones.

Production of large forging ingots without axial shrinkage defects in a modified mold
- Authors: Broitman O.A.
- Source: Metallurgy and mechanical engineering. 2012. No. 5. P. 43-46.
- Abstract: A typical defect in forging ingots is axial shrinkage looseness associated with a violation of the directional solidification regime during the formation of the cast billet. It is proposed to change the design of the mold by creating pockets in its upper part, which are filled with heat-insulating material (foundry sand). The correct choice of the location of pockets and heat insulator allows you to change the heat removal from the ingot in such a way as to reliably ensure compliance with the directional solidification regime. The proposed economical solution makes it possible to obtain ingots that are practically free from shrinkage defects by controlling their solidification regime.

- Abstract: Large steel forging ingots are used as blanks in the production of high-power turbine rotors, rolling rolls, etc. These parts must have a homogeneous structure, be distinguished by uniform distribution and a high level of mechanical properties, and not contain discontinuities. Steel ingot casting technologies are continuously optimized to improve their efficiency and product quality. Computer modeling can be an effective research method when searching for ways to improve technological solutions, allowing for virtual testing of the parameters of casting technology, saving on possible losses associated with the practical implementation of unsuccessful solutions, and minimizing the launch time for production. This work is devoted to a comprehensive computer analysis of traditional technologies for casting large steel forge ingots. Among the considered processes occurring during the formation of ingots: hydrodynamics of filling the cavity of the casting equipment, solidification of the metal, heat exchange and mechanical interactions in the ingot-equipment system, the formation of shrinkage porosity and cavities, the occurrence of segregation, feeding of the ingot. The study was carried out using modern commercial foundry process simulation systems, and also used some original software applications. One of the goals of the study was to develop recommendations for optimizing the casting process of the considered ingots. The simulation results were compared with experimental data. Based on the results of these comparisons, if necessary,

Introduction of modern methods of development and optimization of technological processes in foundry production
- Authors: A.V. Monastic.
- Source: Foundry, 2010, No. 5, pp. 5 – 8. CADmaster, 2010, No. 2, pp. 62-64.
- Abstract: Reasonable and efficient use of all resources while maintaining (and even increasing) the quality of products is probably the dream of any enterprise manager. Realization of a dream ensures not only a reduction in the cost of manufactured products, but also an increase in demand and increased competitiveness. In our market times, every defective part, every kilogram of wasted material leads to a drop in the enterprise’s profit, employee wages, loss of qualified personnel, and production stoppage. The need to improve product quality while simultaneously reducing the consumption of all resources: metal, gas, water, electricity is absolutely obvious.

- Source: Foundry, 2009, No. 10, pp. 24 – 27. CADmaster, 2009, No. 5, pp. 46-49.
- Abstract: Modeling the stress-strain state (SSS) of a casting is one of the stages in the development of the technological process for casting a shaped product. Ignoring this stage increases the risk of defects such as hot and cold cracks and warping in castings. The reasons for the formation of the listed defects are known and depend on the alloy, mold flexibility, casting geometry, design of the gating-feeding system, temperature conditions of the casting process, etc. Eliminating them experimentally, using the “trial and error” method, can be a lengthy and ineffective process.
