This paper presents the results of hypoeutectic 226 grade alloy as well as prepared on its basis Al-Si alloy containing Cr, V and Mo. The
additives tested were added as AlCr15, AlV10 and AlMo8 master alloys. Alloys tested were poured into DTA sampler as well as using
pressure die casting. An amount of Cr, V and Mo additives in alloy poured into DTA sampler comprised within the range approximately
0.05-0.35%. Alloys to pressure die casting contained 0.05-0.20% Cr, V and Mo. The crystallization process was examined using the derivative
thermal analysis (DTA). The microstructure of castings made in the DTA sampler as well as castings made with use of pressure die
casting were examined. The basic mechanical properties of castings made using pressure die casting were defined too. It has been shown
in the DTA curves of Al-Si alloy containing approximately 0.30 and 0.35% Cr, Mo, and V there is an additional thermal effect probably
caused by a peritectic crystallization of intermetallic phases containing the aforementioned additives. These phases have a morphology
similar to the walled and a relatively large size. The analogous phases also occur in pressure die casting alloys containing 0.10% or more
additions of Cr, V and Mo. The appearance of these phases in pressure die casting Al-Si alloys coincides with a decrease in the value of
the tensile strength Rm and the elongation A. It has been shown die castings made of Al-Si alloys containing the aforementioned additives
have a higher Rm and A than 226 alloy.
This article discusses the traffic types typically used in industrial networks. The authors propose a number of methods of generating traffic that can be used in modeling traffic sources in the networks under consideration. The proposed traffic model have been developed on the basis of the ON/OFF model. The proposed solutions can be applied to model typical traffic types that are used in industrial systems, such as Time-Triggered (TT) traffic, Audio-Video Bridging (AVB) traffic or Best Effort traffic. The article discusses four traffic models with modifications and shows how the proposed models can be used in modeling different traffic types used in industrial networks.
This article proposes an analytical model of a system with priorities servicing a mixture of different elastic traffic streams. The model presented in the article was developed as the extension of earlier works published by the authors. It utilizes the concept of equivalent bandwidth and then, following bandwidth discretization, uses the dependencies introduced on the basis of the assumptions adopted for the generalized Kaufman-Roberts formula and for the model of a full-availability group with traffic compression. The article presents a possibility of using the proposed model to model the radio interface in a multi-service mobile network and provides an example of the above with the interface of an LTE network. Since the proposed model is an approximate one, the results of the calculations are compared with the results of simulations. A comparison of the results confirms an acceptable level of accuracy of the model. The model can be successfully used in the analysis and design of links and nodes of telecommunication and computer networks.
