Study of the possibility of preparing differentially reinforced billets for high strength crane rails

The possibility is considered of improving the strength and wear resistance of crane rails by differential reinforcement of a billet. It is shown that rail steel K63 fuses well with reinforcing rods of steels 6KhS. This makes it possible to obtain reinforcement of a quasimonolithic billet for crane rails with increased strength.Translated from Problemy Prochnosti, No. 6, pp. 78–81, June, 1993.

Effect of Impeller Blade Geometry on Drop Size in Stirring of Immiscible Liquids

The stirring of immiscible liquids is considered, and the effect of impeller geometry on the dynamic equilibration of the emulsion and on the maximum drop size is analyzed. The dissipation rate of turbulent energy in the wake of an impeller blade is estimated.
