Modeling of liquid flow in surface discontinuities

Polymer composite and metallic materials have found wide application in various industries such as aviation, rocket, car manufacturing, ship manufacturing, etc. Many design elements need permanent quality control. Ensuring high quality and reliability of products is impossible without effective nondestructive testing methods. One of these methods is penetrant testing using penetrating substances based on liquid penetration into defect cavities. In this paper, we propose a model of liquid flow to determine the rates of filling the defect cavities with various materials and, based on this, to choose optimal control modes

The Method of Manufacturing Nonmetallic Test-Blocks on Different Sensitivity Classes

Nowadays in our modern world there is a vital question of quality control of details made from nonmetallic materials due to their wide spreading. Nondestructive penetrant testing is effective, and in some cases it is the only possible method of accidents prevention at high-risk sites. A brief review of check sample necessary for quality evaluation of penetrant materials is considered. There was offered a way of making agents for quality of penetrant materials testing according to different liquid penetrant testing sensibility classes

Определение возможности применения неметаллических контрольных образцов для оценки работоспособности дефектоскопических материалов и оценки чувствительности капиллярного контроля

INTRODUCTION. Liquid penetrant testing (PT) is one of the most widely used non-destructive testing methods for detecting surface discontinuities in nonporous solid materials. This method has shown good results when looking for defects in details made of any nonporous materials including glass, ceramics, plastic, magnetic or nonmagnetic metals or alloys. Penetrant materials and check samples are the main tools for PT. The samples are used to estimate the performance of penetrant materials and to evaluate the sensitivity of the testing technology. AIM OF THE PAPER. The paper aims to evaluate the discontinuity parameters, such as cracks, in non-metal samples to determine the feasibility of using these samples to assess the sensitivity of the testing technology. METHODS. Discontinuity parameters in non-metallic check samples were determined using a microscope, and then the data was statistically processed in accordance with GOST 8.736-2011"Multiple direct measurements. Methods of measurement results processing. Main principles". RESULTS. The conducted study has showed that samples made of non-metallic material can be used to estimate the performance of penetrant families, as well as to assess penetrant testing sensitivity since the cracks in samples are virtually straight.Введение. Капиллярный метод неразрушающего контроля является одним из наиболее широко используемых методов для выявления поверхностных несплошностей в твердых непористых материалах. Данный метод хорошо зарекомендовал себя при поиске дефектов в деталях из любых непористых материалов, в том числе стекла, керамики, пластмассы, магнитных и немагнитных металлах и сплавах. Дефектоскопические материалы и контрольные образцы являются основными средствами капиллярного контроля. Образцы служат для определения работоспособности дефектоскопических материалов и оценки чувствительности технологии контроля. Цель работы - оценка влияния параметров несплошностей типа трещин в образцах из неметалла для определения возможности применения таких образцов для оценки чувствительности технологии контроля. Методы исследования. Параметры несплошностей в неметаллических контрольных образцах определяли с помощью микроскопа, затем полученные данные подвергали статистической обработке в соответствии с ГОСТ 8.736-2011 «Измерения прямые многократные. Методы обработки результатов измерений. Основные положения». Результаты. По результатам исследования выявлено, что образцы из неметаллического материала пригодны для определения работоспособности наборов дефектоскопических материалов, а также возможности применения данных образцов для оценки чувствительности капиллярного контроля, так как трещины в образцах получаются практически прямолинейными

Traditional Arctic native fish storage methods and their role in the sustainable development of the Arctic

The business of the Arctic has received increased attention owing to climate change. However, resource development and the use of waterways threaten the fragile Arctic ecology. The indigenous people of the Arctic have acquired a vast amount of traditional knowledge about coexisting in harmony with nature over the course of many years. Herein, five types of fish storage facilities that are commonly used by Arctic indigenous people and their working mechanisms are described. The traditional knowledge of the Arctic indigenous people is practically applied in Arctic fish storage systems, which are still common, effective, and environmentally friendly. The traditional fish storage facilities of the aborigines are of significance because they promote the sustainable development of the Arctic

Development of the Arctic reindeer industry from the perspective of Sino-Russian green biomanufacturing cooperation

Russia’s reindeer population accounts for two thirds of the world’s total. There is a strong and resilient population of reindeer on the tundra, and reindeer herders inherit and transmit the unique culture of the north. Reindeer products have become the subject of innovative developments in the biopharmaceutical and healthcare products industry owing to their unique raw material properties. Because deer antlers and blood are widely used in traditional Chinese medicine, significant quantities of Arctic reindeer products are likely to be sold in China. Strengthening understanding of the Russian Arctic reindeer industry will help Chinese companies invest in the Russian Arctic, promote Sino-Russian Arctic cooperation on green biomanufacturing, and lead to the development of new products that promote human health
