Kanunnikova S.G., Zhukebayeva T. Zh., Murzakhmetova A.A., Dostayeva A.M. Peculiarities of Formation and Methods of Evaluation of Blast-Furnace Iron Structure
The article discusses the peculiarities of formation and methods of evaluation of blastfurnace iron structure. The method of evaluating iron by macrostructure is taken as a basis in the work. While doing the work there arose the necessity of prйcising some peculiarities of crystallization of blast-furnace iron in the ingot mold walls, since there are no probe-tested and generally acceptedmethods of evaluating the structure of blast-furnace iron, investigations in that direction were carried out. The article presents a characteristic of cast iron structures, as well as that of graphite inclusions in blastfurnace iron.
Key words: blast-furnace iron, ingot mold, graphite inclusions, macrostructure, classification.

Neiman A.V., Filonova Y.V., Iskhodzhanova I.V. On the Local Recrystallization in Single Crystals of Heat-Resistant Nickel Alloys
Coolable single-crystal blades with an internal cavity of an intricate geometry are exceptionally critical products for aircraft. Possible presence of recrystallized areas in single-crystal blades of heat-resistant nickel alloys causes a number of problems in the operation of those products in gas-turbine engines. Due to absence of grain boundary strengthening carbides in the structure of such alloys, a single-crystal blade becomes vulnerable in the areas, where recrystallization occurred, and new grains formed. The authors investigated the kinetics and anisotropy of recrystallization in singlecrystal specimens of heat-resistant nickel alloys of the 4th generation.
Key words: heat-resistant nickel alloys, single crystals, deformation by indentor, recrystallization.
