Travel is an inseparable part of human life. It is connected not only with private life but also with business life. People want to travel more, farther and faster. That is why air transport is currently one of the fastest-growing areas of passenger transport, and airlines carry more and more passengers from year to year. Due to the growing negative impact of air transport on the natural environment, research aimed at the development of technologies to reduce the negative impact of air transport is becoming more and more important. One of the possibilities for improving the situation is the use of alternative energy sources, limiting the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The paper aimed to analyze the meaningfulness of replacing the classic power unit in a light transport aircraft with a hybrid, combustion-electric power unit. Analyzes were made with the use of simulation methods for the PZL M-28 aircraft.
The article presents an analysis of the turning parameters of two non-ferrous materials. The tested materials were: brass CuZn39Pb3 and aluminum alloy AW 6060. A Kyocera turning knife and a WNMG 080404 AH plate were used to make the samples. Three parameters were tested: rotational speed, feed and depth of cut at three levels of variability. The roughness parameters Ra and Rz were selected for the analysis. On the basis of the obtained results, it was shown that the feed used during machining has the greatest influence on roughness, while the change of depth or cutting speed does not cause significant differences in roughness.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
