МОДЕЛИРОВАНИЕ ПРОЦЕССА ГЛУБОКОЙ ВЫТЯЖКИ ТРУБЧАТЫХ ПЕРЕХОДНИКОВ ИЗ СЛОИСТЫХ ТИТАНОАЛЮМИНИЕВЫХ ПЛАСТИН

There was described technological process of titanium-aluminium tubular coupling pieces from explosive welded stock material with the use of pressing operation. There was demonstrated possibility of stimulation with the aid of software package SIMULIA/Abaqus of the staged of deformation in deep drawing of layered titanium-aluminium composites, allowing to define permissible range of variation of the bending radii of punch and the leading edge of the die.Описан технологический процесс получения трубчатых титаноалюминиевых переходников из сваренных взрывом заготовок с использованием операций листовой штамповки. Показана возможность моделирования с помощью программного комплекса SIMULIA/Abaqus стадий деформирования при глубокой вытяжке слоистых титаноалюминиевых композитов, позволяющего определять допустимые диапазоны варьирования радиусов закругления пуансона и входной кромки матрицы

СТРУКТУРНЫЕ ИЗМЕНЕНИЯ АЛЮМОМАГНИЕВОГО КОМПОЗИТА, ПОЛУЧЕННОГО СВАРКОЙ ВЗРЫВОМ, ПОСЛЕ ИЗГИБА И ТЕРМООБРАБОТКИ

The effect of bending deformation and subsequent heat treatment on the behavior of micromechanical properties and fine structure of explosion welded АD1-MA2-0 magnesium-aluminum composite material has been investigated. It is established that after heat treatment (t = 300 and 400 °C, τ = 1 h) explosion welded and bent composite material shows formation of an intermetallic layer, which significantly affects the fine structure characteristics.Исследовано влияние деформации изгиба и последующей термической обработки на характер изменения микромеханических свойств и характеристики тонкой структуры алюмомагниевого композиционного материала АД1–МА2-0 после сварки взрывом. Установлено, что после термообработки (t = 300 и 400 °С, τ = 1 ч) композита, сваренного взрывом и подвергнутого изгибу, формируется интерметаллидная прослойка, оказывающая существенное влияние на поведение характеристик тонкой структуры

Travel notes Russia and Russians by Victor Tissot in the context of Russian-French relations at the turn of the 20th century

For the first time in the national literary studies, the article examines the book of travel notes Russia and Russians (1882) by the French writer Victor Tissot (1845-1917). Tissot’s travel notes on Russia are considered in the context of Russian-French relations at the turn of the 20th century, Russia’s growing interest in France on the eve of the conclusion of the Russian-French alliance. The article proves that the basic opposition constructing the image of Russia in Tissot’s book is the opposition of Russia and Ukraine. Tissot poetizes the image of Little Russia (which is understood not without the influence of ideas of Adam Miczkevich and Cyprien Robert) as the custodian of the original “Slavicness.” Despite the poetization of Ukraine, Tissot considered Moscow the true center of the Russian Empire, the city expressing the spirit of the country. The influence on Tissot’s travel notes about Russia by Theophile Gautier, impressionism, the traditions of Germaine de Stael is shown. Tissot sought to contrast the tradition of Gautier’s “aestheticized” discourse about about Russia with a more “realistic” image of Moscow and Russia by expanding the scope of the depicted, by describing not only the ceremonial, but also the shadow life of Moscow and Russia. The characteristic feature of Tissot’s poetics is the combination of aesthetics with macabre and gothic elements in the structure of the image of Russia. The article concludes that Tissot made a significant contribution to the destruction of the myth of Russia’s closedness, created by Custine and the Paris press, and to the generation of a generally positive image of Russia on the eve of the conclusion of the Russian-French alliance. The author declares no conflicts of interests.</jats:p

Peter the Great in the Memoirs of Marquis de Dangeau and Duc de Saint-Simon

The article for the first time compares the image of Peter the Great in the memoirs of two contemporary French writers Philippe de Courcillon, Marquis de Dangeau (1638‒1720), and Louis de Rouvroy, duc de Saint-Simon (1675–1755). Both Saint- Simon’s continuity in relation to Dangeau’s memoirs and the methods and techniques of their original literary processing are shown. The influence of the writers’ world outlooks and their political views on their interpretations of the figure of Peter the Great is revealed. For Dangeau, Peter the Great was a “curious case”, while for Saint-Simon he was the model of an enlightened monarch, a reigning ascetic striving for knowledge and transformation of his state. In this capacity, Peter the Great is opposed to the depraved and pleasure-seeking French court of the era of the Regency. It has been proved that Saint-Simon stood at the origins of “Peter’s myth” in France. The differences in the poetics of the memoirs of Dangeau and Saint-Simon have been revealed. Dangeau’s laconic and fact-based style emphasizes the mastery of the psychological portrait and the breadth of generalizations of the moralist and thinker Saint-Simon.</jats:p
