DATABASES AND MODEL BASES – THE FUNDAMENTAL BASIS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW TECHNOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS IN THE PRODUCTION OF QUALITY STEELS

The information basis for theoretical and applied metallurgy in developing solutions aimed at improving existing ones and developing fundamentally new technological schemes for manufacturing high-quality metal products are problem-oriented programs, which should be based on a reliable Database and Model Database. Analysis of modern specialized computer programs indicates a significant lack of such models for multicomponent melts. Undoubtedly, the issue of their maintenance and support at the proper level should be considered as a task of industry significance with the active participation and assistance in filling in the data by leading domestic manufacturers, experimental and laboratory research by metallurgical scientists, and administrative support for their commercialization for use by foreign countries. The effectiveness of using the physicochemical apparatus of the directional chemical bond concept for predicting the properties of metal melts (R2≥0,9) is shown, which will ensure the further production of steel with the indicators demanded by metal consumers.
