Semi-automatic data linkage and acquisition process for the preparation of Austempered Ductile Iron

摘要

Austempered Ductile Iron (ADI) is the result of heat treatment carried out on the cast iron with nodular graphite. Various parameters of the manufacturing process such as temperature and time in different stages of the process, and also the chemical composition are responsible for the mechanical properties of final material. Data concerning processes of ADI manufacturing derived from experiments could be find in the Web. The paper describes methodology of collecting experimental data concerning the process of ADI manufacturing as well as Web exploration with use of semantic techniques and the framework developed in the School of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering at The University of Queensland, named OGDL: Ontology Guided Data Linkage.
