In this work, a novel multistep reheating regime is developed for recrystallisation and partial melting (RAP) route to prepare fine spheroidal microstructure of semi-solid AI-Zn- Mg-Cu alloy. After reheating to 665 ℃, holding for 4 min and subsequent isothermally holding at 620 ℃ with total heating time of 15 min, fine spheroidal microstructures with grain size of-40 μm were prepared without remained unrecrystallised grains and directionality, which are much finer than the conventionally obtained microstructures (-100 μm).展开更多

The motorcycle wheel made of AM60B alloy was used as the typical component to demonstrate advantages of the double control forming. The effect of pressure on the mechanical properties and microstructure of the parts formed by double control forming was investigated. The results showed that high mechanical properties and complex shape were achieved in the parts formed by double control forming. Compared to die casting, the mechanical properties of the formed part significantly increased and the microstructure changed from the coarse dendrites to fine equiaxed grains. The shrinkage voids and microcracks in the formed parts were obviously reduced or even completely eliminated with the increase of pressure. When a pressure of 4000 kN was applied, the optimal mechanical properties such as ultimate tensile strength of 265.6 MPa and elongation of 21% were achieved and the microstructure was characterized by fine and uniform equiaxed grains due to the large undercooling degree caused by the high pressure.展开更多

The vascular properties of low-dose acetyl salicylic acid (aspirin) provide cardiovascular benefits through the irreversible inhibition of platelet cyclooxygenase 1; however, the possible anti-hypertrophic properties and potential mechanism of aspirin have not been investigated in detail. In this study, healthy wild-type male mice were randomly divided into three groups and subjected to transverse aortic constriction (TAC) or sham operation. The TAC-operated mice were treated with the human equivalent of low-dose aspirin (10 mg·kg^-1· d^-1); the remaining mice received an equal amount of phosphate buffered saline with 0.65% ethanol, which was used as a vehicle. A cardiomyocyte hypertrophy model induced by angiotensin II (10 nmol· L^-1) was treated with the human equivalent of low (10 or 100μmol·L^-1) and high (1000μmol·L^-1) aspirin concentrations in plasma. Changes in the cardiac structure and function were assessed through echocardiography and transmission electron microscopy. Gene expression was determined through RT-PCR and western blot analysis. Results indicated that aspirin treatment abrogated the increased thickness of the left ventricular anterior and posterior walls, the swelling of mitochondria, and the increased surface area in in vivo and in vitro hypertrophy models. Aspirin also normalized the upregulated hypertrophic biomarkers, p-myosin heavy chain (IS-MHC), atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), and b-type natriuretic peptide (BNP). Aspirin efficiently reversed the upregulation of β-catenin and P-Akt expression and the TAC- or ANG II-induced downregulation of GSK-3~. Therefore, low-dose aspirin possesses significant anti-hypertrophic properties at clinically relevant concentrations for anti-thrombotic therapy. The downregulation of β-catenin and Akt may be the underlying signaling mechanism of the effects of aspirin.展开更多
