The effects of initial microstructure on the flow stress, strain rate sensitivity （m）, strain hardening exponent （n）, apparent activation energy （Q） for deformation of Ti-5Al-2Sn-2Zr-4Mo-4Cr alloy were investiga...The effects of initial microstructure on the flow stress, strain rate sensitivity （m）, strain hardening exponent （n）, apparent activation energy （Q） for deformation of Ti-5Al-2Sn-2Zr-4Mo-4Cr alloy were investigated using isothermal compression tests. Results show that the alloy with Widmanst-tten alpha plates shows a higher peak stress and flow softening. Additionally, the alloy with equiaxed primary alpha exhibits an early yield drop at or above 810 ℃ and at strain rates of 0.1-5.0 s^-1. In the strain range of 0.5-0.7,m of the alloy with equiaxed primary alpha is found to be larger at 0.01 s^-1 and lower deformation temperatures. This phenomenon could be reasonably explained based on the microstructure evolution. The strain has a significant effect onn of the alloy with Widmanst-tten alpha plates, which is attributed to platelet bending/kinking and dynamic globularization ofα phase. In the strain range of 0.15-0.55,Q of the alloy with Widmanst-tten alpha plates is larger.展开更多

We address the key question as to whether at least some of these YMCs can be considered protoglobular clusters （GCs）, in which case these would be expected to evolve into counterparts of the ubiquitous old GCs believed to be among the oldest galactic building blocks. In the absence of significant external perturbations, the key factor determining a cluster＇s long-term survival chances is the shape of its stellar initial mass function （IMF）. It is, however, not straightforward to assess the IMF shape in unresolved extragalactic YMCs. We discuss in detail the promise of using high-resolution spectroscopy to make progress towards this goal, as well as the numerous pitfalls associated with this approach. We also discuss the latest progress in worldwide efforts to better understand the evolution of entire cluster systems, the disruption processes they are affected by, and whether we can use recently gained insights to determine the nature of at least some of the YMCs observed in extragalactic starbursts as proto-GCs. We conclude that there is an increasing body of evidence that GC formation appears to be continuing until today; their long-term evolution crucially depends on their environmental conditions, however.展开更多
