Microstructural modification is an effective way to enhance the resistance to HIC. The present study focused on the relationship between the retained austenite (RA) and HIC behavior in NiCrMoV/Nb multi-alloying ultra-strength steel. Results demonstrated that the maximum volume fraction of RA of 9.31% was obtained for QL30T specimen. After the deep cryogenic pretreatment, the volume fraction of RA reduced to 8.8%. RA could reduce the effective diffusion coefficient, while deep cryogenic pretreatment increased the susceptibility of the steel to HIC by a maxim of 14.8%. This was mainly due to the transformation of retained austenite into martensite, degrading the mechanical properties under hydrogen-charged condition. In addition, the deep cryogenic pretreatment had a significant effect on the crack initiation and propagation, with the intergranular (IG) fracture becoming the dominant fracture mode where an increase in the number of secondary cracks in the section. The interfaces of RA and matrix, as well as the grain boundaries, were the preferred sites for cracks initiation.展开更多

The impact of retained austenite on its corrosion behavior with immersion experiments and related corrosion sensor technology was explored. A model that clarifies the micro-galvanic effect and the heat-induced changes to the shape and composition of retained austenite was used to discuss the findings. The results indicated that retained austenite was generated following an intercritical process and demonstrated approximately 48 mV higher Volta potential than the matrix. The retained austenite content first increased and then decreased with increasing intercritical temperatures, while reaching the maximum value of 8.5% at 660℃. With the increase in retained austenite content, the corrosion rate was increased by up to 32.8% compared to “quenching + tempering” (QT) specimen. The interfaces between the retained austenite and matrix were the priority nucleation sites for corrosion. Moreover, the retained austenite reduced the corrosion resistance of the steel by increasing the micro-galvanic effect and reducing rust layer compactness.展开更多

[Method] The application proportion of complex water-holding organic materials was determined by multi-factor mixture experiment and the curve changes of soil moisture characters were tested to analyze water-holding capacity and water availability of soils. [Result] The initial moisture content of soil with different mixture proportions improved in varying degrees. For example, when water-retention agents reached 0.4% and 0.6% of soil weight, soil moisture contents were 69.0% and70.5%, respectively, which showed significant differences with the control（S0.0）. Soil dehydration terms in different treatments all extended, prolonging in the range of4.6-14 d. [Conclusion] The applications of water-retention agent and organic material would improve water-holding capacity of hills and low mountains, and initial moisture content and dehydration cycle tend to be volatile upon mixture proportion. Therefore,it is necessary to adjust soil fertility, crop species, and irrigation to meet crop demands on fertilizer and water.展开更多

The objective of this study is to study the effect of feldspathic sandstone amendment on water retention in sandy land. The results showed that as the proportion of fine feldspathic sandstone in the sandy land soil increased, the soil texture changed from sand to silt loam, the capillary po- rosity gradually increased from 26.3% to 44.9%, and the soil saturated hydraulic conductivity decreased from 7.10 ram/rain to 0.07 mm/min. Feldspathic sandstone gravel formed micro-reservoirs in the sandy land soil, playing the role of a ＇water absorbent＇ and ＇water retaining agent＇ in sandy land. Amendment with feldspathic sandstone can increase water retention in the arable layer of sandy land by 67%. This study provides a theoretical basis for the amelioration of sandy land on a large scale. It can be concluded that amendment with feldspathic sandstone can improve the physical properties of sandy land soil and increase soil water retention.展开更多

Thus, the effects of heat treatments including direct quenching, martempering, and austempering on the retained austenite existing in the microstrueture of these steels were investigated. Specimens were austenized at 950 ℃ followed by direct quenching using compressed and still air. The specimens were also isothermally quenched in salt bath at 200 and 300 ℃ for 2, 8, 30, and 120min. Microstructures of the specimens were studied using optical microscope （traditional black and white etching as well as color etching）, scanning electron microscope （SEM）, microhardness tester, and X-ray diffraction （XRD）. The results showed that the lowest amount of retained austenite in the microstructure was obtained in the specimens quenched isothermally at 300 ℃ for 120 min.展开更多

文摘Hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC) is one of the most complex material problems that hydrogen can diffuse into and interact with microstructure, degrading their mechanical properties. Microstructural modification is an effective way to enhance the resistance to HIC. The present study focused on the relationship between the retained austenite (RA) and HIC behavior in NiCrMoV/Nb multi-alloying ultra-strength steel. Results demonstrated that the maximum volume fraction of RA of 9.31% was obtained for QL30T specimen. After the deep cryogenic pretreatment, the volume fraction of RA reduced to 8.8%. RA could reduce the effective diffusion coefficient, while deep cryogenic pretreatment increased the susceptibility of the steel to HIC by a maxim of 14.8%.

And their hemorheological indexes were measured and compared with the corresponding indicators of pre-administration group, healthy group, and control group （sick but untreated）.[ Result] There was large decrease amplitude in the indexes （whole blood viscosity, plasma viscosity, whole blood viscosity reduction viscosity, ESR, ESR equation K value, fibrinogen content, platelet aggregation rate, RBC deformability IF value） of treated dairy cattle with retained placenta. By t test, the indexes, except hematocrit, decreased significantly after treatment （P〈0.05） and reached the status of post partum healthy cows. The hemorheological indexes didn＇t change significantly in the control group before and after treatment. [ Conclusion] Yizhikang powder could significantly improve blood flow state and reduced the occurrence of qi stagnation and blood stasis in perinatal period.

文摘[Objective] The aim was to reduce fertilizer and water losses caused by surface runoffs in rainy season and provide scientific references for soil moisture in arid season. [Method] The application proportion of complex water-holding organic materials was determined by multi-factor mixture experiment and the curve changes of soil moisture characters were tested to analyze water-holding capacity and water availability of soils. [Result] The initial moisture content of soil with different mixture proportions improved in varying degrees. For example, when water-retention agents reached 0.4% and 0.6% of soil weight, soil moisture contents were 69.0% and70.5%, respectively, which showed significant differences with the control（S0.0）. Soil dehydration terms in different treatments all extended, prolonging in the range of4.6-14 d. [Conclusion] The applications of water-retention agent and organic material would improve water-holding capacity of hills and low mountains, and initial moisture content and dehydration cycle tend to be volatile upon mixture proportion. Therefore,it is necessary to adjust soil fertility, crop species, and irrigation to meet crop demands on fertilizer and water.
文摘The equation which reflects the relationship between the retained austenite and strain has been proposed and clear TRIP can be obtained while the S value (An index of retained austenite stability) is less than 6.5 for Silicon-Manganese TRIP steel
文摘This paper describes the development of an expert system(ES) on earth retaining structures for the selection and design.The ES retaining is an interactive menudriven system and consists of two main parts—the selection part,selectwall and the design part.Selectwall is developed using the knowledge base and it makes a choice of the most appropriate retaining structure.The design part is developed by three independent subprograms which perform detailed design including strength,deformation,stability of the retaining structure.The calculation results are illustrated by plotting the diagram.Using this program,the design procedure of the retaining structure can be performed automatically.
文摘The systematic chemical compositions including common C, Si, Mn, Al, and micro-alloying elements of Ti and Nb were designed for high volume fraction of retained austenite as much as possible. The thermo-cycle experiments were conducted by using Gleeble 2000 thermo-dynamic test machine for finding the appropriate composition. The experimental results showed that chemical composition had a significant effect on retained austenite, and the appropriate compositions were determined for commercial production of TRIP steels.

文摘Both microstrueture and mechanical properties of low alloy steels treated by quenching and partitioning （Q＆P） process were examined. The mixed microstructure of martensite and large-fractioned retained austenite （about 27.3%） was characterized and analyzed, excellent combinations of total elongation of 19% and tensile strength of 1 835 MPa were obtained, and three-stage work hardening behavior was demonstrated during tensile test. The en hanced mechanical properties and work hardening behavior were explained based on the transformation induced plas ticity effect of large fractioned austenite.

文摘This paper analyzed the water-retention mechanism of feldspathic sandstone （fine-（〈 1 mm diam.） and gravel-sized （2-3 cm diam.） in Mu Us Sandy Land, Northwest China. The objective of this study is to study the effect of feldspathic sandstone amendment on water retention in sandy land. The results showed that as the proportion of fine feldspathic sandstone in the sandy land soil increased, the soil texture changed from sand to silt loam, the capillary po- rosity gradually increased from 26.3% to 44.9%, and the soil saturated hydraulic conductivity decreased from 7.10 ram/rain to 0.07 mm/min. Feldspathic sandstone gravel formed micro-reservoirs in the sandy land soil, playing the role of a ＇water absorbent＇ and ＇water retaining agent＇ in sandy land. Amendment with feldspathic sandstone can increase water retention in the arable layer of sandy land by 67%. This study provides a theoretical basis for the amelioration of sandy land on a large scale. It can be concluded that amendment with feldspathic sandstone can improve the physical properties of sandy land soil and increase soil water retention.

文摘Effects of silicon （Si） content on the stability of retained austenite and temper embrittlement of ultrahigh strength steels were investigated using X-ray diffraction （XRD）,transmission electron microscopy （TEM）,and other experimental methods.The results show that Si can suppress temper embrittlement,improve temper resistance,and hinder the decomposition of retained austenite.Reversed austenite appears gradually with the increase of Si content during tempering.Si has a significant effect on enhancing carbon （C） partitioning and improving the stability of retained austenite.Si and C atoms are mutually exclusive in lath bainite,while they attract each other in austenite.ε-carbides are found in 1.8wt% Si steel tempered at 250℃,and they get coarsened obviously when tempered at 400℃,leading to temper embrittlement.Not ε-carbides but acicular or lath carbides lead to temper embrittlement in 0.4wt% Si steel,which can be inferred as cementites and composite compounds.Temper embrittlement is closely related to the decomposition of retained austenite and the formation of reversed austenite.
文摘The presence of retained austenite gives rise to deterioration of the wear resistance and fracture strength of Cr-Mo steels in many cases. Thus, the effects of heat treatments including direct quenching, martempering, and austempering on the retained austenite existing in the microstrueture of these steels were investigated. Specimens were austenized at 950 ℃ followed by direct quenching using compressed and still air. The specimens were also isothermally quenched in salt bath at 200 and 300 ℃ for 2, 8, 30, and 120min. Microstructures of the specimens were studied using optical microscope （traditional black and white etching as well as color etching）, scanning electron microscope （SEM）, microhardness tester, and X-ray diffraction （XRD）. The results showed that the lowest amount of retained austenite in the microstructure was obtained in the specimens quenched isothermally at 300 ℃ for 120 min.
