The processing maps at different strains were then constructed based on the dynamic materials model, and the hot compression process parameters and deformation mechanism were optimized and analyzed, respectively. The results show that the processing maps exhibit two domains with a high efficiency of power dissipation and a flow instability domain with a less efficiency of power dissipation. The types of domains were characterized by convergence and divergence of the efficiency of power dissipation, respectively. The convergent domain in a+fl phase field is at the temperature of 950-990 ℃ and the strain rate of 0.001-0.01 s^-1, which correspond to a better hot compression process window of α+β phase field. The peak of efficiency of power dissipation in α+β phase field is at 950 ℃ and 0.001 s 1, which correspond to the best hot compression process parameters of α+β phase field. The convergent domain in β phase field is at the temperature of 1020-1080 ℃ and the strain rate of 0.001-0.1 s^-l, which correspond to a better hot compression process window of β phase field. The peak of efficiency of power dissipation in ℃ phase field occurs at 1050 ℃ over the strain rates from 0.001 s^-1 to 0.01 s^-1, which correspond to the best hot compression process parameters of ,8 phase field. The divergence domain occurs at the strain rates above 0.5 s^-1 and in all the tested temperature range, which correspond to flow instability that is manifested as flow localization and indicated by the flow softening phenomenon in stress-- strain curves. The deformation mechanisms of the optimized hot compression process windows in a+β and β phase fields are identified to be spheroidizing and dynamic recrystallizing controlled by self-diffusion mechanism, respectively. The microstructure observation of the deformed specimens in different domains matches very well with the optimized results.展开更多

The HIC test was conducted in hydrogen sulfide (H2S)-saturated solution. The results showed that the steels with F+B and F+M/A dual-phase microstructures had both higher deformability and better HIC resistance, whereas the harder martensite phase in F+M microstructure was responsible for the worst HIC resistance. The band-like hard phase in dual-phase mi- crostructure was believed to lead to increasing susceptibility to HIC.展开更多

In practice, however, the measuring accuracy of D-InSAR at X-band has been seriously affected by some factors, e.g., decorrelation and high deformation gradient. In this work, the monitoring capability of D-InSAR for coal-mining subsidence is evaluated by using SAR data acquired by TerrraSAR-X system. The SAR image registration method for low coherence image pairs, the denoising phase filter for high noise level interferogram and atmospheric effects mitigation method are the key technical aspects which directly influence the measurement results of D-InSAR at X-band. Thus, a robust image registration method, an improved phase filter method and an atmospheric effects mitigation method are proposed in this paper. The proposed image registration method successfully achieves InSAR coregistration, while the amplitude cross-correlation cannot properly coregister low coherence SAR image pairs. Moreover, the time complexity of the proposed image registration method is obviously slighter than that of the Singular Value Decomposition(SVD) method. The comparing experiment results and the unwrapping phase results show that the improved Goldstein filter is more effective than the original Goldstein filter in noise elimination. The atmospheric influence correction experiment results show that the land subsidence areas with atmospheric influence correction are more clarified than that of without atmospheric influence correction. In summary, the presented methods directly improved the measurement results of D-InSAR at X-band.展开更多

The relationship between deformation resistance and deformation degree, deformation temperature and deformation rate was revealed. The results show that when the deformation degree is less than 0.2, the deformation resistance increases by about 70 to 200 MPa, while the deformation degree varied between 0.2 and 0.4, the deformation resist- ance increases by about 30--40 MPa, when the deformation degree is larger than 0.4, the deformation resistance in- creases slowly, some become stable gradually. The influence of deformation temperature on deformation resistance is larger, and deformation resistance at higher temperature is about 160 MPa smaller than at lower temperature. Higher deformation rate leads to larger deformation resistance. The deformation resistance increases about 70 to 110 MPa with the increase of the deformation rate. A new and highly accurate mathematical model of the steel was established to describe the deformation behavior during rolling.展开更多

The experimental results showed that high strain rate and large deformation could induce dynamic recrystallization.Based on dislocation dynamics and grain orientation change enhanced by plastic deformation,a model for the recrystallization process is developed. The model is used to explain the ultra fine grains which are formed at a temperature still much lower than that for the conventional recrystallization展开更多

The sub structures,recrystallized nuclei, as well as the dynamic precipitation were also studied and analyzed. The relationship between recrystallized structures and dynamic precipitation was discussed. The results showed that the deformed structures in W9Mo3Cr4V steel are more complicated than those in low alloy steels. Because W9Mo3Cr4V steel is a high speed steel, there are a large number of residual carbides on the matrix. Also, much dynamic precipitating carbides will precipitate during deformation at high temperature.展开更多

The short time creep tests were carried out under different but constant stresses. The obtained data of ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, creep curves and effects of elevated temperatures on mechanical properties were presented. For a selected rheological model, material parameters were obtained. As a justification, such rheological model is implemented in the finite element procedure for an uniaxially stressed specimen in selected environmental conditions.展开更多

文摘The serrated phenomena of the quasicrystalline phase reinforced Mg-4%Li-6%Zn-1.2%Y alloy after the extrusion,solid solution treatment and aged treatment have been investigated at different temperatures.The result shows that when the temperature is above 100℃,the serrated phenomenon becomes weak and all the serrated amplitudes are lower than 1 MPa.Among them,the serrated amplitude of samples in aged condition is the lowest and the value is only 0.1-0.2 MPa.The underneath mechanism for the lower plastic instability at higher temperature(≥100℃)can be ascribed to the weak pining effect of solute atoms on the movement of dislocation and release of the pile-up dislocations.

文摘Cylindrical samples of Ni-based GH4037 alloy were compressed at solid temperatures(1200,1250 and 1300℃) and semi-solid temperatures(1340,1350,1360,1370 and 1380℃) with different strain rates of 0.01,0.1 and 1 s-1.High temperature deformation behavior and microstructure evolution of GH4037 alloy were investigated.The results indicated that flow stress decreased rapidly at semi-solid temperatures compared to that at solid temperatures.Besides,the flow stress continued to increase after reaching the initial peak stress at semi-solid temperatures when the strain rate was 1 s-1.With increasing the deformation temperature,the size of initial solid grains and recrystallized grains increased.At semi-solid temperatures,the grains were equiaxed,and liquid phase existed at the grain boundaries and inside the grains.Discontinuous dynamic recrystallization(DDRX) characterized by grain boundary bulging was the main nucleation mechanism for GH4037 alloy.

文摘The effect of the grain size on the tensile properties and deformation mechanisms of a nonequiatomic Fe(41)Mn(25)Ni(24)Co8 Cr2 high-entropy alloy was studied in the temperature range between 298 and 1173 K by preparing the samples with three different grain sizes through severe plastic deformation and subsequent annealing:ultrafine(sub)grain size(≤0.5μm),8.1μm and 590.2μm.In the temperature between 298 and773 K,the material with the large grain size of 590.2μm exhibited the largest tensile ductility(57%-82%)due to its high strain hardening associated with mechanical twinning,but it exhibited the lowest strength due to its large grain size.The material with the ultrafine(sub)grain size exhibited the lowest tensile ductility(3%-7%)due to a greatly reduced strain hardening ability after severe plastic deformation,but it exhibited the highest strength due to the dislocation strengthening and grain refinement strengthening.At tensile testing at temperatures above 973 K,recrystallization occurred in the material with the ultrafine(sub)grains during the sample heating and holding stage,leading to the formation of fine and equiaxed grains with the sizes of 6.8-13.5μm.The deformation behavior of the Fe(41)Mn(25)Ni(24)Co8 Cr2 with different grain sizes in the high temperature range between 973 and 1173 K,where pseudosteady-state flow was attained in the stress-strain curves,could be explained by considering the simultaneous contribution of grain boundary sliding and dislocation-climb creep to total plastic flow.The activation energies for plastic flow for the materials with different grain sizes were similar as^199 kJ/mol.In predicting the deformation mechanism,it was important to consider the change in grain size by rapid grain growth or recrystallization during the sample heating and holding stage because grain boundary sliding is a grain-size-dependent deformation mechanism.The sample with the ultrafine(sub)grains exhibited the large tensile elongations of 30%-85%due to its high strain rate sensitivity,m(0.1-0.5)at temperatures of973-1173 K.The material with the large grain size of 590.2μm exhibited the very small elongations of0.2%-8%due to its small m values(0.1-0.2)and occurrence of brittle intergranular fracture at the early stage of plastic deformation.

文摘To control the superplastic flow and fracture and examine the variation in deformation energy,the stress and grain size of Mg-7.28Li-2.19Al-0.091Y alloy were obtained using tensile testing and microstructure quantification,and new high temperature deformation energy models were established.Results show that the grain interior deformation energy increases with increasing the strain rate and decreases with increasing the temperature.The variation in the grain boundary deformation energy is opposite to that in the grain interior deformation energy.At a given temperature,critical cavity nucleation energy decreases with increasing strain rate and cavity nucleation becomes easy,whereas at a given strain rate,critical cavity nucleation energy increases with increasing temperature and cavity nucleation becomes difficult.The newly established models of the critical cavity nucleation radius and energy provide a way for predicting the initiation of microcrack and improving the service life of the forming parts.
文摘A low carbon Nb-microalloyed high deformability pipeline steel with X100 grade has been processed by TMCP and followed two-stage cooling process.The microstructure is characterized by ferrite/bainite multiphase.The effective grain size is 1.85μm in average.The volume of ferrite is about 10-15%and the grains sizes are mostly less than 5μm.The bainite consists of granular-bainite and lath-bainite,with M/A islands finely dispersed.The longitudinal tensile yield strength,uniform elongation,yield ratio are 647MPa,7.6%and 0.78,respectively.Ferrite/bainite multiphase have large strain hardenability that resulting high strength and high deformability combination.Precipitation of Nb also improves the strength and uniform deformability by precipitation strengthening and grain refinement.
文摘In theory, land subsidence measurement results with high accuracy can be obtained by using the Differential Interferometry Synthetic Aperture Radar(D-InSAR) at X-band. In practice, however, the measuring accuracy of D-InSAR at X-band has been seriously affected by some factors, e.g., decorrelation and high deformation gradient. In this work, the monitoring capability of D-InSAR for coal-mining subsidence is evaluated by using SAR data acquired by TerrraSAR-X system. The SAR image registration method for low coherence image pairs, the denoising phase filter for high noise level interferogram and atmospheric effects mitigation method are the key technical aspects which directly influence the measurement results of D-InSAR at X-band. Thus, a robust image registration method, an improved phase filter method and an atmospheric effects mitigation method are proposed in this paper. The proposed image registration method successfully achieves InSAR coregistration, while the amplitude cross-correlation cannot properly coregister low coherence SAR image pairs. Moreover, the time complexity of the proposed image registration method is obviously slighter than that of the Singular Value Decomposition(SVD) method. The comparing experiment results and the unwrapping phase results show that the improved Goldstein filter is more effective than the original Goldstein filter in noise elimination. The atmospheric influence correction experiment results show that the land subsidence areas with atmospheric influence correction are more clarified than that of without atmospheric influence correction. In summary, the presented methods directly improved the measurement results of D-InSAR at X-band.

文摘Static recrystallization of a high strain rate compressed Mg-1 Zn(wt.%)alloy was investigated using electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD).A novel 53°1010 structure was observed in the as-deformed alloy,which showed a{1012}-{1012}double twin relationship with the matrix.When the as-deformed alloy was annealed at 200°C,the{1011}compression twins and{1011}-{1012}double twins showed a higher priority to recrystallize.In addition,the coarse{1012}tension twins and their inner double twins were preferentially to recrystallize,while the lenticular tension twins had little impact on the recrystallization.Therefore,obtaining more compression twins or coarse twins instead of lenticular tension twins can be an effective approach to manipulate recrystallization process in deformed Mg alloys.
文摘Previous investigations indicate that the creep resistance of magnesium alloys is proportional to the stability of precipitated intermetallic phases at grain boundaries.These stable intermetallic phases were considered to be effective to suppress the deformation by grain boundary sliding,leading to the improvement of creep properties.Based on this point,adding the alloying elements to form the stable intermetallics with high melting point became a popular way to develop the new creep resistant magnesium alloys.The present investigation,however,shows that the creep properties of binary Mg-Sn alloy are still poor even though the addition of Sn possibly results in the precipitation of thermal stable Mg_(2)Sn at grain boundaries.That means other possible mechanisms function to affect the creep response.It is finally found that the poor creep resistance is attributed to the segregation of Sn at dendritic and grain boundaries.Based on this observation,new approaches to improve the creep resistance are suggested for magnesium alloys because most currently magnesium alloys have the commonality with the Mg-Sn alloys.
文摘A series of trial tests for high deformation(HD)X70 pipeline steel plates were performed in NISCO,and the technical routes as thermal mechanical controlled rolling process(TMCP),TMCP+Quenching(Q)and TMCP+Q&tempering(T)were studied systematically through the plate shape quality,properties and microstructure characters.The results show that problems as plate shape and inhomogeneous microstructures are for finish rolling at low temperature and high cooling rate after the rolling by the route of TMCP.By the route of TMCP+Q,the yield strength(YS)of the trial steels is not sufficient.By the route of TMCP+QT,the YS is enhanced,as well as good toughness and plasticity due to the martensite decomposition at low temperature tempering process,and 4 sheets of HD X70 pipeline steel plates by the route TMCP+QT with superior plate shape quality,microstructure and comprehensive properties were successfully developed in NISCO.

文摘The high temperature deformation behavior of the 9Ni steel has been studied by the Gleeble-3500 tester. The relationship between deformation resistance and deformation degree, deformation temperature and deformation rate was revealed. The results show that when the deformation degree is less than 0.2, the deformation resistance increases by about 70 to 200 MPa, while the deformation degree varied between 0.2 and 0.4, the deformation resist- ance increases by about 30--40 MPa, when the deformation degree is larger than 0.4, the deformation resistance in- creases slowly, some become stable gradually. The influence of deformation temperature on deformation resistance is larger, and deformation resistance at higher temperature is about 160 MPa smaller than at lower temperature. Higher deformation rate leads to larger deformation resistance. The deformation resistance increases about 70 to 110 MPa with the increase of the deformation rate. A new and highly accurate mathematical model of the steel was established to describe the deformation behavior during rolling.
文摘Recrystallized grains, less than 200 nm in diameter were observed in heavily shear zones of a high strength low alloy steel and a Ni-based alloy, and Also grain refinement, less than 3 μm in diameter was made in high purity aluminum by ECAE at ambient temperature. The experimental results showed that high strain rate and large deformation could induce dynamic recrystallization.Based on dislocation dynamics and grain orientation change enhanced by plastic deformation,a model for the recrystallization process is developed. The model is used to explain the ultra fine grains which are formed at a temperature still much lower than that for the conventional recrystallization

文摘With TEM、SEM, various high temperature deformed structures in W9Mo3Cr4V steel were investigated. The sub structures,recrystallized nuclei, as well as the dynamic precipitation were also studied and analyzed. The relationship between recrystallized structures and dynamic precipitation was discussed. The results showed that the deformed structures in W9Mo3Cr4V steel are more complicated than those in low alloy steels. Because W9Mo3Cr4V steel is a high speed steel, there are a large number of residual carbides on the matrix. Also, much dynamic precipitating carbides will precipitate during deformation at high temperature.

文摘This paper presents an experimental investigation on an AISI 316L stainless steel regarding mechanical properties and short uniaxial creep tests at elevated temperatures. The short time creep tests were carried out under different but constant stresses. The obtained data of ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, creep curves and effects of elevated temperatures on mechanical properties were presented. For a selected rheological model, material parameters were obtained. As a justification, such rheological model is implemented in the finite element procedure for an uniaxially stressed specimen in selected environmental conditions.
