However, the effect of complexions features (e.g., crystalline orientation, crystalline structure and amorphous composition) on the plastic deformation remains inadequately investigated, and the correlation with the plastic transmission and mechanical response has not been fully established. Here, using atomistic simulations, we elucidate the different complexions-dominated plastic transmission and mechanical response. Complexions can alter the preferred slip system of dislocation nucleation, depending on the Schmid factor and interface structure. After nucleation, the dislocation density exhibits an inverse correlation with the stress magnitude, because the number of dislocations influences the initiation of plastic deformation and determines the stress release. For crystalline complexions with different structures and orientations, the ability of dislocation transmission is mainly dependent on the continuity of the slip system. The plastic transmission can easily proceed and exhibits relatively low flow stress when the slip system is well-aligned. In the case of amorphous complexions with different compositions, compositional variations impact the atomic percentage of shear transformation zones after loading, resulting in different magnitudes of plastic deformation. When smaller plastic deformation is produced, less stress can be released contributing to higher flow stress. These findings reveal the role of the complexions on plasticity behavior and provide valuable insights for the design of nanolayered composites.展开更多

This study pioneers the dissimilar joining of VCoNi-MEA and 17–4 precipitation hardening stainless steel (17–4PH STS) using state-of-the-art green laser beam welding (LBW). To evaluate and optimize the experimental parameters, two welding speeds (200 and 300 mm/s) along with post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) were incorporated. High-quality welded joints with a single-phase face-centered cubic (FCC) structure in the fusion zone (FZ), minimal precipitates (< 1.6 %), and no visible cracks were successfully created. The LBW process demonstrated effective low-heat input characteristics, evident from a considerably narrow heat-affected zone (HAZ). Control over FZ width and grain size was achieved, measuring 600 and 112 µm at low welding speed and 250 and 49 µm at high welding speed, respectively, significantly lower than previous studies. A remarkably high yield strength (YS) of ∼620 MPa and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) up to 845 MPa were observed in the as-welded conditions, improving to ∼645 and 875 MPa, respectively, after PWHT. This enhancement in mechanical properties is primarily attributed to lattice friction induced by V addition. PWHT also improved joint ductility, increasing from 3.5 % to 8.6 % (low-speed) and from 6.3 % to 9.2 % (high-speed). The reduction in crystallographic orientation achieved using a higher welding speed and PWHT emerged as a major reason for improved mechanical properties. Slip-based deformation mechanisms dominated across all conditions, featuring crystallographically aligned slip bands. Interactions between existing and additional slip bands formed a dense dislocation network crucial for enhanced elongation after PWHT. Thermodynamic parameters elucidating phase stability in the observed FZs and contributions to superior YS were calculated and comprehensively discussed.展开更多

文摘Under external disturbances,the shear mechanical responses and debonding failure mechanisms at anisotropic interfaces of anchoring system composed of multiphase media are inherently difficult to characterize due to the concealment nature of interfacial interactions.This study establishes an equivalent shear model for a bolt-resin-rock anchoring system and conducts direct shear tests under dynamic normal load(DNL)boundary from both laboratory experiments and discrete element method(DEM)simulations.The research investigates the influence of normal dynamic load amplitude(An)and rock type on shear strength parameters,elucidating the evolutionary characteristics and underlying mechanisms of shear load and normal displacement fluctuations induced by cyclic normal loading,with maximum shear load decreasing by 36.81%to 46.94%as An increases from 10%to 70%when rock type varies from coal to limestone.Through analysis of strain field evolution,the critical impact of rock type on localization of shear failure surface is revealed,with systematic summarization of differentiated wear characteristics,failure modes,and key controlling factors associated with shear failure surface.Mesoscopic investigations enabled by DEM simulations uncover the nonuniform distribution of contact force chains within the material matrix and across the anisotropic interfaces under various DNL boundaries,clarify rock type dependent crack propagation pathways,and quantitatively assess the damage extent of shear failure surface,with the anisotropic interface damage factor increasing from 34.9%to 56.6%as An rises from 10%to 70%,and decreasing from 49.6%to 23.4%as rock type varies from coal to limestone.

文摘Triply periodic minimal surfaces(TPMS)are structures with smooth surfaces and excellent energy absorption properties.Combining new functional materials,such as shape memory alloys,with TPMS structures provides a novel and promising research field.In this study,three TPMS structures(Gyroid,Diamond,and Primitive)of Cu-11.85Al-3.2Mn-0.1Ti alloy were printed by laser powder bed fusion,which is favorable for the fabrication of complex structures.The manufacturing fidelity,mechanical response,and superelastic properties of the three structures were investigated.Stress distributions in the three structures during compression were analyzed by finite element(FE)simulation.The three structures were equipped with high-quality,glossy surfaces and uniform pores.However,due to powder adhesion and forming steps,there were volumetric errors and dimensional deviations between the samples and the CAD models.The errors were within 1.6%for the Gyroid and Diamond structures.The dimensional deviations at the nodes in the three structures were less than 0.09 mm.The microstructures of all structures wereβ1´martensite,consistent with the cubic sample.Experimental results of compression showed that the structures underwent a layer-by-layer compression failure mode,and the Primitive structures exhibited a more pronounced oscillatory process.The Diamond structures showed the highest first fracture stress and strain of 164.67 MPa and 13.89%,respectively.It also possessed the lowest yield strength(61.97 MPa)and the best energy absorption properties(7.6 MJ/m3).Through the deformation analysis,the Gyroid and Diamond structures were found to fracture at a 45°direction,while the Primitive structures fractured horizontally.These findings were consistent with the results obtained from the FE simulation,which showed equivalent stress distributions.After applying various pre-strains,the Diamond structures displayed the highest superelastic strain of up to 3.53%.The superelastic recovery of all samples ranged from 63.5%to 71.5%.

文摘High-entropy alloys(HEA)are novel materials obtained by introducing chemical disorder through mixing multiple-principal components,performing rather attractive features together with charming and exceptional properties in comparison with traditional alloys.However,the trade-off relationship is still present between strength and ductility in HEAs,significantly limiting the practical and wide application of HEAs.Moreover,the preparation of HEAs by trial-and-error method is time-consuming and resource-wasting,hindering the high-speed and high-quality development of HEAs.Herein,the primary objective of this work is to summarize the latest advancements in HEAs,focusing on methods for predicting phase structures and the factors influencing mechanical properties.Additionally,strengthening and toughening strategies for HEAs are highlighted,thus maximizing their application potential.Besides,challenges and future investigation direction of HEAs are also identified and proposed.

文摘To investigate the mechanical response during failure and the impact tendency characteristics of gangue-coal combined structure,uniaxial compression tests were conducted on nine groups of combined structures,each with varying gangue thicknesses and positions.The response patterns of compressive strength,elastic modulus,pre-peak accumulated energy,elastic energy index,and impact energy index were systematically analyzed.Furthermore,a new index for evaluating the impact tendency of gangue-containing coal was proposed,and its effectiveness was verified.The findings are as follows:(1)As the gangue thickness increases,both the compressive strength and the pre-peak energy of the combined structure decrease,whereas the elastic modulus increases accordingly.When the gangue is located in the lower middle position,the combined structure exhibits the lowest compressive strength and elastic modulus but the highest pre peak energy.(2)As the gangue shifts toward the middle position of the combined structure,the failure mode gradually transitions from comple te“crushing”failure to an incomplete“point-type”failure.As gangue thickness further increases,the failure region evolves from overall failure to localized failure,with the degree of failure shifting from complete to incomplete.The K_(crc)value corresponding to“crushing”complete failure is higher and has a stronger impact tendency compared to“point-type”incomplete failure.(3)The proposed comprehensive impact instability evaluation index K_(crc)for the gangue-coal combined structure has shown a significant positive correlation with compressive strength(R_(c))and impact energy index(K_(E)),further verifyi ng its rationality in comprehensively assessing the impact tendency of gangue-containing coal bodies.Applying this index to the evaluation of gangue-containing coal seams provides a more accurate reflection of their impact tendency compared with the residual energy index,which has a wide range of potential applications and practical significance.

文摘Thermodynamically stable and ultra-thin “phase” at the interface, known as complexions, can significantly improve the mechanical properties of nanolayered composites. However, the effect of complexions features (e.g., crystalline orientation, crystalline structure and amorphous composition) on the plastic deformation remains inadequately investigated, and the correlation with the plastic transmission and mechanical response has not been fully established. Here, using atomistic simulations, we elucidate the different complexions-dominated plastic transmission and mechanical response. Complexions can alter the preferred slip system of dislocation nucleation, depending on the Schmid factor and interface structure. After nucleation, the dislocation density exhibits an inverse correlation with the stress magnitude, because the number of dislocations influences the initiation of plastic deformation and determines the stress release. For crystalline complexions with different structures and orientations, the ability of dislocation transmission is mainly dependent on the continuity of the slip system. The plastic transmission can easily proceed and exhibits relatively low flow stress when the slip system is well-aligned. In the case of amorphous complexions with different compositions, compositional variations impact the atomic percentage of shear transformation zones after loading, resulting in different magnitudes of plastic deformation. When smaller plastic deformation is produced, less stress can be released contributing to higher flow stress. These findings reveal the role of the complexions on plasticity behavior and provide valuable insights for the design of nanolayered composites.

文摘Rock-like specimens containing a joint with different inclination angles and roughness were prepared using 3D printing technology.Then,true triaxial compression loading experiments were conducted on those jointed specimens.The increase in roughness leads to an increase in the axial strength and peak strain.With the increasing inclination angle,the axial strength initially decreases from 30°to 60°and then increases from 60°to 90°.While the peak strain first rises from 30°to 45°and then declines from 45°to 90°.The variation in failure mode results from differences in lateral stress on the joints under different strike directions.Specimens with joint strike parallel to the intermediate principal stress predominantly showed matrix or matrix-joint mixed shear failure,whereas those parallel to the minimum principal stress exhibited matrix shear failure.The analysis results of acoustic emission signals indicate the crack number and shear crack percentage increase with the increasing roughness and first decrease(30°to 60°),then increase(60°to 90°)with the increasing inclination angle.The research results can provide some guidance for the design and support of underground engineering with jointed surrounding rock.
文摘The reaction of Mg^(2+)and 5-{1,3-dioxo-1H-benzo[de]isoquinolin-2(3H)-yl}terephthalic acid(H_(2)L)leads to two metal-organic frameworks,[Mg(L)(DMF)_(2)(H_(2)O)_(2)]_(2)·5DMF·2H_(2)O(1)with a 1D structure and[Mg_(2)(L)_(2)(DMSO)_(3)(H_(2)O)](2)with a 2D(4,4)-net structure.Interestingly,the two compounds exhibit distinct luminescent responses to external mechanical stimuli.1 exhibited exceptional resistance mechanical chromic luminescence(RMCL),which can be attributed to the predominant hydrogen bonds and the presence of high-boiling-point solvent molecules within its structure.2 had a reversible MCL property,which can be attributed to the dominantπ-πweak interactions,coupled with the reversible destruction/restoration of its crystallinity under grinding/fumigation.CCDC:2410963,1;2410964,2.

文摘Biomechanical study of the visual system by ocular response analyzer investigates the inter-structural biological relationships,mechanics,and function of the visual system.This review aimed to investigate the changes in corneal biomechanical parameters with age and sex.The articles published in PubMed between 2000 and 2021 were investigated and critiqued,and valid scientific evidence was collected,reviewed and concluded according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.Most studies showed that corneal biomechanical changes occur infrequently in children up to the age of 20y,and with increasing age and wider age range,there was a significant decrease in corneal biomechanical indices,especially corneal hysteresis.In children and adults,most studies have shown that these biomechanical indicators,especially corneal resistance factor,were higher in females.Although hormonal changes may contribute to this finding,the role of axial length and other biometric indicators should not be ignored.The axial length,the intraocular pressure,and the corneal thickness are other factors associated with biomechanical parameters that should be taken into account in clinical diagnosis and management especially for patients undergoing refractive surgery as well as keratoconus patients.

文摘The mainstream method for extracting shale gas involves hydraulic fracturing to create fracture networks.However,as extraction depth increases,notable issues such as rapid production decline,low recovery rates,high water consumption,and resource waste become apparent.Identifying new and efficient auxiliary rock-breaking technologies is crucial for overcoming these challenges.The laser,successfully utilized in industrial production,medical treatment,and technological research,offers unique features such as good directionality,coherence,and high energy density,providing novel possibilities for addressing the limitations of existing deep reservoir transformation.This research focuses on a novel laser-assisted rock-breaking technology,with shale featuring different bedding angles as the subject of investigation.The investigation methodically explored how shale responded to thermal fracture at high temperatures when exposed to laser irradiation with different spot diameter.It investigates the spatiotemporal evolution characteristics of the shale temperature field under laser irradiation,the propagation features of cracks on shale surface,and the physicochemical fracture mechanisms.The research yields the following results:(1)The region of thermal influence of the irradiation surface can be divided into three regions based on the change of rise curve of temperature in the shale surface.(2)Based on the scanning electron microscopy(SEM)testing,combined with the macroscopic and microscopic morphological characteristics of shale fracture surfaces,it reveals significantly distinct zoning characteristics in the roughness of the rock sample’s fracture surfaces after laser irradiation.(3)The thermal fracturing process of shale under laser irradiation involves chemical reactions of constituent minerals and stress generated by the thermal expansion of shale oil in the reservoir.(4)The damage and fracture of shale under the irradiation of laser show significant bedding effect,and there are three modes of rock sample failure:Pattern T(thermal failure),Pattern T-B(thermal and bedding synergistic failure),and Pattern B(bedding failure).The research findings presented in this article serve as a foundation and reference for the theory and technology of laser-assisted shale gas extraction.

文摘Unveiling the underlying physical mechanisms governing the fracture of brittle rocks is imperative for preventing rockbursts.The novelty of this study lies in the analysis of the dynamic response process of rock three-dimensional(3D)deformation under true triaxial stress,and the surge behavior of timedependent multifractal spectrum has been successfully used to warn of progressive failure inside the rock.Firstly,this study analyzed the dynamic adjustment trajectory of rock deformation,specifically lateral strain,within the framework of the Poisson effect.This analysis highlighted the intricate dependence of rock mechanical properties on the intermediate principal stress.Secondly,by defining the crack interval function(ICF),this study compared the disparities between the two crack growth stages(strengthening stage and weakening stage)under varying stress levels.It was found that the fracture activity of granite system has significant multifractal characteristics.Notably,the multifractal spectrum emerges as a valuable tool for characterizing the distinct fracture properties of rocks,encompassing both the crack scale and the associated energy.Finally,a quantitative criterion grounded in the multifractal parameters of the acoustic emission(AE)time series was formulated,and it indicates that the abrupt changes observed in the time-dependent fractal spectra can serve as precursor indicators for the progressive development of rockbursts.

文摘Repairing the Ni-based superalloy component remains challenging due to the limited understanding of the role of the defect’s morphology on microstructure and related deformation responses.To address this issue,GH4099 Ni-based superalloy plate with U-shaped and V-shaped grooves was prepared and repaired by laser-directed energy deposition method using GH4099 powders.Both grooves exhibit three similar regions at the repaired interphase,which are the base metal region with equiaxed grains,repaired region with columnar or elongated equiaxed grains,and a transition region in between.High-temperature gradient in the repaired region induced a high density of substructures,and the repaired region in U-shaped grooves has an even higher temperature gradient due to fewer passes of the melted metal,which induces more metallic carbides in the subgrain boundaries and improves the tensile strength of the repaired samples.However,due to the steep side walls,local vortex might form at the bottom corner of the U-shaped groove,leaving macroscale holes and micro-cracks there.Such defects will decrease the alloy’s ductility.The relationship among groove morphology-macro-and microstructure-mechanical properties is then established,which suggesting the preferred V-shaped groove considering the flatter sidewall and more passes induced near equilibrium microstructure.

文摘The backfill should keep stable in the primary stope when mining an adjacent secondary stope in subsequent open stoping mining methods,and the large-size mined-out area is usually backfilled by multiple backfilling before the recovery of a secondary stope,resulting in a layered structure of backfill in stope.Therefore,it is significant to investigate the deformation responses and mechanical properties of stratified cemented tailings backfill(SCTB)with different layer structures to remain self-standing as an artificial pillar in the primary stope.The current work examined the effects of enhance layer position(1/3,1/2,and 2/3)and thickness ratio(0,0.1,0.2,and 0.3)on the mechanical properties,deformation,energy evolution,microstructures,and failure modes of SCTB.The results demonstrate that the incorporation of an enhance layer significantly strengthens the deformation and strength of SCTB.Under a confining pressure of 50 kPa,the peak deviatoric stress rises from 525.6 to 560.3,597.1,and 790.5 kPa as the thickness ratio of enhance layer is increased from 0 to 0.1,0.2,and 0.3,representing a significant increase of 6.6%,13.6%,and 50.4%.As the confining pressure increases,the slopes of the curves in the elastic stage become steep,and the plastic phase is extended accordingly.Additionally,the incorporation of the enhance layer significantly improves the energy storage linit of SCTB specimen.As the thickness ratio of the enhance layer increases from 0 to 0.1,0.2,and 0.3,the elastic energy rises from 0.54 to 0.67,0.84,and 1.00 MJ·m^(-3),representing a significant increase of 24.1%,55.6%,and 85.2%.The internal friction angles and cohesions of the SCTB specimens are higher than those of the CTB specimens,however,the cohesion is more susceptible to enhance layer position and thickness ratio than the internal friction angle.The failure style of the SCTB specimen changes from shear failure to splitting bulging failure and shear bulging failure with the presence of an enhance layer.The crack propagation path is significantly blocked by the enhance layer.The findings are of great significance to the application and stability of the SCTB in subsequent stoping backfilling mines.

文摘This study investigated the mechanical responses and debonding mechanisms of a bolt-resin-rock composite anchoring sys-tem subjected to cyclic shear loading.A systematic analysis was conducted on the effects of the initial normal load(Fsd),cyclic shear dis-placement amplitude(ud),frequency(f),and rock type on the shear load,normal displacement,shear wear characteristics,and strain field evolution.The experimental results showed that as Fsd increased from 7.5 to 120 kN,both the peak and residual shear loads exhibited in-creasing trends,with increments ranging from 1.98%to 35.25%and from 32.09%to 86.74%,respectively.The maximum shear load of each cycle declined over the cyclic shear cycles,with the rate of decrease slowing and stabilizing,indicating that shear wear primarily oc-curred at the initial cyclic shear stage.During cyclic shearing,the normal displacement decreased spirally with the shear displacement,im-plying continuous shear contraction.The spiral curves display sparse upwards and dense downward trends,with later cycles dominated by dynamic sliding along the pre-existing shear rupture surface,which is particularly evident in coal.The bearing capacity of the anchoring system varies with the rock type and is governed by the coal strength in coal,resin-rock bonding in sandstone#1 and sandstone#2,com-bined resin strength and resin-rock bonding in sandstone#3(sandstone#1,sandstone#2 and sandstone#3,increasing strength order),and resin strength and bolt-resin bonding in limestone.Cyclic shear loading induces anisotropic interfacial degradation,characterized by es-calating strain concentrations and predominant resin-rock interface debonding,with the damage severity modulated by the rock type.

文摘In engineering structures, the application of advanced alloys, such as the VCoNi medium-entropy alloy (VCoNi-MEA), with remarkable tensile strength (> 1 GPa) and superior ductility necessitates the employment of dissimilar joints. This study pioneers the dissimilar joining of VCoNi-MEA and 17–4 precipitation hardening stainless steel (17–4PH STS) using state-of-the-art green laser beam welding (LBW). To evaluate and optimize the experimental parameters, two welding speeds (200 and 300 mm/s) along with post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) were incorporated. High-quality welded joints with a single-phase face-centered cubic (FCC) structure in the fusion zone (FZ), minimal precipitates (< 1.6 %), and no visible cracks were successfully created. The LBW process demonstrated effective low-heat input characteristics, evident from a considerably narrow heat-affected zone (HAZ). Control over FZ width and grain size was achieved, measuring 600 and 112 µm at low welding speed and 250 and 49 µm at high welding speed, respectively, significantly lower than previous studies. A remarkably high yield strength (YS) of ∼620 MPa and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) up to 845 MPa were observed in the as-welded conditions, improving to ∼645 and 875 MPa, respectively, after PWHT. This enhancement in mechanical properties is primarily attributed to lattice friction induced by V addition. PWHT also improved joint ductility, increasing from 3.5 % to 8.6 % (low-speed) and from 6.3 % to 9.2 % (high-speed). The reduction in crystallographic orientation achieved using a higher welding speed and PWHT emerged as a major reason for improved mechanical properties. Slip-based deformation mechanisms dominated across all conditions, featuring crystallographically aligned slip bands. Interactions between existing and additional slip bands formed a dense dislocation network crucial for enhanced elongation after PWHT. Thermodynamic parameters elucidating phase stability in the observed FZs and contributions to superior YS were calculated and comprehensively discussed.

文摘BACKGROUND Sorafenib has been the conventional treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)since 2008.While radiological complete responses are extremely rare,improved supportive care and multidisciplinary approaches in clinical practice may explain the recent increase in case reports and retrospective series documenting such responses.CASE SUMMARY This case series describes 3 patients with advanced HCC who achieved durable complete responses using first-line sorafenib therapy,even in the presence of portal vein thrombosis or extrahepatic spread,and highlights the potential for sustained remission in selected patients.Dermatologic toxicity and non-viral etiology may correlate with favorable outcomes;however,reliable predictive biomarkers for sorafenib response are lacking.CONCLUSION Future research into the etiology and molecular differences in HCC is necessary to develop more personalized therapy options.
