The effect of synthesis temperature on phase composition and microstructure was investigated. Low-carbon MgO-C refractories were prepared by using the synthesized Al2O3-SiC composite as additive. The effect of its addition on the slag penetration and corrosion resistance as well as oxidation resistance of the refractories was investigated, and the slag resistance and oxidation resistance mechanisms of the Al2O3-SiC composite were also discussed. The results show that the synthesis temperature has a great influence on preparation of Al2O3-SiC composite. The Al2O3-SiC composite can be synthesized at 1873-1973 K under argon atmosphere, with pyrophyllite and natural graphite as raw materials, and particle sizes of the composite synthesized at 1973 K are mainly distributed as 1-2 μm.

Especially in recent years, with the rapid development of composite additive manufacturing technology, the design optimization of variable stiffness of fiber-reinforced composite laminates has attracted widespread attention from scholars and industry. In these aerospace composite structures, numerous cutout panels and shells serve as access points for maintaining electrical, fuel, and hydraulic systems. The traditional fiber-reinforced composite laminate subtractive drilling manufacturing inevitably faces the problems of interlayer delamination, fiber fracture, and burr of the laminate. Continuous fiber additive manufacturing technology offers the potential for integrated design optimization and manufacturing with high structural performance. Considering the integration of design and manufacturability in continuous fiber additive manufacturing, the paper proposes linear and nonlinear filtering strategies based on the Normal Distribution Fiber Optimization (NDFO) material interpolation scheme to overcome the challenge of discrete fiber optimization results, which are difficult to apply directly to continuous fiber additive manufacturing. With minimizing structural compliance as the objective function, the proposed approach provides a strategy to achieve continuity of discrete fiber paths in the variable stiffness design optimization of composite laminates with regular and irregular holes. In the variable stiffness design optimization model, the number of candidate fiber laying angles in the NDFO material interpolation scheme is considered as design variable. The sensitivity information of structural compliance with respect to the number of candidate fiber laying angles is obtained using the analytical sensitivity analysis method. Based on the proposed variable stiffness design optimization method for complex perforated composite laminates, the numerical examples consider the variable stiffness design optimization of typical non-perforated and perforated composite laminates with circular, square, and irregular holes, and systematically discuss the number of candidate discrete fiber laying angles, discrete fiber continuous filtering strategies, and filter radius on structural compliance, continuity, and manufacturability. The optimized discrete fiber angles of variable stiffness laminates are converted into continuous fiber laying paths using a streamlined process for continuous fiber additive manufacturing. Meanwhile, the optimized non-perforated and perforated MBB beams after discrete fiber continuous treatment, are manufactured using continuous fiber co-extrusion additive manufacturing technology to verify the effectiveness of the variable stiffness fiber optimization framework proposed in this paper.展开更多

The effect of its addition on the slag penetration and corrosion resistance as well as oxidation resistance of the refractories was investigated, and the slag resistance and oxidation resistance mechanisms of the Al2O3-SiC composite were also discussed. The results show that the synthesis temperature has a great influence on preparation of Al2O3-SiC composite. The Al2O3-SiC composite can be synthesized at 1873-1973 K under argon atmosphere, with pyrophyllite and natural graphite as raw materials, and particle sizes of the composite synthesized at 1973 K are mainly distributed as 1-2 μm. The slag penetration and corrosion resistance of low-carbon M80-C refractories can be remarkably improved by adding the synthesized Al2O3-SiC composite, and the oxidation resistance has an improvement to some extent. The increase of slag viscosity and the formation of MgAl2O4 can effectively inhibit the slag penetration and corrosion for the refractories.

文摘Zirconium-titanium-steel composite plate with the size of 2500 mm×7800 mm×(3+0.7+22)mm was prepared by explosive welding+rolling method,and its properties were analyzed by ultrasonic nondestructive testing,phased array waveform shape,interface structure shape,electronic scanning,and mechanical property testing.Results show that the rolling temperature of zirconiumtitanium complex should be controlled at 760°C,and the rolling reduction of each pass should be controlled at 10%–25%.The explosive velocity to prepare zirconium-titanium-steel composite plates should be controlled at 2450–2500 m/s,the density should be 0.78 g/cm3,the stand-off height should be 12 mm,and the explosive height of Zone A and Zone B should be 45–50 mm.Explosive welding combined with rolling method reduces the impact of explosive welding and multiple heat treatment on material properties.Meanwhile,the problems of surface wrinkling and cracking,which occur during the preparation process of large-sized zirconiumtitanium-steel composite plate,can be solved.

文摘SiC_(f)/SiC ceramic matrix composites(SiC_(f)/SiC composites)are difficult to drill small holes due to their heterogeneity,high hardness,and low electrical conductivity.In order to solve the difficulties of poor quality and low efficiency when drilling small holes,a novel femtosecond laser rotary drilling(FLRD)technique is proposed.Beam kinematic paths and experimental studies were carried out to analyze the effects of processing parameters on the drilling results in the two-step drilling process.In the through-hole drilling stage,the material removal rate increases with increasing laser power,decreasing feed speed and decreasing pitch.As for the finishing stage of drilling,the exit diameter increased with increasing laser power and decreasing feed speed.The drilling parameters were selected by taking the processing efficiency of through-hole and the quality of finished hole as the constraint criteria.Holes with a diameter of 500μm were drilled using FLRD in 3 mm thick SiC_(f)/SiC composites with a drilling time<150 s.The hole aspect ratio was 6,the taper<0.2°,and there was no significant thermal damage at the orifice or the wall of the hole.The FLRD provides a solution for precision machining of small holes in difficult-to-machine materials by offering the advantages of high processing quality and short drilling times.
文摘The grain growing dynamics including the growing process, the growing exponent and the growing activation energy is obtained for the MgO-CaO composite ceramics with the additions of Fe2O3, CeO2 and/or ZrO2 as fluxes by measuring the size of grains with the method of Straight Line Across. The results show that all of the additions, in which Fe2O3 is the strongest, have notable effects on the grain growing dynamics by reducing the growing activation energy and promoting the grain growing. The research gives a good reference for the additions of fluxes to the matrix of ceramic filter.

文摘Computational solid mechanics has become an indispensable approach in engineering,and numerical investigation of fracturing in composites is essential,as composites are widely used in structural applications.Crack evolution in composites is the path to elucidating the relationship between microstructures and fracture performance,but crack-based finite-element methods are computationally expensive and time-consuming,which limits their application in computation-intensive scenarios.Consequently,this study proposes a deep learning framework called Crack-Net for instant prediction of the dynamic crack growth process,as well as its strain-stress curve.Specifically,Crack-Net introduces an implicit constraint technique,which incorporates the relationship between crack evolution and stress response into the network architecture.This technique substantially reduces data requirements while improving predictive accuracy.The transfer learning technique enables Crack-Net to handle composite materials with reinforcements of different strengths.Trained on high-accuracy fracture development datasets from phase field simulations,the proposed framework is capable of tackling intricate scenarios,involving materials with diverse interfaces,varying initial conditions,and the intricate elastoplastic fracture process.The proposed Crack-Net holds great promise for practical applications in engineering and materials science,in which accurate and efficient fracture prediction is crucial for optimizing material performance and microstructural design.

文摘The preparation of carbon-based electromagnetic wave(EMW)absorbers possessing thin matching thickness,wide absorption bandwidth,strong absorption intensity,and low filling ratio remains a huge challenge.Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)are ideal self-sacrificing templates for the construction of carbon-based EMW absorbers.In this work,bimetallic FeMn-MOF-derived MnFe_(2)O_(4)/C/graphene composites were fabricated via a two-step route of solvothermal reaction and the following pyrolysis treatment.The results re-veal the evolution of the microscopic morphology of carbon skeletons from loofah-like to octahedral and then to polyhedron and pomegran-ate after the adjustment of the Fe^(3+)to Mn^(2+)molar ratio.Furthermore,at the Fe^(3+)to Mn^(2+)molar ratio of 2:1,the obtained MnFe_(2)O_(4)/C/graphene composite exhibited the highest EMW absorption capacity.Specifically,a minimum reflection loss of-72.7 dB and a max-imum effective absorption bandwidth of 5.1 GHz were achieved at a low filling ratio of 10wt%.In addition,the possible EMW absorp-tion mechanism of MnFe_(2)O_(4)/C/graphene composites was proposed.Therefore,the results of this work will contribute to the construction of broadband and efficient carbon-based EMW absorbers derived from MOFs.

文摘Latent heat thermal energy storage(TES)effectively reduces the mismatch between energy supply and demand of renewable energy sources by the utilization of phase change materials(PCMs).However,the low thermal conductivity and poor shape stability are the main drawbacks in realizing the large-scale application of PCMs.Promisingly,developing composite PCM(CPCM)based on porous supporting mate-rial provides a desirable solution to obtain performance-enhanced PCMs with improved effective thermal conductivity and shape stability.Among all the porous matrixes as supports for PCM,three-dimensional carbon-based porous supporting material has attracted considerable attention ascribing to its high ther-mal conductivity,desirable loading capacity of PCMs,and excellent chemical compatibility with various PCMs.Therefore,this work systemically reviews the CPCMs with three-dimensional carbon-based porous supporting materials.First,a concise rule for the fabrication of CPCMs is illustrated in detail.Next,the experimental and computational research of carbon nanotube-based support,graphene-based support,graphite-based support and amorphous carbon-based support are reviewed.Then,the applications of the shape-stabilized CPCMs including thermal management and thermal conversion are illustrated.Last but not least,the challenges and prospects of the CPCMs are discussed.To conclude,introducing carbon-based porous materials can solve the liquid leakage issue and essentially improve the thermal conductivity of PCMs.However,there is still a long way to further develop a desirable CPCM with higher latent heat capacity,higher thermal conductivity,and more excellent shape stability.

文摘Because of the challenge of compounding lightweight,high-strength Ti/Al alloys due to their considerable disparity in properties,Al 6063 as intermediate layer was proposed to fabricate TC4/Al 6063/Al 7075 three-layer composite plate by explosive welding.The microscopic properties of each bonding interface were elucidated through field emission scanning electron microscope and electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD).A methodology combining finite element method-smoothed particle hydrodynamics(FEM-SPH)and molecular dynamics(MD)was proposed for the analysis of the forming and evolution characteristics of explosive welding interfaces at multi-scale.The results demonstrate that the bonding interface morphologies of TC4/Al 6063 and Al 6063/Al 7075 exhibit a flat and wavy configuration,without discernible defects or cracks.The phenomenon of grain refinement is observed in the vicinity of the two bonding interfaces.Furthermore,the degree of plastic deformation of TC4 and Al 7075 is more pronounced than that of Al 6063 in the intermediate layer.The interface morphology characteristics obtained by FEM-SPH simulation exhibit a high degree of similarity to the experimental results.MD simulations reveal that the diffusion of interfacial elements predominantly occurs during the unloading phase,and the simulated thickness of interfacial diffusion aligns well with experimental outcomes.The introduction of intermediate layer in the explosive welding process can effectively produce high-quality titanium/aluminum alloy composite plates.Furthermore,this approach offers a multi-scale simulation strategy for the study of explosive welding bonding interfaces.

文摘Nitrogen removal from domestic sewage is usually limited by insufficient carbon source and electron donor.An economical solid carbon source was developed by composition of polyvinyl alcohol,sodium alginate,and corncob,which was utilized as external carbon source in the anaerobic anoxic oxic(AAO)-biofilter for the treatment of low carbon-to-nitrogen ratio domestic sewage,and the nitrogen removal was remarkably improved from 63.2%to 96.5%.Furthermore,the effluent chemical oxygen demand maintained at 35 mg/L or even lower,and the total nitrogenwas reduced to less than 2mg/L.Metagenomic analysis demonstrated that the microbial communities responsible for potential denitrification and organic matter degradation in both AAO and the biofilter reactors were mainly composed of Proteobacteria and Bacteroides,respectively.The solid carbon source addition resulted in relatively high abundance of functional enzymes responsible for NO_(3)^(−)-N to NO_(2)^(−)-N con-version in both AAO and the biofilter reactors,thus enabled stable reaction.The carbon source addition during glycolysis primarily led to the increase of genes associated with the metabolic conversion of fructose 1.6P2 to glycerol-3P The reactor maintained high abun-dance of genes related to the tricarboxylic acid cycle,and then guaranteed efficient carbon metabolism.The results indicate that the composite carbon source is feasible for denitri-fication enhancement of AAO-biofilter,which contribute to the theoretical foundation for practical nitrogen removal application.

文摘Magnesium matrix composites with both high strength and ductility have been achieved by introducing pure Ti particles.However,the properties of the surfaces of the composites need to be improved by surface technology,such as micro-arc oxidation(MAO).In this study,we investigated the influence of the Ti-reinforcement phase on coating growth and evolution by subjecting both AZ91 alloy and AZ91/Ti composite to MAO treatment using silicate-based and phosphate-based electrolytes.Results revealed that the Ti-reinforcement phase influenced the MAO process,altering discharge behavior,and leading to a decreased cell voltage.The vigorous discharge of the Ti-reinforcement phase induced the formation of coating discharge channels,concurrently dissolving and oxidizing Ti-reinforcement to produce a composite ceramic coating with TiO2.The MAO coating on the AZ91/Ti composite exhibited a dark blue macromorphology and distinctive local micromorphological anomalies.In silicate electrolyte,a“volcano-like”localized morphology centered on the discharge channel emerged.In contrast,treatment in phosphate-based electrolyte resulted in a coating morphology similar to typical porous ceramic coatings,with visible radial discharge micropores at the reinforcement phase location.Compared to the AZ91 alloy,the coating on the AZ91/Ti composite exhibited lower thickness and higher porosity.MAO treatment reduced the self-corrosion current density of the AZ91/Ti surface by two orders of magnitude.The silicate coating demonstrated better corrosion resistance than the phosphate coating,attributed to its lower porosity.The formation mechanism of MAO coatings on AZ91/Ti composites in phosphate-based and silicate-based electrolytes was proposed.

文摘Fiber-reinforced composites are an ideal material for the lightweight design of aerospace structures. Especially in recent years, with the rapid development of composite additive manufacturing technology, the design optimization of variable stiffness of fiber-reinforced composite laminates has attracted widespread attention from scholars and industry. In these aerospace composite structures, numerous cutout panels and shells serve as access points for maintaining electrical, fuel, and hydraulic systems. The traditional fiber-reinforced composite laminate subtractive drilling manufacturing inevitably faces the problems of interlayer delamination, fiber fracture, and burr of the laminate. Continuous fiber additive manufacturing technology offers the potential for integrated design optimization and manufacturing with high structural performance. Considering the integration of design and manufacturability in continuous fiber additive manufacturing, the paper proposes linear and nonlinear filtering strategies based on the Normal Distribution Fiber Optimization (NDFO) material interpolation scheme to overcome the challenge of discrete fiber optimization results, which are difficult to apply directly to continuous fiber additive manufacturing. With minimizing structural compliance as the objective function, the proposed approach provides a strategy to achieve continuity of discrete fiber paths in the variable stiffness design optimization of composite laminates with regular and irregular holes. In the variable stiffness design optimization model, the number of candidate fiber laying angles in the NDFO material interpolation scheme is considered as design variable. The sensitivity information of structural compliance with respect to the number of candidate fiber laying angles is obtained using the analytical sensitivity analysis method. Based on the proposed variable stiffness design optimization method for complex perforated composite laminates, the numerical examples consider the variable stiffness design optimization of typical non-perforated and perforated composite laminates with circular, square, and irregular holes, and systematically discuss the number of candidate discrete fiber laying angles, discrete fiber continuous filtering strategies, and filter radius on structural compliance, continuity, and manufacturability. The optimized discrete fiber angles of variable stiffness laminates are converted into continuous fiber laying paths using a streamlined process for continuous fiber additive manufacturing. Meanwhile, the optimized non-perforated and perforated MBB beams after discrete fiber continuous treatment, are manufactured using continuous fiber co-extrusion additive manufacturing technology to verify the effectiveness of the variable stiffness fiber optimization framework proposed in this paper.
