In this work, we propose a multi-functional PSHE sensor based on VO_(2), a material that can reveal the phase transition behavior. By applying thermal control, the mutual transformation into different phase states of VO_(2) can be realized, which contributes to the flexible switching between multiple RI sensing tasks. When VO_(2) is insulating, the ultrasensitive detection of glucose concentrations in human blood is achieved. When VO_(2) is in a mixed phase, the structure can be designed to distinguish between the normal cells and cancer cells through no-label and real-time monitoring. When VO_(2) is metallic, the proposed PSHE sensor can act as an RI indicator for gas analytes. Compared with other multi-functional sensing devices with the complex structures, our design consists of only one analyte and two VO_(2) layers, which is very simple and elegant. Therefore, the proposed VO_(2)-based PSHE sensor has outstanding advantages such as small size, high sensitivity, no-label, and real-time detection, providing a new approach for investigating tunable multi-functional sensors.展开更多

The microstructure contained columnar grains with (111) texture in the vertical plane (90° sample), while a large equiaxed grain with (100) texture was produced in the horizontal plane (0° sample). As for 45° sample, a large number of equiaxed grains and a few columnar grains with (111) texture can be observed. The sample produced at a 0° orientation demonstrates the highest tensile strength, whereas the 90° sample exhibits the greatest elongation. Conversely, the 45° sample displays the least favorable overall performance. As the tests temperature increased from room temperature to 600℃, the anisotropy rate of ultimate tensile strength, yield strength and ductility between 0° and 45° samples, decreased from 8.98 to 6.96%, 2.36 to 1.28%, 19.93 to 12.23%, as well as between 0° and 90° samples decreased from 4.87 to 4.03%, 11.88 to 7.21% and 14.11 to 6.89%, respectively, because of the recovery of oriented columnar grains.展开更多

These issues significantly impede the practical application of as-printed components. This study examines the Mg-15Gd-1Zn-0.4Zr (GZ151K, wt.%) alloy, a prototypical high-strength casting Mg-RE alloy, fabricated through laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). Despite achieving ultra-high strength, the GZ151K alloy concurrently exhibits a pronounced cold-cracking susceptibility. The as-printed GZ151K alloy consists of almost fully fine equiaxed grains with an average grain size of merely 2.87 µm. Subsequent direct aging (T5) heat treatment induces the formation of dense prismatic β' precipitates. Consequently, the LPBF-T5 GZ151K alloy manifests an ultra-high yield strength of 405 MPa, surpassing all previously reported yield strengths for Mg alloys fabricated via LPBF and even exceeding that of its extrusion-T5 counterpart. Interestingly, as-printed GZ151K samples with a build height of 2 mm exhibit no cracking, whereas samples with build heights ranging from 4 to 18 mm demonstrate severe cold cracking. Thermal stress simulation also suggests that the cold cracking susceptibility increases significantly with increasing build height. The combination of high thermal stress and low ductility in the as-printed GZ151K alloy culminates in a high cold cracking susceptibility. This study offers novel insights into the intricate issue of cold cracking in the LPBF process of high-strength Mg alloys, highlighting the critical balance between achieving high strength and mitigating cold cracking susceptibility.展开更多

文摘Magnetostrictive Fe-Ga alloys have captivated substantial focus in biomedical applications because of their exceptional transition efficiency and favorable cytocompatibility.Nevertheless,Fe-Ga alloys always exhibit frustrating magnetostriction coefficients when presented in bulk dimensions.It is well-established that the magnetostrictive performance of Fe-Ga alloys is intimately linked to their phase and crystal structures.In this study,various concentrations of boron(B)were doped into Fe_(81)Ga_(19) alloys via the laser-beam powder bed fusion(LPBF)technique to tailor the crystal and phase structures,thereby improving the magnetostrictive performance.The results revealed the capacity for quick solidification of the LPBF process in expediting the solid solution of B element,which increased both lattice distortion and dislocations within the Fe-Ga matrix.These factors contributed to an elevation in the density of the modified-D0_(3) phase structure.Moreover,the prepared Fe-Ga-B alloys also exhibited a(001)preferred grain orientation caused by the high thermal gradients during the LPBF process.As a result,a maximum magnetostriction coefficient of 105 ppm was achieved in the(Fe_(81)Ga_(19))_(98.5)B_(1.5) alloy.In alternating magnetic fields,all the LPBF-prepared alloys showed good dynamic magnetostriction response without visible hysteresis,while the(Fe_(81)Ga_(19))_(98.5)B_(1.5) alloy presented a notable enhancement of~30%in magnetostriction coefficient when compared with the Fe_(81)Ga_(19) alloy.Moreover.the(Fe_(81)Ga_(19))_(98.5)B_(1.5) alloy exhibited favorable biocompatibility and osteogenesis,as confirmed by increased alkaline phosphatase(ALP)activity and the formation of mineralized nodules.These findings suggest that the B-doped Fe-Ga alloys combined with the LPBF technique hold promise for the development of bulk magnetostrictive alloys that are applicable for bone repair applications.

文摘Micrometer-sized,irregularly shaped Ti particles(0.5wt%and 1.0wt%)were mixed with an Al-Si-Mg-Zr matrix powder,and a novel Ti-modified Al-Si-Mg-Zr aluminum alloy was subsequently fabricated via laser-powder bed fusion(L-PBF).The results demonstrated that the introduction of Ti particles promoted the formation of near-fully equiaxed grains in the alloy owing to the strong grain refinement of the primary(Al,Si)3(Ti,Zr)nanoparticles.Furthermore,the presence of(Al,Si)3(Ti,Zr)nanoparticles inhibited the decomposition of Si-rich cell boundaries and the precipitation of Si nanoparticles in theα-Al cells.The ultimate tensile strength(UTS),yield strength(YS),and elongation of the asbuilt 0.5wt%Ti(0.5Ti)alloy were(468±11),(350±1)MPa,and(10.0±1.4)%,respectively,which are comparable to those of the L-PBF Al-Si-Mg-Zr matrix alloy and significantly higher than those of traditional L-PBF Al-Si-Mg alloys.After direct aging treatment at 150°C,the precipitation of secondary nanoparticles notably enhanced the strength of the 0.5Ti alloy.Specifically,the 0.5Ti alloy achieved a maximum UTS of(479±11)MPa and YS of(376±10)MPa.At 250°C,the YS of the L-PBF Ti/Al-Si-Mg-Zr alloy was higher than that of the L-PBF Al-Si-Mg-Zr matrix alloy due to the retention of Si-rich cell boundaries,indicating a higher thermal stability.As the aging temperature was increased to 300°C,the dissolution of Si-rich cell boundaries,desolvation of solid-solution elements,and coarsening of nanoprecipitates led to a decrease in the UTS and YS of the alloy to below 300 and 200 MPa,respectively.However,the elongation increased significantly.

文摘Laser additively manufactured(LAM)Ni-based superalloys commonly exhibit low strength and high residual stress in the as-built state,requiring post-heat treatment to improve mechanical properties.We propose a modified heat treatment(MHT)process that only involves a single-step aging at 650℃ for 4 h to achieve high strength,high ductility,and low residual stress simultaneously in a laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)-processed Inconel 718(IN718)alloy.The MHT treated alloy exhibits comparable tensile strength(1368 MPa)to the conventional solution plus two-step aging(SA)treated alloy(1398 MPa),while the tensile elongation(∼21.7%for MHT treated alloy and 13.4%for SA treated alloy)is 60%higher and the residual stress(∼195 MPa)is 20%lower than the SA treated alloy.The balanced high performance of the MHT IN718 alloy was mainly attributed to the precipitation of abundantγ’’phase with a size of∼5 nm,while the original nano-sized Laves precipitates and dislocation cells were mostly retained.The finer size and higher fraction ofγ”of the MHT sample mainly result from the dislocation structure and compositional variations in the as-built IN718,which promotes precipitation during aging.The retention of Laves phase,and cellular dislocation network in the MHT alloy also contributes to work hardening during tension and suspends the occurrence of necking.This study unveils a unique strengthening and toughening mechanism in the Ni-based superalloy produced by LAM with the presence of abundant Laves precipitates and provides a simple,low energy-consumption and cost-effective heat treatment route for achieving desirable mechanical properties.

文摘This work investigated the anisotropy tensile properties of Inconel 625 alloy fabricated by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) under various tests temperature, focusing the anisotropy evolution during the high temperature. The microstructure contained columnar grains with (111) texture in the vertical plane (90° sample), while a large equiaxed grain with (100) texture was produced in the horizontal plane (0° sample). As for 45° sample, a large number of equiaxed grains and a few columnar grains with (111) texture can be observed. The sample produced at a 0° orientation demonstrates the highest tensile strength, whereas the 90° sample exhibits the greatest elongation. Conversely, the 45° sample displays the least favorable overall performance. As the tests temperature increased from room temperature to 600℃, the anisotropy rate of ultimate tensile strength, yield strength and ductility between 0° and 45° samples, decreased from 8.98 to 6.96%, 2.36 to 1.28%, 19.93 to 12.23%, as well as between 0° and 90° samples decreased from 4.87 to 4.03%, 11.88 to 7.21% and 14.11 to 6.89%, respectively, because of the recovery of oriented columnar grains.

文摘Ti-6Al-4Zr-2Sn-6Mo alloy is one of the most recent titanium alloys processed using powder bed fusion-laser beam(PBF-LB)technology.This alloy has the potential to replace Ti-6Al-4V in automotive and aerospace applications,given its superior mechanical properties,which are approximately 10%higher in terms of ultimate tensile strength(UTS)and yield strength after appropriate heat treatment.In as-built conditions,the alloy is characterized by the presence of soft orthorhombicα″martensite,necessitating a postprocessing heat treatment to decompose this phase and enhance the mechanical properties of the alloy.Usually,PBFed Ti6246 components undergo an annealing process that transforms theα″martensite into anα-βlamellar microstructure.The primary objective of this research was to develop a solution treatment and aging(STA)heat treatment tailored to the unique microstructure produced by the additive manufacturing process to achieve an ultrafine bilamellar microstructure reinforced by precipitation hardening.This study investigated the effects of various solution temperatures in theα-βfield(ranging from 800 to 875℃),cooling media(air and water),and aging time to determine the optimal heat treatment parameters for achieving the desired bilamellar microstructure.For each heat treatment condition,differentα-βmicrostructures were found,varying in terms of theα/βratio and the size of the primaryα-phase lamellae.Particular attention was given to how these factors were influenced by increases in solution temperature and how microhardness correlated with the percentage of the metastableβphase present after quenching.Tensile tests were performed on samples subjected to the most promising heat treatment parameters.A comparison with literature data revealed that the optimized STA treatment enhanced hardness and UTS by13%and 23%,respectively,compared with those of the annealed alloy.Fracture surface analyses were conducted to investigate fracture mechanisms.

文摘To examine the effect of bedding angle upon burst proneness in terms of energy,phyllites with seven various bedding angles are selected for conventional uniaxial compression and single-cyclic loading eunloading uniaxial compression tests.The ejection and failure during compression process of phyllites are monitored in real-time by high-speed camera system.The results demonstrate that the phyllites with different bedding angles all consistently follow the linear energy storage and dissipation(LESD)law during compression.The ultimate energy storage of phyllites with varying bedding angles can be calculated precisely via using the LESD law.Based on this,four kinds of energy-based rockburst indices are applied to quantitatively assess the burst proneness for phyllites.Combined with the recorded images of high-speed camera system,ejection distance,and mass of rock fragments and powder,the burst proneness for phyllites with various bedding angles is qualitatively evaluated adopting the far-field ejection mass ratio.Next,burst proneness of anisotropic phyllites is assessed quantitatively and qualitatively.It is found that phyllites with bedding angles of 0°,15°,and 90°have a high burst proneness,and that with bedding angle of 30°has a medium burst proneness,whereas the ones with bedding angles of 45°,60°,and 75°have a low burst proneness.Finally,the published experimental data of shale and sandstone specimens with different bedding angles are extracted,and it is preliminarily verified that the bedding angle does not change the LESD law of rocks.

文摘Additive manufacturing (AM) of high-strength metallic alloys frequently encounters detrimental distortion and cracking, attributed to the accumulation of thermal stresses. These issues significantly impede the practical application of as-printed components. This study examines the Mg-15Gd-1Zn-0.4Zr (GZ151K, wt.%) alloy, a prototypical high-strength casting Mg-RE alloy, fabricated through laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). Despite achieving ultra-high strength, the GZ151K alloy concurrently exhibits a pronounced cold-cracking susceptibility. The as-printed GZ151K alloy consists of almost fully fine equiaxed grains with an average grain size of merely 2.87 µm. Subsequent direct aging (T5) heat treatment induces the formation of dense prismatic β' precipitates. Consequently, the LPBF-T5 GZ151K alloy manifests an ultra-high yield strength of 405 MPa, surpassing all previously reported yield strengths for Mg alloys fabricated via LPBF and even exceeding that of its extrusion-T5 counterpart. Interestingly, as-printed GZ151K samples with a build height of 2 mm exhibit no cracking, whereas samples with build heights ranging from 4 to 18 mm demonstrate severe cold cracking. Thermal stress simulation also suggests that the cold cracking susceptibility increases significantly with increasing build height. The combination of high thermal stress and low ductility in the as-printed GZ151K alloy culminates in a high cold cracking susceptibility. This study offers novel insights into the intricate issue of cold cracking in the LPBF process of high-strength Mg alloys, highlighting the critical balance between achieving high strength and mitigating cold cracking susceptibility.

文摘To enhance the mechanical properties of Mo alloys prepared through laser powder bed fusion(LPBF),a hot isostatic pressing(HIP)treatment was used.Results show that following HIP treatment,the porosity decreases from 0.27%to 0.22%,enabling the elements Mo and Ti to diffuse fully and to distribute more uniformly,and to forming a substantial number of low-angle grain boundaries.The tensile strength soars from 286±32 MPa to 598±22 MPa,while the elongation increases from 0.08%±0.02%to 0.18%±0.02%,without notable alterations in grain morphology during the tensile deformation.HIP treatment eliminates the molten pool boundaries,which are the primary source for premature failure in LPBFed Mo alloys.Consequently,HIP treatment emerges as a novel and effective approach for strengthening the mechanical properties of LPBFed Mo alloys,offering a fresh perspective on producing high-performance Mo-based alloys.

文摘Through a modified inherent strain model based on the minimum residual stress and deformation,three building schemes with different building postures and support structures were evaluated by finite element analysis.Results demonstrate that according to the principle of reducing the overall height of the building and reducing the support structure with a large tilt angle from the building direction,the residual stress and deformation can be effectively reduced by proper design of building posture and support before laser powder bed melting.Moreover,without the data of thermophysical property variation of Ti-6Al-4V artificial knee implants with temperature,predicting the residual stress and deformation with acceptable accuracy and reduced time cost can be achieved by the inherent strain model.
文摘Hydraulic jumps are a prevalent phenomenon in flows through spillways,chutes,and sluice gates.As hydraulic jumps exhibit substantial kinetic energy,the downstream of a hydraulic structure is prone to scour.To mitigate downstream scour and enhance energy dissipation,hydraulic jumps are often directed into stilling basins with various bed configurations,including horizontal,sloping,rough,and their combinations.This review compiles numerous analytical and experimental studies on hydraulic jumps under various bed conditions.The effect of bed roughness on sequent depth ratio,roller and jump lengths,shear stress,and energy dissipation is critically reviewed.The impacts of roughness height,flow Froude number,and bed angle on jump characteristics are discussed,substantiated by comparative analyses for distinct roughness heights.The results indicate that bed roughness intensifies shear stress,resulting in augmented energy dissipation and reductions in jump length and sequent depth.Additionally,the analytical and empirical equations proposed by researchers for different jump scenarios are discussed,and their applicability under various conditions is summarized.Finally,it suggests considering the scale effect in future research to refine the comprehension of jump stability over adverse slopes.

文摘Noise is inevitable in electrical capacitance tomography(ECT)measurements.This paper describes the influence of noise on ECT performance for measuring gas-solids fluidized bed characteristics.The noise distribution is approximated by the Gaussian distribution and added to experimental capacitance data with various intensities.The equivalent signal strength(Ф)that equals the signal-to-noise ratio of packed beds is used to evaluate noise levels.Results show that the Pearson correlation coefficient,which indicates the similarity of solids fraction distributions over pixels,increases with Ф,and reconstructed images are more deteriorated at lower Ф.Nevertheless,relative errors for average solids fraction and bubble size in each frame are less sensitive to noise,attributed to noise compromise caused by the process of pixel values.These findings provide useful guidance for assessing the accuracy of ECT measurements of multiphase flows.
文摘Herein,the liquid-solid mass trans fer characteristics in micropacked bed reactors(μPBRs)operated with immiscible liquid-liquid two-phase flow is experimentally investigated.It is found that the overall volumetric liquid-solid mass transfer coefficient(k_(s)a)increases with the total flow rate and the channelto-particle diameter ratio,while decreases with the organic-to-aqueous phase flow rate ratio.A satisfactory correlation model for calculating k_(s)a of the liquid-liquid μPBRs is developed.The new knowledge obtained would be useful in guiding the design and optimization of the liquid-liquid μPBRs.
