Quenching and Partitioning (Q&P) steel is a 3rd generation advanced high strength steel (AHSS). Its good combination of high strength and ductility ensures potential application in automobile industry. Uniaxial tensile tests of QP980 steel sheet at five strain rates are performed to investigate the necking process and the effect of strain rate on necking behavior of Q&P steel. Digital image correlation (DIC) method is applied during tensile tests, and evolutions of major strain, minor strain and normal strain distributions along gauge section of the tensile specimens are obtained. The diffused and localized necking strains are determined according to SWIFT necking theory and HILL necking theory respectively. The test results indicate that with the increasing of strain rate in the investigated range, the diffused necking strain decreases from 0.152 to 0.120 and localized necking strain decreases from 0.245 to 0.137. Meanwhile, the difference of the two strains decreases form 0.096 to 0.017. Thus it can be concluded that strain rate has an influence on both necking strains during the deformation of QP980 steel sheet. Diffused and localized necking strains are determined by uniaxial tensile tests with the aid of DIC technique and the effect of strain rate on necking strains is evaluated.展开更多

To overcome this limitation, a theoretical and numerical comparison of two major models used to predict diffuse necking is present in this paper. Limit Point Bifurcation criterion is first introduced. An original formulation of the Maximum Force Criterion (MFC), taking into account the effects of damage and isotropic and kinematic hardenings, is then proposed. Strong connections are shown between them by comparing their theoretical basis. Numerical Forming Limit Diagrams at diffuse necking obtained with these criteria for different metallic materials are given.

The actual clamp manner of the specimen was modeled by setting correlative boundary condition,and the small angle deflection between tension loading axis and crystallography axis [100] was taken into account. The finite deformation numerical analysis of three-dimensional necking deformation for the specimen was performed by apply-ing crystal plasticity theory associated with a numerical algorithm suggested by the first author. According to the comparison with experimental observation,the fact was confirmed that the numerical results could describe the loading elongation curve of the copper single crystal specimen under large strain tension reasonably,and the method could be used to investigate the necking characteristic in neck shape and the effect due to the small angle deflection. Further,the investigation into the influence of specimen cross-section shape on necking was also performed;the results on mechanical response and neck profile evolution obtained through modeling of cylindrical specimen were compared with those obtained with square cross-section specimen.展开更多

Herein, we introduce a unique PbS structure of necking percolative superlattices to exclude the morphological factors and study the effect of ligands on the NC properties. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy data indicate that 1,2-ethanedithiol （EDT）, oxalic acid, mercaptopropionic acid, and NH4SCN （SCN） ligands were attached to the surface of NCs by substrate-supported Iigand exchange. Field-effect transistors were tested and photodetector measurements were performed to compare these NC solids. An SCN-treated film had the highest mobility and responsivity under high-power intensity irradiation owing to its high carrier density, whereas an EDT-treated film had the lowest mobility, photocurrent, and dark current. These findings introduce new avenues for choosing suitable ligands for NC applications.展开更多

The sequence and occurrence of necking and upsetting deformations were obtained. A theory of deformation was proposed by controlling the distribution of temperature field. Effective processes to control the wall thickness of rear axle at different positions were also proposed. The ultimate limit deformation with a necking coefficient of 0.68 could be achieved using the temperature gradient coefficient. A new technology of two-step heating and two-step extrusion for a 13 t rear axle was developed, qualified test samples were obtained, and suggestions for further industrial application were put forward.展开更多

文摘The inter-nanocrystal （NC） distance, necking degree, ordering level, and NC surface ligands all affect the electronic and optoelectronic properties of NC solids. Herein, we introduce a unique PbS structure of necking percolative superlattices to exclude the morphological factors and study the effect of ligands on the NC properties. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy data indicate that 1,2-ethanedithiol （EDT）, oxalic acid, mercaptopropionic acid, and NH4SCN （SCN） ligands were attached to the surface of NCs by substrate-supported Iigand exchange. Field-effect transistors were tested and photodetector measurements were performed to compare these NC solids. An SCN-treated film had the highest mobility and responsivity under high-power intensity irradiation owing to its high carrier density, whereas an EDT-treated film had the lowest mobility, photocurrent, and dark current. These findings introduce new avenues for choosing suitable ligands for NC applications.

文摘This study analyzed the deformation law of rear axles with variable wall thickness under bidirectional horizontal extrusion and found that necking was accompanied by upsetting deformation through theoretical calculation, numerical simulation, and experimental research. The sequence and occurrence of necking and upsetting deformations were obtained. A theory of deformation was proposed by controlling the distribution of temperature field. Effective processes to control the wall thickness of rear axle at different positions were also proposed. The ultimate limit deformation with a necking coefficient of 0.68 could be achieved using the temperature gradient coefficient. A new technology of two-step heating and two-step extrusion for a 13 t rear axle was developed, qualified test samples were obtained, and suggestions for further industrial application were put forward.

文摘Objectives To elucidate the potential mechanisms of electroacupuncture(EA)in restoring detrusor-bladder neck dyssynergia(DBND)following suprasacral spinal cord injury(SSCI).Methods A total of 52 specific pathogen-free(SPF)grade famale Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats(10-12 weeks,250-280 g)were randomly assigned to either a sham group(n=12)or a spinal cord injury model group(n=40).In the model group,DBND was induced through Hassan Shaker spinal cord transection at T10 level,with 24 rats meeting inclusion criteria and subse-quently randomized into DBND group(n=12)and EA intervention group(DBND+EA group,n=12).After spinal shock recovery(day 19 after modeling),DBND+EA group received EA treatment at Ciliao(BL32),Zhongji(RN3),and Sanyinjiao(SP6)acupoints for 20 min per ses-sion at 10/50 Hz frequencies,once daily for 10 d.Sham and DBND groups received anesthe-sia only without EA intervention.On day 29 post-modeling,all rats underwent urodynamic assessments,followed by hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining,tandem mass tag(TMT)pro-teomics,and Western blot(WB)analysis of detrusor and bladder neck tissues.Differentially expressed proteins(DEPs)were defined as proteins with P<0.05,unique peptides≥2,and fold change>1.2 or<0.83.Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway anal-ysis was performed using KOBAS 3.0(P<0.01),and protein-protein interaction(PPI)net-works were analyzed using Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins(STRING)11.5 and Cytoscape 3.9.1.Results Compared with sham group,DBND group showed significantly elevated leak point pressure(LPP)and maximum cystometric capacity(MCC)(both P<0.01).EA treatment sig-nificantly reduced both LPP and MCC compared with DBND group(P<0.01 and P<0.05,re-spectively).HE staining revealed that EA reduced detrusor fibrosis and improved bladder neck inflammation.TMT proteomics identified 30 overlapping DEPs in detrusor and 59 over-lapping DEPs in bladder neck when comparing DBND+EA/DBND groups with sham group.In detrusor tissue,KEGG analysis revealed 10 significantly enriched pathways(P<0.01),in-cluding mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)signaling pathway.PPI analysis showed 22 of 30 DEPs were interconnected.In bladder neck tissue,14 pathways were significantly en-riched(P<0.01),including relaxin signaling pathway,with 51 of 59 DEPs showing intercon-nections.Both TMT and WB validations demonstrated that compared with sham controls,DBND rats exhibited upregulated collagen type IV alpha 2 chain(Col4a2)and downregulated guanine nucleotide-binding protein G(z)subunit alpha(Gnaz)in detrusor tissue,while EA treatment normalized both proteins(both P<0.05).In bladder neck tissue,DBND rats showed decreased expression of smoothelin(Smtn)and calcium-activated potassium chan-nel subunit beta-1(Kcnmb1)compared with sham controls(both P<0.01),which were both upregulated following EA treatment(P<0.01 and P<0.05,respectively).Conclusion EA restores detrusor-bladder neck coordination in DBND through dual-target mechanisms.In detrusor tissue,EA modulates contraction via extracellular matrix remodel-ing,cyclic adenosine monophosphate(cAMP)signaling pathway regulation,and enhanced adenosine triphosphate(ATP)biosynthesis mediated by neurotransmitters.In bladder neck tissue,EA promotes relaxation by maintaining contractile phenotypes,reducing fibrosis,sup-pressing smooth muscle excitation,and regulating presynaptic neurotransmitter release.These findings provide mechanistic insights into EA's therapeutic role in managing DBND.
