In this work,Ti_(p)/Mg-7Gd-2Y-3Zn(Ti_(p)/GWZ723)composites with various Ti_(p) sizes(~10μm,~20μm and~35μm)were fabricated using semi-solid stirring casting method,the composites were subjected to hot extrusion,and ...In this work,Ti_(p)/Mg-7Gd-2Y-3Zn(Ti_(p)/GWZ723)composites with various Ti_(p) sizes(~10μm,~20μm and~35μm)were fabricated using semi-solid stirring casting method,the composites were subjected to hot extrusion,and the infuence of Ti_(p) size on long-period stacking ordered(LPSO)phase,dynamic recrystallization(DRX),mechanical properties,and work hardening behavior of the Ti_(p)/GWZ723 composites was investigated.The results indicate that with the increase in Ti_(p) size,the grain size of the as-cast Ti_(p)/GWZ723 composites increases,and the lamellar 14H LPSO phase precipitates within the matrix after homogenization treatment.With the increase in Ti_(p) size,the reduction in the Ti_(p) surface area leads to a decrease in surface energy.Consequently,the enrichment of RE element is reduced,which facilitates the formation of the 14H LPSO phase.Moreover,the layer spacing of the 14H LPSO phase decreases.Particle deformation zone(PDZ)is formed around the Ti_(p) after extrusion,promoting the nucleation of DRX.The PDZ size increases with the increase in the Ti_(p) size.Nevertheless,the elongation of the Ti_(p) releases stress and reduces the PDZ size.Simultaneously,the 14H LPSO phase with a small interlayer spacing inhibits the non-basal slip,and the volume fraction of DRX(VDRX)decreases with the increase in the Ti_(p) size.With the increase in Ti_(p) size,the refned grain size and the 14H LPSO phase with smaller interlayer spacing contribute to enhancing the work hardening rate and dynamic recovery rate of the Ti_(p)/GWZ723 composites.The Ti_(p)/Mg laminar-like interface formed in the Ti_(p)/GWZ723 composites can alleviate local stress concentration and inhibit the initiation and propagation of cracks.展开更多

The process of fatigue crack initiation and early stage of propagation behavior indicates that fatigue crack mainly occurs at the interface between the inclusion and the matrix. The effect of inclusion on the fatigue crack initiation and the early stage of crack growth was very obvious. The fatigue crack growth path in the matrix is similar to the shape of inclusion made on the basis of fatigue fracture image analysis. The empiric relation between the surface and inside crack growth length, near a surface inclusion, can be expressed. Therefore, the fatigue crack growth rate or life of P/M Rene95 alloy including the inclusions can be evaluated on the basis of the measurable surface crack length parameter. In addition, the effect of two inclusions on the fatigue crack initiation behavior was investigated by the in-situ observation with SEM.展开更多

The current study investigated the association between P300 component and Internet addiction disorder. We found that individuals with Internet addiction disorder exhibited significantly longer P300 latencies than controls （N2： P = 0.035; P3a： P = 0.031 P3b： P = 0.043） and similar P300 amplitudes compared to control participants. After 3 months of cognitive behavioral therapy, P300 latencies decreased significantly in the P3a and P3b （P3a： P = 0.045; P3b： P = 0.062）. These results suggest that deficits in cognitive function may be involved in Internet addiction disorder, and that clinical psychological treatment may be effective.展开更多
