This research indicated that under the action of steady loading, the mechanical deformation path of the simulated gas drainage borehole is gradually complicated, and the decay of the borehole circumferential strain is an important characterization of the prediction and early warning of borehole instability and collapse. The horizontal position of borehole occurs compressive strain, and the vertical of which occurs tensile strain under the action of vertical stress. At the initial stage of loading, the vertical strain is more sensitive than that in the horizontal direction. After a certain period of time, the horizontal strain is gradually higher than the vertical one, and the intersection of the borehole horizontal diameter and the hole wall is the stress concentration point. With the increase of the depth of hole, the strain shows a gradual decay trend as a whole, and the vertical strain decays more observably, but there is no absolute position correlation between the amount of strain decay and the increase in borehole depth,and the area within 1.5 times the orifice size is the borehole stress concentration zone.展开更多

The Altyn Tagh fault zone is a typical transpressional fault zone, characterized by blocks rotation and crustal shortening and vertical extrusion of blocks within the Altyn Tagh strike\|slip system. Differences of three\|dimensional deformation and configuration of the active structures are recognized at different segment of the Altyn Tagh fault zone.1\ Structural configuration of the Altyn Tagh fault zone\;In the Altyn Tagh strike\|slip fault zone, the assemblage pattern of the (active) faults is in the form of parallel plumes, especially in the eastern and the western segments of the Altyn Tagh fault zone. These plumes structures in the eastern segment are assembled by string\|like left lateral strike\|slip fault and broom\|like thrusting faults, and in the western segment by arc\|like left lateral strike\|slip faults along with thrusting faults and normal faults. In the middle segment of the Altyn Tagh fault zone, the structures are characterized by the string\|like left lateral strike\|slip faults in the center and reverse thrusting faults on the two sides.

文摘High-elevation and long-runout landslides are among the most destructive mountain hazards.In this study,we present the first identification of a high-elevation and long-runout landslide,referred to as the Guba landslide,located near the Jinsha River Bridge,using interferometric synthetic aperture radar(InSAR)technology.This landslide poses a significant threat to the construction and future safe operation of both the Jinsha River Bridge and the Yebatan hydropower station.Therefore,deformation monitoring and risk assessment based on comprehensive remote sensing and numerical simulation are urgently required.We processed SAR imagery acquired from four satellite platforms between July 2007 and September 2023 to derive surface displacements of the Guba landslide.A topography-constrained model integrating multi-track SAR observations was employed to retrieve the three-dimensional deformation field and determine the optimal sliding direction for each pixel,enabling estimation of the potential slip surface.Furthermore,a Tikhonov regularization method was applied to reconstruct a nearly 16-year displacement time series along the sliding direction.To assess potential hazards,numerical simulations were conducted to estimate the extent and impact of possible landslide failures.Results show that the Guba landslide is a large-scale rockslide with an area of approximately 0.17 km^(2),a maximum slip surface depth of 94 m,and an estimated volume of 0.84×10^(7)m^(3).The cumulative displacement of the landslide between 2007 and 2023 reached 1.37 m,and it is currently in an initial accelerated subphase.Numerical simulation results suggest that once failed,the landslide mass could move rapidly along the valley,forming a debris dam approximately 40–50 m high and 200 m wide across the Jinsha River,which poses a severe risk to both the bridge and the hydropower station.In addition,local seasonal deformation oscillations were observed,potentially driven by the coupled effects of precipitation and near-surface temperature.Further wavelet analysis revealed a time lag of approximately 39 days between deformation,rainfall,and near-surface temperature.These findings offer critical insights into the mitigation and management of the Guba landslide,supporting the safe implementation of major infrastructure projects.Moreover,the approach provides a novel framework for investigating high-elevation and long-runout landslides in inaccessible mountainous regions.

文摘How to achieve high-entropy alloys(HEAs)with ultrahigh strength and ductility is a challenging issue.Precipitation strengthening is one of the methods to significantly enhance strength,but unfortunately,ductility will be lost.To overcome the strength-ductility trade-off,the strategy of this study is to induce the formation of high-density nanoprecipitates through dual aging(DA),triggering multiple deformation mechanisms,to obtain HEAs with ultrahigh strength and ductility.First,the effect of precold deformation on precipitation behavior was studied using Ni_(35)(CoFe)_(55)V_(5)Nb_(5)(at.%)HEAas the object.The results reveal that the activation energy of recrystallization is 112.2 kJ/mol.As the precold-deformation amount increases from 15%to 65%,the activation energy of precipitation gradually decreases from 178.8 to 159.7 kJ/mol.The precipitation time shortens,the size of the nanoprecipitate decreases,and the density increases.Subsequently,the thermal treatment parameters were optimized,and the DA process was customized based on the effect of precold deformation on precipitation behavior.High-density L1_(2) nanoprecipitates(~3.21×10^(25) m^(-3))were induced in the 65% precold-deformed HEA,which led to the simultaneous formation of twins and stacking fault(SF)networks during deformation.The yield strength(YS),ultimate tensile strength,and ductility of the DA-HEA are~2.0 GPa,~2.2 GPa,and~12.3%,respectively.Compared with the solid solution HEA,the YS of the DA-HEA increased by 1,657 MPa,possessing an astonishing increase of~440%.The high YS stems from the precipitation strengthening contributed by the L1_(2) nanoprecipitates and the dislocation strengthening contributed by precold deformation.The synergistically enhanced ductility stems from the high strain-hardening ability under the dual support of twinning-induced plasticity and SF-induced plasticity.

文摘Theβsolidifiedγ-TiAl alloy holds important application value in the aerospace industry,while its com-plex phase compositions and geometric structures pose challenges to its microstructure control during the thermal-mechanical process.The microstructure evolution of Ti-43Al-4Nb-1Mo-0.2B alloy at 1200℃/0.01 s−1 was investigated to clarify the coupling role of dynamic recrystallization(DRX)and phase transformation.The results revealed that the rate of DRX inα2+γlamellar colonies was comparatively slower than that inβo+γmixed structure,instead being accompanied by intense lamellar kinking and rotation.The initiation and development rates of DRX inα2,βo,andγphases decreased sequentially.The asynchronous DRX of the various geometric structures and phase compositions resulted in the un-even deformed microstructure,and the dynamic softening induced by lamellar kinking and rotation was replaced by strengthened DRX as strain increased.Additionally,the blockyα2 phase and the terminals ofα2 lamellae were the preferential DRX sites owing to the abundant activated slip systems.Theα2→βo transformation within lamellar colonies facilitated DRX and fragment ofα2 lamellae,while theα2→γtransformation promoted the decomposition ofα2 lamellae and DRX ofγlamellae.Moreover,the var-iedβo+γmixed structures underwent complicated evolution:(1)Theγ→βo transformation occurred at boundaries of lamellar colonies,followed by simultaneous DRX ofγlamellar terminals and neighboringβo phase;(2)DRX occurred earlier within the band-likeβo phase,with the delayed DRX in enclosedγphase;(3)DRX within theβo synapses and neighboringγphase was accelerated owing to generation of elastic stress field;(4)Dispersedβo particles triggered particle stimulated nucleation(PSN)ofγphase.Eventually,atomic diffusion along crystal defects inβo andγphases caused fracture of band-likeβo phase and formation of massiveβo particles,impeding grain boundary migration and hindering DRXed grain growth ofγphase.

文摘Improvements in aero-engine performance have made the structures of the aero-engine components increasingly complex.To better adapt to the processing requirements of narrow twisted channels such as an integral shrouded blisk,this study proposes an innovative method of electrochemical cutting in which a flexible tube electrode is controlled by online deformation during processing.In this study,the processing principle of electrochemical cutting with a flexible electrode for controlled online deformation(FECC)was revealed for the first time.The online deformation process of flexible electrodes and the machining process of profiles were analysed in depth,and the corresponding theoretical models were established.Conventional electrochemical machining(ECM)is a multi-physical field-coupled process involving electric and flow fields.In FECC,classical mechanics are introduced into the tool cathode,which must be loaded at all times during the machining process.Therefore,in this study,before and after the deformation of the flexible electrode,a corresponding simulation study was conducted to understand the influence of the online deformation of the flexible electrode on the flow and electric fields.The feasibility of flexible electrodes for online deformation and the validity of the theoretical model were verified by deformation measurements and in situ observation experiments.Finally,the method was successfully applied to the machining of nickel-based high-temperature alloys,and different specifications of flexible electrodes were used to complete the machining of the corresponding complex profiles,thereby verifying the feasibility and versatility of the method.The method proposed in this study breaks the tradition of using a non-deformable cathode for ECM and adopts a flexible electrode that can be deformed during the machining process as the tool cathode,which improves machining flexibility and provides a valuable reference to promote the ECM of complex profiles.

文摘Sudden temperature drops cause soils in natural environments to freeze unidirectionally,resulting in soil expansion and deformation that can lead to damage to engineering structures.The impact of temperature-induced freezing on deformation and solute migration in saline soils,especially under extended freezing,is not well understood due to the lack of knowledge regarding the microscopic mechanisms involved.This study investigated the expansion,deformation,and water-salt migration in chlorinated saline soils,materials commonly used for canal foundations in cold and arid regions,under different roof temperatures and soil compaction levels through unidirectional freezing experiments.The microscopic structures of saline soils were observed using scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and optical microscopy.A quantitative analysis of the microstructural data was conducted before and after freezing to elucidate the microscopic mechanisms of water-salt migration and deformation.The results indicate that soil swelling is enhanced by elevated roof temperatures approaching the soil's freezing point and soil compaction,which prolongs the duration and accelerates the rate of water-salt migration.The unidirectional freezing altered the microstructure of saline soils due to the continuous temperature gradients,leading to four distinct zones:natural frozen zone,peak frozen zone,gradual frozen zone,and unfrozen zone,each exhibiting significant changes in pore types and fractal dimensions.Vacuum suction at the colder end of the soil structure facilitates the upward migration of salt and water,which subsequently undergoes crystallization.This process expands the internal pore structure and causes swelling.The findings provide a theoretical basis for understanding the evolution of soil microstructure in cold and arid regions and for the management of saline soil engineering.

文摘River embankments are designed to defend against floods over coastal and riparian areas.It is important to early detect unexpected damages on embankments before they exacerbate.To continuously monitor the stability of the embankments and efficiently recognize such potential damages,this study takes SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar)derived deformation as an indicator of the embankment instability,and customizes a multi-temporal InSAR(Interferometric SAR)approach-small baseline subset.Specifically,during InSAR processing,we apply a two-step amplitude difference dispersion threshold method to extract InSAR measurement points,thus improving the point density within the embankment.We applied this method to the Kangshan Embankment(KE)using 147 Sentinel-1 acquired between 2017 and 2021.We categorized KE into Waterside Slope(WS),Embankment Top(ET),and Landside Slope(LS)using InSAR height estimation.Given the dominance of downslope movement,we developed a projection matrix from InSAR-derived deformation in the satellite line-of-sight direction onto WS and LS.The study shows that KE was generally stable during the five-year period,while WS,ET,and LS experienced different deformation processes.For instance,seasonal variation was observed from the deformation time series,especially between every April and November.We applied the principal component analysis to the time-series displacement and analyzed the results in conjunction with the rainfall data of Kangshan Township.It showed that deformation due to rainfall equals 80.93%,81.30%,and 82.46%of the total deformation for WS,ET,and LS,respectively,indicating that rainfall is one of the environmental driving factors affecting the deformations.We conclude that the proposed methodology is suited for systematic embankment monitoring and identifies major driving forces.

文摘Dislocations and disclinations are fundamental topological defects within crystals,which determine the mechanical properties of metals and alloys.Despite their important roles in multiple physical mechanisms,e.g.,dynamic recovery and grain boundary mediated plasticity,the intrinsic coupling and correlation between disclinations and dislocations,and their impacts on the deformation behavior of metallic materials still remain obscure,partially due to the lack of a theoretical tool to capture the rotational nature of disclinations.By using a Lie-algebra-based theoretical framework,we obtain a general equation to quantify the intrinsic coupling of disclinations and dislocations.Through quasi in-situ electron backscatter diffraction characterizations and disclination/dislocation density analyses in Mg alloys,the generation,coevolution and reactions of disclinations and dislocations during dynamic recovery and superplastic deformation have been quantitatively analyzed.It has been demonstrated that the obtained governing equation can capture multiple physical processes associated with mechanical deformation of metals,e.g.,grain rotation and grain boundary migration,at both room temperature and high temperature.By establishing the disclination-dislocation coupling equation within a Lie algebra description,our work provides new insights for exploring the coevolution and reaction of disclinations/dislocations,with profound implications for elucidating the microstructure-property relationship and underlying deformation mechanisms in metallic materials.
文摘To address the problem of multi-missile cooperative interception against maneuvering targets at a prespecified impact time and desired Line-of-Sight(LOS)angles in ThreeDimensional(3D)space,this paper proposes a 3D leader-following cooperative interception guidance law.First,in the LOS direction of the leader,an impact time-controlled guidance law is derived based on the fixed-time stability theory,which enables the leader to complete the interception task at a prespecified impact time.Next,in the LOS direction of the followers,by introducing a time consensus tracking error function,a fixed-time consensus tracking guidance law is investigated to guarantee the consensus tracking convergence of the time-to-go.Then,in the direction normal to the LOS,by combining the designed global integral sliding mode surface and the second-order Sliding Mode Control(SMC)theory,an innovative 3D LOS-angle-constrained interception guidance law is developed,which eliminates the reaching phase in the traditional sliding mode guidance laws and effectively saves energy consumption.Moreover,it effectively suppresses the chattering phenomenon while avoiding the singularity issue,and compensates for unknown interference caused by target maneuvering online,making it convenient for practical engineering applications.Finally,theoretical proof analysis and multiple sets of numerical simulation results verify the effectiveness,superiority,and robustness of the investigated guidance law.

文摘The deformation caused by tunnel excavation is quite important for safety,especially when it is adjacent to the existing tunnel.Nevertheless,the investigation of deformation characteristics in overlapped curved shield tunneling remains inadequate.The analytical solution for calculating the deformation of the ground and existing tunnel induced by overlapped curved shield tunneling is derived by the Mirror theory,Mindlin solution and Euler-Bernoulli-Pasternak model,subsequently validated through both finite element simulation and field monitoring.It is determined that the overcutting plays a crucial role in the ground settlement resulting from curved shield tunneling compared to straight shield tunneling.The longitudinal settlement distribution can be categorized into five areas,with the area near the tunnel surface experiencing the most dramatic settlement changes.The deformation of the existing tunnel varies most significantly with turning radius compared to tunnel clearance and grouting pressure,especially when the turning radius is less than 30 times the tunnel diameter.The tunnel crown exhibits larger displacement than the tunnel bottom,resulting in a distinctive‘vertical egg'shape.Furthermore,an optimized overcutting mode is proposed,involving precise control of the extension speed and angular velocity of the overcutting cutter,which effectively mitigates ground deformation,ensuring the protection of the existing tunnel during the construction.

文摘The application of liquid core reduction(LCR)technology in thin slab continuous casting can refine the internal microstruc-tures of slabs and improve their production efficiency.To avoid crack risks caused by large deformation during the LCR process and to minimize the thickness of the slab in bending segments,the maximum theoretical reduction amount and the corresponding reduction scheme for the LCR process must be determined.With SPA-H weathering steel as a specific research steel grade,the distributions of tem-perature and deformation fields of a slab with the LCR process were analyzed using a three-dimensional thermal-mechanical finite ele-ment model.High-temperature tensile tests were designed to determine the critical strain of corner crack propagation and intermediate crack initiation with various strain rates and temperatures,and a prediction model of the critical strain for two typical cracks,combining the effects of strain rate and temperature,was proposed by incorporating the Zener-Hollomon parameter.The crack risks with different LCR schemes were calculated using the crack risk prediction model,and the maximum theoretical reduction amount for the SPA-H slab with a transverse section of 145 mm×1600 mm was 41.8 mm,with corresponding reduction amounts for Segment 0 to Segment 4 of 15.8,7.3,6.5,6.4,and 5.8 mm,respectively.

文摘Grouting has been the most effective approach to mitigate water inrush disasters in underground engineering due to its ability to plug groundwater and enhance rock strength.Nevertheless,there is a lack of potent numerical tools for assessing the grouting effectiveness in water-rich fractured strata.In this study,the hydro-mechanical coupled discontinuous deformation analysis(HM-DDA)is inaugurally extended to simulate the grouting process in a water-rich discrete fracture network(DFN),including the slurry migration,fracture dilation,water plugging in a seepage field,and joint reinforcement after coagulation.To validate the capabilities of the developed method,several numerical examples are conducted incorporating the Newtonian fluid and Bingham slurry.The simulation results closely align with the analytical solutions.Additionally,a set of compression tests is conducted on the fresh and grouted rock specimens to verify the reinforcement method and calibrate the rational properties of reinforced joints.An engineering-scale model based on a real water inrush case of the Yonglian tunnel in a water-rich fractured zone has been established.The model demonstrates the effectiveness of grouting reinforcement in mitigating water inrush disaster.The results indicate that increased grouting pressure greatly affects the regulation of water outflow from the tunnel face and the prevention of rock detachment face after excavation.
文摘Liposarcoma is one of the most common soft tissue sarcomas,however,its occurrence rate is still rare compared to other cancers.Due to its rarity,in vitro experiments are an essential approach to elucidate liposarcoma pathobiology.Conventional cell culture-based research(2D cell culture)is still playing a pivotal role,while several shortcomings have been recently under discussion.In vivo,mouse models are usually adopted for pre-clinical analyses with expectations to overcome the issues of 2D cell culture.However,they do not fully recapitulate human dedifferentiated liposarcoma(DDLPS)characteristics.Therefore,three-dimensional(3D)culture systems have been the recent research focus in the cell biology field with the expectation to overcome at the same time the disadvantages of 2D cell culture and in vivo animal models and fill in the gap between them.Given the liposarcoma rarity,we believe that 3D cell culture techniques,including 3D cell cultures/co-cultures,and Patient-Derived tumor Organoids(PDOs),represent a promising approach to facilitate liposarcoma investigation and elucidate its molecular mechanisms and effective therapy development.In this review,we first provide a general overview of 3D cell cultures compared to 2D cell cultures.We then focus on one of the recent 3D cell culture applications,Patient-Derived Organoids(PDOs),summarizing and discussing several PDO methodologies.Finally,we discuss the current and future applications of PDOs to sarcoma,particularly in the field of liposarcoma.

文摘In engineering practice,it is often necessary to determine functional relationships between dependent and independent variables.These relationships can be highly nonlinear,and classical regression approaches cannot always provide sufficiently reliable solutions.Nevertheless,Machine Learning(ML)techniques,which offer advanced regression tools to address complicated engineering issues,have been developed and widely explored.This study investigates the selected ML techniques to evaluate their suitability for application in the hot deformation behavior of metallic materials.The ML-based regression methods of Artificial Neural Networks(ANNs),Support Vector Machine(SVM),Decision Tree Regression(DTR),and Gaussian Process Regression(GPR)are applied to mathematically describe hot flow stress curve datasets acquired experimentally for a medium-carbon steel.Although the GPR method has not been used for such a regression task before,the results showed that its performance is the most favorable and practically unrivaled;neither the ANN method nor the other studied ML techniques provide such precise results of the solved regression analysis.

文摘In this work,fow behavior and dynamic recrystallization(DRX)mechanism of a low carbon martensitic stainless bearing steel,CSS-42L,were investigated using a thermomechanical simulator under the temperature and strain rate ranges of 900 to 1100℃ and 0.1 to 20 s^(−1),respectively.The Arrhenius-type constitutive equation was established based on the fow stress curves.Moreover,the peak stress decreased with the increase in deformation temperature and the decrease in strain rate.There were two DRX mechanisms during hot deformation of the current studied steel,the main one being discontinuous dynamic recrystallization mechanism,acting through grain boundary bulging and migration,and the auxiliary one being continuous dynamic recrystallization mechanism,working through the rotation of sub-grains.On the basis of microstructural characterizations,power dissipation maps and fow instability maps,the optimized hot deformation parameters for CSS-42L bearing steel were determined as 1050℃/0.1 s^(−1) and 1100℃/1 s^(−1).
文摘The hot deformation characteristics of induction quenched Zr-Sn-Nb-Fe-Cr alloy forged rod in the temperature range of 600–900°C and strain rate range of 0.001–1 s^(-1)were studied by Gleeble3800 uniaxial hot compression experiment.The results show that the flow stress decreases with the decrease in strain rate and the increase in deformation temperature in the true stress-true strain curve of Zr-Sn-Nb-Fe-Cr alloy forged rod.Moreover,the hot deformation characteristics of the material can be described by the hyperbolic sine constitutive equation.Under the experimental conditions,the average thermal activation energy(Q)of the alloy was 412.9105 kJ/mol.The microstructure analysis of the processing map and the sample after hot compression shows that the optimum hot working parameters of the alloy are 795–900°C,0.001–0.0068 s^(-1),at the deformation temperature of 600–900°C,and the strain rate of 0.001–1 s^(-1).

文摘The hot deformation behavior of electrolytic copper was investigated using a Gleeble-3500 thermal simulation testing machine at temperatures ranging from 500℃ to 800℃ and strain rates ranging from 0.01 s^(-1) to 10 s^(-1),under 70% deformation conditions.The true stress-true strain curves were analyzed and a constitutive equation was established at a strain of 0.5.Based on the dynamic material model proposed by Prasad,processing maps were developed under different strain conditions.Microstructure of compressed sample was observed by electron backscatter diffraction.The results reveal that the electrolytic copper demonstrates high sensitivity to deformation temperature and strain rate during high-temperature plastic deformation.The flow stress decreases gradually with raising the temperature and reducing the strain rate.According to the established processing map,the optimal processing conditions are determined as follows:deformation temperatures of 600-650℃ and strain rates of 5-10 s^(-1).Discontinuous dynamic recrystallization of electrolytic copper occurs during high-temperature plastic deformation,and the grains are significantly refined at low temperature and high strain rate conditions.
