Firstly, we take two trivial quantum wires with a lattice constant ratio of 1:2 as an example. For the symmetric nearest-neighbor intra-chain hopping two-leg ladder, the inversion symmetry protected topological insulator phase with two degenerate topological edge states appears. When the inversion symmetry is broken, the topological insulators with one or two topological edge states of different energies and topological metals with edge states embedded in the bulk states could emerge depending on the filling factor. The topological origin of these topological states in the two-leg ladders is the topological properties of the Chern insulators and Chern metals. According to the arrangement of two trivial quantum wires, we construct two types of three-leg ladders. Each type of the three-leg ladder could be divided into one trivial subspace and one topological nontrivial subspace by unitary transformation. The topological nontrivial subspace corresponds to the effective two-leg ladder model. As the filling factor changes, the system could be in topological insulators or topological metals phases. When the two-leg ladder is constructed by two trivial quantum wires with a lattice constant ratio of 1:3 and 2:3, the system could also realize rich topological states such as the topological insulators and topological metals with the topological edge states. These rich topological states in the two-leg and three-leg ladders could be confirmed by current experimental techniques.展开更多

文摘The ultrafine copper wire with a diameter of 18μm is prepared via cold drawing process from the single crystal downcast billet(Φ8 mm),taking a drawing strain to 12.19.In this paper,in-depth investigation of the microstructure feature,texture evolution,mechanical properties,and electrical conductivity of ultrafine wires ranging fromΦ361μm toΦ18μm is performed.Specially,the microstructure feature and texture type covering the whole longitudinal section of ultrafine wires are elaborately characterized.The results show that the average lamella thickness decreases from 1.63μm to 102 nm during the drawing process.Whereas,inhomogeneous texture evolution across different wire sections was observed.The main texture types of copper wires are comprised of<111>,<001>and<112>orientations.Specifically,the peripheral region is primarily dominated by<111>and<112>,while the central region is dominated by<001>and<111>.As the drawing strain increases,the volume fraction of hard orientation<111>with low Schmid factor increases,where notably higher fraction of<111>is resulted from the consumption of<112>and<001>for the wire ofΦ18μm.For drawn copper wire of 18μm,superior properties are obtained with a tensile strength of 729.8 MPa and an electrical conductivity of 86.9%IACS.Furthermore,it is found that grain strengthening,dislocation strengthening,and texture strengthening are three primary strengthening mechanisms of drawn copper wire,while the dislocation density is the main factor on the reducing of conductivity.

文摘Owing to the lack of matching commercial welding wires,the development of wire arc additive manufacturing(WAAM)for most aluminum alloys is hindered.A wire-powder synchronous arc additive manufacturing(WPAAM)was proposed to prepare the target Al-Si-Mg aluminum alloy.Based on the synchronous deposition of AlSi_(12) wire and pure Mg powder,the deposition width of the WPAAMed thin-wall was increased by 61% compared with that of WAAMed thin-wall using AlSi_(12) wire,and the machining allowance was reduced by 81%.The added Mg powder benefited to form refined equiaxed grains,and reduced the average grain size of the WPAAMed thin-wall to 47.1μm,showing a decrease of 23.8% relatively to that of the WAAMed thin-wall.Besides,Mg reacted with Si to form Mg_(2)Si strengthening phases.The mechanical properties tests showed that the ultimate tensile strength and elongation of the WPAAMed thin-wall increased up to 174.5 MPa and 4.1%,reaching 92% and 60% those of the WAAMed thin-wall,respectively.

文摘Based on comprehensive observations of 20 wire icing events during winter from 2019 to 2021,we investigated the characteristics of the icing properties,the atmospheric boundary layer structure,the raindrop size distribution,and their associated effects on the ice accretion mechanism in the mountainous region of Southwest China.The maximum ice weight was positively correlated with the duration of ice accretion in the mountainous area.The duration of precipitation accounted for less than 20%of the icing period in the mountainous area,with solid-phase hydrometeors being predominant.Icing events,dominated by freezing rain(FR)and mixed rain–graupel(more than 70%),were characterized by glaze or highdensity mixed icing.The relationship between the melting energy and refreezing energy reflected the distribution characteristics of the proportion of FR under mixed-phase precipitation.The intensity of the warm layer and the dominant precipitation phase significantly affected the variations in the microphysical properties of FR.The melting of large dry snowflakes significantly contributed to FR in the mountainous areas,resulting in smaller generalized intercepts and larger mass-weighted mean diameters in the presence of a stronger warm layer.Under a weaker warm layer,the value of the massweighted mean diameter was significantly smaller because of the inability of large solid particles to melt.Finally,FR in the mountainous area dominated the ice weight during the rapid ice accumulation period.A numerical simulation of FR icing on wires effectively revealed the evolution of disaster-causing icing in mountainous areas.

文摘The feasibility of manufacturing Ti-6Al-4V samples through a combination of laser-aided additive manufacturing with powder(LAAM_(p))and wire(LAAM_(w))was explored.A process study was first conducted to successfully circumvent defects in Ti-6Al-4V deposits for LAAM_(p) and LAAM_(w),respectively.With the optimized process parameters,robust interfaces were achieved between powder/wire deposits and the forged substrate,as well as between powder and wire deposits.Microstructure characterization results revealed the epitaxial prior β grains in the deposited Ti-6Al-4V,wherein the powder deposit was dominated by a finerα′microstructure and the wire deposit was characterized by lamellar α phases.The mechanisms of microstructure formation and correlation with mechanical behavior were analyzed and discussed.The mechanical properties of the interfacial samples can meet the requirements of the relevant Aerospace Material Specifications(AMS 6932)even without post heat treatment.No fracture occurred within the interfacial area,further suggesting the robust interface.The findings of this study highlighted the feasibility of combining LAAM_(p) and LAAM_(w) in the direct manufacturing of Ti-6Al-4V parts in accordance with the required dimensional resolution and deposition rate,together with sound strength and ductility balance in the as-built condition.

文摘To investigate the performance of utilizing the shape memory effect of SMA(Shape Memory Alloy)wire to generate recovery stress,this paper performed single heating recovery stress tests and reciprocating heating-cooling recovery stress tests on SMA wire under varying initial strain conditions.The effects of various strains and different energized heating methods on the recovery stress of SMA wires were explored in the single heating tests.The SMA wire was strained from 2%to 8%initially,and two distinct heating approaches were employed:one using a large current interval for rapid heating and one using a small current interval for slower heating.The experimental outcomes reveal that during a single heating cycle,the temperature-recovery stress relationship of SMA wire exhibits three distinct stages:the martensite phase stage,the transition stage from martensite to austenite phase,and the austenite phase stage.Notably,the choice of heating method does not influence the maximum recovery stress value,and the correlation between initial strain and maximum recovery stress is predominantly linear.Moreover,conducting the reciprocating temperature rise and fall performance test is important to better simulate the scenario in practical engineering where multiple recovery stress in SMA wires for structural repair.In this test,two temperature cycling methods were studied:interval rise and fall,as well as direct rise and fall.In the case of utilizing the interval temperature rise and fall method,it was observed that the recovery stress associated with cooling was significantly higher than that corresponding to heating at the same temperature.Furthermore,the recovery stress was lower upon subsequent heating than that measured during the previous heating cycle.Based on the experimental results,a prediction model for the temperature-recovery stress relationship has been proposed to simplify numerical calculations.It is hoped that an approximate temperaturerecovery stress curve can be obtained from the parameters of the SMA wire.The calculated values derived from this model show good alignment with the measured values,indicating its reliability.

文摘The performance and price of copper-based micro linear products are determined by the diameter uniformity.How to accurately detect the wire diameter of long-length copper based micro linear products without cutting or damage has always been a technical concern for production enterprises.Herein,a novel approach was developed for nondestructive detection of the average diameter at any given segment of a long copper wire by assessing the adsorption capacity of arginine on its surface.The amount of adsorbent on the surface of the copper wire exhibits a positive correlation with the area,which can be detected by extractive electrospray ionization mass spectrometry(EESI-MS)after online elution with ammonia.The experimental results demonstrated that the analysis can be completed within 15 min,with a good linear relationship between copper wires with different diameters and the adsorption capacity of arginine.The linear correlation coefficient R2was 0.995,the relative standard deviation was 1.10%-2.81%,and the detection limit reached 2.5μm(length of segment=4 cm),showing potential applications for facile measurement of the average diameter of various metal wires.

文摘Buckling failure in submarine cables presents a prevalent challenge in ocean engineering.This work aims to explore the buckling behavior of umbilical cables with damaged sheaths subjected to compression and bending cyclic loads.A finite element model is devised,incorporating a singular armor wire,a rigid core,and a damaged sheath.To scrutinize the buckling progression and corresponding deformation,axial compression and bending cyclic loads are introduced.The observations reveal that a reduction in axial compression results in a larger number of cycles before buckling ensues and progressively shifts the buckling position toward the extrados and fixed end.Decreasing the bending radius precipitates a reduction in the buckling cycle number and minimizes the deformation in the armor wire.Furthermore,an empirical model is presented to predict the occurrence of birdcage buckling,providing a means to anticipate buckling events and to estimate the requisite number of cycles leading to buckling.

文摘Ice cover on transmission lines is a significant issue that affects the safe operation of the power system.Accurate calculation of the thickness of wire icing can effectively prevent economic losses caused by ice disasters and reduce the impact of power outages on residents.However,under extreme weather conditions,strong instantaneous wind can cause tension sensors to fail,resulting in significant errors in the calculation of icing thickness in traditional mechanics-based models.In this paper,we propose a dynamic prediction model of wire icing thickness that can adapt to extreme weather environments.The model expands scarce raw data by the Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Network with Gradient Penalty(WGAN-GP)technique,records historical environmental information by a recurrent neural network,and evaluates the ice warning levels by a classifier.At each time point,the model diagnoses whether the current sensor failure is due to icing or strong winds.If it is determined that the wire is covered with ice,the icing thickness will be calculated after the wind-induced tension is removed from the ice-wind coupling tension.Our new model was evaluated using data from the power grid in an area with extreme weather.The results show that the proposed model has significant improvements in accuracy compared with traditional models.

文摘Combining the advantages of high efficiency,low-pressure drop,and large throughput,the pore arrayenhanced tube-in-tube microchannel(PA-TMC) is a promising microreactor for industrial applications.However,most of the mass transfer takes place in the upstream pore region,while the contribution of the downstream annulus is limited.In this work,helical wires were introduced into the annulus by adhering to the outer surface of the inner tube.Mixing behavior and mass transfer of liquid-liquid twophase flow in PA-TMC with different helical wires have been systematically studied by a combination of experiments and volume of fluid(VOF) method.The introduction of helical wires improves the overall volumetric mass transfer coefficient KLa by up to 133% and the mass transfer efficiency E by up to 117%.The simulation results show that the helical wire brings extra phase mixing regions and increases the specific interface area,while accelerating the fluid flow and expanding the area of enhanced turbulent dissipation rate.Influences of helical wires in various configurations are compared by the comprehensive index I concerning the pressure drop and mass transfer performance simultaneously and a new correlation between KLa and specific energy consumption φ is proposed.This research deepens the understanding of the mixing behavior and mass transfer in the PA-TMCs and provides practical experience for the process intensification of microchannel reactors.

文摘The deformation of Cu–20 wt.%Fe alloy wires leads to a significant improvement in mechanical properties and a decrease in electrical conductivity.Simultaneous improvements in strength and conductivity were achieved by intermediate annealing of drawn Cu–20 wt.%Fe wires.As the annealing temperature increased,the strength of Cu–20 wt.%Fe alloy wire decreased monotonically,but the electrical conductivity first increased and then decreased,reaching its peak value after annealing at 500℃.The decrease in strength is related to dislocation recovery and static recrystallization of Cu and Fe phases,and the increase in electrical conductivity mainly results from the aging precipitation of solid solution Fe.After annealing at 500℃,there was no obvious recrystallization of Cu phase,and many of the nano-Fe particles precipitated from Cu matrix.An annealing temperature of 600℃ induced the recrystallization of Cu matrix and an increase in Fe solid solubility,resulting in a decrease in strength and electrical conductivity.Subsequently,the wires annealed at 500℃ were drawn to 2 mm.Compared with those of the continuously drawn Cu–20 wt.%Fe alloy wires,the deformation ability,strength,and electrical conductivity of Cu–20 wt.%Fe alloy wires subjected to intermediate annealing treatment are significantly greater.This is mainly related to the sufficient precipitation of Fe in Cu matrix and the strengthening of refined Fe fibers parallel to the drawing direction.

文摘A reasonable process plan is an important basis for implementing wire arc additive and subtractive hybrid manufacturing(ASHM),and a new optimization method is proposed.Firstly,the target parts and machining tools are modeled by level set functions.Secondly,the mathematical model of the additive direction optimization problem is established,and an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm is designed to decide the best additive direction.Then,the two-step strategy is used to plan the hybrid manufacturing alternating sequence.The target parts are directly divided into various processing regions;each processing region is optimized based on manufacturability and manufacturing efficiency,and the optimal hybrid manufacturing alternating sequence is obtained by merging some processing regions.Finally,the method is used to outline the process plan of the designed example model and applied to the actual hybrid manufacturing process of the model.The manufacturing result shows that the method can meet the main considerations in hybrid manufacturing.In addition,the degree of automation of process planning is high,and the dependence on manual intervention is low.

文摘Wire arc additive manufacturing(WAAM)presents a promising approach for fabricating medium-to-large austenitic stainless steel components,which are essential in industries like aerospace,pressure vessels,and heat exchangers.This research examines the mi-crostructural characteristics and tensile behaviour of SS308L manufactured via the gas metal arc welding-based WAAM(WAAM 308L)process.Tensile tests were conducted at room temperature(RT,25℃),300℃,and 600℃in as-built conditions.The microstructure con-sists primarily of austenite grains with retainedδ-ferrite phases distributed within the austenitic matrix.The ferrite fraction,in terms of fer-rite number(FN),ranged between 2.30 and 4.80 along the build direction from top to bottom.The ferrite fraction in the middle region is 3.60 FN.Tensile strength was higher in the horizontal oriented samples(WAAM 308L-H),while ductility was higher in the vertical ones.Tensile results show a gradual reduction in strength with increasing test temperature,in which significant dynamic strain aging(DSA)is observed at 600℃.The variation in serration behavior between the vertical and horizontal specimens may be attributed to microstructural differences arising from the build orientation.The yield strength(YS),ultimate tensile strength(UTS),and elongation(EL)of WAAM 308L at 600℃were(240±10)MPa,(442±16)MPa,and(54±2.00)%,respectively,in the horizontal orientation(WAAM 308L-H),and(248±9)MPa,(412±19)MPa,and(75±2.80)%,respectively,in the vertical orientation(WAAM 308L-V).Fracture surfaces revealed a transition from ductile dimple fracture at RT and 300℃to a mixed ductile-brittle failure with intergranular facets at 600℃.The research explores the applicability and constraints of WAAM-produced 308L stainless steel in high-temperature conditions,offering crucial in-sights for its use in thermally resistant structural and industrial components.

文摘Additive manufacturing(AM)technologies,with their high degree of flexibility,enhance material utilization in the fabrication of large magnesium alloy parts,effectively meeting the demands of complex geometries.However,research on the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy components produced via AM is currently limited.This study investigates the microstructural and corrosion characteristics of AZ91D magnesium alloy fabricated by wire arc additive manufacturing(WAAM)compared to its cast counterpart.A large-sized AZ91D bulk part was deposited on an AZ31 base plate using a layer-by-layer stacking approach.The results showed that the WAAM AZ91D was featured by obviously refined grains from 228.92μm of the cast one to 52.92μm on the travel direction-through thickness(TD-TT)and 50.07μm on the normal direction-through thickness(ND-TT).The rapid solidification process of WAAM inhibited the formation of β-Mg_(17)Al_(12) phase while promoting the formation of uniformly distributed network of dislocations,the dispersive precipitation of nano Al_(8)Mn_(5) phase,as well as Zn segregation.WAAM AZ91D demonstrated the occurrence of pitting corrosion and inferior corrosion resistance compared to cast AZ91D,attributed to the micro-galvanic corrosion between the α-Mg matrix and Al_(8)Mn_(5) particles and the increased number of grain boundaries.

文摘Interlayer friction stir processing(FSP)has been proved to be an efective method of enhancing the mechanical properties of wire arc-directed energy deposited(WA-DED)samples.However,the original deposition structure was still retained in the FSP-WA-DED component besides the processed zone(PZ),thus forming a composite structure.Considering the material utilization and practical service process of the deposited component,more attention should be paid on this special composite structure,but the relevant investigation has not been carried out.In this study,an Al–Mg–Sc alloy was prepared by WA-DED with interlayer FSP treatment,and the composite structure was frstly investigated.Almost all of the pores were eliminated under the pressure efect from the tool shoulder.The grains were further refned with an average size of about 1.2μm in the PZ.Though no severe plastic deformation was involved in the retained WA-DED deposition zone,comparable tensile properties with the PZ sample were obtained in the composite structure.Low ultimate tensile strength(UTS)of 289 MPa and elongation of 3.2%were achieved in the WA-DED sample.After interlayer FSP treatment,the UTS and elongation of the PZ samples were signifcantly increased to 443 MPa and 16.3%,while those in the composite structure remained at relatively high levels of 410 MPa and 13.5%,respectively.Meanwhile,a high fatigue strength of 180 and 130 MPa was obtained in the PZ and composite structure samples,which was clearly higher than that of the WA-DED sample(100 MPa).It is concluded that the defects in traditional WA-DED process can be eliminated in the composite structure after interlayer FSP treatment,resulting in enhanced tensile and fatigue properties,which provides an efective method of improving the mechanical properties of the WA-DED sample.
文摘In heavy-duty long-distance transmission scenarios,steel wire ropes are widely used due to their unique advantages,and their safety is very important,which has also led to the rapid development of non-destructive testing technology for steel wire ropes.The non-destructive testing technology for steel wire ropes is influenced by various factors such as its own structure and external working environment,and the testing process is relatively complex.Multiple testing methods and related types of sensors have also emerged.The electromagnetic detection method is currently the most effective method,but it also has its limitations in development and has not yet fully achieved the expected detection goals.In order to completely replace manual inspection work with the development of non-destructive testing technology for steel wire ropes,more in-depth research and long-term accumulation are still needed.

文摘The topological states of the two-leg and three-leg ladders formed by two trivial quantum wires with different lattice constants are theoretically investigated. Firstly, we take two trivial quantum wires with a lattice constant ratio of 1:2 as an example. For the symmetric nearest-neighbor intra-chain hopping two-leg ladder, the inversion symmetry protected topological insulator phase with two degenerate topological edge states appears. When the inversion symmetry is broken, the topological insulators with one or two topological edge states of different energies and topological metals with edge states embedded in the bulk states could emerge depending on the filling factor. The topological origin of these topological states in the two-leg ladders is the topological properties of the Chern insulators and Chern metals. According to the arrangement of two trivial quantum wires, we construct two types of three-leg ladders. Each type of the three-leg ladder could be divided into one trivial subspace and one topological nontrivial subspace by unitary transformation. The topological nontrivial subspace corresponds to the effective two-leg ladder model. As the filling factor changes, the system could be in topological insulators or topological metals phases. When the two-leg ladder is constructed by two trivial quantum wires with a lattice constant ratio of 1:3 and 2:3, the system could also realize rich topological states such as the topological insulators and topological metals with the topological edge states. These rich topological states in the two-leg and three-leg ladders could be confirmed by current experimental techniques.

文摘304H austenitic stainless steel wire was investigated,emphasizing microstructural deformation,martensite phase transformation,and residual magnetic properties during drawing.Utilizing several microstructural observation techniques,the volume fraction of martensite,modes of grain deformation in distinct regions,and the phase relationship between austenite and martensite were comprehensively characterized.In addition,a finite element simulation with representative volume elements specific to different zones also offers insights into strain responses during the drawing process.Results from the first-pass drawing reveal that there exists a higher volume fraction of martensite in the central region of 304H austenitic stainless steel wire compared to edge areas.This discrepancy is attributed to a concentrated presence of shear slip system{111}<110>γcrystallographic orientation,primarily accumulating in the central region obeying the Kurdjumov-Sachs path.Subsequent to the second drawing pass,the cumulative shear deformation within distinct regions of the steel wire became more pronounced.This resulted in a progressive augmentation of the volume fraction of martensite in both the central and peripheral regions of the steel wire.Concurrently,this led to a discernible elevation in the overall residual magnetism of the steel wire.
文摘BACKGROUND Orthodontic treatment for open bite and crossbite cases is always challenging.In this paper,we demonstrate a skeletal class III patient with anterior open bite and crossbite whose problem was successfully corrected with improved super-elastic Ti-Ni alloy wire(ISW).CASE SUMMARY A 19 years old male came to our clinic with a chief complaint of anterior open bite and crossbite and not able to chew food well.Clinical examination revealed an angle class III malocclusion with anterior open bite,crossbite and spaced arch.Ra-diographic and clinical examination showed a skeletal class III pattern.We used ISW to level the upper and lower arch and to correct the anterior open bite and crossbite.Intermaxillary elastics were also used to achieve a better interdigitation.Finally,adequate overbite,overjet and a desirable occlusion were achieved.The active treatment time took 2 years and 2 months.CONCLUSION In a case of class III angular malocclusion with open bite and crossbite in the ante-rior teeth,ideal results were achieved using the ISW technique and the patient was satisfied with the outcome.
