It has been found that the orange peel defect in the st14 steel sheet was resulted from the local coarse grains which were produced during hot-rolling due to the critical deformation in dual-phase zone. During deep drawing, the coarse grains with {100}<001> microtexture can slip on the {112}<111> slip system to form bulging and yields orange peel defects, while the coarse grains with {112}<110> orientation do not form the defect as the Schmid factor of {112}<111> slip system in it equals zero.展开更多

The lens-aperture has been used to filter in energy and focus the backscattered electrons. This particular geometry allows us to eliminate the low energy backscattered electrons and collect the backscattered electrons, which are backscattered close to the incident beam orientation. The main advantage of this geometry is adapted to topographic contrast attenuation and atomic number contrast enhancement. Thus this new SEM is very suitable to analyze the material composition.展开更多

In situ backscattered electron(BSE) imaging, electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD), and electron-probe microanalysis(EPMA) were used to investigate the effect of annealing on the deformation behaviors of the AF and SC samples. The results indicate that columnar grains of the as-deposited AF sample had an approximated average width of 3 μm and an approximated aspect ratio of 8. The average width of columnar grains of the as-deposited SC sample was reduced to approximately 400 nm by the addition of saccharin to the electrolyte. A few very-large grains distributed in the matrix of the SC sample after annealing. No direct evidence indicated that S segregated at the grain boundaries before or after annealing. The average value of the total elongations of the SC samples decreased from 16% to 6% after annealing, whereas that of the AF samples increased from 18% to 50%. The dislocation recovery in grain-boundary areas of the annealed AF sample was reduced, which contributed to the appearance of microvoids at the triple junctions. The incompatibility deformation between very-large grains and fine grains contributed to the brittle fracture behavior of the annealed SC Ni.展开更多

The sim ulation model is based on the use of a dielectric function for describing inelas tic scattering and secondary excitation, and on the use of Mott cross sections f or elastic scattering. A systematic comparison between the calculated and experi mental spectra measured with a cylindrical mirror analyzer has been made for pri mary energies ranging from 1 to 5keV. Excellent agreement was obtained for these heavy metals on the backscattering background at primary energies in the keV re gion. A significant contribution of cascade secondary electrons to the measured spectra on the low-energy side was found.展开更多

Newton-Kantorovitch algorithm is adopted to cast the non- linear coupled integral equations into linearized form, method of moment is used to transform the above linearized integral equations into matrix form, the resulting ill-posed overdetermined linear equations are solved using pseudoinverse technique based on Gram-Schedmit orthogonal procedure. Initial values are determined by solving a nonlinear least aquare error problem to establish an equivat lent circular cylinder. The effects of various parameters on reconstruction quality are discussed with numerical results and analysis.展开更多

An iron steel grid, capable to absorb a significant portion of the backscattered radiation, was used. X-ray machine as a source for radiation was directed normally on the phantom, and the backscattered radiation was measured by using ion chamber. The measurements were recorded at various applied voltages (60 kvp to 120 kvp) and the fabricated grid was designed from iron steel constructed of perpendicular parallel strips mounted on a base. The results indicated that the use of iron steel grid was very effective in the reduction of backscattered radiation in an X-ray room up to about 46% by using fabricated iron steel grid.展开更多

In Compton scattering, incident photons undergo multiple scatterings within the material(target) before exiting. Gamma photons continue to soften in energy as the number of scatterings increases in a thick target; in other words, the energy of gamma photons decreases as the scatterings increase in case of a thick target and results in the generation of singly and multiply scattered events. In this work, the energy distribution of backscattered gamma photons with backscattering intensity and energy probabilities were calculated by using the Monte Carlo method for metallic, biological, and shielding materials with various thicknesses of slab geometry. The materials under study were targeted with gamma photons of 0.279, 0.662, 1.250, and 2.100 Me V energies. In addition, the energy distributions of multiply scattered gamma photons were studied for materials with infinite geometry.The results are presented and discussed in detail by comparing with other Monte Carlo calculations.展开更多

Tile results show that the characteristics are related to both the polarization orientation and wavelength of linearly polarized incident light. When the incident light is s-polarized, the depo- larization behaviors are different for different wavelengths. When the incident light is p-polarized, the depolarization behaviors, on the contrary, are similar for different wavelengths. In addition, there is an optimal incident angle for depolarization of linearly polarized light with different wavelengths, which is eaual to their effective Brewster andes, resneetivelv.展开更多

文摘We present a coaxial detection of the backscattered electrons in SEM. The lens-aperture has been used to filter in energy and focus the backscattered electrons. This particular geometry allows us to eliminate the low energy backscattered electrons and collect the backscattered electrons, which are backscattered close to the incident beam orientation. The main advantage of this geometry is adapted to topographic contrast attenuation and atomic number contrast enhancement. Thus this new SEM is very suitable to analyze the material composition.

文摘The microstructure development of 55VNb1 microalloyed steel after warm deformation via multi-pass biaxial compression tests was studied,and the effect of thermomechanical conditions on spheroidisation of cementite lamellae and ferrite recrystallisation for a range of deformation temperatures(600–700℃),cooling/soaking time(water quenching,air cooling,10 and 30 min of soaking time)and interpass time(0–10 s)was analysed.During deformation,the spheroidisation of pearlite is dynamically accelerated mainly by boundary splitting mechanism together with the rapid dissolution of cementite,while ferrite softening is attributed to dynamic recovery and continuous dynamic recrystallisation.The strong microstructural evolution during cooling/soaking time indicates that deformation energy accumulated is sufficient to activate metallurgical phenomena in both phases also statically.Static spheroidisation is a diffusive process,with rate controlled by the diffusion of vacancies,as suggested by the estimated activation energy.Ferrite refinement is the result of the evolution of continuous recrystallisation and pinning effect exerted by fine,globulised and homogeneously dispersed cementite particles.Increasing temperature causes accelerated kinetics in metallurgical phenomena;therefore,cooling/soaking time becomes key parameters to achieve ultrafine grained and spheroidised microstructures.Interpass time favours spheroidisation and promotes continuous recrystallisation;however,it must be carefully controlled to find a balance between recrystallisation and Ostwald ripening to optimise microstructural development.
文摘This study examines the effects of friction stir welding(FSW)and post-weld heat treatment(PWHT)on the grain boundary character distribution and corrosion resistance of cross sectional(top and bottom)regions of nickel-and molybdenum-free high-nitrogen austenitic stainless steel(HNASS).FSW at 400 rpm and 30 mm/min resulted in finer grains(4.18μm)and higher coincident site lattice(CSL)boundaries(32.3%)at the top of the stir zone(SZ)due to dynamic recrystallization(DRX).PWHT at 900℃for 1 h led to grain coarsening(12.91μm the bottom SZ)but enhanced CSL boundaries from 24.6%to 30.2%,improving grain boundary stability.PWHT reduced the kernel average misorientation(KAM)by 14.9%in the SZ-top layer and 20.4%in the SZ-bottom layer,accompanied by a 25%decrease in hardness in the SZ-top layer and 26.7%in the SZ-bottom layer,indicating strain recovery and reduced dislocation density.Potentiodynamic polarization tests(PDP)showed a 18%increase in pitting potential and a 76%reduction in corrosion rate after PWHT.The improvement in corrosion resistance is attributed to the increase inΣ3 twin boundaries,which enhance grain boundary stability and reduce susceptibility to localized corrosion.These findings highlight the role of PWHT in refining the microstructure and strengthening corrosion resistance,making HNASS a promising material for demanding applications.

文摘This study discusses the scope of application of the Doppler backscattering(DBS)diagnostic for the tokamak with reactor technologies(TRT)project.This involved numerical modeling of the three-dimensional(3D)beam trajectories.Calculations were performed to investigate the propagation of microwaves in the V(40–75 GHz)and W(75–110 GHz)frequency ranges with O-mode polarization for the density profile of the base TRT scenario.Our analysis showed that the DBS system antenna on the TRT would need to be tilted in both the poloidal and toroidal directions in order to meet the condition Kperp/Kpar<10%..For the DBS system located in the equatorial plane it was shown that a wide range of poloidal and toroidal angles is available for the successful implementation of the diagnostic to study the core,pedestal and scrape-off layer(SOL)regions.The DBS system located at 35 cm above the equatorial plane would be more limited in measurements only covering the SOL and pedestal regions.A shift of the cut-offs in the toroidal direction highlighted the need for 3D analysis of the DBS data.

文摘The ionosphere is an important component of the near Earth space environment.The three common methods for detecting the ionosphere with high frequency(HF)radio signals are vertical detection,oblique detection,and oblique backscatter detection.The ionograms obtained by these detection methods can effectively reflect a large amount of effective information in the ionosphere.The focus of this article is on the oblique backscatter ionogram obtained by oblique backscatter detection.By extracting the leading edge of the oblique backscatter ionogram,effective information in the ionosphere can be inverted.The key issue is how to accurately obtain the leading edge of the oblique backscatter ionogram.In recent years,the application of pattern recognition has become increasingly widespread,and the YOLO model is one of the best fast object detection algorithms in one-stage.Therefore,the core idea of this article is to use the newer YOLOX object detection algorithm in the YOLO family to perform pattern recognition on the F and E_(s) layers echoes in the oblique backscatter ionogram.After image processing,a single-layer oblique backscatter echoes are obtained.It can be found that the leading edge extraction of the oblique backscatter ionogram obtained after pattern recognition and image processing by the YOLOX model is more fitting to the actual oblique backscatter leading edge.
文摘Backscatter communication(BC)is con-sidered a key technology in self-sustainable commu-nications,and the unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)as a data collector can improve the efficiency of data col-lection.We consider a UAV-aided BC system,where the power beacons(PBs)are deployed as dedicated radio frequency(RF)sources to supply power for backscatter devices(BDs).After harvesting enough energy,the BDs transmit data to the UAV.We use stochastic geometry to model the large-scale BC sys-tem.Specifically,the PBs are modeled as a type II Mat´ern hard-core point process(MHCPP II)and the BDs are modeled as a homogeneous Poisson point process(HPPP).Firstly,the BDs’activation proba-bility and average coverage probability are derived.Then,to maximize the energy efficiency(EE),we opti-mize the RF power of the PBs under different PB den-sities.Furthermore,we compare the coverage proba-bility and EE performance of our system with a bench-mark scheme,in which the distribution of PBs is mod-eled as a HPPP.Simulation results show that the PBs modeled as MHCPP II has better performance,and we found that the higher the density of PBs,the smaller the RF power required,and the EE is also higher.

文摘The vectorial evolution of light polarization can reveal the microstructure and anisotropy of a medium beyond what can be obtained from measuring light intensity alone.However,polarization imaging in reflection geometry,which is ubiquitous and often preferred in diverse applications,has often suffered from poor and even incorrect characterization of anisotropic media.We present reciprocal polarization imaging of complex media in reflection geometry with the reciprocal polar decomposition of backscattering Mueller matrices enforcing reciprocity.We demonstrate that reciprocal polarization imaging of complex chiral and anisotropic media ac-curately quantifies their anisotropic properties in reflection geometry,whereas traditional approaches encounter difficulties and produce inferior and often erroneous results from the violation of reciprocity.In particular,reciprocal polarization imaging provides a consistent characterization of complex media of different thicknesses,accurately measures the optical activity and glucose concentration of turbid media in reflection,and discriminates between cancerous and normal tissue with even stronger contrast than forward measurement.Reciprocal polarization imaging promises broad applications of polarization optics ranging from remote sensing to bio-medicine in reflection geometries,especially in in vivo biomedical imaging,where reflection is the only feasible geometry.
