The main compositions of FA are 72% SiO2 and 25% A1203 in the size of 3-7 Ixm. Electrodeposition was performed in Watts bath containing FA with concentrations of 5, 20, 50 g/L, current densities of 2 and 4 A/dm2, temperature of 50 ~C and magnetic stirring of 250 r/min.

FA content in deposit is dependent on the FA concentration in solution, as well as the plating parameters. Since FA particles were incorporated in the coating, the mechanical and electrochemical properties of the coating were increased. The microhardness of Ni/FA composite plating reaches HV 430 in comparison with HV 198 of pure Ni coating. It was confirmed by electrochemical measurement that the corrosion resistance of Ni/FA composite coating was higher than that of pure Ni.展开更多

文摘In this study,microstructure and mechanical behavior of Mg/Al composite plates with Ti foil interlayer were systematically studied,with a great emphasis on the effect of different thicknesses of Ti foil interlayer.The results show that compared to 100μm thick Ti foil,10μm thick Ti foil is more prone to fracture and is evenly distributed in fragments at the interface.The introduction of Ti foil can effectively refine the grain size of Mg layers of as-rolled Mg/Al composite plates,10μm thick Ti foil has a better refining effect than 100μm thick Ti foil.Ti foil can effectively increase the yield strength(YS)and ultimate strength(UTS)of as-rolled Mg/Al composite plates,10μm thick Ti foil significantly improves the elongation(El)of Mg/Al composite plate,while 100μm thick Ti foil slightly weakens the El.After annealing at 420℃ for 0.5 h and 4 h,Ti foil can inhibit the formation of intermetallic compounds(IMCs)at the interface of Mg/Al composite plates,which effectively improves the YS,UTS and El of Mg/Al composite plates.In addition,Ti foil can also significantly enhance the interfacial shear strength(SS)of Mg/Al composite plates before and after annealing.
文摘Bio-inspired helicoidal composite laminates,inspired by the intricate helical structures found in nature,present a promising frontier for enhancing the mechanical properties of structural designs.Hence,this study provides a comprehensive investigation into the nonlinear free vibration and nonlinear bending behavior of bio-inspired composite plates.The inverse hyperbolic shear deformation theory(IHSDT)of plates is employed to characterize the displacement field,with the incorporation of Green-Lagrange nonlinearity.The problem is modeled using the C0finite element method(FEM),and an in-house code is developed in the MATLAB environment to solve it numerically.Various helicoidal layup configurations including helicoidal recursive(HR),helicoidal exponential(HE),helicoidal semi-circular(HS),linear helicoidal(LH),and Fibonacci helicoidal(FH)with different layup sequences and quasi-isotropic configurations are studied.The model is validated,and parametric studies are conducted.These studies investigate the effects of layup configurations,side-to-thickness ratio,modulus ratios,boundary conditions,and loading conditions at different load amplitudes on the nonlinear vibration and nonlinear bending behaviors of bio-inspired composite plates.The results show that the laminate sequence exerts a substantial impact on both nonlinear natural frequencies and nonlinear bending behaviors.Moreover,this influence varies across different side-to-thickness ratios and boundary conditions of the bio-inspired composite plate.
文摘In the fabrication and monitoring of parts in composite structures,which are being used more and more in a variety of engineering applications,the prediction and fatigue failure detection in composite materials is a difficult problem.This difficulty arises from several factors,such as the lack of a comprehensive investigation of the fatigue failure phenomena,the lack of a well-defined fatigue damage theory used for fatigue damage prediction,and the inhomogeneity of composites because of their multiple internal borders.This study investigates the fatigue behavior of carbon fiber reinforced with epoxy(CFRE)laminated composite plates under spectrum loading utilizing a uniqueDeep LearningNetwork consisting of a convolutional neural network(CNN).Themethod includes establishing Finite Element Model(FEM)in a plate model under a spectrum fatigue loading.Then,a CNN is trained for fatigue behavior prediction.The training phase produces promising results,showing the model’s performance with 94.21%accuracy,92.63%regression,and 91.55%F-score.To evaluate the model’s reliability,a comparison is made between fatigue data from the CNN and the FEM.It was found that the error band for this comparison is less than 0.3878MPa,affirming the accuracy and reliability of the proposed technique.The proposed method results converge with available experimental results in the literature,thus,the study suggests the broad applicability of this method to other different composite structures.

文摘As-rolled titanium/steel composite plate has poor plastic deformation ability,and it is difficult to achieve synergistic deformation,especially for dissimilar metals with very different plastic deformation abilities.The 304/TC4 composite plate with corrugated interface was manufactured using the asymmetric rolling with local strong stress method.The changing rules of bonding strength and synergistic deformation ability of corrugated interface under different annealing process parameters were studied.The results show that in the range of 550–850℃,especially after the temperature exceeds 650℃,with increasing the annealing temperature and time,the difference of microstructure between peak and trough positions increases,and the bonding strength of the composite plate decreases gradually.Especially,the interfacial bonding strength of the plate sharply decreases at 750℃ due to the rapid growth of intermetallic compounds at the interface and the diffusion holes caused by the difference of element diffusion.The 304/TC4 composite plate has the best synergistic deformation ability when annealing at 650℃/2 h,with the elongation reaching 35%and the tensile strength decreasing to 852 MPa.High interfacial bonding strength and moderate matrix recovery are important prerequisites for synergistic deformation of composite plates.

文摘Edge defects significantly impact the forming quality of Mg/Al composite plates during the rolling process.This study aims to develop an effective rolling technique to suppress these defects.First,an enhanced Lemaitre damage model with a generalized stress state damage prediction mechanism was used to evaluate the key mechanical factors contributing to defect formation.Based on this evaluation,an embedded composite rolling technique was proposed.Subsequently,comparative validation was conducted at 350℃ with a 50% reduction ratio.Results showed that the plates rolled using the embedded composite rolling technique had smooth surfaces and edges,with no macroscopic cracks observed.Numerical simulation indicated that,compared to conventional processes,the proposed technique reduced the maximum edge stress triaxiality of the plates from-0.02 to-1.56,significantly enhancing the triaxial compressive stress effect at the edges,which suppressed void nucleation and growth,leading to a 96%reduction in damage values.Mechanical property evaluations demonstrated that,compared to the conventional rolling process,the proposed technique improved edge bonding strength and tensile strength by approximately 67.7%and 118%,respectively.Further microstructural characterization revealed that the proposed technique,influenced by the restriction of deformation along the transverse direction(TD),weakened the plastic flow in the TD and enhanced plastic flow along the rolling direction(RD),resulting in higher grain boundary density and stronger basal texture.This,in turn,improved the toughness and transverse homogeneity of the plates.In summary,the embedded composite rolling technique provides crucial technical guidance for the preparation of Mg-based composite plates.

文摘The effects of the reduction rate of the corrugated rolling on the microstructure and mechanical properties of TA1/TC4 composite plate that was prepared via corrugated rolling+flat rolling process were investigated.The finite element model was developed and validated for the corrugated rolling process of the composite plate.Experimental findings reveal the absence of significant defects and intermetallic compounds at the bonding interface.When the rolling temperature is 700℃with the reduction rate of 44%in the first pass of corrugated rolling,the tensile and interfacial shear strengths of the composite plate reach 749 and 403.97 MPa,respectively.The simulation results demonstrate that the plastic strain in the TC4 substrate is enhanced by corrugated rolling and the compressive stress at the trough is high.These results confirm that interfacial bonding is promoted by corrugated rolling,and the mechanical properties of the composite plate are improved significantly with the increase of reduction rate.

文摘The aluminum(Al)/steel transition joints used in ships are processed from composite plates,and their mechanical properties have a significant impact on the safety of ships.In this paper,the Al/steel composite plate was prepared using rolling,with 5083 aluminum plate as the cladding plate,Q235 steel plate as the substrate,and TA1 titanium(Ti)plate and DT4 pure iron(Fe)plate as the intermediate layers.The heterothermic billet was prepared through induction heating by the magnetic effects of the steel plate and the pure Fe plate,and then the Al/steel composite plate was obtained by rolling.The impacts of post-rolling cooling process on the microstructure and properties of the Al/Ti/pure Fe/steel composite plate were studied.The results manifested that the pure Fe/steel interface had a good composite effect.With the increase in the cooling rate,the bonding strength of the Al/Ti interface was raised,and that of the Ti/Fe interface was increased first and then decreased.When the oil cooling process was adopted,the Al/Ti/pure Fe/steel composite plate exhibited the highest comprehensive performance.The shear strength of the Al/Ti interface and the Ti/Fe interface was 102 MPa and 186 MPa,respectively.The plastic fracture was determined as the mode of interface fracture.

文摘The prediction of the rolling force and thickness ratio plays an important role in the development and application of bimetallic composite plates.To analyze the rolling force of the bimetallic composite plate more accurately,a novel hypothesis based on Orowan's theory was proposed.The variation in the thickness of each differential element at different positions was considered to establish the analytical model.According to the characteristics of bimetallic composite plate rolling,the rolling deformation can be divided into forward and backward slip zones.The initial thickness ratio after rolling was predetermined by the thickness ratio before rolling;the rolling force balance of the upper and lower rollers was considered the convergence condition;and the final thickness ratio of the bimetallic composite plate was obtained by iterative calculation.The calculation results of the analytical model were compared with the measured and simulated data.The results showed that the errors in the calculation of the rolling force and thickness ratio were both less than 10%.The analytical model has high precision,meets engineering requirements,and has important reference significance for rolling process optimization and thickness ratio prediction.

文摘Current research on the fabrication of rolled composite plates primarily focuses on processing and bonding mechanisms.Compared with hot-rolling technology,the electrically assisted rolling process has demonstrated excellent performance in interfacial bonding effects.However,the influence of different current loading modes on the interfacial recombination process of composite panels varies significantly.In this study,low-frequency electrically assisted rolling was used in the first pass to pre-bond a composite plate at a low reduction rate of 15%.High-frequency electrically assisted rolling was used during the second pass,and Al/Mg alloy composite plates were obtained.The interfacial microstructure and mechanical properties of the composite plate were coordinated regulation by designing the rolling reduction rate.The results showed the interfacial morphology of the alternating distribution of the melt-diffusion layer,diffusion layer,and the formation of a new Al/Mg bonding interface.At the melt-diffusion interface,the irregular intermetallic compounds(IMCs)and the new Al/Mg bonding interface were alternately distributed,and the IMCs contained theα-Mg,Mg17Al12,and Mg2Al3 phases.In addition,an extremely high shear strength of 78.26 MPa was achieved.Adhesion of the Mg alloy matrix was observed on the fracture surface of the Al alloy side.The high shear strength was mainly attributed to the formation of a unique interfacial structure and the appearance of a melt-diffusion layer.Compared to the diffusion-reduction interface,the regular rectangular IMCs and the new Al/Mg bonding interface were alternately distributed,and the IMCs consisted of the Mg17Al12 and Mg2Al3 phases.The shear test results showed that the shear strength of the interface reached 68.69 MPa,and a regular distribution of the Mg alloy matrix with dimples and the Al alloy matrix with a necking zone was observed on the fracture surface of the Al side.Tensile strength test results revealed a maximum value of 316.86 MPa for the Al/Mg alloy composite plate.The tensile and interfacial bonding strengths can be synchronously enhanced by coordinating the regulation of the interfacial structure.This study proposes a new electrically assisted rolling technology that is useful for the fabrication of composite plates with excellent mechanical properties.

文摘Currently,there are a limited number of dynamic models available for braided composite plates with large overall motions,despite the incorporation of three-dimensional(3D)braided composites into rotating blade components.In this paper,a dynamic model of 3D 4-directional braided composite thin plates considering braiding directions is established.Based on Kirchhoff's plate assumptions,the displacement variables of the plate are expressed.By incorporating the braiding directions into the constitutive equation of the braided composites,the dynamic model of the plate considering braiding directions is obtained.The effects of the speeds,braiding directions,and braided angles on the responses of the plate with fixed-axis rotation and translational motion,respectively,are investigated.This paper presents a dynamic theory for calculating the deformation of 3D braided composite structures undergoing both translational and rotational motions.It also provides a simulation method for investigating the dynamic behavior of non-isotropic material plates in various applications.
