Although it has demonstrated its advantage in ocean engineering applications, it still has some defects to be improved. In this paper, MPS method is extended to the large eddy simulation （LES） by coupling with a sub-particle-scale （SPS） turbulence model. The SPS turbulence model turns into the Reynolds stress terms in the filtered momentum equation, and the Smagorinsky model is introduced to describe the Reynolds stress terms. Although MPS method has the advantage in the simulation of the free surface flow, a lot of non-free surface particles are treated as free surface particles in the original MPS model. In this paper, we use a new free surface tracing method and the key point is ＂neighbor particle＂. In this new method, the zone around each particle is divided into eight parts, and the particle will be treated as a free surface particle as long as there are no ＂neighbor particles＂ in any two parts of the zone. As the number density parameter judging method has a high efficiency for the free surface particles tracing, we combine it with the neighbor detected method. First, we select out the particles which may be mistreated with high probabilities by using the number density parameter judging method. And then we deal with these particles with the neighbor detected method. By doing this, the new mixed free surface tracing method can reduce the mistreatment problem efficiently. The serious pressure fluctuation is an obvious defect in MPS method, and therefore an area-time average technique is used in this paper to remove the pressure fluctuation with a quite good result. With these improvements, the modified MPS-LES method is applied to simulate liquid sloshing problems with large deforming free surface. Results show that the modified MPS-LES method can simulate the large deforming free surface easily. It can not only capture the large impact pressure accurately on rolling tank wall but also can generate all physical phenomena successfully. The good agreement between numerical and experimental results proves that the modified MPS-LES method is a good CFD methodology in free surface flow simulations.展开更多

It was found that the ultimate tensile strength of the steel decreased with the increasing temperature from 25 to 100 ℃, reached the maximum value at 300 ℃, and then declined by a significant extent when the temperature further reached 400 ℃. The total elongations at 100, 200 and 300 ℃are at about the same level. The steel achieved optimal mechanical properties at 300 ℃due to the proper transformation behavior of retained austenite since the stability of retained austenite is largely dependent on the deforming temperature. When tested at 100 and 200 ℃, the retained aus tenite was reluctant to transform, while at the other temperatures, about 10 vol. % of retained aus- tenite transformed during the tensile tests. The relationship between the stability of retained austenite and the work hardening behavior of quenching and partitioning treated steels at different deforming temperatures was also studied and discussed in detail. In order to obtain excellent mechanical properties, the stability of retained austenite should be carefully controlled so that the effect of transforma tion-induced plasticity could take place continuously during plastic deformation.展开更多

Traditional methods often apply uniform deformation models, neglecting the biomechanical differences between rigid structures and soft tissues, which compromises registration accuracy, especially during significant bone displacements. Method To address this issue, we introduce RE-Reg, a rigid-elastic CT-CBCT image registration framework that jointly learns rigid bone motion and soft tissue deformation. RE-Reg incorporates a rigid alignment(RA) module to estimate global bone motion and an elastic deformation(ED) module to model soft tissue deformation, preserving bony structures through bone shape preservation(BSP) loss. Result Our comprehensive evaluation on publicly available datasets demonstrates that RE-Reg significantly outperforms existing methods in terms of registration accuracy and rigid bone structure preservation, achieving a 1.3% improvement in Dice similarity coefficient(DSC) and a 23% reduction in rigid bone deformation(%Δvol) compared with the best baseline. Conclusion This framework not only enhances anatomical fidelity but also ensures biomechanical plausibility and provides a valuable tool for image-guided orthopedic surgery.

文摘Diamonds were formed in the mantle lithosphere,mostly at depths of 150~200km in the centres of Precambrian cratons,the buoyant ancient cores of continents.From there they were normally transported into the upper crust in kimberlite pipes whose diamonds are largely colourless and light yellow related to trace element N(Ia type),although brown,green,and more rarely blue-coloured diamonds are related to lattice defect and trace amounts of H,more rarely B and Ni.Pink diamonds are extremely rare in the approximately 90 diamondiferous pipes mined globally.Although small quantities have been discovered elsewhere,about 90%have been mined from the ca.1.3Ga Argyle diamond pipe in Western Australia,with the Arkhangelskaya diamond pipe in Russia the only other significant source.The pink colour at both Argyle and Arkhangelskaya is unrelated to trace elements and instead results from absorption of light from nanoscale(550nm)defects related to shear stress and plastic deformation.Macroscopically,defects are shown by glide planes,lamellae,and grain lines imposed on the originally colourless diamonds derived from their mantle source.The key question is why these defects were uniquely acquired in diamonds in the Argyle and Arkhangelskaya pipes.Unlike most diamondiferous pipes,Argyle is a rare diamondiferous volatile-rich lamproite pipe that was emplaced into the multiply deformed and rifted NNE-trending Halls Creek Orogen on the margin of the Kimberley Craton.Similarly,Arkhangelskaya in the Devonian Lomonosov kimberlite cluster is a volatile-rich low-Ti type kimberlite,a close relative to lamproite,that was emplaced into the multiply deformed Lapland-Kola Orogen on the rifted margin of the Kola Craton.These craton margins are underlain by subduction-induced volatile-enriched metasomatized mantle lithosphere in contrast to the more primeval mantle under craton centres.It is thus likely that shear stresses were exacerbated at Argyle and Arkangelskaya by rapid vertical emplacement of the anomalous volatile-enriched magmas at supercritical pressures and temperatures,that induced catastrophic phase separation of these volatiles and'mini seismic events'during rapid pressure drops during ascent from 200km depth to the surface.Such a mechanism is consistent with the presence of strongly resorbed and plastically deformed small brown industrial diamonds in the Argyle pipe.From a China perspective,it is potentially important that at 1.3Ga the alkaline Argyle pipe in northern Australia is placed adjacent to the North China Craton(NCC),with numerous world-class mineral deposits including the giant ca.1.4~1.2Ga alkaline Bayan Obo REE system on its margin.However,it is the southeastern margin of the Yangtze Craton and the Jiangnan Orogen with their lamproite pipes derived from metasomatized mantle lithosphere that present the most prospective regions for pink diamond occurrences.
文摘The strength and damping properties of Co-Ni-Cr-Mo-based alloys with 0.5wt%Nb addition after various plastic deformation and heat treatment processes were investigated.Through Vickers hardness tests,free resonance Young's modulus measurements,and microstructure analysis,the effects of dislocation density,vacancy formation,and recrystallization on the alloy performance were clarified.Results indicate that increasing the rolling reduction enhances damping property due to higher dislocation density,whereas aging below the recrystallization temperature reduces damping property via dislocation pinning by the Suzuki effect.Recrystallization heat treatment restores the original structure and damping level.This alloy possesses tensile strength of approximately 1500 MPa and logarithmic decrement valueδ^(-1) in the range of 2×10^(-4)–3×10^(-4),demonstrating superior mechanical properties compared with the Ti-based alloys,which makes it an excellent candidate material for ultrasonic tools and medical applications.

文摘The multi-principal element characteristic of high-entropy alloys has revolutionized the conventional alloy design concept of single-principal element,endowing them with excellent mechanical properties.However,owing to this multi-principal element nature,high-entropy alloys exhibit complex deformation behavior dominated by alternating and coupled deformation mechanisms.Therefore,elucidating these intricate deformation mechanisms remains a key challenge in current research.Neutron diffraction(ND)techniques offer distinct advantages over traditional microscopic methods for characterizing such complex deformation behavior.The strong penetration capability of neutrons enables in-situ,real-time,and non-destructive detection of structural evolution in most centimeter-level bulk samples under complex environments,and ND allows precise characterization of lattice site occupations for light elements,such as C and O,and neighboring elements.This review discussed the principles of ND,experiment procedures,and data analysis.Combining with recent advances in the research about face-centered cubic high-entropy alloy,typical examples of using ND to investigate the deformation behavior were summarized,ultimately revealing deformation mechanisms dominated by dislocations,stacking faults,twinning,and phase transformations.

文摘Wire arc additive manufacturing(WAAM)has emerged as a promising approach for fabricating large-scale components.However,conventional WAAM still faces challenges in optimizing microstructural evolution,minimizing additive-induced defects,and alleviating residual stress and deformation,all of which are critical for enhancing the mechanical performance of the manufactured parts.Integrating interlayer friction stir processing(FSP)into WAAM significantly enhances the quality of deposited materials.However,numerical simulation research focusing on elucidating the associated thermomechanical coupling mechanisms remains insufficient.A comprehensive numerical model was developed to simulate the thermomechanical coupling behavior in friction stir-assisted WAAM.The influence of post-deposition FSP on the coupled thermomechanical response of the WAAM process was analyzed quantitatively.Moreover,the residual stress distribution and deformation behavior under both single-layer and multilayer deposition conditions were investigated.Thermal analysis of different deposition layers in WAAM and friction stir-assisted WAAM was conducted.Results show that subsequent layer deposition induces partial remelting of the previously solidified layer,whereas FSP does not cause such remelting.Furthermore,thermal stress and deformation analysis confirm that interlayer FSP effectively mitigates residual stresses and distortion in WAAM components,thereby improving their structural integrity and mechanical properties.

文摘Quantitative assessment of microscale slip activities and plastic localizations is essential for understanding the complex deformation mechanisms in crystalline materials.However,few experimental studies have been able to dynamically measure the deformation fields of rapidly evolving slip activities at the microscale.In this study,we used the Sampling Moire?Method(SMM)to directly measure the dynamic deformation fields of slip activities in Nickel-Based Single-Crystal(NBSC)superalloy under in-situ tensile test,and the strain and displacement fields under the evolving microplastic events with intense slip activities around the notch of the NBSC superalloy specimen were obtained for the first time.The dynamic evolution of slip bands was quantitatively characterized through detailed statistical analysis of strains and displacements under different loads.The locations of the initial appearance of slip traces were successfully predicted by the regions of plasticity localization.The results show that the deformation fields exhibit both high spatial and temporal resolutions,enabling the capture of nanometer-scale displacement fields and visualization of the dynamic fluidity of slip accumulation.This method demonstrates the superiority of the dynamic characterization of the plastic deformation field at the microscale and the promise of its application for characterizing the slip activities of various crystalline metals.
文摘The structures of even-even Gd and Dy isotopes around N=100 were investigated using a fully self-consistent microscopic model.The systematics of the exited 2_(1)^(+)and 4_(1)^(+)energies reveal a peak-like structure at N=100 along the Gd(Z=64)and Dy(Z=66)isotopic chains.This supports the evidence for a subshell gap near N=100.The nuclear structure properties studied are important to understand the r-process elemental abundance peak at A~160.

文摘A Hybrid Free-Form Deformation(HFFD)method is developed to improve shape preservation in mesh deformation for perforated surfaces,which traditional Free-Form Deformation(FFD)techniques struggle to handle effectively.The proposed method enables high-fidelity parameterized deformation for both flat and curved perforated surfaces while maintaining mesh quality with minimal geometric distortion.To evaluate its effectiveness,comparative studies between HFFD and conventional FFD methods are conducted,demonstrating superior performance in mesh quality and geometric fidelity.The HFFD-based framework is further applied to the Multidisciplinary Design Optimization(MDO)of a double-wall turbine blade leading edge.Results indicate an 11.6%increase in cooling efficiency and a 16.21%reduction in maximum stress.Additionally,compared to traditional geometry-based parameterization in MDO,the HFFD approach improves model processing efficiency by 84.15%and overall optimization efficiency by20.05%.These findings demonstrate HFFD's potential to significantly improve complex engineering design optimization by achieving precise shape preservation and improving computational efficiency.

文摘Wetting deformation in earth-rockfill dams is a critical factor influencingdam safety.Although numerous mathematical models have been developed to describe this phenomenon,most of them rely on empirical formulations and lack prior knowledge of model parameters,which is essential for Bayesian parameter inversion to enhance accuracy and reduce uncertainty.This study introduces a datadriven approach to establishing prior knowledge of earth-rockfill dams.Driving factors are utilized to determine the potential range of model parameters,and settlement changes within this range are calculated.The results are iteratively compared with actual monitoring data until the calculated range encompasses the observed data,thereby providing prior knowledge of the model parameters.The proposed method is applied to the right-bank earth-rockfilldam of Danjiangkou.Employing a Gibbs sample size of 30,000,the proposed method effectively calibrates the prior knowledge of the wetting model parameters,achieving a root mean square error(RMSE)of 5.18 mm for the settlement predictions.By comparison,the use of non-informative priors with sample sizes of 30,000 and 50,000 results in significantly larger RMSE values of 11.97 mm and 16.07 mm,respectively.Furthermore,the computational efficiencyof the proposed method is demonstrated by an inversion computation time of 902 s for 30,000 samples,which is notably shorter than the 1026 s and 1558 s required for noninformative priors with 30,000 and 50,000 samples,respectively.These findingsunderscore the superior performance of the proposed approach in terms of both prediction accuracy and computational efficiency.These results demonstrate that the proposed method not only improves the predictive accuracy but also enhances the computational efficiency,enabling optimal parameter identificationwith reduced computational effort.This approach provides a robust and efficientframework for advancing dam safety assessments.

文摘Investigating the spatial distribution of coseismic rupture,postseismic afterslip,and their interactions is essential for understanding the heterogeneous frictional characteristics of faults,and seismic hazard assessments.This study offers a comprehensive analysis of both seismic and aseismic slip of the 2022 MW6.7 Menyuan earthquake,which took place at the western terminus of the Tianzhu seismic gap located in the northeastern Qinghai-Xizang Plateau.By integrating near-field GNSS measurements,In SAR line-of-sight(LOS)displacements,and surface rupture data,we refined the coseismic slip distribution using a kinematic inversion and a mechanically constrained model.Our results reveal an unexpectedly large coseismic slip of about 3.3 m at shallow depths(less than about 6 km),along with minimal shallow slip deficit—features rarely observed in earthquakes of similar magnitude globally.The mechanically constrained approach yields a static stress drop of about 6.4 MPa.Additionally,we invert for the afterslip distribution from cumulative postseismic GNSS displacements recorded during the initial 2.7 years subsequent to the mainshock.The afterslip is predominantly situated downdip of the coseismic rupture zone,releasing 28.5%of the coseismic moment.There is a tight correlation between the spatiotemporal evolution of aftershocks and the downdip afterslip,with limited contributions from viscoelastic relaxation and poroelastic rebound which indicates that the afterslip mechanism primarily controls early postseismic deformation.
文摘Because of the developed surface of the Triply PeriodicMinimumSurface(TPMS)structures,polylactide(PLA)products with a TPMS structure are thought to be promising bio soluble implants with the potential for targeted drug delivery.For implants,mechanical properties are key performance characteristics,so understanding the deformation and failure mechanisms is essential for selecting the appropriate implant structure.The deformation and fracture processes in PLA samples with different interior architectures have been studied through computer simulation and experimental research.Two TPMS topologies,the Schwarz Diamond and Gyroid architectures,were used for the sample construction by 3D printing.ANSYS software was utilized to simulate compressive deformation.It was found that under the same load,the vonMises stresses in the Gyroid structure are higher than those in the Schwartz Diamond structure,which was associated with the different orientations of the cells in the studied structures in relation to the direction of the loading axis.The deformation process occurs in the local regions of the studied TPMS structures.Maximum von Mises stresses were observed in the vertical parts of the structures oriented along the load direction.It was found that,unlike the Gyroid,the Schwartz Diamond structure contains a frame that forms unique stiffening ribs,which ensures the redistribution of the load under the vertical loading direction.An analysis of the mechanical characteristics of PLA samples with the Schwartz Diamond and Gyroid structures produced by the Fused Deposition Modeling(FDM)method was correlated with computer simulation.The Schwarz Diamond-type structure was shown to have a higher absorption energy than the Gyroid one.A study of the fracture in PLA samples with various cell sizes revealed a particular feature related to the samples’periodic surface topology and the 3D printing process.Scanning electron microscopic(SEM)studies of the samples deformed by compression showed thatwith an increase in the density of the samples,the failure mechanism changes from ductile to quasi-brittle due to the complex participation of both cell deformation and fiber deformation.

文摘Background Computed tomography(CT) and cone-beam computed tomography(CBCT) image registration play pivotal roles in computer-assisted navigation for orthopedic surgery. Traditional methods often apply uniform deformation models, neglecting the biomechanical differences between rigid structures and soft tissues, which compromises registration accuracy, especially during significant bone displacements. Method To address this issue, we introduce RE-Reg, a rigid-elastic CT-CBCT image registration framework that jointly learns rigid bone motion and soft tissue deformation. RE-Reg incorporates a rigid alignment(RA) module to estimate global bone motion and an elastic deformation(ED) module to model soft tissue deformation, preserving bony structures through bone shape preservation(BSP) loss. Result Our comprehensive evaluation on publicly available datasets demonstrates that RE-Reg significantly outperforms existing methods in terms of registration accuracy and rigid bone structure preservation, achieving a 1.3% improvement in Dice similarity coefficient(DSC) and a 23% reduction in rigid bone deformation(%Δvol) compared with the best baseline. Conclusion This framework not only enhances anatomical fidelity but also ensures biomechanical plausibility and provides a valuable tool for image-guided orthopedic surgery.

文摘The contact deformation and buckling of elastic rods against rigid surfaces represent a prevalent phenomenon in applications such as oil drilling,arterial stents,and energy harvesting.This has attracted widespread attention from researchers.In this paper,the deformation and buckling behaviors of a circular arch subject to compression by a rigid plate are investigated with a planar elastic rod model that incorporates tension,shearing,and bending.In comparison with the existing models that solely consider the bending energy,the deflection curve,the internal force distribution,and the critical load of the present model show good agreement with the finite element results.Through the dimensional analysis and order-of-magnitude estimation,we examine the factors influencing the critical load.The study reveals that the semi-central angle of the arch has the most significant effect.The dimensionless geometric parameter describing arch slenderness becomes prominent when the semi-central angle is less than 30°,while Poisson's ratio and the cross-sectional shear correction factor exhibit negligible influence.Furthermore,the variation in the proportions of strain energy components during critical buckling is presented with respect to the semi-central angle and the geometric parameter,thereby delineating the applicable ranges of both the original model(OM)and the modified model(MM).
文摘Sliver defects are a group of low-to-medium angle misoriented grains in Ni-based single crystal superalloys that have received more attention in recent years.Occurrence of these defects can negatively affect the mechanical properties of single crystal components.Therefore,studying the mechanisms of sliver formation and its effects on the final properties of alloys is of great importance.In this article,recent studies on the sliver defects were reviewed.Accordingly,the mechanisms of sliver formation as well as factors contributing to sliver initiation were studied.Additionally,effects of slivers on the mechanical properties of single crystal superalloys were discussed.Dendrite deformation and dendrite fracture are the main mechanisms for the sliver formation.This is a consequence of local stress concentration on dendrites during solidification.Therefore,locations such as inclusions,pores,geometrically complex areas,mould walls,freckle channels,etc.can be considered as the potential factors that promote the sliver initiation.Sliver formation significantly degrades the creep life of single-crystal superalloys.Studies have shown that when crystallographic misorientation exceeds approximately15°,creep life can be reduced by up to 47%.Despite the absence of a standardized criterion for predicting or preventing sliver initiation and propagation,their occurrence can be minimized through optimization of solidification parameters,careful grain selection,proper casting geometry design,and rigorous control of material purity and equipment conditions.
