A total of fifteen yearling indigenous short-eared Somali goat breeds with an initial weight of 15.2 ± 0.30 kg were assigned to three treatment groups using completely randomized design. Pigeon pea (Pp) and Moringa stenopetala (MS) feeds were formulated using 0%, 5%, and 10% inclusion levels of MSLM and PPLM as experimental diets, respectively. The feed of the experiment was prepared in two levels (2 kg of Moringa stenopetala and 2 kg of pigeon pea) and was supplemented to experimental animals in treatments one and two, respectively. The average e initial body weight of selected male goats was 18.82 ± 0.37, 18.8 ± 0.37 and 17.8 ± 0.37 kg under treatment groups T1, T2 and control respectively. Data was analyzed using general linear model (GLM) procedure of SAS computer package Version 9.0 (SAS, 2002). The final weights gain (FWG) of goats on T1 and T2 of experimental group was significantly (P 0.05) the final weight gain of goat supplemented on Moringa stenopetala (T1) and pigeon pea levels (T2). The mean average weight gains (AWG) obtained from the supplemented group in this study were 7.50 ± 0.37 and 7.82 ± 0.37 kg for T1 and T2, whereas mean weight gains for un-supplemented goats were found to be 6.26 ± 0.37 kg. Feeding of dried Moringa stenopetala and pigeon pea leaves mixture improved body weights and average daily body weight gain without affecting feed intake and overall health of Somali goat breed. As Moringa stenopetala and pigeon pea leaves are rich nitrogen/protein source, they can be used effectively as substitute for conventional concentrate in the diet of growing goats at small holder farmer’s level where they can be grown in abundance. Therefore, for higher quality of forage and higher total DM yield for animal feeding, moringa should be harvested at wider harvesting intervals of at least 6th- to 8th-week intervals. Similarly, for pigeon peas, 4- to 6-week harvesting interval can result in optimum forage as well as feed quality and resulted in better growth performances for Somali short-eared goat breeds.展开更多

文摘This study was conducted at Fafan Research Center, Golajo research site to evaluate the effect of Moringa stenopetala and pigeon pea leaf supplementation on growth performance of short-eared Somali goat breed. A total of fifteen yearling indigenous short-eared Somali goat breeds with an initial weight of 15.2 ± 0.30 kg were assigned to three treatment groups using completely randomized design. Pigeon pea (Pp) and Moringa stenopetala (MS) feeds were formulated using 0%, 5%, and 10% inclusion levels of MSLM and PPLM as experimental diets, respectively. The feed of the experiment was prepared in two levels (2 kg of Moringa stenopetala and 2 kg of pigeon pea) and was supplemented to experimental animals in treatments one and two, respectively. The average e initial body weight of selected male goats was 18.82 ± 0.37, 18.8 ± 0.37 and 17.8 ± 0.37 kg under treatment groups T1, T2 and control respectively. Data was analyzed using general linear model (GLM) procedure of SAS computer package Version 9.0 (SAS, 2002). The final weights gain (FWG) of goats on T1 and T2 of experimental group was significantly (P 0.05) the final weight gain of goat supplemented on Moringa stenopetala (T1) and pigeon pea levels (T2). The mean average weight gains (AWG) obtained from the supplemented group in this study were 7.50 ± 0.37 and 7.82 ± 0.37 kg for T1 and T2, whereas mean weight gains for un-supplemented goats were found to be 6.26 ± 0.37 kg. Feeding of dried Moringa stenopetala and pigeon pea leaves mixture improved body weights and average daily body weight gain without affecting feed intake and overall health of Somali goat breed. As Moringa stenopetala and pigeon pea leaves are rich nitrogen/protein source, they can be used effectively as substitute for conventional concentrate in the diet of growing goats at small holder farmer’s level where they can be grown in abundance. Therefore, for higher quality of forage and higher total DM yield for animal feeding, moringa should be harvested at wider harvesting intervals of at least 6th- to 8th-week intervals. Similarly, for pigeon peas, 4- to 6-week harvesting interval can result in optimum forage as well as feed quality and resulted in better growth performances for Somali short-eared goat breeds.

文摘Surface engineering plays a crucial role in improving the performance of high energy materials,and polydopamine(PDA)is widely used in the field of energetic materials for surface modification and functionalization.In order to obtain high-quality HMX@PDA-based PBX explosives with high sphericity and a narrow particle size distribution,composite microspheres were prepared using co-axial droplet microfluidic technology.The formation mechanism,thermal behavior,mechanical sensitivity,electrostatic spark sensitivity,compressive strength,and combustion performance of the microspheres were investigated.The results show that PDA can effectively enhance the interfacial interaction between the explosive particles and the binder under the synergistic effect of chemical bonds and the physical"mechanical interlocking"structure.Interface reinforcement causes the thermal decomposition temperature of the sample microspheres to move to a higher temperature,with the sensitivity to impact,friction,and electrostatic sparks(for S-1)increasing by 12.5%,31.3%,and 81.5%respectively,and the compressive strength also increased by 30.7%,effectively enhancing the safety performance of the microspheres.Therefore,this study provides an effective and universal strategy for preparing high-quality functional explosives,and also provides some reference for the safe use of energetic materials in practical applications.

文摘NH_(3)-SCR(SCR:Selective catalytic reduction)is an effective technology for the de-NO_(x)process from both mobile and stationary pollution sources,and the most commonly used catalysts are the vanadia-based catalysts.An innovative V_(2)O_(5)-CeO_(2)/TaTiO_(x)catalyst for NO_(x)removal was prepared in this study.The influences of Ce and Ta in the V_(2)O_(5)-CeO_(2)/TaTiO_(x)catalyst on the SCR performance and physicochemical properties were investigated.The V_(2)O_(5)-CeO_(2)/TaTiO_(x)catalyst not only exhibited excellent SCR activity in a wide temperature window,but also presented strong resistance to H_(2)Oand SO_(2)at 275◦C.A series of characterizationmethods was used to study the catalysts,including H2-temperature programmed reduction,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,NH_(3)-temperature programmed desorption,etc.It was discovered that a synergistic effect existed between Ce and Ta species.The introduction of Ce and Ta enlarged the specific surface area,increased the amount of acid sites and the ratio of Ce^(3+),(V^(3+)+V^(4+))and Oα,and strengthened the redox capability which were related to synergistic effect between Ce and Ta species,significantly improving the NH_(3)-SCR activity.

文摘The Jahn-Teller effect of Mn^(3+)brings drastic structural changes to MnO_(2)-based materials and accelerates the destruction and deactivation of the internal structure of the materials,thus leading to severe capacity fading and phase change of MnO_(2)-based materials in aqueous zinc ion batteries(AZIBs).Here,this study doped high valent vanadium ions into MnO_(2)(VMO-x)to inhibit manganese's Jahn-Teller effect.Through a series of characterizations,such as X-ray diffraction(XRD),Raman spectroscopy,and scanning electron microscopy(SEM),it was discovered that the introduction of vanadium ions effectively increased the interlayer spacing of MnO_(2),facilitating the transport of ions into the interlayer.Additionally,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR)and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)demonstrated vanadium doped could effectively adjust the electronic structure,decreasing the average oxidation state of manganese,thereby inhibiting the Jahn-Teller effect and significantly enhancing the stability of the VMO-x cathode.The theoretical calculation showed that introducing vanadium ions enhanced the interaction between the main material and Zn^(2+),optimized its electron transport capacity,and led to better electrical conductivity and reaction kinetics of the VMO-5.Benefiting from this,the VMO-5 cathode exhibited an outstanding capacity of 283 mAh/g and maintained a capacity retention rate of 79%after 2000 cycles,demonstrating excellent electrochemical performance.Furthermore,the mechanism of H^(+)/Zn^(2+)co-intercalation/deintercalation was demonstrated through mechanism analysis.Finally,the test results of the pouch cell demonstrated the excellent flexibility and safety exhibited by the VMO-5 make it have great potential in flexible devices.This work presented a novel approach to doping high valence metal ions into manganese-based electrodes for AZIBs.

文摘As the goal of"low carbon"sustainable development becomes more salient,the corporations'environmental,social,and governance(ESG)practices are under higher visibility.How to promote the ESG performance of corporations has become a big challenge that needs to be solved.Spatial econometrics methods based on panel data on listed corporations in the period from 2018 to 2023 are used in the paper to empirically analyze the peer effect of a corporation from the view of strategic interaction.The results found relatively positive industry peer effects as well as regional peer effects.However,the latter is much weaker.Industry-wise results indicate that most sectors demonstrate positive peer competition on ESG issues,with only a few,like the special equipment manufacturing industry,not showing significant peer effects.The empirical results in this paper support the mode of cooperative interaction among firms,help broaden the scope of understanding factors that encourage ESG practices,and suggest relevant policies for boosting corporate social responsibilities and sustainable development through encouraging factors.

文摘La-Mg-Ni-based hydrogen storage alloys with superlattice structures are the new generation anode material for nickel metal hydride(Ni-MH)batteries owing to the advantages of high capacity and exceptional activation properties.However,the cycling stability is not currently satisfactory enough which plagues its application.Herein,a strategy of partially substituting La with the Y element is proposed to boost the capacity durability of La-Mg-Ni-based alloys.Furthermore,phase structure regulation is implemented simultaneously to obtain the A5 B19-type alloy with good crystal stability specifically.It is found that Y promotes the phase formation of the Pr5 Co19-type phase after annealing at 985℃.The alloy containing Y contributes to the superior rate capability resulting from the promoted hydrogen diffusion rate.Notably,Y substitution enables strengthening the anti-pulverization ability of the alloy in terms of increasing the volume match between[A_(2)B_(4)]and[AB5]subunits,and effectively enhances the anti-corrosion ability of the alloy due to high electronegativity,realizing improved long-term cycling stability of the alloy from 74.2%to 78.5%after cycling 300 times.The work is expected to shed light on the composition and structure design of the La-Mg-Ni-based hydrogen storage alloy for Ni-MH batteries.

文摘Re-entrant honeycombs are widely used in safeguard structures due to their geometric simplicity and excellent energy absorption capacities.However,traditional re-entrant honeycombs exhibit insufficient stiffness and stability owing to the lack of internal support.This paper proposes a new hybrid honeycomb by integrating a chiral component inside the re-entrant honeycomb.Since Young's modulus is a key parameter to evaluate the energy absorption performance and stiffness,an analytical model is given to predict the effective Young's modulus of the proposed hybrid honeycomb.It is found that the optimal design scheme is to directly insert a circular ring inside the re-entrant honeycomb.The normalized specific energy absorption(SEA)of the hybrid honeycomb is 95%larger than that of the traditional re-entrant honeycomb.The normalized SEA first increases to a peak value and then decreases with the cell wall thickness.The optimal thickness of the cell wall for the maximum SEA is derived in terms of the geometric configuration of the unit cell.The normalized SEA first decreases to a valley value and then increases with the re-entrant angle.A longer horizontal cell wall results in a smaller normalized SEA.This paper provides a new design method for safeguard structures with high stiffness and energy absorption performance.

文摘To elucidate the yielding performance of compact yielding anchor cables in working state,a yielding mechanical model incorporating extrusion friction and fastening rotation under confining pressure is constructed.The yielding resistance enhancement effect(ω)caused by working environment constraints is evaluated through multi-layer composite sleeve hole expansion analysis,forming a theoretical framework for calculating the working yielding force.Laboratory and in-situ pull-out tests are conducted to determine the yielding performance and validate the analytical theory.The main conclusions are:(1)Yielding force and energy-release capacity increase withω,significantly outperforming the unconfined state.(2)In-situ tests under varying rockmass and geostress conditions(F1–F3)determine the yielding force increases to 183.4–290.1,204.0–290.8,and 235.0–327.1 kN.(3)The slight deviation(–12.5%to 6.2%)between the theoretical and measured yielding force confirms that the analytical theory effectively describes the working yielding performance.(4)ωincreases with higher geostress and improved rock mechanical properties,with initial geostress(σ_(0))and elastic modulus of surrounding rock(E_(3))identified as critical parameters.

文摘ZrCoRE(RE denotes rare earth elements)non-evaporable getter films have significant applications in vacuum packaging of micro-electro mechanical system devices because of their excellent gas adsorption performance,low activation temperature and environmental friendliness.The films were deposited using DC magnetron sputtering with argon and krypton gases under various deposition pressures.The effects of sputtering gas type and pressure on the morphology and hydrogen adsorption performance of ZrCoRE films were investigated.Results show that the films prepared in Ar exhibit a relatively dense structure with fewer grain boundaries.The increase in Ar pressure results in more grain boundaries and gap structures in the films.In contrast,films deposited in Kr display a higher density of grain boundaries and cluster structures,and the films have an obvious columnar crystal structure,with numerous interfaces and gaps distributed between the columnar structures,providing more paths for gas diffusion.As Kr pressure increases,the film demonstrates more pronounced continuous columnar structure growth,accompanied by deeper and wider grain boundaries.This structural configuration provides a larger specific surface area,which significantly improves the hydrogen adsorption speed and capacity.Consequently,high Ar and Kr pressures are beneficial to improve the adsorption performance.

文摘This study aims to assess the comprehensive strengthening effect of a steel-ultra high performance concrete(UHPC)composite strengthening method.The axial force-moment interaction curve(N-M curve)was calculated in a novel way,using cross-sectional strains at ultimate states as well as real-time stress measurements for each material.The enclosed area of the N-M curve was defined as a comprehensive performance index for the system.We validate our approach with comparisons to numerical modeling and full-scale four-point bending experiments.Additionally,strengthening effects were compared for different sagging and hogging moments based on material stress responses,and the impact of various strengthening parameters was analyzed.We find that the N-M curve of the strengthened cross-section envelops that of the un-strengthened cross-section.Notably,improvements in flexural capacity are greater under sagging moments during the large eccentric failure stage,and greater under hogging moments during the small eccentric failure stage.This discrepancy is attributed to the strength utilization of strengthening materials.These findings provide a reference for understanding the strengthening effects and parameters of steel-UHPC composite.

文摘The self-healing function is considered one of the effective ways to address structural damage and improve interfacial bonding in Energetic composite materials(ECMs).However,the currently prepared ECMs with self-healing function have problems such as irregular particle shape and uneven distribution of components,which affect the efficient play of self-healing function.In this paper,HMX-based energetic microspheres with self-healing function were successfully prepared by microchannel technology,which showed excellent self-healing effect in both Polymer-bonded explosives(PBXs)and Composite solid propellants(CSPs).The experimental results show that the HMX-based energetic microspheres with different binder contents prepared by microchannel technology show regular shape,HMX crystal particles are uniformly wrapped by self-healing binder(GAPU).When the content of GAPU in HMX-based energetic microspheres is 10%,PBXs show excellent self-healing effect and mechanical safety is improved by 400%(raw HMX vs S4,5 J vs 25 J).As a high-energy component,the burning rate of CSPs is increased by 359.4%,the time(burning temperature>1700℃)is prolonged by 333.3%,and the maximum impulse force is increased by 107.3%(CSP-H vs CSP-S4,0.84 mm/s vs 3.87 mm/s,0.06 s vs 0.26 s,0.82 m N vs 1.70 m N).It also has excellent storage performance.The preparation of HMX-based energetic microspheres with self-healing function by microchannel technology provides a new strategy to improve the storage performance of ECMs and the combustion performance of CSPs.
文摘This research aims to improve the power output of a horizontal axis wind turbine(HAWT)by using an auxiliary rotor in front of the main rotor,this configuration is called a dual-rotor wind turbine(DRWT).The three-bladed main rotor has a diameter of 0.9 m and both rotors with NREL S826 airfoil.ANSYS Fluent CFD simulation was used to optimize the DRWT performance where the numerical model was solved using the Realizable k-εt urbulence model.Four parameters are used,diameter ratio between the auxiliary front rotor and the main rear rotor(D_(R)=0.25,D_(R)=0.5,and D_(R)=0.75),axial free stream velocity according to the normal wind speed range in Egypt(V_(o)=5 m/s,V_o=7.5 m/s,and V_(o)=10 m/s),tip speed ratio which ranges from 2 to 8,and the number of blades of the front rotor(B=2,B=3 and B=4).The results show that increasing the number of blades positively impacts performance but at lower tip speed ratios.Smaller diameter ratios yield better performance,while increasing wind speed results in higher power.The best performance was achieved at freestream velocity V_(o)=10 m/s,diameter ratio D_(R)=0.25,front rotor number of blades B=4,and tip speed ratioλ=5 in which the overall maximum power coefficient Cp max=0.552 with an increase with 36.75%compared to the single rotor case.

文摘In conventional piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers(PMUTs),the backside acoustic energy is often used inefficiently,resulting in up to half of the energy being wasted.Vacuum encapsulation can improve the energy utilization efficiency,but this technique is not compatible with state-of-the-art devices such as cantilever-based PMUTs.A closed back cavity provides an alternative method for effectively utilizing the backside acoustic energy.This paper investigates the effects of a closed back cavity on PMUT performance through theoretical analysis,simulations,and experimental verification.Increasing the cavity depth produces a periodic modulation of several key PMUT metrics,such as the relative frequency deviation and quality factor.The optimal cavity depth for PMUTs that ensures a robust resonant frequency and high quality factor is defined as a function of the acoustic wavelength.A closed back cavity also provides an effective method for continuously tuning the quality factor,and thus the bandwidth,of PMUTs.This work paves the way for air-coupled PMUTs with adjustable performance for various applications.

文摘Background:In the field of organizational behavior,various aspects that have an impact on employee well-being gradually become a focus of attention.Among them,performance pressure,which is a component of workplace stressors that has a great influence on employees’job performance as well as well-being,has been little studied.Therefore,this paper constructs a research model,which uses workplace anxiety as a mediating variable and vocational delay of gratification as a moderating variable,to explore the impact of performance pressure on employee well-being.Methods:Reliable data were collected by questionnaire method and data analysis was conducted with the help of SPSS 26.0.In this paper,the data statistics are carried out by correlation analysis,mediation effect analysis,and moderating effect analysis,and the regression analysis is further studied.Results:The finding shows that performance pressure impacts employee well-being negatively,and workplace anxiety has a significant negative impact on employee well-being.When the workplace anxiety variable is added,the negative impact of performance pressure on employee well-being is still significant.Therefore,it can be verified that workplace anxiety plays an intermediary role in the influencing mechanism of performance pressure on employee well-being.While high vocational delay satisfaction weakens the influence of performance pressure on employee well-being.It’s interesting that under the adjustment of low delayed gratification,low-performance pressure will lead to higher employee well-being,and the organization’s conscious reduction of performance pressure is conducive to improving employeewell-being,and under the adjustment of high delayed gratification,low-performance pressure leads to higher employee well-being,and high-performance pressure leads to lower employee well-being,which shows the weakening effect of high delayed gratification,that means vocational delay gratification plays a negative regulating role in the influencing mechanism of performance pressure and employee well-being.Conclusion:Under the mediating role of workplace anxiety,performance pressure has a significant negative impact on employee well-being,and in this influence mechanism,vocational delay gratification plays a significant negative moderating role.

文摘In wideband noncooperative interference cancellation,the reference signals obtained through auxiliary antennas are weighted to cancel with the interference signal.The correlation between the reference signal and the interference signal determines interference cancellation performance,while the auxiliary antenna array affects the correlation by influencing the amplitude and phase of the reference signals.This paper analyzes the effect of auxiliary antenna array on multiple performances of wideband noncooperative interference cancellation.Firstly,the array received signal model of wideband interference is established,and the weight vector coupled with the auxiliary antennas array manifold is solved by spectral analysis and eigen-subspace decomposition.Then,multiple performances which include cancellation resolution,grating null,wideband interference cancellation ratio(ICR),and convergence rate are quantitatively characterized with the auxiliary antenna array.It is obtained through analysis that the performances mutually restrict the auxiliary antenna array.Higher cancellation resolution requires larger array aperture,but when the number of auxiliary antennas is fixed,larger array aperture results in more grating nulls.When the auxiliary antennas are closer to the main antenna,the wideband ICR is improved,but the convergence rate is reduced.The conclusions are verified through simulation of one-dimensional uniform array and two-dimensional nonuniform array.The experiments of three arrays are compared,and the results conform well with simulation and support the theoretical analysis.

文摘Micro-/mesopore structures in carbon anode are highly desirable for increasing active sites and accelerating ion migration,favoring high capacity and rate performance.However,some structure-performance relationships still need to be clarified,and an in-depth understanding of how pore size and volume affect capacity and rate performance has rarely been mentioned.Herein,a series of carbon nanosheets with different micro-/mesopore sizes and volumes are precisely prepared.Detailed experimental analyses demonstrate that micropore volume rather than size is tightly responsible for capacity,resulting from its“accommodation effect”for ions.Conversely,mesopore size instead of volume is closely related to rate performance,which can be ascribed to its“channels effect”for ions.Capacity and rate performance first increase and then decrease with increasing micropore volume and mesopore size.In this work,the sample featured with the optimal micropore volume(1.6 cm^(3)·g^(-1))and mesopore size(2.55 nm)delivers the highest capacity(453 mAh·g^(-1)at 0.5 A·g^(-1))and excellent rate performance(235.1 mAh·g^(-1)at 2 A·g^(-1)).This work provides a new insight into the understanding of micro-/mesopore parameters and their effect on capacity and rate performance.
文摘This study investigates the spatial courting between digital economic signs and local monetary overall performance throughout ten provinces in Sumatra,Indonesia,from 2019 to 2022.As digitalization hastens economic and business sports,devices together with fintech lending,e-cash,debit card usage,and e-commerce are increasingly more diagnosed as capability drivers of regional increase.But,the unequal distribution of digital infrastructure and monetary literacy across regions raises issues approximately the inclusivity of these benefits.constructing upon current findings by using Miranti et al.(2024),this research employs spatial econometric fashions-particularly the Spatial Lag model(SLM)and Spatial mistakes model(SEM)-to evaluate how digital variables influence provincial financial overall performance while accounting for spatial spillover consequences.The results reveal that fintech lending and debit card usage exert a positive and significant impact on economic growth,whereas the effect of e-money is negative,suggesting potential substitution effects or access constraints.Spatial dependency is also evident,as demonstrated by the significant lambda coefficient in the SEM model.These findings highlight the importance of spatially coordinated digital policies,particularly in addressing disparities and enhancing digital financial inclusion.The study concludes with policy recommendations aimed at fostering inclusive and spatially balanced digital economic development in Sumatra.

文摘Background During the transition period,cows are prone to negative energy balance,which can lead to a decline in production performance and health in severe cases.In recent years,it has been discovered that bile acids(BAs)can act not only as fat emulsifiers but also as signaling molecules to regulate body metabolism.Although BAs have been used to some extent in monogastric and aquatic animals,their role in ruminants,particularly in transition cows,remains unclear.Therefore,this study aimed to determine the effects of BAs on the production performance,milk and plasma fatty acid and BA composition,and fecal microbiota in transition dairy cows.Results Forty-six healthy transition Holstein dairy cows with similar conditions were randomly divided into two groups and supplemented with 0 or 20 g/d of BAs from 21 d before the expected calving to 21 d after calving.The production performance was tracked until 60 d after calving.The results indicated that BA supplementation significantly improved postpartum milk fat content and yields as well as the yields of unsaturated fatty acids,monounsaturated fatty acids,and polyunsaturated fatty acids in milk.There was a significant increase in the concentration of triglyceride and the proportion of C≤16 fatty acids in the plasma of cows supplemented with BAs,while the concentration of β-hydroxybutyrate and the proportion of C>16 fatty acids in the plasma decreased significantly.BA supplementation significantly altered the composition of the fecal bacterial community and increased the relative abundance of bacteria beneficial for BA metabolism and transformation(Romboutsia,Clostridium sensu_stricto_6,and Clostridium sensu_stricto_1).Functional prediction analysis showed that the relative abundance of bile salt hydrolase,7 α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase,and BA inducible E as well as the pathways related to BA metabolism also significantly increased in cows supplemented BAs.In addition,BA supplementation significantly altered the composition of plasma and fecal BAs,particularly increasing circulating secondary BA concentration,which might induce the complete oxidation of fatty acids in the liver and further reduce the concentration of β-hydroxybutyrate.Conclusions These findings highlight the potential benefits of BA supplementation in improving milk yields and quality,as well as influencing metabolic pathways in transition dairy cows.Meanwhile,further studies are needed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and explore the broader implications of these results by using more tissue samples.

文摘The insufficient damping capabilities of aluminum alloy under low temperatures(<120℃)were addressed by developing high-damping laminated composites of NiTip/5052Al.This is achieved through the incorporation of varied pre-aging states of NiTi particles into the 5052Al matrix using a rolling composite technique.The aim is to enhance the application scope of aluminum alloy for vibration and noise reduction.The results demonstrated a distinct and integrated interface between the particle layer and the 5052Al alloy,with numerous interparticle interfaces within the particle layer.Increasing the aging temperature of the NiTi particles from 450 to 550℃ shifted the phase transition peaks of the composites to lower temperatures.The damping capacity of the laminated NiTip/5052Al composites notably surpasses that of the 5052Al alloy.At 28 and 66℃,the phase transformation damping peaks of the pre-aged NiTi particle layer reinforced 5052Al matrix composites are 1.93 and 2 times those of the 5052Al alloy at the corresponding temperatures,respectively.The collaborative impact of interparticle interface damping mechanism and the phase transformation damping mechanism of NiTi-reinforced particles significantly amplify the low-temperature damping performance of the laminated NiTip/5052Al composites.
