The material of the sphere is modeled as elastic perfectly plastic. Analysis is carried out to study the effect of varying modulus of elasticity and sphere radius in wide range of dimensionless interference until the inception of plasticity as well as in plastic range. Results are compared with previous elastic-plastic models. It is found that materials with Young’s modulus to yield strength (E/Y) ratio less than and greater than 300 show strikingly different contact phenomena. The dependency of E on dimensionless interference at which the plastic region fully covers the surface is observed. However with different radius, finite element study exhibits similar elastic-plastic phenomena.展开更多

In this paper, the differences among various models of shape of asperity investigate using the Finite Element Method (FEM) and various analytical models. The contact stresses in rough surfaces are calculated analytically using various asperity shape models. Finite element analysis is also carried out assuming three types of material properties namely, the linear, the elastic-perfect plastic and the elastic-nonlinear hardening. The analytical results are compared with the results obtained by the finite element method. The results illustrate for using a deterministic approach which the numerical models are suitable. In hertz model, the result of force is very big in interface of causing deformation plastic, while Model Zhao has almost same result with FEM nonlinear property model. It is observed that the results obtained from Zhao’s model are generally in a better agreement with the results obtained from various finite element models especially in elastic-plastic and plastic zones, hence it may be concluded that Zhao’s model can be used for analyzing the rough surfaces in contact mechanics.展开更多

The workpiece is oxygen free high conductivity copper (OFHC copper), its flow stress is considered as a function of strain, strain rate and temperature to reflect its realistic changes in physical properties. In order to take into account the cutting edge radius effects of the single crystal diamond tool, rezoning technology is introduced into this simulation model. Diamond turning process is simulated from the initial stage to the steady stage of chip formation, and the distribution of temperature, equivalent stress, residual stress, strain rate and shear angle are obtained. The simulated principal force is compared with published experiment data and they are found to be in good agreement with each other, but poor for thrust force due to no consideration of elastic recovery for machined surface in the elastic-plastic material model.展开更多

The material of the sphere is modeled as elastic perfectly plastic. Analysis is carried out to study the effect of varying modulus of elasticity and sphere radius in wide range of dimensionless interference until the inception of plasticity as well as in plastic range. Results are compared with previous elastic-plastic models. It is found that materials with Young’s modulus to yield strength (E/Y) ratio less than and greater than 300 show strikingly different contact phenomena. The dependency of E on dimensionless interference at which the plastic region fully covers the surface is observed. However with different radius, finite element study exhibits similar elastic-plastic phenomena.

文摘The effect of trace addition of 0.1wt%Y on the grain refinement and mechanical properties of Al-2.2Li-1.5Cu-0.5Mg-1Zn-0.2Zr-0.2Sc alloys at as-cast and heat-treated states was investigated.Results show that the addition of 0.1wt%Y into the Al-2.2Li-1.5Cu-0.5Mg-1Zn-0.2Zr-0.2Sc alloys can elevate the nucleation temperature of the Al_(3)(Sc,Zr)phase,leading to the preferential precipitation of the Al_(3)(Sc,Zr)phase and increasing the amount of Al_(3)(Sc,Zr)phase in the matrix.Al_(3)(Sc,Zr)phase can also act as a heterogeneous nucleation site in theα-Al matrix to promote nucleation and refine grains.The addition of element Y changes the precipitation phase characteristics at the grain boundaries in the as-cast alloy,which changes the distribution characteristics of secondary phases from initially continuous and coarse strip-like distribution at grain boundaries into the discontinuous dot-like and rod-like distribution.Besides,the size of secondary phases becomes smaller and their amount increases.Under the combined effects of grain refinement strengthening and precipitation strengthening,the Al-2.2Li-1.5Cu-0.5Mg-1Zn-0.2Zr-0.2Sc-0.1Y alloy after 175℃/10 h aging treatment achieves an ultimate tensile strength of 412 MPa and an elongation of 6.3%.Compared with those of the alloy without Y addition,the ultimate tensile strength and elongation of the added alloy increase by 16.1%and 53.7%,respectively.
文摘In modern ZnO varistors,traditional aging mechanisms based on increased power consumption are no longer relevant due to reduced power consumption during DC aging.Prolonged exposure to both AC and DC voltages results in increased leakage current,decreased breakdown voltage,and lower nonlinearity,ultimately compromising their protective performance.To investigate the evolution in electrical properties during DC aging,this work developed a finite element model based on Voronoi networks and conducted accelerated aging tests on commercial varistors.Throughout the aging process,current-voltage characteristics and Schottky barrier parameters were measured and analyzed.The results indicate that when subjected to constant voltage,current flows through regions with larger grain sizes,forming discharge channels.As aging progresses,the current focus increases on these channels,leading to a decline in the varistor’s overall performance.Furthermore,analysis of the Schottky barrier parameters shows that the changes in electrical performance during aging are non-monotonic.These findings offer theoretical support for understanding the aging mechanisms and condition assessment of modern stable ZnO varistors.

文摘In this review,the synthesis,functions,and applications of the polymers containing germanium and tin,which are heavy group 14 elements,in their polymer frameworks are summarized.Germanium and tin can form similar skeletal structures with their homologues carbon and silicon,whereas the polymers containing germanium and tin show unique properties derived from their large atomic radii and weak binding energies.For example,polygermane and polystannane exhibited light absorption in the UV–visible region and conductivity because of theσ-conjugation through the polymer main-chain constructed byσ-bonds between heavy elements.Theσ-conjugation was affected by the conformational change of the polymer main-chain,and thermochromic properties can be induced.Furthermore,the weak bonds were able to be cleaved homolytically upon photoirradiation,and radicals were subsequently generated.By incorporating hypervalent heavy elements into theπ-conjugated system,it was possible to modulate the electronic structures of theπ-conjugated system throughσ*–π*conjugation with highly coordinated elements.Finally,applications for organic solar cells,organic lightemitting materials,and chemical sensors have been achieved.Herein,representative synthetic methods and unique properties for creating smart materials with germanium and tin will be explained.

文摘The Martian core mainly contains iron,nickel and some light elements.However,controversies remain about the structure and chemical composition of the Martian core due to a lack of samples and marsquake data.Recently,the InSight lander collected long-term marsquake data,which improved the Martian interior structure model.B ased on the preliminary analysis of marsquake data,Mars has a molten liquid core with a radius of around 1700 km.As the Martian core has a smaller density and lower temperature than pure iron at corresponding pressure and temperature conditions,some light elements are introduced to reduce the density and liquidus temperature.With various methods for seismic analysis,in-situ high-pressure and high-temperature experiments,and first-principal calculations,the Martian core composition and evolution models have been updated in the past few years.Here,we review those studies on the light elements in the Martian core from four aspects including(1)high-temperature and high-pressure experiments,(2)marsquake data,(3)mineral physics model with molecular dynamics simulations and(4)cosmochemistry investigation.We discussed the effect of different light elements on the Martian core s density,sound velocity and liquidus temperature.Moreover,the review examines the varieties,abundances and forms of light elements in the Martian core.

文摘The development of catalytic multicomponent reactions for constructing complex organic scaffolds from readily accessible commodity chemicals is a key pursuit in contemporary synthetic chemistry.Current methods for synthesizing thioesters primarily rely on the acylation of thiols,which produces substantial waste and requires malodorous,unstable sulfur sources.In this work,we introduce a photocatalyzed hydrogen transfer strategy that enables a three-component synthesis of thioesters using abundant primary alcohols,easily available alkenes and elemental sulfur under mild conditions.This protocol demonstrates broad applicability and high chemo-and regioselectivity for both primary alcohols and alkenes,highlighting the advantage and potential of photo-mediated hydrogen transfer in facilitating multicomponent reactions using primary alcohol and elemental sulfur feedstocks.

文摘The influence of varying levels of impurity elements on the hot corrosion resistance of the DD98M alloy in Na_(2)SO_(4)+NaCl salt at 950℃ was investigated.The results indicate that the corrosion resistance of the DD98M alloy significantly decreases with an increase in impurity content,and the presence of nitrogen leads to an increase in alloy porosity.These porosities promote the rapid diffusion of molten salt and oxygen into the alloy,resulting in a bilateral diffusion of oxygen and sulfur,which leads to an accumulation of these elements at the oxide−matrix interface.This process contributes to the formation and propagation of interfacial cracks.A growth model was developed for hot corrosion products in alloys with varying impurity elements.

文摘The buoyancy-induced flow constitutes a core scientific issue for thermal management of electronic devices and thermal design of energy systems,where accurate characterization of flow and heat transfer is essential to improve thermal efficiency.In this work,buoyancy-induced flow above two heating elements flush-mounted at the bottom of a square enclosure containing air is numerically investigated over a range of Rayleigh numbers(0<Ra≤1.5×10^(8)),with a focus on equal and unequal heat flux conditions under a constraint of constant total thermal energy input.Distinct flow transitions are observed in both cases,leading to the identification of three flow regimes:Steady,periodic unsteady,and chaotic unsteady.Two types of periodic flows are distinguished,in which the first is a periodic flow dominated by a fundamental frequency(FF)and its integer-multiple frequencies(INTMF),while the second is a more complex periodic flow featuring FF,INTMF,and their sub-harmonics.The transitions between these regimes are affected by the relative heat flux of the two heaters.When the heat flux of the two heaters is unequal,the range of Rayleigh numbers corresponding to periodic flow is suppressed.It is also found that the time-averaged maximum temperature of the strong heater increases more rapidly with Ra,while that of the weak heater increases more slowly,reflecting the interaction between buoyancy-driven flow dynamics and asymmetric heat input.Analysis of the time-averaged Nusselt number demonstrates that heat dissipation from the isothermal walls remains roughly equivalent,even when the heat flux of the two heaters differs by a factor of two.These findings highlight the critical roles of Rayleigh number,the number of heaters,and the heat flux ratio of the heaters in determining heat transfer and flow characteristics for buoyancy-driven convection systems,providing important theoretical support and design references for engineering scenarios such as electronic devices and design of new energy systems.

文摘A new quadrilateral edge element method is proposed and analyzed for Maxwell equations.This proposed method is based on Duan-Liang quadrilateral element(Math.Comp.73(2004),pp.1–18).When applied to the eigenvalue problem,the method is spectral-correct and spurious-free.Stability and error estimates are obtained,including the interpolation error estimates and the error estimates between the finite element solution and the exact solution.The method is suitable for singular solution as well as smooth solution,and consequently,the method is valid for nonconvex domains which may have a number of reentrant corners.Of course,the method is suitable for arbitrary quadrilaterals(under the usual shape-regular condition).

文摘Effects of alloying elements Ni,Co,Mn,Cr,and H on the stacking fault energy(SFE)ofγ-Fe and its microscopic mechanisms were systematically investigated.Generalized SFE calculations show that individual alloying elements Ni,Co,and H increase SFE ofγ-Fe,whereas Mn and Cr decrease SFE.The influence of alloying elements on SFE exhibits short-range characteristics.The effect of synergistic interaction of alloying elements and H on SFE was further investigated.Results show that the co-alloying of Ni/Co with H exacerbates the effect of H on the increase in SFE.In contrast,the synergistic effect of Mn/Cr with H tends to inhibit H from the increasing SFE.Finally,the electronic structure analysis elucidated the microscopic mechanism of the change in SFE.Alloying elements modulate SFE by changing the interatomic charge density at the stacking fault plane and the density of states of the stacking fault structure at the Fermi level.The present results add to the knowledge of alloying related influence on the mechanical property and hydrogen embrittlement ofγ-Fe.
