In the current research the influence of cyclic semi-solid heat treatment on microstructure of Al-18% Si alloy containing 0.8% Fe has been studied. All specimens were heated in an electrically heated resistance furnace with heating rate of 10°C·min-1 to 585°C. For a complete one cycle heat treatment (5 min heating time), samples after 5 min holding at 585°C were cooled to a temperature of 550°C in still air cooling and the samples were taken out immediately for water quenching. It was found that heat treatment cycles should be limited to 3 cycles or less in order to maintain fine grain size and globular structure without agglomeration and coalescence. Cyclic semi-solid heat treatment changes morphology of iron-rich intermetallics phases to be plate-like and fine plate iron-rich intermetallics phases, in stead of needle-like iron-rich intermetallics phases that are observed in as-cast samples. Cyclic heating shows a relatively higher hardness for all heating cycles compared with as-cast one due to its finer and globular structure. Cyclic semi-solid heat treatment technique results in lower coarsening rate constant compared with isothermal heat treatment one due to coarsening discontinuous effect.展开更多

文摘The cyclic semi-solid heat treatment represents a promising technique for improving microstructure and mechanical properties of a wide range of metallic alloys. In the current research the influence of cyclic semi-solid heat treatment on microstructure of Al-18% Si alloy containing 0.8% Fe has been studied. All specimens were heated in an electrically heated resistance furnace with heating rate of 10°C·min-1 to 585°C. For a complete one cycle heat treatment (5 min heating time), samples after 5 min holding at 585°C were cooled to a temperature of 550°C in still air cooling and the samples were taken out immediately for water quenching. It was found that heat treatment cycles should be limited to 3 cycles or less in order to maintain fine grain size and globular structure without agglomeration and coalescence. Cyclic semi-solid heat treatment changes morphology of iron-rich intermetallics phases to be plate-like and fine plate iron-rich intermetallics phases, in stead of needle-like iron-rich intermetallics phases that are observed in as-cast samples. Cyclic heating shows a relatively higher hardness for all heating cycles compared with as-cast one due to its finer and globular structure. Cyclic semi-solid heat treatment technique results in lower coarsening rate constant compared with isothermal heat treatment one due to coarsening discontinuous effect.

文摘It is important to analyze the damage evolution process of surrounding rock under different water content for the stability of engineering rock mass.Based on digital speckle correlation(DSCM),acoustic emission(AE)and electromagnetic radiation(EMR),uniaxial hierarchical cyclic loading and unloading tests were carried out on sandstones with different fracture numbers under dry,natural and saturated water content,to explore the fracture propagation,failure precursor characteristics and damage response mechanism under the influence of water content effect.The results show that with the increase of water content,the peak stress and crack initiation stress decrease gradually,and the decreases are 15.28%-21.11%and 17.64%-23.04%,respectively.The peak strain and crack initiation strain increase gradually,and the increases are 19.85%-44.53%and 19.15%-41.94%,respectively.The precracked rock with different water content is mainly characterized by tensile failure at different loading stages.However,with the increase of water content,the proportion of shear cracks gradually increases,while acoustic emission events gradually decrease,the dissipative energy and energy storage limits of the rock under peak load gradually decrease,and the charge signal increases significantly,which is because the lubrication effect of water reduces the friction coefficient between crack surfaces.

文摘The interaction between the gut microbiota and cyclic adenosine monophosphate(cAMP)-protein kinase A(PKA)signaling pathway in the host's central nervous system plays a crucial role in neurological diseases and enhances communication along the gut–brain axis.The gut microbiota influences the cAMP-PKA signaling pathway through its metabolites,which activates the vagus nerve and modulates the immune and neuroendocrine systems.Conversely,alterations in the cAMP-PKA signaling pathway can affect the composition of the gut microbiota,creating a dynamic network of microbial-host interactions.This reciprocal regulation affects neurodevelopment,neurotransmitter control,and behavioral traits,thus playing a role in the modulation of neurological diseases.The coordinated activity of the gut microbiota and the cAMP-PKA signaling pathway regulates processes such as amyloid-β protein aggregation,mitochondrial dysfunction,abnormal energy metabolism,microglial activation,oxidative stress,and neurotransmitter release,which collectively influence the onset and progression of neurological diseases.This study explores the complex interplay between the gut microbiota and cAMP-PKA signaling pathway,along with its implications for potential therapeutic interventions in neurological diseases.Recent pharmacological research has shown that restoring the balance between gut flora and cAMP-PKA signaling pathway may improve outcomes in neurodegenerative diseases and emotional disorders.This can be achieved through various methods such as dietary modifications,probiotic supplements,Chinese herbal extracts,combinations of Chinese herbs,and innovative dosage forms.These findings suggest that regulating the gut microbiota and cAMP-PKA signaling pathway may provide valuable evidence for developing novel therapeutic approaches for neurodegenerative diseases.
文摘Plant roots are widely known to provide mechanical reinforcement to soils against shearing and further increase slope stability.However,whether roots provide reinforcement to loess cyclic re-sistance and how various factors affect roots reinforcement during seismic loading have rarely been studied.The objective is to conduct a series of cyclic direct simple shear tests and DEM numerical simulation to investigate the cyclic behaviour of rooted loess.The effects of initial static shear stress and loading frequency on the cyclic resistance of root-soil composites were first investigated.After that,cyclic direct simple shear simulations at constant volume were carried out based on the discrete element method(PFC^(3D))to investigate the effects of root geome-try,mechanical traits and root-soil bond strength on the cyclic strength of rooted loess.It was discovered that the roots could effectively improve the cyclic resistance of loess.The cyclic resistance of the root-soil composite decreases with the increase of the initial shear stress,then increases,and improves with the increase of the frequency.The simulation result show that increases in root elastic modulus and root-soil interfacial bond strength can all enhance the cyclic resistance of root-soil composites,and the maximum cyclic resistance of the root-soil composite was obtained when the initial inclination angle of the root system was 90°.
文摘A new gold self-relay catalytic annulation/nucleophilic substitution cascade of 1,3-enyne acetates with cyclic ether acetals is reported,enabling highly diastereoselective access to cyclic etherified cyclopentenones with cyclic quaternary centers in moderate to good yields and>19∶1 dr.This catalysis enables the direct construction of two types of carboncyclic skeletons by adjusting the olefin types of 1,3-enyne acetates.When 1,3-enyne acetates bearing a cyclic alkene unit were used,5~6 fused bicarbocyclic products were diastereoselectively synthesized,whereas the reaction of acyclic 1,3-enyne acetates resulted in five-memebered carbocyclic framework.Notably,cyclic ether acetals are commonly used as protecting groups in traditional multistep organic syntheses,and in this reaction,such reagents serve as electrophilic cyclic ether precursors,achieving new uses for old reagents.The current method demonstrates good functional group compatibility,a broad substrate scope and high diastereoselectivity,providing a new synthetic strategy toward functionalized cyclopentenones.

文摘Cyclic volatile methyl siloxanes(cVMSs)are widely used in industrial and consumer products because of their thermal stability,low reactivity,and reduced surface tension[1].Their extensive use has resulted in environmental pollution globally.Recognized as very persistent and very bioaccumulative(vPvB),compounds such as octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane(D4),decamethylcyclopentasiloxane(D5),and dodecamethylcyclohexasiloxane(D6)are regulated in the European Union[2]and are monitored worldwide.

文摘This study is devoted to a novel fractional friction-damage model for quasi-brittle rock materials subjected to cyclic loadings in the framework of micromechanics.The total damage of material describing the microstructural degradation is decomposed into two parts:an instantaneous part arising from monotonic loading and a fatigue-related one induced by cyclic loading,relating to the initiation and propagation of microcracks.The inelastic deformation arises directly from frictional sliding along microcracks,inherently coupled with the damage effect.A fractional plastic flow rule is introduced using stress-fractional plasticity operations and covariant transformation approach,instead of classical plastic flow function.Additionally,the progression of fatigue damage is intricately tied to subcracks and can be calculated through application of a convolution law.The number of loading cycles serves as an integration variable,establishing a connection between inelastic deformation and the evolution of fatigue damage.In order to verify the accuracy of the proposed model,comparison between analytical solutions and experimental data are carried out on three different rocks subjected to conventional triaxial compression and cyclic loading tests.The evolution of damage variables is also investigated along with the cumulative deformation and fatigue lifetime.The improvement of the fractional model is finally discussed by comparing with an existing associated fatigue model in literature.
