The results show that the migration and segregation of sulfur to the interface between oxide scale and the substrate at high temperature is retarded owing to the presence of yttrium. This is attributed to the desulfurization by yttrium in the melt and the trapping of sulfur by yttrium rich phases during oxidation, which leads to improving the coherence between oxide scale and substrate. Another reason of increasing the high temperature oxidation resistance of alloy IC6 by the addition of yttrium is that yttrium migrates to the grain boundaries of oxides during oxidation and hence improve their strength. This results in the transformation of the oxide scale spallation cracks from intergranular cracks for alloy without yttrium to transgranular ones for yttrium modified alloy.展开更多

The results indicate that ILs can obviously improve the interfacial width, solubility and diffusion of reactants compared to H_(2)SO_(4). The longer alkyl chains of cations present a density enrichment at the interface and protrude into the binary reactants phase. Furthermore, the ILs consisting of 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium cations([Omim]^(+)) and the stronger acidity heptachlorodialuminate anions([Al_(2)Cl_(7)]^(-)) are more beneficial to promote the interfacial width and facilitate the dissolution and diffusion of benzene in both the IL bulk and the interfacial region in comparison to the ones with shorter alkyl chains cations and weaker acidity anions. The information gives us a better guideline for the design of ILs for benzene alkylation.展开更多

The interaction between asphalt binder and mineral aggregate is the main cause of forming the interface. This paper presents an extensive review on the test technologies and analysis methods of interfacial interaction, including molecular dynamics simulation, phase field approach, absorption tests, rheological methods and macro mechanical tests. All of the studies conducted on this topic clearly indicated that the interfacial interaction between asphalt binder and mineral aggregate is a physical-chemical process, and can be qualitatively characterized by microscopical technique （such as SEM and AFM）, and also can be quantitatively evaluated by rheological methods and interfacial mechanical tests. Molecular dynamics simulation and phase field approach were also demonstrated to be effective methods to study the interfacial behavior and its mechanism.展开更多

The average interfacial shear strength of the bimetal composite is measured to be 13 MPa.This study provides a new fabrication process for the application of Mg/Cu bimetal composites as the hydrogen storage materials.展开更多

文摘The interfacial behavior of sulfur and yttrium in the yttrium modified Ni 3Al based alloy IC6 during oxidation at 1100 ℃ was analyzed by X ray line scan of electron probe microstructural analysis(EPMA). The results show that the migration and segregation of sulfur to the interface between oxide scale and the substrate at high temperature is retarded owing to the presence of yttrium. This is attributed to the desulfurization by yttrium in the melt and the trapping of sulfur by yttrium rich phases during oxidation, which leads to improving the coherence between oxide scale and substrate. Another reason of increasing the high temperature oxidation resistance of alloy IC6 by the addition of yttrium is that yttrium migrates to the grain boundaries of oxides during oxidation and hence improve their strength.

文摘To improve the thermoelectric converting performance in applications such as power generation,reutilization of heat energy,refrigeration,and ultrasensitive sensors in scramjet engines,a thermoelectric film/substrate system is widely designed and applied,whose interfacial behavior dominates the strength and service life of thermoelectric devices.Herein,a theoretical model of a thermoelectric film bonded to a graded substrate is proposed.The interfacial shear stress,the normal stress in the thermoelectric film,and the stress intensity factors affected by various material and geometric parameters are comprehensively studied.It is found that adjusting the inhomogeneity parameter of the graded substrate,thermal conductivity,and current density of the thermoelectric film can reduce the risk of interfacial failure of the thermoelectric film/graded substrate system.Selecting a stiffer and thicker thermoelectric film is advantageous to the reliability of the thermoelectric film/graded substrate system.The results should be of great guiding significance for the present and upcoming applications of thermoelectric materials in various fields.

文摘To better understand the benzene alkylation with chloroaluminate ionic liquids(ILs) as catalyst, the interfacial properties between the benzene/butene binary reactants and chloroaluminate ILs with varying cation alkyl chain length and different anions were investigated using molecular dynamics(MD) simulations. The results indicate that ILs can obviously improve the interfacial width, solubility and diffusion of reactants compared to H_(2)SO_(4). The longer alkyl chains of cations present a density enrichment at the interface and protrude into the binary reactants phase. Furthermore, the ILs consisting of 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium cations([Omim]^(+)) and the stronger acidity heptachlorodialuminate anions([Al_(2)Cl_(7)]^(-)) are more beneficial to promote the interfacial width and facilitate the dissolution and diffusion of benzene in both the IL bulk and the interfacial region in comparison to the ones with shorter alkyl chains cations and weaker acidity anions. The information gives us a better guideline for the design of ILs for benzene alkylation.

文摘In this paper,we investigate the interfacial behavior of a thin one-dimensional(1D)hexagonal quasicrystal(QC)film bonded on an elastic substrate subjected to a mismatch strain due to thermal variation.The contact interface is assumed to be nonslipping,with both perfectly bonded and debonded boundary conditions.The Fourier transform technique is adopted to establish the integral equations in terms of interfacial shear stress,which are solved as a linear algebraic system by approximating the unknown phonon interfacial shear stress via the series expansion of the Chebyshev polynomials.The expressions are explicitly obtained for the phonon interfacial shear stress,internal normal stress,and stress intensity factors(SIFs).Finally,based on numerical calculations,we briefly discuss the effects of the material mismatch,the geometry of the QC film,and the debonded length and location on stresses and SIFs.

文摘In this study,a new linear friction welding(LFW)process,embedded LFW process,was put forward,which was mainly applied to combination manufacturing of long or overlong loadcarrying titanium alloy structural components in aircraft.The interfacial plastic flow behavior and bonding mechanism of this process were investigated by a developed coupling EulerianLagrangian numerical model using software ABAQUS and a novel thermo-physical simulation method with designed embedded hot compression specimen.In addition,the formation mechanism and control method of welding defects caused by uneven plastic flow were discussed.The results reveal that the plastic flow along oscillating direction of this process is even and sufficient.In the direction perpendicular to oscillation,thermo-plastic metals mainly flow downward along welding interface under coupling of shear stress and interfacial pressure,resulting in the interfacial plastic zone shown as an inverted“V”shape.The upward plastic flow in this direction is relatively weak,and only a small amount of flash is extruded from top of joint.Moreover,the wedge block and welding components at top of joint are always in un-steady friction stage,leading to nonuniform temperature field distribution and un-welded defects.According to the results of numerical simulation,high oscillating frequency combined with low pressure and small amplitude is considered as appropriate parameter selection scheme to improve the upward interfacial plastic flow at top of joint and suppress the un-welded defects.The results of thermo-physical simulation illustrate that continuous dynamic recrystallization(CDRX)induces the bonding of interface,accompanying by intense dislocation movement and creation of many low-angle grain boundaries.In the interfacial bonding area,grain orientation is random with relatively low texture density(5.0 mud)owing to CDRX.

文摘Typical Q235 low-carbon steel samples with different hydrogen contents(0.0004,0.0008,and 0.0013 wt.%)were prepared by adjusting the environment humidity and moisture.The effects of hydrogen on interfacial heat transfer,contact behavior,and microstructure evolution were investigated using a novel droplet solidification technique.The results revealed that when the hydrogen content increases from 0.0004 to 0.0013 wt.%,the maximum heat flux between the molten steel and cooling substrate decreases from 8.01 to 6.19 MW/m^(2),and the total heat removed in the initial 2 s reduces from 10.30 to 8.27 MJ/m^(2).Moreover,the final contact angle between the molten steel and substrate increases from 103.741°to 113.697°,and the number of pores on the droplet bottom surface increases significantly from 21 to 210 with the increase in hydrogen.The surface roughness of the droplet bottom surface increases from 20.902 to 49.181 pm.In addition,the average grain size of the droplet increases from 14.778 to 33.548 pm with the increase in the hydrogen content.The interfacial contact condition becomes worse due to the escape of hydrogen from the steel matrix during the cooling process,which leads to the reduction in the interfacial heat transfer and the increase in the grain size.

文摘The strain transfer behavior of graphene and black phosphorus heterostructure on fexible substrates plays a crucial role in the functionality and regulation of the device.Specifically,it is imperative to investigate the anisotropy associated with strain transfer at the black phosphorus interface.In this study,a sample transfer method was proposed to prevent the contact of black phosphorus with water,achieving monolayer graphene and few-layer black phosphorus heterostructures on a PET flm substrate.Micro-Raman spectroscopy was used to measure the strain of graphene and black phosphorus when the PET flm substrate was under uniaxial tensile loading along the zigzag and armchair directions of black phosphorus,respectively.The Raman shift-strain relationship of black phosphorus was derived,and an interface transfer model was developed for the heterostructure.Based on the model,the strain transfer efficiency of each measuring spot was calculated and the strain transfer mechanism of each layer was analyzed.The results uncover the influence of the anisotropic interlayer properties inside the black phosphorus on the strain transfer behavior in the heterostructure on the flexible substrate.
文摘The interface between asphalt binder and mineral aggregate directly affects the service life of pavement because the defects and stress concentration occur more easily there. The interaction between asphalt binder and mineral aggregate is the main cause of forming the interface. This paper presents an extensive review on the test technologies and analysis methods of interfacial interaction, including molecular dynamics simulation, phase field approach, absorption tests, rheological methods and macro mechanical tests. All of the studies conducted on this topic clearly indicated that the interfacial interaction between asphalt binder and mineral aggregate is a physical-chemical process, and can be qualitatively characterized by microscopical technique （such as SEM and AFM）, and also can be quantitatively evaluated by rheological methods and interfacial mechanical tests. Molecular dynamics simulation and phase field approach were also demonstrated to be effective methods to study the interfacial behavior and its mechanism.

文摘Foam is one special colloid dispersion system and has been widely used in foods.This work aims to improve the foam properties of sodium caseinate(Cas)through the electrostatic complexation of Cas and type-A gelatin(GE),in which GE is one cheap and widely sourced basic protein.Turbidity and zeta potential measurements indicate that mass ratio(r=GE/Cas)was critical to the solubility of protein complexes at pH 6.0 and that soluble and insoluble complexes were respectively formed at low mass ratios(r=0.25,0.5 and 1)and high mass ratios(r=2 and 4).All soluble and insoluble complexes exhibited better foaming capacity than that of Cas and GE,while only soluble complexes significantly improved the foam stability of Cas.Particularly,the foam half-time of GE/Cas mixture at r=0.25 was 5525.2±405.7 s and 2.1 times that of Cas.Surface dilatational rheology shows that the adsorption behavior of soluble and insoluble complexes was respectively similar to that of Cas and GE.Soluble complexes formed more viscoelastic interface films than Cas,which could explain the better foam stability of soluble complexes.Transmission electron microscopy shows that electrostatic complexation of GE/Cas destroyed the micelle structure of Cas to varying degree but produced new networks.GE/Cas heteroprotein complexes have the potential to be used as excellent foaming agents in food industry.

文摘The application of ultra-high performance concrete(UHPC)as a covering layer for steel bridge decks has gained widespread popularity.By employing a connection without a shear connector between the steel plate and UHPC,namely,the sandblasted interface and the epoxy adhesive with sprinkled basalt aggregate interface,the installation cannot only be simplified but also the stress concentration resulting from the welded shear connectors can be eliminated.This study develops constitutive models for these two interfaces without shear connectors,based on the interfacial pull-off and push-out tests.For validation,three-point bending tests on the steel-UHPC composite plates are conducted.The results indicated that the proposed bilinear traction-separation model for the sandblasted interface and the trapezoidal traction-separation model for the epoxy adhesive with sprinkled basalt aggregate interface can generally calibrate the interfacial behavior.However,the utilization of the experimentally determined pure shear strength underestimates the load-carrying capacity of the composite plates in the case of three-point bending tests.By recalling the Mohr-Coulomb criterion,this underestimation is attributed to the enhancement of the interface shear strength by the presence of normal stress.

文摘Mg/Cu bimetal composites were prepared by compound casting method, and the microstructure evolution, phase constitution and bonding strength at the interface were investigated.It is found that a good metallurgical bonding can be achieved at the interface of Mg and Cu,which consists of two sub-layers,i.e.,layer I with 30μm on the copper side composed of Mg2Cu matrix phase, on which a small amount of dendritic MgCu2 phase was randomly distributed;layerⅡ with 140μm on the magnesium side made up of the lamellar nano-eutectic network Mg2Cu+(Mg) and a small amount of detached Mg2Cu phase. The average interfacial shear strength of the bimetal composite is measured to be 13 MPa.This study provides a new fabrication process for the application of Mg/Cu bimetal composites as the hydrogen storage materials.

文摘Vacuum die casting can reduce the'air entrapment'phenomenon during casting process.Based on the temperature measurements at metal-die interface with different processing parameters,such as slow shot speed(VL),high shot speed(VH),pouring temperature(Tp)and initial die temperature(Tm),inverse method was developed to determine the interfacial heat transfer coefficient(IHTC).The results indicate that a closer contact between the casting and die could be achieved when the vacuum system is used.It is found that the vacuum could strongly increase the values of IHTC and decrease the grain size in castings.The IHTC could have a higher peak value with increasing the Tp from680to720℃or the VL from0.1to0.4m/s.In addition,the influence of the VH and Tm on IHTC could be negligible.
文摘High pressure die casting copper is used to produce rotors for induction motors to improve efficiency.Experiments were carried out for a special"step-shape"casting with different step thicknesses.Based on the measured temperature inside the die,the interfacial heat transfer coefficient(IHTC)at the metal/die interface during vacuum die casting was evaluated by solving the inverse problem.The IHTC peak value was 4.5×10^3-11×10^3 W·m^-2·K^-1 under the basic operation condition.The influences of casting pressure,fast shot speed,pouring temperature and initial die surface temperature on the IHTC peak values were investigated.Results show that a greater casting pressure and faster shot speed could only increase the IHTC peak values at the location close to the ingate.An increase of pouring temperature and/or initial die surface temperature significantly increases the IHTC peak values.

文摘Reliable assessment of uplift capacity of buried pipelines against upheaval buckling requires a valid failure mechanism and a reliable real-time monitoring technique.This paper presents a sensing solution for evaluating uplift capacity of pipelines buried in sand using fiber optic strain sensing(FOSS)nerves.Upward pipe-soil interaction(PSI)was investigated through a series of scaled tests,in which the FOSS and image analysis techniques were used to capture the failure patterns.The published prediction models were evaluated and modified according to observations in the present study as well as a database of 41 pipe loading tests assembled from the literature.Axial strain measurements of FOSS nerves horizontally installed above the pipeline were correlated with the failure behavior of the overlying soil.The test results indicate that the previous analytical models could be further improved regarding their estimations in the failure geometry and mobilization distance at the peak uplift resistance.For typical slip plane failure forms,inclined shear bands star from the pipe shoulder,instead of the springline,and have not yet reached the ground surface at the peak resistance.The vertical inclination of curved shear bands decreases with increasing uplift displacements at the post-peak periods.At large displacements,the upward movement is confined to the deeper ground,and the slip plane failure progressively changes to the flow-around.The feasibility of FOSS in pipe uplift resistance prediction was validated through the comparison with image analyses.In addition,the shear band locations can be identified using fiber optic strain measurements.Finally,the advantages and limits of the FOSS system are discussed in terms of different levels in upward PSI assessment,including failure identification,location,and quantification.
