文摘A fine-grained metastable dual-phase Fe_(40)Mn_(20)Co_(20)Cr_(15)Si_(5)high entropy alloy(CS-HEA)with excellent strength and ductility was successfully prepared by friction stir processing(FSP).The microstructural and mechanical properties of the fine-grained CS-HEA were characterized.The results showed that as-cast shrinkage cavities and elemental segregation were eliminated.The average grain size was refined from 121.1 to 5.4μm.The face-centered cubic phase fraction increased from 23%to 82%.During tensile deformation,dislocation slip dominated at strains ranging from 5%to 17%,followed by transformation induced plasticity(TRIP)from 17%to 26%,and twin induced plasticity(TWIP)from 26%to 37%.The yield strength,ultimate tensile strength,and elongation of the fine-grained CS-HEA were 503 MPa,1120 MPa,and 37%,respectively.The strength-ductility synergy of fine-grained CS-HEA was attributed to the combined effects of TRIP,TWIP,dislocation strengthening,and fine-grained strengthening.

文摘Twinning-induced plasticity(TWIP)steel was processed using electrically assisted friction stir welding(EFSW).The microstructure,mechanical properties,and deformation behavior of the welded joints were systematically investigated.The results show that the average grain size was refined from 3.67μm in the base material(BM)to 1.39μm in the stir zone(SZ),while it increased to 4.19μm in the heat-affected zone(HAZ).The fraction of twin boundaries(TBs)decreased from 20.7%in the BM to 6.9%in the SZ and increased to24.5%in the HAZ.The ultimate tensile strength,yield strength,and elongation of the BM were 1021 MPa,505 MPa,and 65.8%,respectively.In comparison,the EFSW joint exhibited values of 1055 MPa,561 MPa,and 60.8%,corresponding to 103.3%,111.1%,and 92.4%of those of the BM,respectively.During tensile testing,plastic deformation was primarily concentrated in the BM,although both the SZ and HAZ also exhibited notable plastic deformation.Fracture ultimately occurred in the BM.

文摘5xxx Al alloys are widely used in additive manufacturing(AM)components across various industries due to their advantageous properties,including low density,high strength,and excellent corrosion resistance.However,conventional melt-based AM methods often introduce defects such as pores,cracks and elemental evaporation.In the present study,a novel screw extrusion-plasticizing friction stir deposition(SEFSD)process,which enables the extrusion plasticization of 5183 particulate feedstocks via a three-stage tapered screw tool,was utilized to fabricate a 20-layer 5183 deposition wall through continuous linear reciprocating deposition in the solid state.The deposition wall exhibited a refined equiaxed microstructure.Due to the low stacking fault energy(SFE)of Al-Mg alloy,the influence of thermal cycles on microstructural evolution was minimal.Overall,the deposition wall demonstrated excellent mechanical properties,though strength and ductility in the deposition direction were reduced due to interlayer defects,which could be mitigated by incorporating stir pins or enhancing interlayer adhesive friction to intensify the material flow.This study confirms the applicability and significant potential of SEFSD for additive manufacturing 5xxx Al alloy components.

文摘The dissimilar 2B06 and 7B04 Al alloy joints were prepared by refill friction stir spot welding(RFSSW),and the microstructural evolution and corrosion behavior of the joints were investigated.Based on microstructural analysis,the welded joints exhibit distinct microstructural zones,including the stir zone(SZ),thermomechanically affected zone(TMAZ),and heat-affected zone(HAZ).The grain size of each zone is in the order of HAZ>TMAZ>SZ.Notably,the TMAZ and HAZ contain significantly larger secondary-phase particles compared to the SZ,with particle size in the HAZ increasing at higher rotational speeds.Electrochemical tests indicate that corrosion susceptibility follows the sequence of HAZ>TMAZ>SZ>BM,with greater sensitivity observed at increased rotational speeds.Post-corrosion mechanical performance degradation primarily arises from crevice corrosion at joint overlaps,but not from the changes in the microstructure.

文摘Centering on the critical bottlenecks in the development of shale oil in the Jiyang Depression of Shengli Oilfield,key scientific and engineering issues are proposed in aspects such as the storage space and occurrence state of shale oil,the formation mechanisms of multi-scale flow spaces,the mobilization mechanisms of crude oil in pores and fractures,and the enhanced oil recovery(EOR)mechanisms during the late stage of elastic development.The research progress and mechanistic insights in recent years are reviewed with respect to experimental techniques,characteristics of pore-fracture structure and fluid occurrence,fracture evolution mechanisms,shale oil flow mechanisms and EOR techniques.Through improving the experimental methods,optimizing the testing conditions,and developing new technologies,we deeply understand the occurrence state,storage space and flow pattern of shale oil,and reveal the distribution pattern of“oil-bearing in all pore sizes and oil-rich in large pores”and the differences in fluid phase states under the confinement effect of nano-scale pores in the shales of the Jiyang Depression;depict the characteristics of“restricted vertical expansion and complex fracture networks”of induced fractures and the dynamic evolution of fracture networks during the fracturing-soaking-production process;establish a“easy flow-slow flow-stagnant flow”three-zone model and the elastic drive+imbibition drive synergistic energy replenishment mechanism;and carry out high-pressure injection to further enhance the mass transfer and diffusion capacity of CO_(2)within the shale pore-fracture system,and compete for the desorption of alkanes to improve the mobilization degree of shale oil.The research achievements provide crucial support for the formation of the theory of continental shale oil development and the construction of the technical system.The future research efforts will focus on mine-scale multi-field coupling physical simulation equipment,microscopic to macroscopic multi-scale experimental methods,pore/fracture fine characterization and post-fracturing core fracture description technologies,multi-media fluid-structure coupling numerical simulation algorithms,and low-cost EOR and low-quality shale oil in-situ upgrading technologies,in order to promote the large-scale and profitable development of shale oil in the Jiyang Depression.
文摘Self-Centering Piston-Based Braced Frames(SC-PBBFs)are designed to curtail structural damage under severe ground motions.The self-centering mechanism in this bracing mitigates structural damage during an earthquake,thereby reducing post-earthquake repair costs and contributing to seismic resilience.However,non-structural components,particularly those sensitive to floor acceleration,remain vulnerable,resulting in prolonged func-tional recovery times.This paper aims to address this limitation by introducing a novel structural archetype,the Self-Centering Viscous-Based Braced Frame(SC-VBBF),which integrates superelastic shape memory alloy(SMA)bars,viscous dampers(VDs),and friction springs(FSs).A streamlined analytical approach relies on the strength decoupling of VD from other components using aλfactor to design SC-VBBFs.To evaluate the effectiveness of the hybrid brace,a set of 4-,8-,and 12-story archetypes equipped with SC-PBBs and SC-VBBFs are simulated in OpenSees and analyzed under various earthquake types,including crustal,subcrustal,and subduction events.The results demonstrate the superior performance of the SC-VBBF withλ≤0.5 system compared to SC-PBBFs in mitigating floor accelerations under design-level earthquakes and improving seismic resilience.

文摘Friction stir processing(FSP) has emerged as a transformative solid-state technique for enhancing the mechanical performance and microstructural integrity of metallic materials,particularly in the context of additive manufacturing(AM).This study demonstrates the effectiveness of FSP as a post-processing strategy for two distinct AM systems:wire arc additive manufacturing(WAAM) of low-carbon steel and selective laser melting(SLM) of Ti6Al4V alloy.In the case of WAAM fabricated steel,FSP significantly refined the coarse dendritic microstructure into ultrafine equiaxed grains,resulting in a 21 %-24 % increase in hardness and enhanced tensile properties at the overlapping regions.Similarly,for SLM fabricated Ti6Al4V,FSP eliminated the columnar prior-β grains and residual porosity,yielding a homogenous α+β structure with improved strengthductility balance and reduced anisotropy.These improvements were attributed to the dynamic recrystallization,conversion of low-angle to high-angle grain boundaries,and homogenization of phase constituents induced by FSP.Despite challenges such as tool wear and fixturing complexity,the study confirms that FSP can reliably bridge the performance gap in AM components by healing solidification defects,mitigating anisotropy,and tailoring the local microstructure.The findings position FSP as a versatile and scalable post-processing technique,crucial for advancing high-performance,application-ready components in aerospace,biomedical,and structural applications.

文摘At present,the emerging solid-phase friction-based additive manufacturing technology,including friction rolling additive man-ufacturing(FRAM),can only manufacture simple single-pass components.In this study,multi-layer multi-pass FRAM-deposited alumin-um alloy samples were successfully prepared using a non-shoulder tool head.The material flow behavior and microstructure of the over-lapped zone between adjacent layers and passes during multi-layer multi-pass FRAM deposition were studied using the hybrid 6061 and 5052 aluminum alloys.The results showed that a mechanical interlocking structure was formed between the adjacent layers and the adja-cent passes in the overlapped center area.Repeated friction and rolling of the tool head led to different degrees of lateral flow and plastic deformation of the materials in the overlapped zone,which made the recrystallization degree in the left and right edge zones of the over-lapped zone the highest,followed by the overlapped center zone and the non-overlapped zone.The tensile strength of the overlapped zone exceeded 90%of that of the single-pass deposition sample.It is proved that although there are uneven grooves on the surface of the over-lapping area during multi-layer and multi-pass deposition,they can be filled by the flow of materials during the deposition of the next lay-er,thus ensuring the dense microstructure and excellent mechanical properties of the overlapping area.The multi-layer multi-pass FRAM deposition overcomes the limitation of deposition width and lays the foundation for the future deposition of large-scale high-performance components.
