文摘Due to the high hardness and low fracture toughness of the single crystal silicon(SCS),it is highly susceptible to microscopic cracks and subsurface damage during processing.In this paper,we propose to adjust the mechanical properties of SCS by cold plasma jet,and systematically investigate the influences of the plasma on material deformation and damage mechanisms by nanoscratch tests.The results indicate that the plasma can increase the critical normal force for the plastic-brittle(P-B)conversion of SCS.Compared with the ordinary nanoscratch test,the critical force for P-B conversion of plasma-assisted scratching at 1μm/s can increase from 43.6 to 66.4 mN.Increasing the scratching speed under ordinary conditions can enhance the plastic deformability of SCS to some extent,but its effect is not as effective as that of plasma;in addition,the increased scratching speed causes the shear bands(SBs)to lack time to propagate,so the quantity of SBs under plasma-assisted scratching at 10μm/s is reduced compared to 1μm/s.From subsurface damage topographies,the highly localized amorphous SBs cause the generation of subsurface cracks.The cold plasma can alleviate cracks on the scratched subsurface of SCS by introducing multiple SBs and stacking faults.This paper may provide a novel strategy for high-efficiency and low-damage ultra-precision machining of hard and brittle materials.

文摘The service life of refractory brick in the slag tapping hole of gasifiers is a significant concern for long-term and stable operation.This study examined the damage mechanism of high chromia refractory of four commercial coal-water slurry gasifiers with their corresponding gasification coal samples and the corroded refractory bricks in the slag tapping hole of the gasifier.The slag characteristic,including crystallization and viscosity-temperature of four gasification coal samples were analyzed.The results revealed that the low viscosity slag could lead to more severe damage to refractory bricks.Given the risk of slag crystallization,it is recommended to establish a safe slag tapping temperature range should be set as tICT(initial crystallization temperature)−t_(2.5) when tICT is higher than t_(25).Upon examining interior morphology of these corroded refractory bricks,some cracks were observed within them.The chemical composition of molten slag was analyzed using SEM-EDS.However,XRD results found no spinel containing zirconium in these cracks.This suggests that the emergence of these cracks are mainly attributed to the molten slag penetration and the subsequent reaction with the refractory material.The difference in thermal expansion between the newly formed substances and refractory material is critical in forming these cracks.Furthermore,SEM-EDS analysis was also conducted on the slag-aggregate and the slag-matrix interface.The results reveal that the reduction in Cr_(2)O_(3) content is the earliest characteristic of damage in high chromia refractories.A proposed damage mechanism of refractory brick suggests that the matrix and aggregate of high chromia refractory are initially compromised because of the reduced Cr_(2)O_(3) content.Subsequently,the molten slag penetrates the interior of the refractory brick,forming new substances,leading to damage caused by the difference in thermal expansion between the new substances and the refractory brick.Understanding and preventing the reduction of Cr_(2)O_(3) content is vital to prolonging the service life of refractory brick in the slag tapping hole of the gasifier based on this damage mechanism.

文摘Functionally graded composite/hybrid materials(FGCM/FGHCM)were produced by adding B_(4)C,TiO_(2),and B_(4)C+TiO_(2)ceramic materials at various ratios(0-50%)into the AA6082 matrix.The analysis of the damage caused by^(60) ions'(1.173-1.1332 MeV)on the material was examined using the SRIM/TRIM Monte Carlo simulation software.In the simulation,the following data regarding the atoms of the target materials were obtained:ion distribution,target ionization,total displacements,surface binding energy,lattice binding energy,and displacement energy.Among the studied four materials,the one with the highest ion range value was found to be AA6082 with 8550A.TiO_(2)was found to be the reinforcement material that reduced the ion range the most in the material.Due to its high binding energy,B_(4)C reinforced AA6082+(0-50%)B_(4)C FGCM was found to have the least vacancy with 4782/ion.

文摘Particle shape and local breakage significantly affect the deformation characteristics of crushable granular materials.However,in the existing constitutive model research,there is less introduction of particle shape on particle breakage.A quantitative parameter for the three-dimensional particle shape(Average spherical modulus G_(M))is proposed in this study.Combined with G_(M),the triaxial compression test of granular materials with different particle shapes was carried out,and the particle size distribution before and after the test was determined.The results indicate that the local damage mechanism governs the macroscopic deformation behavior of granular materials,as influenced by the particle gradation of the samples before and after the triaxial compression test.Based on these findings,a binary medium model with a friction element weakening factor is proposed.This model incorporates the effects of particle shape and breakage behavior,significantly enhancing its calculation accuracy.Experimental results demonstrate that the model effectively predicts the deformation of crushable granular materials,accounting for particle shape.

文摘Ultrasonic-Assisted Grinding(UAG)is a novel manufacturing technology that shows promising promise for use in processing Ceramic Matrix Composites(CMCs).Nevertheless,analyzing the material removal process of CMCs with multidirectional structure during UAG is challenging,impeding the progress and improvement of the UAG process.This work examined the impact of ultrasonic vibration on the dynamic mechanical characteristics during processing.Additionally,we experimentally elucidated the material removal mechanism of CMCs during the scratching process under the influence of vertical vibration.The results indicate that the introduction of ultrasonic vibration causes a strain rate effect,resulting in a modification of the material removal mechanism,subsequently impacting the processing quality.Ultrasonic vibration increases the dynamic strength and brittleness of the fibers in CMCs,leading to more cracks at fracture,which changes from the original bending fracture to shear fracture.In addition,ultrasonic vibration can effectively inhibit the impact of scratching depth and anisotropy on the removal mechanism of CMCs,resulting in a more uniform surface of CMCs after processing.

文摘In deep coal mining,surrounding rock is subjected to both high in-situ stress and intense mining disturbances,leading to significant time-dependent behavior.Accurately capturing this behavior is essential for predicting long-term roadway stability,necessitating the development of a reliable constitutive creep model and numerical simulation approach.In this study,creep experiments were conducted on pre-damaged rock with varying initial damage levels to investigate the time-dependent mechanical properties.Based on the experimental results,an accelerated-creep criterion was proposed,and an elastic-viscoplastic creep damage model(EVPCD)was established that simultaneously considers the effects of time-dependent damage and instantaneous damage caused by stress disturbances on rock creep behavior.Subsequently,the effectiveness of the proposed creep model was verified using experimental data,and the secondary development of the EVPCD model was completed based on the FLAC3D platform.Following this,a long-term stability analysis method of deep surrounding rock that accounts for excavation-and mining-induced disturbances was proposed.Using the main roadway of Xutuan Coal Mine as a case study,numerical simulations were carried out to investigate the time-dependent deformation and failure characteristics of the surrounding rock following excavation and mining disturbance.Combined with on-site monitoring of the surrounding rock damage areas,the results indicate that the EVPCD outperforms the CVISC and Nishihara models in predicting the time-dependent behavior of deep surrounding rock.
文摘Standardization is necessary for the early industrialization of the new materials and technology.It is achieved by having agreed practices for the measurement of properties and other characteristics.The promising use of graphene-based materials in fields like electronics,energy,and composites has resulted in standards for their nomenclature,the measurement of key characteristics,and their specification,etc.Among these,standards for measuring the key characteristics are crucial.The critical parameters are the number of layers,the type and concentration of defects and functional groups,elemental composition,sheet resistance,and carrier mobility.Standards for characterizing these have been analyzed by the International Organization for Standardization Technical Committee in ISO/TC229 and the International Electrotechnical Commission Technical Committee in IEC/TC113.These give details of applicable or preferred samples,the fundamental principles of the techniques,specific precautions,and points for attention in the relevant standards.The pivotal role of the ISO/TC229 and IEC/TC113 standards is considered and challenges and future trends are outlined.

文摘To reveal the influence of coupled effects of dry-wet cycling and precompression stress(CEDWCPS)on the damage evolution of limestone with horizontal fissure(LHF),a series of degradation and uniaxial compression tests were conducted,and a corresponding piecewise damage constitutive model(PDCM)was established.We found that both dry-wet cycling and precompression stress deteriorate the physical properties,alter the microscopic characteristics,and reduce the mechanical properties of the LHF.These degradations are particularly pronounced under the CEDWCPS,although the magnitude of these changes gradually diminishes with the progression of dry-wet cycling.Meanwhile,they also reduce the deformation degree,prolong the micropore compaction stage,shorten the unstable crack propagation stage,lower the frequency and intensity of AE events,decrease the high-amplitude and high-frequency AE signals,enlarge crack scales,and shorten the crack initiation time.Among the changes of these indicators,the dry-wet cycling plays a dominant role.The crack types of LHF under the CEDWCPS(LHFCEDWCPS)are predominantly tensile cracks,supplemented by shear cracks.The failure mode can be defined as tensileshear composite failure.Finally,the established PDCM effectively captures the nonlinear deformation of micropore and the linear deformation of the matrix in LHFCEDWCPS,with all corresponding R^(2) consistently exceeding 0.97.

文摘CO_(2) capture and utilization(CCU)technologies have been recognized as crucial strategies for mitigating global warming,reducing carbon emission,and promoting resource circularity.As such,the design and development of related materials have attracted considerable research attention.Carbon-based materials,characterized by tunable pore structures,abundant active sites,high specific surface area,and excellent chemical stability,demonstrate significant potential for applications in CO_(2) capture and utilization.This review systematically analyzes the adsorption behaviors and performance variations of typical carbon materials,including activated carbon,porous carbon,graphene,and carbon nanotubes during CO_(2) capture processes.Concerning CO_(2) utilization,emphasis is placed on recent advances in the catalytic applications of carbon-based materials in key reactions such as methanation,reverse water-gas shift,dry reforming of methane,and alcohol synthesis.Moreover,the benefits and drawbacks of carbon materials in terms of CO_(2) adsorption capacity,catalytic activity,and stability are thoroughly evaluated,and their potential applications in integrated CO_(2) capture and utilization technologies are discussed.Finally,key strategies for enhancing the performance of carbonaceous materials through structural modulation and surface modification are elucidated.This review aims to provide theoretical guidance for the future development and large-scale implementation of carbon-based materials in CCU technologies.

文摘To investigate the long-term stability of soft-hard interbedded rock masses with initial damage induced by earthquakes and periodic drying and wetting,this study prepared samples with different initial damage through cyclic loading and unloading(CLU)experiments followed by cyclic drying and wetting(CDW)experiments,and finally conducted creep experiments.The study analyzed the effects of initial damage on creep mechanical behavior,crack evolution,and explored failure precursor information,revealing the damage failure mechanisms.The results show that the structural characteristics of the rock mass control its macroscopic failure mode.Initial damage promotes microcrack development,influences the fracture mode,and increases the proportion of high-frequency(200−280 kHz)acoustic emission events during creep.Meanwhile,initial damage exacerbates creep characteristics,increasing the creep rate,shortening total creep failure time,and reducing long-term strength.The damage failure is attributed to:the generation of internal cracks and pores in the rock caused by CLU;mineral hydrolysis and expansion-contraction due to CDW,resulting in weakened intergranular cementation;and full development of cracks and pores under creep stress.Additionally,the deformation difference coefficient and the coefficient of variation of RA/AF values can serve as precursor indicators for creep failure.
