Simulation results reveal that during the dual-track SLM process, increasing laser power results in greater thermal accumulation, leading to a molten pool of larger volume and coarser grains. Reducing scanning speed enhances remelting and promotes cellular growth at the top of molten pool, whereas faster scanning speed leads to rougher melt tracks and finer grains. Notably, hatch spacing significantly influences the molten pool dimensions and microstructures, and smaller hatch spacing promotes remelting. Furthermore, the orientations of grains in the second track during zigzag scanning differ markedly from those in the first track. More importantly, compared with those after the first track, both the temperature gradient and cooling rate at the boundaries of remelting molten pool are reduced after the second track scanning, resulting in slower interface velocity and significant change in solidification microstructure. This research provides a theoretical foundation for controlling non-equilibrium microstructure and offering novel insights into the optimization of SLM process parameters of titanium alloys.展开更多

Method: Using the convenience sampling method, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 292 nursing students from a medical college in Jiangxi Province, using the Peer Caring Behavior Scale and the Jefferson Scale of Empathy. Results: The score for peer caring behavior among undergraduate nursing students was 85.00 (78.00-92.00), and the score for empathy was 101.00 (92.00-110.00). A positive correlation was found between the two (r = 0.362, p < 0.05). Conclusion: The level of peer caring behavior among undergraduate nursing students is above average, while their empathy level is moderate, with a positive correlation between the two. This suggests that nursing educators should strengthen the development of peer caring behavior, which may help enhance the empathy of undergraduate nursing students.展开更多

文摘To explore the formation mechanism of anisotropy in Ti-6Al-4V alloy fabricated by selective laser melting(SLM),the compressive mechanical properties,microhardness,microstructure,and crystallographic orientation of the alloy across different planes were investigated.The anisotropy of SLM-fabricated Ti-6Al-4V alloys was analyzed,and the electron backscatter diffraction technique was used to investigate the influence of different grain types and orientations on the stress-strain distribution at various scales.Results reveal that in room-temperature compression tests at a strain rate of 10^(-3) s^(-1),both the compressive yield strength and microhardness vary along the deposition direction,indicating a certain degree of mechanical property anisotropy.The alloy exhibits a columnar microstructure;along the deposition direction,the grains appear equiaxed,and they have internal hexagonal close-packed(hcp)α/α'martensitic structure.α'phase has a preferential orientation approximately along the<0001>direction.Anisotropy arises from the high aspect ratio of columnar grains,along with the weak texture of the microstructure and low symmetry of the hcp crystal structure.
文摘Behavior recognition of Hu sheep contributes to their intensive and intelligent farming.Due to the generally high density of Hu sheep farming,severe occlusion occurs among different behaviors and even among sheep performing the same behavior,leading to missing and false detection issues in existing behavior recognition methods.A high-low frequency aggregated attention and negative sample comprehensive score loss and comprehensive score soft non-maximum suppression-YOLO(HLNC-YOLO)was proposed for identifying the behavior of Hu sheep,addressing the issues of missed and erroneous detections caused by occlusion between Hu sheep in intensive farming.Firstly,images of four typical behaviors-standing,lying,eating,and drinking-were collected from the sheep farm to construct the Hu sheep behavior dataset(HSBD).Next,to solve the occlusion issues,during the training phase,the C2F-HLAtt module was integrated,which combined high-low frequency aggregation attention,into the YOLO v8 Backbone to perceive occluded objects and introduce an auxiliary reversible branch to retain more effective features.Using comprehensive score regression loss(CSLoss)to reduce the scores of suboptimal boxes and enhance the comprehensive scores of occluded object boxes.Finally,the soft comprehensive score non-maximal suppression(Soft-CS-NMS)algorithm filtered prediction boxes during the inferencing.Testing on the HSBD,HLNC-YOLO achieved a mean average precision(mAP@50)of 87.8%,with a memory footprint of 17.4 MB.This represented an improvement of 7.1,2.2,4.6,and 11 percentage points over YOLO v8,YOLO v9,YOLO v10,and Faster R-CNN,respectively.Research indicated that the HLNC-YOLO accurately identified the behavior of Hu sheep in intensive farming and possessed generalization capabilities,providing technical support for smart farming.

文摘A multi-physics approach was used to quantify the effect of process parameters (laser power, scanning speed, hatch spacing, and scanning strategy) on the thermal history and corresponding microstructure evolution of Ti-25Nb (at%) alloy during the dual-track selective laser melting (SLM) process. Simulation results reveal that during the dual-track SLM process, increasing laser power results in greater thermal accumulation, leading to a molten pool of larger volume and coarser grains. Reducing scanning speed enhances remelting and promotes cellular growth at the top of molten pool, whereas faster scanning speed leads to rougher melt tracks and finer grains. Notably, hatch spacing significantly influences the molten pool dimensions and microstructures, and smaller hatch spacing promotes remelting. Furthermore, the orientations of grains in the second track during zigzag scanning differ markedly from those in the first track. More importantly, compared with those after the first track, both the temperature gradient and cooling rate at the boundaries of remelting molten pool are reduced after the second track scanning, resulting in slower interface velocity and significant change in solidification microstructure. This research provides a theoretical foundation for controlling non-equilibrium microstructure and offering novel insights into the optimization of SLM process parameters of titanium alloys.
文摘To investigate the influence of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy with as-homogenized and as-rolled initial microstructures on the tensile flow behavior,isothermal tensile tests were conducted on a GLEEBLE-3500 isothermal simulator at temperatures of 380-440℃and strain rates of 0.05-1 s^(−1).The Johnson-Cook model,Hensel-Spittel model,strain-compensated Arrhenius model,and critical fracture strain model were established.Results show that through the evaluation of the models using the correlation coefficient(R)and the average absolute relative error,the strain-compensated Arrhenius model can represent the flow behavior of the alloy more accurately.Shear bands are more pronounced in the as-homogenized specimens,whereas dynamic recrystallization is predominantly observed in as-rolled specimens.Fracture morphology analysis reveals that a mixed fracture mechanism is prevalent in the as-homogenized specimen,whereas a ductile fracture mechanism is predominant in the as-rolled specimen.The processing maps indicate that the unstable region is reduced in the as-rolled specimens compared with that in the as-homogenized specimens.The optimal hot working windows for the as-homogenized and as-rolled specimens are determined as 410-440℃/0.14-1 s^(−1)and 380-400℃/0.05-0.29 s^(−1),respectively.

文摘The TiB+TiC dual-reinforced B_(4)C/TC4 composite was in-situ fabricated via incorporating 0.5wt%B_(4)C reinforcement during the laser melting deposition process.Different heat treatments of annealing and solid solution were used to regulate the microstructure,mechanical properties,and corrosion properties of B_(4)C/TC4 composite.Results show that with the increase in temperature from 500℃to 800°C,partial lamellarα-Ti in the as-deposited sample is gradually transformed into equiaxedα-Ti,accompanied by the disappearance of basketweave microstructure.At 1100°C,a small portion of TiC phase suffers fusion.This composite exhibits the optimal combination of strength and plasticity after annealing at 500℃for 4 h followed by furnace cooling,which is attributed to the stress release effect and the refined basketweave microstructure.However,this composite shows a decline in corrosion resistance after various heat treatments due to grain coarsening and micro-galvanic corrosion.

文摘In this article,by employing the Hirota bilinear approach and the long wave limit method,we not only derive soliton solutions,lump solutions,and hybrid solutions for the(2+1)-dimensional Yu-Toda-Sasa-Fukuyama(YTSF)equation,but also analyze the dynamical behaviors of nonlinear local wave propagation in shallow water.Firstly,based on the Hirota bilinear approach,one to four-order soliton solutions of the YTSF equation are obtained,and the effects of different parameters on the amplitude,propagation trajectory,and displacement of solitons are investigated.Secondly,using the long wave limit approach,one to three-order lump solutions and various physical quantities of the YTSF equation are derived.It is found that the real and imaginary parts of the parameter pi dominate the propagation trajectory and the shape of lump waves,respectively.Furthermore,we construct the hybrid solution for the YTSF equation,leading to the conclusion that the interaction between lumps and solitons constitutes an elastic collision.To intuitively understand the dynamic behaviors of these solutions,we conduct numerical simulations to present vivid three-dimensional visualizations.

文摘Residential energy-use behavior and energy-saving awareness play a crucial role in sustainable urban energy planning and building energy efficiency,particularly under the pressures of climate change.However,existing studies often lack comparative analysis of urban-rural differences and tend to focus excessively on behavior patterns while neglecting the dimension of energysaving awareness.With China’s urbanization rate reaching 66.16%,understanding such regional disparities has become increasingly important.To address these research gaps,this study conducts a large-scale survey on space cooling behaviors among residents in Beijing,a representative Chinese megacity.It should be noted that living standards in such megacities are generally higher than the national average,which may shape distinctive energy-use profiles.Analyzing 1573valid samples(1064 urban/442 rural)in 2024,this study employed K-Prototypes and K-Modes clustering to identify typical cooling behavior and energy-saving awareness pattems,followed by Kendall/Chi-square correlation tests and XGBoost importance analysis to determine key influencing factors,with subsequent urban-rural comparative analysis.Results indicate that urban residents are primarily heat-sensitive or heat-tolerant,with a secondary patten of mid-low temperature preference,and generally exhibit long cooling durations;rural behavior is dominated by heat-tolerant type,followed by heat-sensitive,mid-low temperature preference,and never-on types as secondary patterns;both urban and rural areas exhibit energy-savingawareness characterized by low consumption-lowwillingness,though urban areas show marginally higher motivation;energy-saving awareness correlates with cooling behavior in rural areas,but this relationship weakens significantly in urban contexts.

文摘Selective laser melting(SLM)is an advanced additive manufacturing technique that enables the fabrication of complex metal components with high density,precision,and design flexibility.A novel Sc-free Al-4.58Mg-1.17Mn-1.59Zr-1.45Ti alloy was successfully fabricated via SLM,achieving a relative density of~99.89%.The microstructure of the as-fabricated alloy was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy,which revealed refined equiaxed grains,a high density of low-angle grain boundaries and dislocation structures,as well as Mg segregation along grain boundaries.Additionally,a variety of dispersed precipitates were identified,including Mg-containing oxides,L1_(2)-Al_(3)(Ti_(x),Zr_(1−x)),and Al_(3)Zr particles.Room-temperature tensile tests showed that the alloy exhibits an excellent combination of strength and ductility,with a yield strength of 453.2±12 MPa,an ultimate tensile strength of 515.1±8 MPa,and an elongation of 22.5%±0.3%.The high strength was attributed to the combined effects of grain boundary strengthening,solid solution strengthening,precipitation strengthening,and dislocation strengthening.The developed Sc-free Al-Mg-Mn-Zr-Ti alloy demonstrates significant potential as an economical high-strength lightweight material for SLM-based manufacturing applications.

文摘In order to reveal the cavitation erosion mechanisms of Fe_(50)Mn_(30)Co_(10)Cr_(10)coating prepared by laser melting deposition(LMD)technique,the phase composition evolution,microstructure,microhardness,cavitation erosion resistance and failure mechanisms were investigated.The results demonstrate that the amount of martensite HCPεphase of the coating surface increased by a factor of 2.43,and the microhardness increased from HV 270 to HV 410 after 20 h of cavitation erosion test in distilled water.The cumulative volume loss of the coating was approximately 55%less than that of AlCoCrxCuFe(x=2.0),and the cumulative mean depth of erosion(MDE)was 9%that of FeCoCrAlNiTix(x=2.0).The surface strength and plasticity of the coating were further strengthened in the process of cavitation erosion due to the back stress strengthening and work hardening mechanism caused by the heterogeneous structure,which effectively improved the cavitation erosion resistance of the coating.
文摘Eco-driving behaviors have been recommended around the world because the transport is a key factor of energy use and pollution emissions.Therefore,based on the driving decision model,this paper introduces three aspects of the driving decisions(strategic decision,tactical decision and operation decision)to analyze the economy of vehicle energy.The analytic hierarchy process(AHP)is used to assign the weight of the internal evaluation indexes,so as to form a complete assessment for drivers'eco-driving behaviors.The research result can not only quantitatively describe the energy-saving effect of drivers'decisions,but also put forward targeted driving suggestions to optimize drivers'eco-driving behaviors.This assessment model helps to clarify the potential of eco-driving on energy economy of transportation in a hierarchical way,and provides a valuable theoretical basis for the further promotion and application of eco-driving education.

文摘Objective: To understand the current status of peer caring behavior and empathy among undergraduate nursing students and to explore the relationship between the two. Method: Using the convenience sampling method, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 292 nursing students from a medical college in Jiangxi Province, using the Peer Caring Behavior Scale and the Jefferson Scale of Empathy. Results: The score for peer caring behavior among undergraduate nursing students was 85.00 (78.00-92.00), and the score for empathy was 101.00 (92.00-110.00). A positive correlation was found between the two (r = 0.362, p < 0.05). Conclusion: The level of peer caring behavior among undergraduate nursing students is above average, while their empathy level is moderate, with a positive correlation between the two. This suggests that nursing educators should strengthen the development of peer caring behavior, which may help enhance the empathy of undergraduate nursing students.

文摘The electric arc furnace(EAF)offers advantages in energy savings,environmental protection,and high efficiency by using scrap as the primary charge and utilizing a high-temperature electric arc as the main heat source for steel smelting.The improvement of EAF smelting efficiency is primarily influenced by three key factors:the heat transfer efficiency of the electric arc,the intensity of molten pool stirring,and the melting rate of scrap.The arc heat transfer efficiency determines the energy input efficiency and the maximum smelting temperature of the EAF.Molten pool stirring intensity plays a crucial role in ensuring uniformity in temperature,composition,and flow within the furnace,preventing the formation of dead zones.The scrap melting rate is a decisive factor in EAF smelting efficiency,largely governed by the coupling of heat and mass transfer.Thus,understanding not only the rapid melting mechanism of scrap but also the impact of arc heat transfer and molten pool stirring is essential to optimizing the smelting process.Advancing research in these areas is critical for shortening the EAF smelting cycle,reducing energy consumption,lowering costs,and improving resource utilization.Therefore,recent achievements and development trends in fundamental research on enhancing EAF smelting efficiency were summarized.
