Firstly, we take two trivial quantum wires with a lattice constant ratio of 1:2 as an example. For the symmetric nearest-neighbor intra-chain hopping two-leg ladder, the inversion symmetry protected topological insulator phase with two degenerate topological edge states appears. When the inversion symmetry is broken, the topological insulators with one or two topological edge states of different energies and topological metals with edge states embedded in the bulk states could emerge depending on the filling factor. The topological origin of these topological states in the two-leg ladders is the topological properties of the Chern insulators and Chern metals. According to the arrangement of two trivial quantum wires, we construct two types of three-leg ladders. Each type of the three-leg ladder could be divided into one trivial subspace and one topological nontrivial subspace by unitary transformation. The topological nontrivial subspace corresponds to the effective two-leg ladder model. As the filling factor changes, the system could be in topological insulators or topological metals phases. When the two-leg ladder is constructed by two trivial quantum wires with a lattice constant ratio of 1:3 and 2:3, the system could also realize rich topological states such as the topological insulators and topological metals with the topological edge states. These rich topological states in the two-leg and three-leg ladders could be confirmed by current experimental techniques.展开更多

This imposes a reevaluation of the drawing procedure for constructing field curves with a constant field values around multiple parallel electrical conducting wires. To achieve this, we employ methods akin to those used for creating contours on topographical maps, ensuring a consistent numerical field value along the entire length of the field curves. Subsequent calculations will be conducted for scenarios where wires are not parallel.展开更多

文摘Micron-scale molybdenum(Mo)wires are vital in numerous technological applications,including micro-electromechanical systems and nanodevices.Understanding their mechanical behavior under cyclic torsion loading is critical in designing reliable and durable components.This work investigates the mechanical behavior and fracture characteristics of micron Mo wires under various torsional loading conditions,including monotonic,symmetric,and asymmetric cyclic torsion.The results reveal that the fractures observed in Mo wires exhibit a relatively planar characteristic with noticeable clockwise river-patterned cleavage steps under monotonic torsion,mirroring the direction of the torsional stress applied during the experiment.In terms of symmetric cyclic torsion,it is notable that cyclic softening becomes increasingly pronounced as the increase of strain amplitude.The fractures exhibit distinctive stratification,characterized by the longitudinal cracks propagating radially.When the unloading strain is less than the loaded strain,the extent of the strain hysteresis effect amplifies with an increase in unloading strain.And the observed fracture characteristics are consistent with those under monotonic torsion.Differently,when the loading strain equals the unloading strain,a distinctive fracture pattern emerges in the Mo wire,characterized by a"peak"shape.This research provides valuable insights for optimizing the mechanical reliability of micron wires in microscale and nanoscale applications.
文摘Building on a new model proposed recently for calculating constant electro-magnetic field values, the present article explores the electro-magnetic field configuration generated by parallel electrical wires. This imposes a reevaluation of the drawing procedure for constructing field curves with a constant field values around multiple parallel electrical conducting wires. To achieve this, we employ methods akin to those used for creating contours on topographical maps, ensuring a consistent numerical field value along the entire length of the field curves. Subsequent calculations will be conducted for scenarios where wires are not parallel.

文摘This study reports results for the morphology,crystal structure and critical parameters of Sm_(2)O_(3)-doped MgB_(2)wires with low and high initial filling densities.The transmission electron microscope(TEM)images were done for the longitudinal section of MgB_(2)wires.The results show that the Sm_(2)O_(3)admixture significantly changes the morphology of the MgB_(2)material,accelerates the formation of the MgB_(2)phase,does not form rectangular MgB_(2)crystallites,does not leave pure Mg,and forms Sm_(2)O_(3)areas of 10 nm and 20 nm.The effects of Sm_(2)O_(3)addition on MgB_(2)formation in superconducting wires were revealed in detail in this study.Additionally,Sm_(2)O_(3)causes the formation of point pinning regions that significantly increase the critical transport current density at the temperature range from 15 K to 30 K.The TEM images point out that rectangular MgB_(2)crystallites are formed in undoped Mg B_(2)wires,which have not been previously reported XRPD results showed that short-term heating allowed obtaining a larger amount of MgB_(2)phase for the MgB_(2)wire with high initial filling density.On the other hand,long heating time and high initial density slow down the creation of MgB_(2)phase when the Mg is in the solid state.

文摘Based on comprehensive observations of 20 wire icing events during winter from 2019 to 2021,we investigated the characteristics of the icing properties,the atmospheric boundary layer structure,the raindrop size distribution,and their associated effects on the ice accretion mechanism in the mountainous region of Southwest China.The maximum ice weight was positively correlated with the duration of ice accretion in the mountainous area.The duration of precipitation accounted for less than 20%of the icing period in the mountainous area,with solid-phase hydrometeors being predominant.Icing events,dominated by freezing rain(FR)and mixed rain–graupel(more than 70%),were characterized by glaze or highdensity mixed icing.The relationship between the melting energy and refreezing energy reflected the distribution characteristics of the proportion of FR under mixed-phase precipitation.The intensity of the warm layer and the dominant precipitation phase significantly affected the variations in the microphysical properties of FR.The melting of large dry snowflakes significantly contributed to FR in the mountainous areas,resulting in smaller generalized intercepts and larger mass-weighted mean diameters in the presence of a stronger warm layer.Under a weaker warm layer,the value of the massweighted mean diameter was significantly smaller because of the inability of large solid particles to melt.Finally,FR in the mountainous area dominated the ice weight during the rapid ice accumulation period.A numerical simulation of FR icing on wires effectively revealed the evolution of disaster-causing icing in mountainous areas.

文摘The feasibility of manufacturing Ti-6Al-4V samples through a combination of laser-aided additive manufacturing with powder(LAAM_(p))and wire(LAAM_(w))was explored.A process study was first conducted to successfully circumvent defects in Ti-6Al-4V deposits for LAAM_(p) and LAAM_(w),respectively.With the optimized process parameters,robust interfaces were achieved between powder/wire deposits and the forged substrate,as well as between powder and wire deposits.Microstructure characterization results revealed the epitaxial prior β grains in the deposited Ti-6Al-4V,wherein the powder deposit was dominated by a finerα′microstructure and the wire deposit was characterized by lamellar α phases.The mechanisms of microstructure formation and correlation with mechanical behavior were analyzed and discussed.The mechanical properties of the interfacial samples can meet the requirements of the relevant Aerospace Material Specifications(AMS 6932)even without post heat treatment.No fracture occurred within the interfacial area,further suggesting the robust interface.The findings of this study highlighted the feasibility of combining LAAM_(p) and LAAM_(w) in the direct manufacturing of Ti-6Al-4V parts in accordance with the required dimensional resolution and deposition rate,together with sound strength and ductility balance in the as-built condition.

文摘The ultrafine copper wire with a diameter of 18μm is prepared via cold drawing process from the single crystal downcast billet(Φ8 mm),taking a drawing strain to 12.19.In this paper,in-depth investigation of the microstructure feature,texture evolution,mechanical properties,and electrical conductivity of ultrafine wires ranging fromΦ361μm toΦ18μm is performed.Specially,the microstructure feature and texture type covering the whole longitudinal section of ultrafine wires are elaborately characterized.The results show that the average lamella thickness decreases from 1.63μm to 102 nm during the drawing process.Whereas,inhomogeneous texture evolution across different wire sections was observed.The main texture types of copper wires are comprised of<111>,<001>and<112>orientations.Specifically,the peripheral region is primarily dominated by<111>and<112>,while the central region is dominated by<001>and<111>.As the drawing strain increases,the volume fraction of hard orientation<111>with low Schmid factor increases,where notably higher fraction of<111>is resulted from the consumption of<112>and<001>for the wire ofΦ18μm.For drawn copper wire of 18μm,superior properties are obtained with a tensile strength of 729.8 MPa and an electrical conductivity of 86.9%IACS.Furthermore,it is found that grain strengthening,dislocation strengthening,and texture strengthening are three primary strengthening mechanisms of drawn copper wire,while the dislocation density is the main factor on the reducing of conductivity.

文摘The Kirschner wire(K-wire)is widely used in orthopedic external fixation due to its versatility and clinical effectiveness.However,a significant challenge associated with its use is the potential for bacterial migration,subsequent infection,and dislodgement as the wire penetrates the skin and bone.This study introduces a novel bioactive material,selenium/calcium silicate(Se/β-CS),achieved by integrating selenium-an essential trace element in the human body-into bioceramic calcium silicate.This integration was accomplished using a combined chemical co-deposition method and redox reaction.Furthermore,a uniform and controllable Se/β-CS coating was applied to the K-wire's surface using the Langmuir-Blodgett technique.This coating gradually releases active components-Si,Ca,and Se-that effectively eliminate bacterial infections and promote osteointegration.The findings of this study offer promising opportunities for the use of robust and multifunctional coating materials on implantable devices,particularly within the fields of orthopedics,transplantation,and surgery.

文摘Simultaneously improving the strength and electrical conductivity of conducting metallic materials is of great significance,but it still remains a key challenge as the two properties are often mutually exclusive.In this study,we demonstrate a“<111>oriented fibrous grains with ultra-high aspect ratio”strategy for breaking such a conflict in Cu wire,which relies on the distinctive spatial distribution of grain boundaries and the highly consistent hard orientation to play their respective roles in suffering loading and conducting,thereby enabling a separate optimization of both strength and electrical conductivity.Therefore,a processing route was designed,involving directional solidification followed by large drawing deformation,to successfully construct fibrous grains with an ultra-high aspect ratio in 596.7 and ultra-high<111>texture proportion over 97%,which achieves Cu wire with a remarkable combination of yield strength in 482.3 MPa and electrical conductivity in 101.63%IACS.Finally,the mechanisms for high strength and high electrical conductivity were quantitatively discussed.

文摘To investigate the performance of utilizing the shape memory effect of SMA(Shape Memory Alloy)wire to generate recovery stress,this paper performed single heating recovery stress tests and reciprocating heating-cooling recovery stress tests on SMA wire under varying initial strain conditions.The effects of various strains and different energized heating methods on the recovery stress of SMA wires were explored in the single heating tests.The SMA wire was strained from 2%to 8%initially,and two distinct heating approaches were employed:one using a large current interval for rapid heating and one using a small current interval for slower heating.The experimental outcomes reveal that during a single heating cycle,the temperature-recovery stress relationship of SMA wire exhibits three distinct stages:the martensite phase stage,the transition stage from martensite to austenite phase,and the austenite phase stage.Notably,the choice of heating method does not influence the maximum recovery stress value,and the correlation between initial strain and maximum recovery stress is predominantly linear.Moreover,conducting the reciprocating temperature rise and fall performance test is important to better simulate the scenario in practical engineering where multiple recovery stress in SMA wires for structural repair.In this test,two temperature cycling methods were studied:interval rise and fall,as well as direct rise and fall.In the case of utilizing the interval temperature rise and fall method,it was observed that the recovery stress associated with cooling was significantly higher than that corresponding to heating at the same temperature.Furthermore,the recovery stress was lower upon subsequent heating than that measured during the previous heating cycle.Based on the experimental results,a prediction model for the temperature-recovery stress relationship has been proposed to simplify numerical calculations.It is hoped that an approximate temperaturerecovery stress curve can be obtained from the parameters of the SMA wire.The calculated values derived from this model show good alignment with the measured values,indicating its reliability.

文摘Buckling failure in submarine cables presents a prevalent challenge in ocean engineering.This work aims to explore the buckling behavior of umbilical cables with damaged sheaths subjected to compression and bending cyclic loads.A finite element model is devised,incorporating a singular armor wire,a rigid core,and a damaged sheath.To scrutinize the buckling progression and corresponding deformation,axial compression and bending cyclic loads are introduced.The observations reveal that a reduction in axial compression results in a larger number of cycles before buckling ensues and progressively shifts the buckling position toward the extrados and fixed end.Decreasing the bending radius precipitates a reduction in the buckling cycle number and minimizes the deformation in the armor wire.Furthermore,an empirical model is presented to predict the occurrence of birdcage buckling,providing a means to anticipate buckling events and to estimate the requisite number of cycles leading to buckling.

文摘Ice cover on transmission lines is a significant issue that affects the safe operation of the power system.Accurate calculation of the thickness of wire icing can effectively prevent economic losses caused by ice disasters and reduce the impact of power outages on residents.However,under extreme weather conditions,strong instantaneous wind can cause tension sensors to fail,resulting in significant errors in the calculation of icing thickness in traditional mechanics-based models.In this paper,we propose a dynamic prediction model of wire icing thickness that can adapt to extreme weather environments.The model expands scarce raw data by the Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Network with Gradient Penalty(WGAN-GP)technique,records historical environmental information by a recurrent neural network,and evaluates the ice warning levels by a classifier.At each time point,the model diagnoses whether the current sensor failure is due to icing or strong winds.If it is determined that the wire is covered with ice,the icing thickness will be calculated after the wind-induced tension is removed from the ice-wind coupling tension.Our new model was evaluated using data from the power grid in an area with extreme weather.The results show that the proposed model has significant improvements in accuracy compared with traditional models.
