In this study, a high-temperature titanium alloy, Ti-6.5Al-3.5Mo-1.5Zr-0.3Si, was prepared under different HIP temperatures (880–1000℃), and the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties were systematically investigated. The results demonstrated that the HIPed alloys were predominantly composed of more than 80 vol.% α phase and a small amount of β phase, and their phase compositions were basically unaffected by the HIP temperatures. Under the typical single-temperature-maintained HIP (STM-HIP) regime, the microstructure of alloy significantly coarsened as the HIP temperature increased, and the alloy strength exhibited an obvious linear negative correlation with the HIP temperature. On the basis of Hall–Petch relation, the prediction model of grain size was established, and the mathematical equation between HIP temperature and grain size (d=M(T_(HIP-N)^(-2))) was deduced. Furthermore, a possible evolution mechanism of microstructure was proposed, which could be divided into the decomposition of initial α′ martensite for as-received powder, formation of the globular α grains in prior particle boundaries (PPBs) region, and precipitation of the platelet α grains in non-PPBs region. For these alloys prepared by the dual-temperature-maintained HIP (DTM-HIP) regime, although their tensile properties were comparable to that of alloy prepared by STM-HIP regime with same high-temperature holding stage, higher proportion of globular α grains occurred due to more recrystallization nucleation during the low-temperature holding stage, which probably provided a solution for improving the dynamic service performance of HIPed alloys.展开更多

文摘The waterproof performance,mechanical properties,chemical composition,microstructure,and pore structure of hydrophobically-modified geopolymer concrete are investigated before and after dry-wet cycles,to determine the long-term feasibility of using hydrophobically-modified geopolymer concrete in wet environments.We use two types of organic modifying agents:polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)and sodium methyl siliconate(SMS).The experimental results show that incorporating 2%–6%PDMS or 5%–15%SMS can make the concrete hydrophobic,with water absorption and chloride transport rates decreasing by up to 94.3%.We also analyze the bonding modes of organic molecules and geopolymer gels,as well as their evolution mechanisms during dry-wet cycles.PDMS-modified geopolymer concrete is found to exhibit long-term waterproof performance that is not weakened by dry-wet cycles.This is attributed to the robust combination of organic components and the geopolymer gel skeleton formed through phase cross-linking.Meanwhile,PDMS-modified geopolymer concrete’s hydrophobicity,strength,and microstructure are essentially unaffected.In contrast,SMS-modified geopolymer concrete shows higher water sensitivity,although it does maintain efficient waterproof performance.Due to relatively low binding energy,the dry-wet cycles may lead to the detachment of some SMS molecules from the gel network,which results in a decrease of 18.6%in compressive strength and an increase of 37.6%in total porosity.This work confirms the utility of hydrophobically-modified geopolymer concrete as a building material for long-term service in wet environments,for instance,areas with frequent precipitation,or splash and tidal zones.

文摘The effect of high welding heat inputs in the range of 50–200 kJ/cm on the microstructural evolution,MX(M=Ti,Nb and V;X=N and C)precipitation and mechanical properties was investigated in the coarse-grained heat-affected zone(CGHAZ)of a high-Nb(0.10 wt.%)structural steel.The results showed that the primary microconstituents varied from lath bainite(LB)to intragranular acicular ferrite(IAF)+intragranular polygonal ferrite(IPF),and the most content of IAF was acquired at 100 kJ/cm.Moreover,the submicron Ti-and Nb-rich MX precipitates not only pinned prior austenite grain boundaries but also facilitated IAF and IPF nucleation with the Kurdjumov–Sachs orientation relationship of[011]_(MX)//[111]_(Ferrite);the nanoscale V-rich MX precipitates hindered dislocation movement and followed the Baker–Nutting orientation relationship of[001]_(MX)//[001]_(Ferrite)with ferrite matrix,synergistically strengthening and toughening the CGHAZ.In addition,the−20℃impact absorbed energy firstly elevated from 93±5.2 J at 50 kJ/cm to 131±5.4 J at 100 kJ/cm and finally decreased to 59±3.0 J at 200 kJ/cm,being related to the IAF content,while the microhardness decreased from 312±26.1 to 269±12.9 HV0.1,because of the coarsened microstructure and the decreased content of LB and martensite.Compared to the CGHAZ properties with 0.05 wt.%Nb,a higher Nb content produced better low-temperature toughness,as more solid dissolved Nb atoms and precipitated Nb-rich MX particles in austenite limited prior austenite grain growth and promoted IAF formation.Furthermore,the welding process at 100 kJ/cm was most applicable for the high-Nb steel.

文摘ZrCoRE(RE denotes rare earth elements)non-evaporable getter films have significant applications in vacuum packaging of micro-electro mechanical system devices because of their excellent gas adsorption performance,low activation temperature and environmental friendliness.The films were deposited using DC magnetron sputtering with argon and krypton gases under various deposition pressures.The effects of sputtering gas type and pressure on the morphology and hydrogen adsorption performance of ZrCoRE films were investigated.Results show that the films prepared in Ar exhibit a relatively dense structure with fewer grain boundaries.The increase in Ar pressure results in more grain boundaries and gap structures in the films.In contrast,films deposited in Kr display a higher density of grain boundaries and cluster structures,and the films have an obvious columnar crystal structure,with numerous interfaces and gaps distributed between the columnar structures,providing more paths for gas diffusion.As Kr pressure increases,the film demonstrates more pronounced continuous columnar structure growth,accompanied by deeper and wider grain boundaries.This structural configuration provides a larger specific surface area,which significantly improves the hydrogen adsorption speed and capacity.Consequently,high Ar and Kr pressures are beneficial to improve the adsorption performance.

文摘This research focused on the influences of Cr element doping on the microstructure,thermal stability,microhardness,soft magnetic,and anti-corrosion properties of FeCoNiSiB multi-principal element alloys.The as-received Fe-Co-Ni-Si-B-Cr alloy ribbons made by melt-spinning technique could maintain amorphous nature.The glass-transition temperature and onset crystallization temperature become lower with the addition of Cr,and the highest values are 782.0 K and 821.5 K,respectively.When the Cr content reaches 3at.%,the alloy owns the best soft magnetic performance with the saturation magnetic flux density of~0.578 T and coercivity of~5.5 A·m^(-1)among the studied melt-spun ribbon samples.The microhardness of all alloy ribbons reduces with an increasing Cr content on the whole,and the values are 810 HV_(0.5) or above.The corrosion behavior of these multi-principal element amorphous alloys containing Cr was also investigated in detail.As the Cr content increases,the corrosion resistance becomes superior and the specimens present the obvious passive regions in 3.5wt.%NaCl solution.The glassy ribbons with 8at.%Cr have the highest self-corrosion potential of-0.340 V and pitting potential of 0.288 V as well as the widest passive region of 0.628 V.Besides,the corroded micrographs of alloy ribbons immersed in corrosive environment lasting 100 h are also presented,which further confirms the above-mentioned experimental results.This research deepens the understanding about the role of Cr element in the microstructure and a series of physical and chemical properties of Fe-Co-Ni-Si-B-Cr multi-principal element amorphous alloys.

文摘With the laser remelting of cast alloys combined with non-equilibrium liquidus projection thermodynamic calculations,a high-strength and heat-resistant Al-3Fe-2Mn alloy was designed.Incorporating Mn atoms into the metastable nanoscale Al_(6)Fe phase,occupying some lattice sites,enhances its thermal stability.Additionally,during rapid solidification of laser powder bed fusion(L-PBF),the solubility of Fe and Mn elements in the aluminum alloy increases significantly,forming a supersaturated solid solution with improved strength.This alloy demonstrates excellent processability,achieving a relative density of over 99%,and tensile strengths of 295 MPa at 200℃ and 230 MPa at 300℃.The Al-3Fe-2Mn alloy holds great potential for wide applications due to its high strength at high temperature.

文摘We have described in detail the effects of nano-SiO_(2),nano-CaCO_(3),carbon nanotubes,and nano-Al_(2)O_(3) on geopolymer concrete from the perspectives of macro mechanics and microstructure.The existing research results show that the mechanism of nano-materials on geopolymer concrete mainly includes the filling effect,nucleation effect,and bridging effect,the appropriate amount of nano-materials can be used as fillers to reduce the porosity of geopolymer concrete,and can also react with Ca(OH)2 to produce C-S-H gel,thereby improving the mechanical properties of geopolymer concrete.The optimum content of nano-SiO_(2) is between 1.0%and 2.0%.The optimum content of nano-CaCO_(3) is between 2.0%and 3.0%.The optimum content of carbon nanotubes is between 0.1%and 0.2%.The optimum content of nano-Al_(2)O_(3) is between 1.0%and 2.0%.The main problems existing in the research and application of nanomaterial-modified geopolymer concrete are summarized,which lays a foundation for the further application of nanomaterial in geopolymer concrete.
文摘In-situ formed high Mn steel coating reinforced by carbides was formed by laser surface alloying(LSA).Laser alloyed layers on 1Cr18Ni9Ti steel with Mn+W_(2)C(specimen A),Mn+NiWC(specimen B)and Mn+SiC(specimen C)powders were fabricated to improve the wear and corrosion behavior of 1Cr18Ni9Ti steel blades in high speed mixers.Microstructure evolution,phases,element distribution,microhardness,wear and corrosion behavior of the laser alloyed layers were investigated.Results indicated that high Mn steel matrix composites with undissolved W_(2)C,WC and other in-situ formed carbides were formed by LSA with Mn+W_(2)C and Mn+NiWC while SiC totally dissolved into the high Mn matrix when adding Mn+SiC.Ni as the binding phase in Ni-WC powder decreased the crack sensitivity of the alloyed layer as compared with the addition of W_(2)C powder.An improvement in average microhardness was achieved in the matrix in specimen A,B and C,with the value of 615,602 and 277 HV_(0.5),while that of the substrate was 212 HV_(0.5).The increase of microhardness,wear and corrosion resistance is highly corelated to microstructure,formed phases,type and content of carbides,micro-hardness and toughness of the alloyed layers.

文摘The effect of rare earth addition on the microstructure and mechanical performances of as-cast and wrought Al alloys has been attracting increasing attention recently.Rare earth addition has great potential in modifying the structure and improving the properties of materials.However,there are currently few reports about the effect of rare earth addition on the microstructure and performances of Al alloys prepared via selective laser melting.Here,AlSi10Mg alloys were manufactured using selective laser melting,and the effect of Er addition was investigated.The results indicate that Er addition leads toα-Al refinement and modifies the minority Si phase.The formation of the Al_(3)Er phase induced by Er addition enhances the stren gth of the material.Modification of the Si phase also increases ductility.This strategy can help improve the mechanical performance of alum inum alloys prepared via selective laser melting.

文摘The microstructure and mechanical performance of the unidirectionally and cross-directionally rolled Mg-8Li-6Zn-1Y(in wt.%)sheets have been investigated and compared.It reveals that after the unidirectional rolling(UR),the broken I-phase particles are aggregated at theα-Mg/β-Li phase interfaces.However,the cross-rolling(CR)process can not only severely break the bulk I-phase,but also cause the obviously uniform distribution of I-phase particles in the matrix phases.Moreover,the average grain size of the CR samples is 3.61μm and about 50%that of the UR samples.The maximum texture intensities ofα-Mg andβ-Li phases in the CR samples are slightly stronger than those in the UR samples.Tensile results demonstrate that the CR process can effectively enhance the tensile properties and remarkably reduce the mechanical anisotropy of the alloy.For the UR samples,the yield strength,ultimate tensile strength,and elongation ratio along the rolling direction(RD)are 164 MPa,198 MPa,and 16.4%,whereas those along the transverse direction(TD)are 157 MPa,185 MPa,and 22.0%,respectively.For the CR samples,their mechanical properties are basically the same and the mechanical anisotropy is almost eliminated.The yield strength,ultimate tensile strength,and elongation ratio along the cross-rolling direction 1(CRD1)and 2(CRD2)are respectively measured to be 181 MPa and 182 MPa,220 MPa and 218 MPa,20.6%and 20.7%.Failure analysis indicates that for the UR samples being tensile tested along the RD and TD,microcracks are preferentially initiated in the region of aggregated I-phase particles.For the CR samples being tensile tested along both two cross-rolling directions,the initiation of micro-cracks mainly occurs at the I-phase/matrix phase interfaces and in the interior of matrix phases.
文摘The available test methods for optimal moisture content of cold recycled mixture(CRM)as well as its bulk specific gravity,and theoretical maximum relative density were analyzed in this work.Some test improvements were suggested to improve test control of the CRM road performance based on the discovered flaws.Besides,the properties of reclaimed asphalt pavement(RAP),including the content of old asphalt,penetration index,passing rate of 4.75 mm sieve,and gradation change rate after extraction,were examined.The effects of RAP characteristics on splitting tensile strength,water stability,the high-and low-temperature performance of emulsified asphalt CRM were studied.The results show that the optimum moisture content of CRM should be determined when the compaction work matches the specimen’s molding work.Among the analyzed methods of bulk specific gravity assessment,the dry-surface and CoreLok methods provide more robust and accurate results than the wax-sealing method,while the dry-surface method is the most cost-efficient.The modified theoretical maximum relative density test method is proposed,which can reduce the systematic error of the vacuum test method.The following RAP-CRM trends can be observed.The lower the content of old asphalt and the smaller the change rate of gradation,the smaller the voids and the better the water stability of CRM.The greater the penetration of old asphalt,the higher the fracture work and low-temperature splitting strength.The greater the penetration,the higher the passing rate of 4.75 mm sieve after extraction,and the worse the high-temperature performance of CRM.

文摘Because of the challenge of compounding lightweight,high-strength Ti/Al alloys due to their considerable disparity in properties,Al 6063 as intermediate layer was proposed to fabricate TC4/Al 6063/Al 7075 three-layer composite plate by explosive welding.The microscopic properties of each bonding interface were elucidated through field emission scanning electron microscope and electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD).A methodology combining finite element method-smoothed particle hydrodynamics(FEM-SPH)and molecular dynamics(MD)was proposed for the analysis of the forming and evolution characteristics of explosive welding interfaces at multi-scale.The results demonstrate that the bonding interface morphologies of TC4/Al 6063 and Al 6063/Al 7075 exhibit a flat and wavy configuration,without discernible defects or cracks.The phenomenon of grain refinement is observed in the vicinity of the two bonding interfaces.Furthermore,the degree of plastic deformation of TC4 and Al 7075 is more pronounced than that of Al 6063 in the intermediate layer.The interface morphology characteristics obtained by FEM-SPH simulation exhibit a high degree of similarity to the experimental results.MD simulations reveal that the diffusion of interfacial elements predominantly occurs during the unloading phase,and the simulated thickness of interfacial diffusion aligns well with experimental outcomes.The introduction of intermediate layer in the explosive welding process can effectively produce high-quality titanium/aluminum alloy composite plates.Furthermore,this approach offers a multi-scale simulation strategy for the study of explosive welding bonding interfaces.

文摘The characterization techniques were employed like transmission electron microscope,X-ray diffraction and microstructural characterization to investigate microstructural evolution and impact of precipitate-phase precipitation on strength and toughness of a self-developed 32Si_(2)CrNi_(2)MoVNb steel during the quenching and tempering process.Research outputs indicated that the steel microstructure under the quenching state could be composed of martensite with a high dislocation density,a small amount of residual austenite,and many dispersed spherical MC carbides.In details,after tempering at 200℃,fine needle-shapedε-carbides would precipitate,which may improve yield strength and toughness of the steel.However,as compared to that after tempering at 200℃,the average length of needle-shapedε-carbides was found to increase to 144.1±4 from 134.1±3 nm after tempering at 340℃.As a result,the yield strength may increase to 1505±40 MPa,and the impact absorption energy(V-notch)may also decrease.Moreover,after tempering at 450℃,thoseε-carbides in the steel may transform into coarse rod-shaped cementite,and dislocation recoveries at such high tempering temperature may lead to decrease of strength and toughness of the steel.Finally,the following properties could be obtained:a yield strength of 1440±35 MPa,an ultimate tensile strength of 1864±50 MPa and an impact absorption energy of 45.9±4 J,by means of rational composition design and microstructural control.

文摘Hot isostatic pressing (HIP) temperature has a significant impact on the service performance of powder metallurgy titanium alloys. In this study, a high-temperature titanium alloy, Ti-6.5Al-3.5Mo-1.5Zr-0.3Si, was prepared under different HIP temperatures (880–1000℃), and the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties were systematically investigated. The results demonstrated that the HIPed alloys were predominantly composed of more than 80 vol.% α phase and a small amount of β phase, and their phase compositions were basically unaffected by the HIP temperatures. Under the typical single-temperature-maintained HIP (STM-HIP) regime, the microstructure of alloy significantly coarsened as the HIP temperature increased, and the alloy strength exhibited an obvious linear negative correlation with the HIP temperature. On the basis of Hall–Petch relation, the prediction model of grain size was established, and the mathematical equation between HIP temperature and grain size (d=M(T_(HIP-N)^(-2))) was deduced. Furthermore, a possible evolution mechanism of microstructure was proposed, which could be divided into the decomposition of initial α′ martensite for as-received powder, formation of the globular α grains in prior particle boundaries (PPBs) region, and precipitation of the platelet α grains in non-PPBs region. For these alloys prepared by the dual-temperature-maintained HIP (DTM-HIP) regime, although their tensile properties were comparable to that of alloy prepared by STM-HIP regime with same high-temperature holding stage, higher proportion of globular α grains occurred due to more recrystallization nucleation during the low-temperature holding stage, which probably provided a solution for improving the dynamic service performance of HIPed alloys.

文摘In recent decades,control performance monitoring(CPM)has experienced remarkable progress in research and industrial applications.While CPM research has been investigated using various benchmarks,the historical data benchmark(HIS)has garnered the most attention due to its practicality and effectiveness.However,existing CPM reviews usually focus on the theoretical benchmark,and there is a lack of an in-depth review that thoroughly explores HIS-based methods.In this article,a comprehensive overview of HIS-based CPM is provided.First,we provide a novel static-dynamic perspective on data-level manifestations of control performance underlying typical controller capacities including regulation and servo:static and dynamic properties.The static property portrays time-independent variability in system output,and the dynamic property describes temporal behavior driven by closed-loop feedback.Accordingly,existing HIS-based CPM approaches and their intrinsic motivations are classified and analyzed from these two perspectives.Specifically,two mainstream solutions for CPM methods are summarized,including static analysis and dynamic analysis,which match data-driven techniques with actual controlling behavior.Furthermore,this paper also points out various opportunities and challenges faced in CPM for modern industry and provides promising directions in the context of artificial intelligence for inspiring future research.

文摘Al-Cu-Mn alloys are widely used to produce automobile components like cylinder heads and engine blocks because of their capability to retain excellent thermal and mechanical characteristics at high temperatures.However,the Al-Cu-Mn-based alloys demonstrate restricted fluidity,leading to casting defects such as shrinkage and incomplete filling.This research investigated the microstructure and fluidity of Al-4.7Cu-1.0Mn-0.5Mg(wt%)alloy with minor cerium(Ce)addition.The as-cast alloys predominantly compriseα-Al matrix,accompanied by the presence of Al_(2)Cu,Al_(6)Mn,and Al_(8)Cu_(4)Ce phases.The influence of adding Ce on the fluidity of the Al-4.7Cu-1.0Mn-0.5Mg alloy was investigated using a trispiral fluidity test mold in this research.The findings suggest that the addition of Ce within the range of 0.1 wt%to 0.5 wt%in the Al-4.7Cu-1.0Mn-0.5Mg alloy results in an enhancement in fluidity.Specifically,the alloy containing 0.4 wt%Ce exhibits a significant increase in fluidity distance,from 349.7 to 485.7 mm.This improvement can be attributed to the reduction in viscosity,the refinement of secondary dendrite arm spacing,and the modification of secondary phase particles.However,a higher concentration of Ce leads to a decrease in fluidity length,potentially due to the formation of Al_(8)Cu_(4)Ce.

文摘Excellent detonation performances and low sensitivity are prerequisites for the deployment of energetic materials.Exploring the underlying factors that affect impact sensitivity and detonation performances as well as exploring how to obtain materials with desired properties remains a long-term challenge.Machine learning with its ability to solve complex tasks and perform robust data processing can reveal the relationship between performance and descriptive indicators,potentially accelerating the development process of energetic materials.In this background,impact sensitivity,detonation performances,and 28 physicochemical parameters for 222 energetic materials from density functional theory calculations and published literature were sorted out.Four machine learning algorithms were employed to predict various properties of energetic materials,including impact sensitivity,detonation velocity,detonation pressure,and Gurney energy.Analysis of Pearson coefficients and feature importance showed that the heat of explosion,oxygen balance,decomposition products,and HOMO energy levels have a strong correlation with the impact sensitivity of energetic materials.Oxygen balance,decomposition products,and density have a strong correlation with detonation performances.Utilizing impact sensitivity of 2,3,4-trinitrotoluene and the detonation performances of 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene-1,3,5-triamine as the benchmark,the analysis of feature importance rankings and statistical data revealed the optimal range of key features balancing impact sensitivity and detonation performances:oxygen balance values should be between-40%and-30%,density should range from 1.66 to 1.72 g/cm^(3),HOMO energy levels should be between-6.34 and-6.31 eV,and lipophilicity should be between-1.0 and 0.1,4.49 and 5.59.These findings not only offer important insights into the impact sensitivity and detonation performances of energetic materials,but also provide a theoretical guidance paradigm for the design and development of new energetic materials with optimal detonation performances and reduced sensitivity.

文摘GH4169 joints manufactured by Linear Friction Welding(LFW)are subjected to tensile test and stair-case method to evaluate the High Cycle Fatigue(HCF)performance at 650℃.The yield and ultimate tensile strengths are 582 MPa and 820 MPa,respectively.The HCF strength of joint reaches 400 MPa,which is slightly lower than that of Base Metal(BM),indicating reliable quality of this type of joint.The microstructure observation results show that all cracks initiate at the inside of specimens and transfer into deeper region with decrease of external stress,and the crack initiation site is related with microhardness of matrix.The Electron Backscattered Diffraction(EBSD)results of the observed regions with different distances to fracture show that plastic deformation plays a key role in HCF,and the Schmid factor of most grains near fracture exceeds 0.4.In addition,the generation of twins plays a vital role in strain concentration release and coordinating plastic deformation among grains.
