The stress and strain finite element analysis of anodic bonding can optimize the structure and process design, reduce the workload of the experiments, shorten the production cycle, improve the bonding quality, and reduce the process costs. In this paper, residual stresses and deformation in the static bonding two-layer （glass/aluminum）, three-layer （glass/aluminum/ glass）,five-layer（glass/aluminum/glass/aluminum/glass）and seven-layer （glass/aluminum/glass/aluminum/glass/ aluminum/glass） samples have been analyzed using nonlinear finite element simulation software MARC. The simulation results show that the shear stress distribution and deformation distribution in different multi-layer glass and aluminum samples are similar. The stress distribution along thickness at different typical positions in all multi-layer samples has characteristics of pulse pattern, which has pulse peak at the position of transition layers and then decreases abruptly to the minimum value at the positions of glass and aluminum. The maximum shear stress is located in the outside surface area in the transition layer between the top unconstrained glass layer and aluminum layer. The displacement distribution along thickness in all multi-layer samples increases gradually fi＇om the constrained bottom glass layer to the top unconstrained glass layer with abrupt step increase in the aluminum layers, The maximum deformations occur in aluminum layers. It is found that the minimum deformation distortion and the minimum shear stress occur in the three-layer static bonding sample.展开更多

And by means of Hermite′s quadrature formula with 20 nodes, we have made calculational programs and examples to show that the methods mentioned in this paper are effective. We think that these methods lay a foundation to study quantitatively crustal deformation due to groundwater drainage when we are engaged in high precision dynamic geodetic measurement on the area of steady flow of multilayered aquifers.展开更多

文摘During underground mining,accurate revelation on the deformation and failure mechanisms of a high-steep slope under multi-layer mining conditions facilitates the prevention and control of geological disasters in mines.Numerical simulation based on discrete element theory can be used to explore the characteristics and mechanism of action of deformation and failure of a slope under complex geological and multi-layer mining conditions.By utilising PFC2 D(particle flow code) software,the deformation and failure characteristics of a high-steep slope in Faer Coal Mine in Guizhou Province,China were investigated.Additionally,the mechanism of influence of different numbers of mining layers on the deformation and failure of the high and steep slope was elucidated.The result showed that after the goaf passed by the slope toe,multi-layer mining aggravated the subsidence and deformation of the slope toe:the slope toppled forward as it sank.The toppling of the slope changed the slope structures:the strata in the front of the slope were transformed from anti-dip to down-dip features.Extruded by collapsedtoppled rock mass,the slope toe and the rock mass located in the lower part of the slope toe generally exhibited a locking effect on the slope.Multi-layer mining degraded the overall stability of the slope,in that the total displacement of the slope was much greater than the total mining thickness of the coal seams.Based on the aforementioned research,ideas for preventing and controlling geological disasters during mining operations under a high-steep slope were proposed.

文摘Residual stresses and deformation of static bonding multi-layer Pyrex7740 glass and aluminum have important effects on performances of bonding parts. The stress and strain finite element analysis of anodic bonding can optimize the structure and process design, reduce the workload of the experiments, shorten the production cycle, improve the bonding quality, and reduce the process costs. In this paper, residual stresses and deformation in the static bonding two-layer （glass/aluminum）, three-layer （glass/aluminum/ glass）,five-layer（glass/aluminum/glass/aluminum/glass）and seven-layer （glass/aluminum/glass/aluminum/glass/ aluminum/glass） samples have been analyzed using nonlinear finite element simulation software MARC. The simulation results show that the shear stress distribution and deformation distribution in different multi-layer glass and aluminum samples are similar. The stress distribution along thickness at different typical positions in all multi-layer samples has characteristics of pulse pattern, which has pulse peak at the position of transition layers and then decreases abruptly to the minimum value at the positions of glass and aluminum. The maximum shear stress is located in the outside surface area in the transition layer between the top unconstrained glass layer and aluminum layer. The displacement distribution along thickness in all multi-layer samples increases gradually fi＇om the constrained bottom glass layer to the top unconstrained glass layer with abrupt step increase in the aluminum layers, The maximum deformations occur in aluminum layers. It is found that the minimum deformation distortion and the minimum shear stress occur in the three-layer static bonding sample.
文摘According to both the general formula of ground surface displacement by drainage from a well for radial permeable flow of underground water and the drawdown expressions for the flow in multilayered structural aquifers, we have derived the analytical expressions of surface displacement induced by steady flow withdrawal from a full penetrating well on phreatic water and confined water in multilayered structural aquifers and discussed the numerial integration scheme of these analytical expressions. And by means of Hermite′s quadrature formula with 20 nodes, we have made calculational programs and examples to show that the methods mentioned in this paper are effective. We think that these methods lay a foundation to study quantitatively crustal deformation due to groundwater drainage when we are engaged in high precision dynamic geodetic measurement on the area of steady flow of multilayered aquifers.

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.

文摘How to achieve high-entropy alloys(HEAs)with ultrahigh strength and ductility is a challenging issue.Precipitation strengthening is one of the methods to significantly enhance strength,but unfortunately,ductility will be lost.To overcome the strength-ductility trade-off,the strategy of this study is to induce the formation of high-density nanoprecipitates through dual aging(DA),triggering multiple deformation mechanisms,to obtain HEAs with ultrahigh strength and ductility.First,the effect of precold deformation on precipitation behavior was studied using Ni_(35)(CoFe)_(55)V_(5)Nb_(5)(at.%)HEAas the object.The results reveal that the activation energy of recrystallization is 112.2 kJ/mol.As the precold-deformation amount increases from 15%to 65%,the activation energy of precipitation gradually decreases from 178.8 to 159.7 kJ/mol.The precipitation time shortens,the size of the nanoprecipitate decreases,and the density increases.Subsequently,the thermal treatment parameters were optimized,and the DA process was customized based on the effect of precold deformation on precipitation behavior.High-density L1_(2) nanoprecipitates(~3.21×10^(25) m^(-3))were induced in the 65% precold-deformed HEA,which led to the simultaneous formation of twins and stacking fault(SF)networks during deformation.The yield strength(YS),ultimate tensile strength,and ductility of the DA-HEA are~2.0 GPa,~2.2 GPa,and~12.3%,respectively.Compared with the solid solution HEA,the YS of the DA-HEA increased by 1,657 MPa,possessing an astonishing increase of~440%.The high YS stems from the precipitation strengthening contributed by the L1_(2) nanoprecipitates and the dislocation strengthening contributed by precold deformation.The synergistically enhanced ductility stems from the high strain-hardening ability under the dual support of twinning-induced plasticity and SF-induced plasticity.

文摘Theβsolidifiedγ-TiAl alloy holds important application value in the aerospace industry,while its com-plex phase compositions and geometric structures pose challenges to its microstructure control during the thermal-mechanical process.The microstructure evolution of Ti-43Al-4Nb-1Mo-0.2B alloy at 1200℃/0.01 s−1 was investigated to clarify the coupling role of dynamic recrystallization(DRX)and phase transformation.The results revealed that the rate of DRX inα2+γlamellar colonies was comparatively slower than that inβo+γmixed structure,instead being accompanied by intense lamellar kinking and rotation.The initiation and development rates of DRX inα2,βo,andγphases decreased sequentially.The asynchronous DRX of the various geometric structures and phase compositions resulted in the un-even deformed microstructure,and the dynamic softening induced by lamellar kinking and rotation was replaced by strengthened DRX as strain increased.Additionally,the blockyα2 phase and the terminals ofα2 lamellae were the preferential DRX sites owing to the abundant activated slip systems.Theα2→βo transformation within lamellar colonies facilitated DRX and fragment ofα2 lamellae,while theα2→γtransformation promoted the decomposition ofα2 lamellae and DRX ofγlamellae.Moreover,the var-iedβo+γmixed structures underwent complicated evolution:(1)Theγ→βo transformation occurred at boundaries of lamellar colonies,followed by simultaneous DRX ofγlamellar terminals and neighboringβo phase;(2)DRX occurred earlier within the band-likeβo phase,with the delayed DRX in enclosedγphase;(3)DRX within theβo synapses and neighboringγphase was accelerated owing to generation of elastic stress field;(4)Dispersedβo particles triggered particle stimulated nucleation(PSN)ofγphase.Eventually,atomic diffusion along crystal defects inβo andγphases caused fracture of band-likeβo phase and formation of massiveβo particles,impeding grain boundary migration and hindering DRXed grain growth ofγphase.

文摘Improvements in aero-engine performance have made the structures of the aero-engine components increasingly complex.To better adapt to the processing requirements of narrow twisted channels such as an integral shrouded blisk,this study proposes an innovative method of electrochemical cutting in which a flexible tube electrode is controlled by online deformation during processing.In this study,the processing principle of electrochemical cutting with a flexible electrode for controlled online deformation(FECC)was revealed for the first time.The online deformation process of flexible electrodes and the machining process of profiles were analysed in depth,and the corresponding theoretical models were established.Conventional electrochemical machining(ECM)is a multi-physical field-coupled process involving electric and flow fields.In FECC,classical mechanics are introduced into the tool cathode,which must be loaded at all times during the machining process.Therefore,in this study,before and after the deformation of the flexible electrode,a corresponding simulation study was conducted to understand the influence of the online deformation of the flexible electrode on the flow and electric fields.The feasibility of flexible electrodes for online deformation and the validity of the theoretical model were verified by deformation measurements and in situ observation experiments.Finally,the method was successfully applied to the machining of nickel-based high-temperature alloys,and different specifications of flexible electrodes were used to complete the machining of the corresponding complex profiles,thereby verifying the feasibility and versatility of the method.The method proposed in this study breaks the tradition of using a non-deformable cathode for ECM and adopts a flexible electrode that can be deformed during the machining process as the tool cathode,which improves machining flexibility and provides a valuable reference to promote the ECM of complex profiles.

文摘Sudden temperature drops cause soils in natural environments to freeze unidirectionally,resulting in soil expansion and deformation that can lead to damage to engineering structures.The impact of temperature-induced freezing on deformation and solute migration in saline soils,especially under extended freezing,is not well understood due to the lack of knowledge regarding the microscopic mechanisms involved.This study investigated the expansion,deformation,and water-salt migration in chlorinated saline soils,materials commonly used for canal foundations in cold and arid regions,under different roof temperatures and soil compaction levels through unidirectional freezing experiments.The microscopic structures of saline soils were observed using scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and optical microscopy.A quantitative analysis of the microstructural data was conducted before and after freezing to elucidate the microscopic mechanisms of water-salt migration and deformation.The results indicate that soil swelling is enhanced by elevated roof temperatures approaching the soil's freezing point and soil compaction,which prolongs the duration and accelerates the rate of water-salt migration.The unidirectional freezing altered the microstructure of saline soils due to the continuous temperature gradients,leading to four distinct zones:natural frozen zone,peak frozen zone,gradual frozen zone,and unfrozen zone,each exhibiting significant changes in pore types and fractal dimensions.Vacuum suction at the colder end of the soil structure facilitates the upward migration of salt and water,which subsequently undergoes crystallization.This process expands the internal pore structure and causes swelling.The findings provide a theoretical basis for understanding the evolution of soil microstructure in cold and arid regions and for the management of saline soil engineering.

文摘River embankments are designed to defend against floods over coastal and riparian areas.It is important to early detect unexpected damages on embankments before they exacerbate.To continuously monitor the stability of the embankments and efficiently recognize such potential damages,this study takes SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar)derived deformation as an indicator of the embankment instability,and customizes a multi-temporal InSAR(Interferometric SAR)approach-small baseline subset.Specifically,during InSAR processing,we apply a two-step amplitude difference dispersion threshold method to extract InSAR measurement points,thus improving the point density within the embankment.We applied this method to the Kangshan Embankment(KE)using 147 Sentinel-1 acquired between 2017 and 2021.We categorized KE into Waterside Slope(WS),Embankment Top(ET),and Landside Slope(LS)using InSAR height estimation.Given the dominance of downslope movement,we developed a projection matrix from InSAR-derived deformation in the satellite line-of-sight direction onto WS and LS.The study shows that KE was generally stable during the five-year period,while WS,ET,and LS experienced different deformation processes.For instance,seasonal variation was observed from the deformation time series,especially between every April and November.We applied the principal component analysis to the time-series displacement and analyzed the results in conjunction with the rainfall data of Kangshan Township.It showed that deformation due to rainfall equals 80.93%,81.30%,and 82.46%of the total deformation for WS,ET,and LS,respectively,indicating that rainfall is one of the environmental driving factors affecting the deformations.We conclude that the proposed methodology is suited for systematic embankment monitoring and identifies major driving forces.

文摘Titanium alloys engineered in structural applications achieve ultrahigh strength primarily through precipitation strengthening of secondary α-phase(αs)during aging,while they often experience compromised ductility and toughness due to traditional strength-toughness tradeoff.In this study,we propose a novel strategy to address this conflict by introducing deformation kinks prior to conventional cold rolling(CR)and aging processes.These kinks are produced by cold forging(CF)to create macroscopic lamellar structures in β-grains,which alter strain partitioning during subsequent CR and ultimately tailor α_(s)-precipitation upon aging.As a result,an ultrafine duplex(αe+β)-structure is formed within kink interi-ors,while hierarchicalαs-precipitates are generated in the external β-matrix.This unique microstructure effectively enhances dislocation activity,promotes uniform plastic strain distribution and impedes crack propagation.Consequently,a simple Ti-V binary titanium alloy exhibits exceptional properties with ultra-high strength∼1636 MPa,decent ductility∼5.4% and appreciable fracture toughness∼36.1 MPa m^(1/2).The synergetic properties surpass those obtained through traditional CR and aging processes for the alloy and even outperform numerous multielement engineering titanium alloys reported in literature.Our findings open up a new avenue for overcoming the strength-toughness tradeoffof ultrahigh-strength titanium alloys,and also offer a facile production route towards structural materials for advanced performance.

文摘When the expressway crosses the goafs inevitably,the design is generally to build the road on coal pillars as much as possible.However,the existing coal pillars are often unable to meet relevant requirements of highway construction.Combining three-dimensional physical model tests,numerical simulations and field monitoring,with the Urumqi East Second Ring Road passing through acute inclined goafs as a background,the deformation and failure mechanism of the overlying rock and coal pillars in acute inclined goafs under expressway load were studied.And in accordance with construction requirements of subgrade,comprehensive consideration of the deformation and instability mechanism of acute inclined goafs,the treatment measures and suggestions for this type of geological disasters were put forward.The research results confirmed the rationality of coal pillars in acute inclined goafs under the expressway through grouting.According to the ratio of diff erent overlying rock thickness to coal pillar height,the change trend and value of the required grouting range were summarized,which can provide reference for similar projects.

文摘Catastrophic failure in engineering structures of island reefs would occur when the tertiary creep initiates in coral reef limestone with a transition from short-to long-term load.Due to the complexity of biological structures,the underlying micro-behaviors involving time-dependent deformation are poorly understood.For this,an abnormal phenomenon was observed where the axial and lateral creep deformations were mutually independent by a series of triaxial tests under constant stress and strain rate conditions.The significantly large lateral creep deformation implies that the creep process cannot be described in continuum mechanics regime.Herein,it is hypothesized that sliding mechanism of crystal cleavages dominates the lateral creep deformation in coral reef limestone.Then,approaches of polarizing microscope(PM)and scanning electronic microscope(SEM)are utilized to validate the hypothesis.It shows that the sliding behavior of crystal cleavages combats with conventional creep micro-mechanisms at certain condition.The former is sensitive to time and strain rate,and is merely activated in the creep regime.
