文摘The composite structures/components made by friction stir lap welding(FSLW)of Mg alloy sheet and Al alloy sheet are of wide application potentials in the manufacturing sector of transportation vehicles.To further improve the joint quality,the ultrasonic vibration(UV)is exerted in FSLW,and the UV enhanced FSLW(UVeFSLW)was developed for making Mg-to-Al dissimilar joints.The numerical analysis and experimental investigation were combined to study the process mechanism in Mg/Al UVeFSLW.An equation related to the temperature and strain rate was derived to calculate the grain size at different locations of the weld nugget zone,and the effect of grain size distribution on the threshold thermal stress was included,so that the prediction accuracy of flow stress was further improved.With such modified constitutive equation,the numerical simulation was conducted to compare the heat generation,temperature profiles and material flow behaviors in Mg/Al UVeFSLW/FSLW processes.It was found that the exerted UV decreased the temperature at two checking points on the tool/workpiece interface from 707/671 K in FSLW to 689/660 K in UVeFSLW,which suppressed the IMCs thickness at Mg-Al interface from 1.7μm in FSLW to 1.1μm in UVeFSLW.The exerted UV increased the horizontal materials flow ability,and decreased the upward flow ability,which resulted in the increase of effective sheet thickness/effective lap width from 2.01/3.70 mm in FSLW to 2.04/4.84 mm in UVeFSLW.Therefore,the ultrasonic vibration improved the tensile shear strength of Mg-to-Al lap joints by 18%.

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.

文摘The study aimed to address the issue of elevated residual stress levels in dissimilar girth welds of cast steel joints.To achieve this,the hybrid welding technology,which yields high welding speeds while simultaneously reducing residual stresses,has been introduced.This study utilizes a numerical simulation method to investigate the temperature and residual stress field in the hybrid welding of G20Mn5 casting-Q355 low-alloy steel welded pipe.A com-parison of the findings of this study with those of other welding processes revealed the technological advantages of hybrid welding.The research outcomes show that due to geometric discontinuities and material differences,the temperature field of the joint exhibits uneven distribution characteristics,and the peak temperatures on the Q355 steel side exceeds those on the G20Mn5 steel side.An evident stress gra-dient is present in the residual stress field of the joint post-welding,with peak stress located at the weld root on the Q355 steel.Compared with arc welding,the hybrid welding leads to decreased residual stresses and deformation,with high stress outside the heat-affected zone diminishing rapidly.Furthermore,it significantly improves the welding efficiency.This study elucidates the distribution and underlying causes of thermal and residual stress fields in dissimilar girth welds.This serves as a foundation for the application of hybrid welding technology in welded cast steel joints.

文摘The steel tube arch rib in a large-span concrete-filled steel tube arch bridge has a large span and diameter,which also leads to a larger weld seam scale.Large-scale welding seams will inevitably cause more obvious welding residual stress(WRS).For the purpose of studying the influence of WRS from large-scale welding seam on the mechanical properties of steel tube arch rib during arch rib splicing,test research and numerical simulation analysis on the WRS in arch rib splicing based on the Guangxi Pingnan Third Bridge,which is the world’s largest span concrete-filled steel tube arch bridge,were conducted in this paper,and the distribution pattern of WRS at the arch rib splicing joint was obtained.Subsequently,the WRS was introduced into the mechanical performance analysis of joints and structures to analyze its effects.The findings reveal that the distribution of WRS in the arch rib is greatly influenced by the rib plate,and the axial WRS in the heat-affected zone are primarily tensile,while the circumferential WRS are distributed in an alternating pattern of tensile and compressive stresses along the circumferential direction of the main tube.Under the influence of WRS,the ultimate bearing capacity of the joint is reduced by 29.4%,the initial axial stiffness is reduced by 4.32%,and the vertical deformation of the arch rib structure is increased by 4.7%.

文摘Thickness of the intermetallic compounds(IMC)layer at the interface has a significant effect on the mechanical properties of Mg/Al dissimilar joints.However,the thickness of IMC layer can be only obtained by metallurgical microscopy,which is destructive and has to break down the weld.Therefore,it is crucial to find a reliable approach that can non-destructively predict the thickness of IMC layer in practical application.In the current study,Mg alloy and Al alloy were friction stir butt welded(FSW)under different tool rotation speeds(TRS)to obtain different thicknesses of IMC layers.As the TRS increased from 400 rpm to 1000 rpm,thickness of the IMC layer increased from 0.4μm to 1.3μm,the peak welding temperatures increased from 259℃to 402℃,and the Z-axis downforces decreased from10.5 kN to 3.2 k N during welding process.Higher TRS would generally induce higher welding heat input,which promotes the growth of the IMC layer and the softening of base materials.The IMC layer formed through solid-state diffusion and transformation instead of eutectic reaction according to the welding temperature history and interfacial microstructure,and its evolution process was clearly observed by plan view.In order to incorporate the effect of dramatic change of welding temperature which is the characteristic feature of FSW,Psd Voigt function was used to fit the welding temperature histories.A new prediction formula was then established to predict thicknesses of IMC layers with considering sharp welding temperature change.Predicted thicknesses gave good agreement with measured thicknesses obtained experimentally under different welding parameters,which confirmed the accuracy and reliability of the new prediction formula.Based on this prediction formula,the time period of temperature higher than 200℃during welding was found critical for the thickening of interfacial IMC layers.

文摘A three-dimensional numerical model of laser-arc hybrid plasma for aluminum alloy fillet joints is developed in this study.This mod-el accounts for the geometric complexity of fillet joints,the physical properties of shielding gases with varying He-Ar ratios,and the coupling between arc plasma and laser-induced metal plume.The accuracy of the model is validated using a high-speed camera.The effects of varying He contents in the shielding gas on both the temperature and flow velocity of hybrid plasma,as well as the distribu-tion of laser-induced metal vapor mass,were investigated separately.The maximum temperature and size of arc plasma decrease as the He volume ratio increases,the arc distribution becomes more concentrated,and its flow velocity initially decreases and then sharply increases.At high helium content,both the flow velocity of hybrid plasma and metal vapor are high,the metal vapor is con-centrated on the right side of keyhole,and its flow appears chaotic.The flow state of arc plasma is most stable when the shielding gas consists of 50%He+50%Ar.

文摘The growing incidence of cyberattacks necessitates a robust and effective Intrusion Detection Systems(IDS)for enhanced network security.While conventional IDSs can be unsuitable for detecting different and emerging attacks,there is a demand for better techniques to improve detection reliability.This study introduces a new method,the Deep Adaptive Multi-Layer Attention Network(DAMLAN),to boost the result of intrusion detection on network data.Due to its multi-scale attention mechanisms and graph features,DAMLAN aims to address both known and unknown intrusions.The real-world NSL-KDD dataset,a popular choice among IDS researchers,is used to assess the proposed model.There are 67,343 normal samples and 58,630 intrusion attacks in the training set,12,833 normal samples,and 9711 intrusion attacks in the test set.Thus,the proposed DAMLAN method is more effective than the standard models due to the consideration of patterns by the attention layers.The experimental performance of the proposed model demonstrates that it achieves 99.26%training accuracy and 90.68%testing accuracy,with precision reaching 98.54%on the training set and 96.64%on the testing set.The recall and F1 scores again support the model with training set values of 99.90%and 99.21%and testing set values of 86.65%and 91.37%.These results provide a strong basis for the claims made regarding the model’s potential to identify intrusion attacks and affirm its relatively strong overall performance,irrespective of type.Future work would employ more attempts to extend the scalability and applicability of DAMLAN for real-time use in intrusion detection systems.

文摘The influence of Ti and Zr,Nb alloying on the microstructures and performance of laser-welded molybdenum socket joints was investigated.Following Nb alloying,the average microhardness of the fusion zone(FZ)increased from HV 194.7 to HV 283.3.Additionally,Nb can react with O to form dispersed Nb_(2)O_(5) along grain boundaries,impeding grain boundary migration and dislocation movement while reducing the content of volatile Mo oxide along these boundaries.The incorporation of Nb in FZ partially inhibits pore defects and enhances joint load-bearing capacity.In comparison to the laser-welded joints without adding Nb(LW),the tensile strength of the laser-welded joints with Nb alloying(LW-Nb)was significantly improved by approximately 69%from 327.5 to 551.7 MPa.Furthermore,the fracture mechanism of the joints transitioned from intergranular fracture to transgranular fracture.

文摘Owing to process conditions such as uneven clearance of base metal assembly and welding deformation,it is difficult to obtain well-formed structural welds with robot constant specification parameters welding.Determining how to extract a structured,anti-interference,concise,and dynamic knowledge model from measurable data,and then adjust the welding parameters with corresponding control methods in real time is a central problem to be solved in welding formation control.Hence,this paper proposes a welding penetration control method based on a Neighborhood Rough Set-Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System(NRS-ANFIS)to achieve effective penetration control for the GMAW welding process.In orthogonal experiments,the NRS algorithm,which is based on visual sensing to obtain the properties of the weld pool and gap changes,is used to reduce the established frontal weld pool feature information decision table,and the minimum feature set of the weld pool tail width WTand the tail area coefficient CTSis obtained.The minimum feature set of the effective frontal weld pool,real-time line laser distance change,and real-time current information are used as the input for the ANFIS control system.The experimental results for the two groups of time-varying gaps demonstrate that under the condition of no preheating of the base metal,the complete welding penetration rate of the adjusted welding process parameters output by the trained ANFIS model reaches 87%,and the backside melting width is uniform and consistent,which meets the welding specification requirements.
