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 pre-weld heat treatment was carried out to obtain different initial microstructures of the GH4169 superalloy,and then Linear Friction Welding(LFW)was performed.The effect of the pre-weld heat treatment on the microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of the joint was analyzed,and the joint electrochemical corrosion behavior as well as the hot corrosion behavior was studied.The results show that the joint hardness of Base Metal(BM)increases after pre-weld heat treatment,and the strengthening phasesγ′andγ″further precipitate.However,the precipitation phases dissolve significantly in the Weld Zone(WZ)due to the thermal process of LFW.The corrosion resistance in BM is reduced after the pre-weld heat treatment,while it is similar in WZ with a slight decrease.The surface morphology of the BM and WZ can be generally divided into a loose and porous matrix and a scattered oxide particle layer after hot corrosion.The joint cross section exhibits a Cr-depleted zone with the diffusion of Cr to form an oxide film.The corrosion product mainly consists of Fe_(2)O_(3)/Fe_(3)O_(4) as the outer layer and Cr_(2)O_(3) as the inner layer.

文摘The hyperloop idea,which is one of the most ecofriendly,low-carbon emissions,and fossil fuel-efficient modes of transportation,has recently become quite popular.In this study,a double-sided linear induction motor(LIM)with 500 W of output power,60 N of thrust force and 200 V/38.58 Hz of supply voltage was designed to be used in hyperloop development competition hosted by the scientific and technological research council of turkey(TüB?TAK)rail transportation technologies institute(RUTE).In contrast to the studies in the literature,concentrated winding is preferred instead of distributed winding due to mechanical constraints.The electromagnetic design of LIM,whose mechanical and electrical requirements were determined considering the hyperloop development competition,was carried out by following certain steps.Then,the designed model was simulated and analyzed by finite element method(FEM),and the necessary optimizations have been performed to improve the motor characteristics.By examining the final model,the applicability of the concentrated winding type LIM for hyperloop technology has been investigated.Besides,the effects of primary material,railway material,and mechanical air-gap length on LIM performance were also investigated.In the practical phase of the study,the designed LIM has been prototyped and tested.The validation of the experimental results was achieved through good agreement with the finite element analysis results.

文摘Due to the heterogeneity of rock masses and the variability of in situ stress,the traditional linear inversion method is insufficiently accurate to achieve high accuracy of the in situ stress field.To address this challenge,nonlinear stress boundaries for a numerical model are determined through regression analysis of a series of nonlinear coefficient matrices,which are derived from the bubbling method.Considering the randomness and flexibility of the bubbling method,a parametric study is conducted to determine recommended ranges for these parameters,including the standard deviation(σb)of bubble radii,the non-uniform coefficient matrix number(λ)for nonlinear stress boundaries,and the number(m)and positions of in situ stress measurement points.A model case study provides a reference for the selection of these parameters.Additionally,when the nonlinear in situ stress inversion method is employed,stress distortion inevitably occurs near model boundaries,aligning with the Saint Venant's principle.Two strategies are proposed accordingly:employing a systematic reduction of nonlinear coefficients to achieve high inversion accuracy while minimizing significant stress distortion,and excluding regions with severe stress distortion near the model edges while utilizing the central part of the model for subsequent simulations.These two strategies have been successfully implemented in the nonlinear in situ stress inversion of the Xincheng Gold Mine and have achieved higher inversion accuracy than the linear method.Specifically,the linear and nonlinear inversion methods yield root mean square errors(RMSE)of 4.15 and 3.2,and inversion relative errors(δAve)of 22.08%and 17.55%,respectively.Therefore,the nonlinear inversion method outperforms the traditional multiple linear regression method,even in the presence of a systematic reduction in the nonlinear stress boundaries.

文摘We study the existence and stability of dark-gap solitons in linear lattice and nonlinear lattices.The results indicate that the combination of linear and nonlinear lattices gives dark-gap solitons unique properties.The linear lattice can stabilize dark-gap solitons,while the nonlinear lattice reduces the stability of dark-gap solitons.On the basis of numerical analysis,we investigate the effects of lattice depth,chemical potential,nonlinear lattice amplitude,and nonlinear lattice period on the soliton in mixed lattices with the same and different periods.The stability of dark-gap soliton is studied carefully by means of real-time evolution and linear stability analysis.Dark-gap solitons can exist stably in the band gap,but the solitons formed by the mixed lattices are slightly different when the period is the same or different.

文摘The hydroformylation of olefins,known as the"oxo reaction",involves the use of syngas(CO/H_(2))to produce aldehyde with an additional carbon atom.However,side reactions such as the isomerization or hydrogenation of olefins often result in unexpected products and other by-products.Recent efforts in developing efficient ligands represent the most effective approach to addressing these challenges.In this study,we described a Bis-OPNN phosphorus ligand facilitated Rh-catalyzed hydroformylation with a high degree of linear selectivity across various olefins.Under mild conditions,a broad range of olefins were efficiently converted into linear aldehydes with high yields and excellent regioselectivity.The protocol also showed impressive functional group tolerance and was successfully applied to modify drugs and natural products,including the total synthesis of(±)-crispine A.Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed that this Bis-OPNN phosphorus ligand anchoring the rhodium catalyst is crucial for controlling the linear selectivity.

文摘We have designed,assembled,and tested a 4-MA,60-ns fast linear transformer driver(LTD),which is the first operating generator featuring multiple LTD modules connected in parallel.The LTD-based accelerator comprises six modules in parallel,each of which has ten-stage cavities stacked in series.The six LTD modules are connected to a water tank of diameter 6 m via a 3-m-long impedance-matched deionized waterinsulated coaxial transmission line.In the water tank,the electrical pulses are transmitted down by six horizontal tri-plate transmission lines.A 2.1-m-diameter two-level vacuum insulator stack is utilized to separate the deionized water region from the vacuum region.In the vacuum,the currents are further transported downstream by a two-level magnetically insulated transmission-line and then converged through four post-hole convolutes.Plasma radiation loads or bremsstrahlung electron beam diodes serve as loads that are expected to generate intense soft X rays or warm X rays.The machine is 3.2 m in height and 22 m in outer diameter,including support systems such as a high-voltage charge supply,magnetic core reset system,trigger system,and support platform for inner stalk installation and maintenance.A total of 1440 individual±100-kV multi-gap spark switches and 2880 individual 100-kV capacitors are employed in the accelerator.A total of 12 fiberoptic laser-controlled trigger generators combining photoconductive and traditional gas spark switch technologies are used to realize the synchronous discharge of the more than 1000 gas switches.At an LTD charge voltage of±85 kV,the accelerator stores an initial energy of about 300 kJ and is expected to deliver a current of 3–5 MA into various loads.To date,the LTD facility has shot into a thick-walled aluminum liner load and a reflex triode load.With a thick-walled aluminum liner of inductance 1.81 nH,a current with peak up to 4.1 MA and rise time(10%–90%)of about 60 ns has been achieved.The current transport efficiency from the insulator stack to the liner load approaches 100%during peak times.The LTD accelerator has been used to drive reflex triode loads generating warm X rays with high energy fluence and large radiation area.It has been demonstrated that this LTD is a promising and high-efficiency prime pulsed power source suitable for use in constructing the next generation of large-scale accelerators with currents of tens of megaamperes.

文摘Polydopamine-based melanin-like materials have been widely used in the fields of ultraviolet(UV)shielding,solar desalination and anti-inflammatory treatment owing to their unique physical properties.The well-established synthesis of polydopamine nanoparticles involves the oxidative polymerization of dopamine-derived monomers,resulting in cross-linked nanostructures with high complexity and heterogeneity.Therefore,the controlled synthesis of polydopamine-based melanin-like materials with well-defined structures and predictable properties remains challenging.Herein,we propose a mechanochemical Suzuki polymerization approach for the synthesis of linear melanin-like polymers with tunable physical properties.Compared with polydopamine nanoparticles,the mechanochemical approach offers a more flexible chain-like structure,thereby enhancing its antioxidant performance.Furthermore,this approach also enables the preparation of a melanin-like alternating copolymer that exhibits green fluorescence owing to itsπ-conjugated structure.This study not only offers opportunities for exploring novel synthetic melanin materials,but also provides new insights into the structure-function relationships of polydopamine-based materials.

文摘Piecewise linear systems are prevalent in engineering practice,and can be categorized into symmetric and asymmetric piecewise linear systems.Considering that symmetry is a special case of asymmetry,it is essential to investigate the broader model,namely the asymmetric piecewise linear system.The traditional averaging method is frequently used for studying nonlinear systems,particularly symmetric piecewise linear systems,with the harmonic response of the oscillator serving as a key prerequisite for calculating steady-state solutions.However,asymmetric systems inherently exhibit nonharmonic,asymmetric responses,rendering the traditional averaging method inapplicable.To overcome this limitation,this paper introduces an improved averaging method tailored for an oscillator characterized by asymmetric gaps and springs.Unlike the traditional method,which assumes a purely harmonic response,the improved averaging method redefines the system response as a superposition of a direct current(DC)term and a first harmonic component.Herein,the DC term can be regarded as the offset induced by model asymmetry.Furthermore,the DC term is treated as a slow variable function of time,with its time derivative assumed to be zero when calculating the steady-state solution,akin to the amplitude and phase in the traditional averaging method.Numerical validation demonstrates that the responses computed in both time and frequency domains with the improved averaging method exhibit greater accuracy compared with those derived from the traditional method.Leveraging these improved results,the study also examines the parameter effect,stability,and bifurcation phenomena within the amplitude-frequency responses.
