Especially in recent years, with the rapid development of composite additive manufacturing technology, the design optimization of variable stiffness of fiber-reinforced composite laminates has attracted widespread attention from scholars and industry. In these aerospace composite structures, numerous cutout panels and shells serve as access points for maintaining electrical, fuel, and hydraulic systems. The traditional fiber-reinforced composite laminate subtractive drilling manufacturing inevitably faces the problems of interlayer delamination, fiber fracture, and burr of the laminate. Continuous fiber additive manufacturing technology offers the potential for integrated design optimization and manufacturing with high structural performance. Considering the integration of design and manufacturability in continuous fiber additive manufacturing, the paper proposes linear and nonlinear filtering strategies based on the Normal Distribution Fiber Optimization (NDFO) material interpolation scheme to overcome the challenge of discrete fiber optimization results, which are difficult to apply directly to continuous fiber additive manufacturing. With minimizing structural compliance as the objective function, the proposed approach provides a strategy to achieve continuity of discrete fiber paths in the variable stiffness design optimization of composite laminates with regular and irregular holes. In the variable stiffness design optimization model, the number of candidate fiber laying angles in the NDFO material interpolation scheme is considered as design variable. The sensitivity information of structural compliance with respect to the number of candidate fiber laying angles is obtained using the analytical sensitivity analysis method. Based on the proposed variable stiffness design optimization method for complex perforated composite laminates, the numerical examples consider the variable stiffness design optimization of typical non-perforated and perforated composite laminates with circular, square, and irregular holes, and systematically discuss the number of candidate discrete fiber laying angles, discrete fiber continuous filtering strategies, and filter radius on structural compliance, continuity, and manufacturability. The optimized discrete fiber angles of variable stiffness laminates are converted into continuous fiber laying paths using a streamlined process for continuous fiber additive manufacturing. Meanwhile, the optimized non-perforated and perforated MBB beams after discrete fiber continuous treatment, are manufactured using continuous fiber co-extrusion additive manufacturing technology to verify the effectiveness of the variable stiffness fiber optimization framework proposed in this paper.展开更多

文摘Fiber-reinforced composites are an ideal material for the lightweight design of aerospace structures. Especially in recent years, with the rapid development of composite additive manufacturing technology, the design optimization of variable stiffness of fiber-reinforced composite laminates has attracted widespread attention from scholars and industry. In these aerospace composite structures, numerous cutout panels and shells serve as access points for maintaining electrical, fuel, and hydraulic systems. The traditional fiber-reinforced composite laminate subtractive drilling manufacturing inevitably faces the problems of interlayer delamination, fiber fracture, and burr of the laminate. Continuous fiber additive manufacturing technology offers the potential for integrated design optimization and manufacturing with high structural performance. Considering the integration of design and manufacturability in continuous fiber additive manufacturing, the paper proposes linear and nonlinear filtering strategies based on the Normal Distribution Fiber Optimization (NDFO) material interpolation scheme to overcome the challenge of discrete fiber optimization results, which are difficult to apply directly to continuous fiber additive manufacturing. With minimizing structural compliance as the objective function, the proposed approach provides a strategy to achieve continuity of discrete fiber paths in the variable stiffness design optimization of composite laminates with regular and irregular holes. In the variable stiffness design optimization model, the number of candidate fiber laying angles in the NDFO material interpolation scheme is considered as design variable. The sensitivity information of structural compliance with respect to the number of candidate fiber laying angles is obtained using the analytical sensitivity analysis method. Based on the proposed variable stiffness design optimization method for complex perforated composite laminates, the numerical examples consider the variable stiffness design optimization of typical non-perforated and perforated composite laminates with circular, square, and irregular holes, and systematically discuss the number of candidate discrete fiber laying angles, discrete fiber continuous filtering strategies, and filter radius on structural compliance, continuity, and manufacturability. The optimized discrete fiber angles of variable stiffness laminates are converted into continuous fiber laying paths using a streamlined process for continuous fiber additive manufacturing. Meanwhile, the optimized non-perforated and perforated MBB beams after discrete fiber continuous treatment, are manufactured using continuous fiber co-extrusion additive manufacturing technology to verify the effectiveness of the variable stiffness fiber optimization framework proposed in this paper.

文摘Continuity is the foremost defining characteristic of Chinese civilization.It ensures that the evolution of this civilization respects the fine traditions and stays on the right course throughout its creative course.Meanwhile,creativity imparts ceaseless vitality to this civilization,serving as the intrinsic propulsive force that fuels its evolution.The rise of Song Studies marks one of the symbolic events in the transformation in the Chinese ideological and cultural realm.It encapsulates the dialectical unity between continuity and creativity that characterizes Chinese civilization.Song Studies adhere to the traditional classic interpretations,center the core values around“benevolence,”and pursue the way of sages,which reflect the continuity of Chinese civilization.They also embody creativity.This is manifested in the emergence of a new academic spirit that emphasizes the seeking of truth and reason,a new academic ethos that involves questioning classics in the process of their dissemination and interpreting them with one’s own insight,as well as the fusion of philosophical speculation with social practice.Conducting an integrated analysis of the defining characteristics of Chinese civilization and the rise of Song Studies helps us gain a thorough understanding of the dialectical unity between the continuity and creativity of Chinese civilization through the interactions between history and reality.It also enables us to effectively address the relationship between inheritance and transformation,as well as between maintaining core values and pursuing creativity throughout its ongoing development.
文摘BACKGROUND Gastric cancer predominantly affects the elderly,who face significant challenges due to high postoperative complications and stress.These challenges include co-morbidities,reduced physiological reserves,and increased risks of infections and delayed healing.Traditional postoperative care often falls short in addressing these issues effectively.Enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)principles have revolutionized surgical care by reducing stress and promoting recovery through a holistic approach.ERAS emphasizes preoperative optimization,intraoperative care,and postoperative rehabilitation tailored to patient needs.Despite its recog-nized benefits,the impact of continuity nursing care within the ERAS framework on elderly gastric cancer patients remains underexplored.This study examines the influence of ERAS-based continuity nursing care on postoperative satisfaction,inflammation,stress,and quality of life in elderly patients undergoing gastric cancer resection.AIM To investigate the effects of ERAS-based continuity nursing care on postoperative satisfaction,inflammation,stress,and quality of life in elderly gastric cancer pa-tients.METHODS A retrospective cohort analysis was conducted on 322 elderly patients who under-went gastric cancer resection between January 2020 and January 2022.Patients were assigned to a routine care group(n=156)or an ERAS-control(ERAS-C)group(n=166).Data collected included demographic information,inflammatory and stress markers,satisfaction scores using the patient satisfaction questionnaire-18,and quality of life measured using the European Organi-zation for Research and Treatment of Cancer 22-item quality of life questionnaire specific to gastric cancer.RESULTS The ERAS-C group exhibited significantly lower postoperative interleukin-6 levels than the routine care group(12.97±4.02 pg/mL vs 14.37±3.86 pg/mL;P=0.002).This finding indicates that the ERAS-C group experienced reduced inflammation.The ERAS-C group also had a higher cluster of differentiation(CD)4:CD8 ratio than the routine care group(2.34±0.35 vs 2.13±0.61;P<0.001),suggesting the former’s enhanced immune response.Postoperative stress markers,including norepinephrine,cortisol,and aldosterone,were significantly lower in the ERAS-C group than in the routine care group(P<0.05 for all).Compared with the routine care group,the ERAS-C group showed increased nursing satisfaction scores(80.36±7.24 vs 75.23±7.03;P<0.001)and improved quality of life indicators,such as reduced dysphagia and pain,(P<0.05).The ERAS-C group also experienced fewer complic-ations than the routine care group(5.42%vs 11.54%,P=0.048).CONCLUSION Continuity nursing care within the ERAS framework significantly enhances postoperative outcomes for elderly gastric cancer patients by reducing inflammation,stress,and complications while improving satisfaction and qua-lity of life.

文摘BACKGROUND Children with critical acute abdominal conditions often undergo intestinal stoma surgery.AIM To explore the impact of a visual mobile terminal-based extended care model on caregiver competence for children with enterostomies.METHODS One hundred twenty children with enterostomies and their caregivers in a children's hospital in Beijing were divided into a control group and a study group.The control group(60 cases)received traditional telephone follow-up for continuity of care,while the study group(60 cases)used a visualization mobile terminal-based care model.The incidence of stoma-related complications,caregiver burden scale,and competence scores of children with stoma were compared between the two groups.RESULTS The primary caregiver burden score in the study group(37.22±3.17)was significantly lower than that in the control group(80.00±4.47),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Additionally,the caregiving ability score of the study group(172.08±3.49)was significantly higher than that of the control group(117.55±4.28;P<0.05).The total incidence of complications in the study group(11.7%,7/60)was significantly lower compared to the control group(33.3%,20/60;χ2=8.086,P=0.004).CONCLUSION The visual mobile terminal-based care model reduces caregiver burden,improves home care ability,lowers the incidence of complications and readmission rates,and supports successful second-stage reduction surgery for children with enterostomies.
文摘Hematopoietic cell transplantation(HCT)is the curative cornerstone for a wide spectrum of high-risk hematological malignancies and selected non-malignant disorders(1).As indications expand and survival improves,HCT survivors increasingly face chronic complications,psychosocial distress,and long-term quality-of-life impairments that demand continuous,multidisciplinary management(2,3).However,the rapid evolution of transplantation contrasts sharply with the lag in specialized nursing capacity,credentialing,and governance systems in China.This commentary integrates national policy directives,recent workforce data,and clinical experience to examine current deficits,highlights the clinical value of nurse-led continuity-of-care,and proposes a sustainable framework for hematology specialist nurse-driven HCT care.

文摘The snapshot Fault Detection(FD)algorithm of Advanced Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring(ARAIM)necessitates the allocation of continuity and integrity risk requirements from the operational exposure time level to the single epoch level.Current studies primarily focus on finding a conservative Number of Effective Samples(NES)as a risk mapping factor.However,considering that the NES varies with the observation environment and the type of the fault mode,applying a fixed NES can constrain the performance of the algorithm.To address this issue,the continuity and integrity risks over the operational exposure time are analyzed and bounded based on all epochs within the exposure time.A more adaptable method for continuity and integrity budget allocation over the operational exposure time is presented,capable of monitoring the continuity and integrity risks over the recent operational exposure time in real time,and dynamically adjusting the allocation values based on the current observation environment.Simulation results demonstrate that,compared with the allocation method based on a fixed NES,ARAIM based on the proposed allocation method exhibits superior performance in terms of the availability.At an FD execution frequency equal to the required Time-To-Alert(TTA),the dual-constellation H-ARAIM provides 100%of the global coverage with 99.5%availability of the RNP 0.1 service,and the dual-constellation V-ARAIM provides 86.38%of the global coverage with 99.5%availability of the LPV-200 service.
文摘This study investigated the effects of xu-argument-based continuation writing on learners’processing of source texts.Seventy-five participants were randomly assigned to three conditions:(1)continuation writing,(2)summary writing,or(3)reading comprehension.Eye-tracking data were collected during reading,measuring early(first fixation duration,first pass duration)and late(go-past time,total fixation duration)eye movements.During writing,source-text rereading was tracked via fixation counts and durations.Results showed that task type did not affect initial lexical access,as first fixation duration showed no group differences.However,both production groups exhibited significantly longer first pass durations than the reading comprehension group.Late measures revealed a gradient pattern:the continuation writing group spent significantly longer gopast time and total fixation duration than the summary writing group,which exceeded the reading comprehension group.This indicates that continuation tasks promoted deeper cognitive engagement during reading.During writing,the continuation writing group spent more time rereading the source text with higher fixation counts than the summary writing group.These findings suggest that continuation writing triggers more intensive reader-text interaction during pre-writing and enhances comprehension-production coupling through sustained attention to input during writing.This study sheds light on the cognitive mechanisms underlying the theoretical and pedagogical value of xu-argument.
文摘This study examines the reliability and validity of AI-generated scoring for continuation writing tasks.By comparing GPT-4 with eight experienced human raters across 21 student responses,it evaluates AI’s consistency,severity,and alignment with human scoring criteria.Results show that AI exhibits high self-consistency and adapts effectively to different scoring roles(e.g.,teacher vs.highstakes rater).However,AI scores were more lenient than human raters and demonstrated divergent evaluation focuses—prioritizing narrative coherence and emotional depth,while teachers emphasized linguistic accuracy and richness of detail.The findings suggest AI’s potential as a supplementary assessment tool,offering rapid,holistic feedback,but highlight the need for further calibration to align with educational standards.Implications include exploring hybrid evaluation models that leverage the strengths of both AI and human raters to achieve more equitable,efficient,and pedagogically meaningful writing assessments.
文摘Rhetorical devices are a kind of language expression often seen in articles.With the development of the new era,the requirements for listening,speaking,reading and writing in today's English education are gradually increasing,and the requirements for writing are also getting higher and higher.In the English curriculum standards for senior high schools(2017 edition),the Ministry of Education also further improved the requirements of high school students'listening,speaking,reading and writing skills.In high school English textbooks,each unit of the article often contains a variety of rhetorical devices,but high school students cannot skillfully use rhetorical devices in the continuation writing.Therefore,it is necessary to explore the use of rhetorical devices in post reading continuation.This paper analyzes the application of rhetorical devices in the continuation of high school reading.Using the output oriented teaching method in teaching to help students understand and apply.The purpose is to let high school students understand the embodiment of rhetorical devices in English articles;Be able to master and skillfully use rhetorical devices in the continuation writing.This paper decides to explore and study rhetorical sentence patterns to help students increase their ability to write English and improve their appreciation of the beauty of the English language.

文摘Local resonant acoustic metamaterials have broad applications in sound insulation,yet their single-configuration designs often exhibit limited and discontinuous bandgap widths,hindering full-frequency noise attenuation across the human auditory range.This study presents a double-phase fidget-spinner-shaped acoustic metamaterial(DFAM),specifically designed to achieve an ultra-broad,low-frequency continuous bandgap by means of synergistic structural optimization,enabling effective and robust control of audible noise.Based on Bloch's theorem and the finite element method,the dispersion relation of the DFAM structure is calculated and verified by the transmission loss curves.The propagation characteristics of sound waves within the structure are further analyzed for noise frequencies that fall within the passband.The influence of the geometric and physical parameters on the bandgap is investigated,and the corresponding transmission loss in the propagation direction is further calculated.A hybrid collaborative design strategy,leveraging multi-parameter optimization and bandgap complementarity,is developed to construct a metastructure with continuous bandgap coverage from 20 Hz to 1000 Hz.The resulting metastructure demonstrates exceptional broadband noise attenuation,achieving a total bandgap width of 876.3 Hz(87.63% of the target range)with the transmission loss up to-762.78 d B in a three-periodic arrangement.The simulation and experimental results for the transmission loss of the DFAM metastructure show strong agreement in the low-frequency range.This work provides a novel framework for designing ultra-wide low-frequency continuous bandgap metastructures,offering significant potential for noise mitigation in complex environments.
文摘This study integrates explicit input enhancement into comparative continuation writing,defined as a task in which learners produce a continuation by comparing their own expression with an input text,aligning with its discourse structure and linguistic features,while developing their own ideas.It aims to examine whether English as a Foreign Language(EFL)learners in China exhibit differences in discourse competence and writing performance when completing comparative continuation writing combined with different input enhancement techniques,and whether the alignment effect occurs at the discourse level.Sixty first-year Chinese senior middle school students were divided into four groups:three groups engaged in comparative continuation writing with varying input enhancement,achieved by combining different techniques,while a control group performed a designated-topic writing task.The results revealed that three comparative continuation writing groups outperformed the designated-topic writing group in discourse competence,particularly in the use of temporal connectives.However,differences and some inconsistencies were observed among the comparative continuation writing groups across individual indices.The study highlights effective ways to incorporate comparative continuation writing into English instruction and demonstrates how explicit input enhancement can complement the task,simultaneously activating the alignment effect proposed by the xu-argument and enhancing discourse competence in writing.

文摘We report an immobilized enzyme-catalyzed batch and continuous-flow synthesis of optically pure ethyl(R)-pantothenate((R)-PaOEt),the direct precursor of d-pantothenic acid.Firstly,a ketoreductase mutant designated as M2,carrying two-point mutations of F97L and M242F relative to the wild-type SSCR,was constructed by site-directed mutagenesis,exhibited simultaneously improved activity toward ethyl 2′-ketopantothenate(K-PaOEt)and isopropanol,and could effectively catalyze the stereoselective reduction of K-PaOEt to(R)-PaOEt by using isopropanol as the sacrificial co-substrate to regenerate NADPH.After screening six commercially available carriers,an amino resin LXTE-700 was identified as the best solid support for the immobilization of M2 via the glutaraldehyde activation method.Upon optimization of the immobilization process and reaction conditions,the fabricated immobilized enzyme M2@amino resin demonstrated excellent recyclability and reusability,with the complete conversion of K-PaOEt to(R)-PaOEt being still realized after 12 cycles of reuse.Finally,M2@amino resin-catalyzed synthesis of(R)-PaOEt was successfully implemented in continuous-flow,accomplishing a 6.3 times higher space-time yield than that with the batch synthesis(529.2 versus 84 g L^(-1) d^(-1)).Our developed flow biocatalysis system also features an outstanding operational stability,as evidenced by the 100%conversion rate achieved after 15 consecutive days of operation.
文摘The iterative continuation task(ICT)requires English as a foreign language(EFL)learners to read a segment and write a continuation that aligns with the preceding segment of an English novel with successive turns,offering exposure to diverse grammatical structures and opportunities for contextualized usage.Given the importance of integrating technology into second language(L2)writing and the critical role that grammar plays in L2 writing development,automated written corrective feedback provided by Grammarly has gained significant attention.This study investigates the impact of Grammarly on grammar learning strategies,grammar grit,and grammar competence among EFL college students engaged in ICT.This study employed a mixed-methods sequential exploratory design;56 participants were divided into an experimental group(n=28),receiving Grammarly feedback for ICT,and a control group(n=28),completing ICT without Grammarly feedback.Quantitative results revealed that both groups showed improvements in L2 grammar learning strategies,grit and competence.For the experimental group,significant differences were observed across all variables of L2 grammar learning strategies,grit,and competence between pre-and post-tests.For the control group,significant differences were only observed in the affective dimension of grammar learning strategies,Consistency of Interest(COI)of grammar grit,and grammar competence.However,the control group presented a significantly higher improvement in grammar competence.Qualitative analysis showed both positive and negative perceptions of Grammarly.The pedagogical implications of integrating Grammarly and ICT for L2 grammar development are discussed.

文摘The rapid decay of the surface wettability of plasma-treated polymers remains a critical limitation for their practical application in advanced materials.This study introduces a continuous atmospheric pressure plasma(APP)technique for fabricating polyethylene(PE)separators with durable wettability,and elucidates the underlying mechanism.A systematic comparison of APP treatments with non-deposition and deposition gases,including Ar,Ar/O_(2),Ar/tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane(TMCTS),and Ar/O_(2)/TMCTS,revealed the key impact factors in achieving durable wettability.Owing to the synergistic interactions of SiO_(x)C_(y)H_(z)nanoparticulate deposition,physical etching,and oxidative functionalization,the PE separator treated by Ar/O_(2)/TMCTS exhibited a 17.5-fold electrolyte wetting area compared to the original one.The improved surface energy and roughness of the SiO_(x)C_(y)H_(z)nanoparticle coating enhanced its electrochemical performance.The ionic conductivity increased by 1.9 times,while the charge transfer resistance decreased by 73.7%.Remarkably,owing to further oxidation of the SiO_(x)C_(y)H_(z)nanoparticle coating and the increase in its silica-like structure,the wetting area of the Ar/O_(2)/TMCTS-treated separator was still over 14-fold larger than that of the original separator after aging for 90 days.This study demonstrates an eco-friendly and scalable approach for fabricating high-performance battery separators and provides mechanistic insights into durable wettability by APP.
文摘This study investigated the impact of the xu-argument-based continuation on Chinese high school students’English syntactic complexity captured using verb-argument constructions(VACs)over an 8-week period.Participants were two comparable groups of students:one group worked with English input texts(i.e.,E-E),while the other worked with Chinese input texts with the same content(i.e.,C-E).The results showed that over time,the E-E group exhibited a greater tendency to use a wider range of VACs,such as caused-motion constructions,attributives,passives,and phrasal verbs.At the same time,they reduced their use of simpler VACs like intransitive-motion and simple transitive constructions,especially when compared to the C-E group.This pattern was also evident in the topic-based writing during the posttest.These findings strongly support the effectiveness of xu-argument-based continuation tasks in promoting the development of L2 VAC knowledge.They suggest that tasks combining language input with output can significantly enhance learners’ability to use more sophisticated VACs.

文摘Autonomous truck platooning,as a novel transportationmode,has attracted significant attention due to its potential to improve transportation efficiency,reduce energy consumption,and lower operational costs.However,this emerging mode poses new challenges to the dynamic performance of long-span bridges.This study aims to investigate the impact of autonomous truck platoons on the dynamic performance of continuous beam bridges.Using finite element software to construct accurate vehicle-bridge interaction models,we simulated the dynamic response between vehicle platoons and bridge structures.The study systematically evaluated the effects of four key factors—vehicle speed,number of formations,vehicle spacing,and vehicle weight—on mid-span deformation and the dynamic amplification factor of bridges.Taking a long-span continuous beam bridge as the research object and employing orthogonal experimental designmethods,we efficiently explored themulti-factor interactive effects on bridge dynamic response.Research results indicate that vehicle speed is the dominant factor affecting the bridge dynamic coefficient,showing a significant positive correlation.The interaction between vehicle spacing and the number of formations has a substantial impact on the dynamic coefficient,particularly under conditions of high-speed operation,large-scale formations,tight vehicle spacing,and heavy-load multi-factor coupling.These conditions can significantly increase mid-span bridge deformation and the dynamic coefficient,potentially exceeding design live-load standard value in specific scenarios.Based on the experimental results,this study recommends that truck formations strictly control vehicle speed during operation,maintain appropriate vehicle spacing,limit the number of formations,and regulate loading conditions to ensure normal bridge operation and long-termdurability.The research findings provide scientific guidance for optimizing truck formation strategies and ensuring bridge safety.

文摘The transient phenomena of re-oxidation and slag entrapment occurring in the tundish during the ladle change-over process have been proven detrimental to clean steel production.Therefore,an unsteady three-phase turbulence model,coupling velocity,temperature,and phase field was established to study the effect of the ladle shroud immersion depth on the slag eye formation,slag entrainment,slag dragging,air dragging,and flow characteristics during the ladle change-over process of a two-strand tundish.The results showed that reducing the immersion depth decreases the high-velocity region area under the slag layer in the quasi-steady process.During the emptying stage,as the molten bath level gradually decreases,the outlet temperature exhibits a trend of initially decreasing and subsequently increasing across all three shroud immersion depths.However,under a 210 mm shroud immersion depth,molten slag and air are dragged into the shroud,forming slag droplets and causing significant fluctuations,with a maximum scalar velocity of 0.0764 m/s at the monitoring point.In the filling stage,air and molten slag are dragged into the molten bath,forming bubbles and slag droplets at an immersion depth of 210 mm.Bubbles are observed within the molten slag layer,which can readily cause an emulsification phenomenon,making it easier to be dragged as slag droplets.Additionally,the slag eye area measured under 210 mm immersion depth at 45 s is 0.303 m^(2),while the maximum scalar velocity of 2.4259 m/s is detected at 12 s.At an immersion depth of 360 mm,the average area of the slag eye is minimized to 0.06268 m2,with corresponding variances of 0.006753,representing the optimal immersion depth.

文摘A full-sectional microstructure characterization method was developed to investigate the formation of coarse slag rims during the continuous casting of hypo-peritectic steel.The cross-sectional microstructural analysis of typical slag rims for two highly crystalline powders revealed that their formation was primarily driven by the solidification of the liquid slag.Distinct differences were observed in the microstructures of slag rims from the two powders.Powder A(characterized by a higher breaking temperature and viscosity)displayed alternating lamellar microstructures of coarse and fine phases,with the coarse phases composed of akermanite-gehlenite transition phases.In contrast,powder B(with a lower breaking temperature and viscosity)predominantly comprised regular akermanite-gehlenite crystals interspersed with a certain amount of glassy phases.Numerical simulations of a three-phase fluid flow coupled with heat transfer indicate that slag rim formation correlates with mold oscillation.Solidification of the liquid slag at the slag rim front predominantly occurs during the negative stroke of the mold oscillation.The average heating rate during the ascending stage of the mold reaches approximately 100 K·s^(−1),whereas the average cooling rate during the descending stage attains 400 K·s^(−1).This temperature variation leads to the formation of lamellar microstructures,whereas the ascending stage promotes the formation of coarse structures and thicker slag rims.Based on the powder properties,two distinct formation pathways exist for highly crystalline mold powders.For the powders with a higher breaking temperature,higher viscosity,and narrower solidification range(powder A),coarse microstructures and thicker slag rims were preferentially formed.For powders with lower breaking temperature and viscosity and wider solidification ranges(powder B),the liquid slag resisted rapid solidification,and the extended mushy zone allowed the partial liquid slag to persist at the slag rim front,promoting the formation of a thin slag rim.This study enhances the understanding of slag rim formation in highly crystalline mold powders and provides critical insights into the control of longitudinal surface cracks in hypo-peritectic steel.
