Through an analytical shear-lag model and finite element simulations, it is demonstrated that applying tensile pre-strain to carbon fibers before electrode assembly effectively reduces the interfacial shear stress, thereby suppressing debonding. However, the excessive pre-strain can induce the interfacial damage in the unlithiated state, necessitating careful control of the pre-strain within a feasible range. This range is influenced by electrode material properties and geometric parameters. Specifically, the electrodes with the higher solid-state electrolyte elastic modulus and larger electrolyte volume fraction exhibit more significant interfacial damage, making pre-strain application increasingly critical. However, these conditions also impose stricter constraints on the feasible pre-strain range. By elucidating the interplay between pre-strain, material properties, and geometric factors, this study provides valuable insights for optimizing the design of carbon fiber SLIBs.展开更多

X-ray diffraction （XRD）, Auger electron spectroscopy （AES） sputter profiling, MCs^＋-mode secondary ion mass spectrometry （MCs^＋-SIMS） and atomic force microscopy （AFM） were employed, respectively, for the structural, com- positional and morphological characterization of the obtained films. For temperatures below 875 K, titanium films could not be fully oxidized within one hour. Above that temperature, the completely oxidized films were found to be rutile in structure. Detailed studies on the oxidation process at 925K were carried out for the understanding of the underlying mechanism of titanium dioxide （TiO2） formation by thermal oxidation. It was demonstrated that the formation of crystalline TiO2 could be divided into a short oxidation stage, followed by crystal forming stage. Relevance of this recognition was further discussed.展开更多

文摘Deployable Composite Thin-Walled Structures(DCTWS)are widely used in space applications due to their ability to compactly fold and self-deploy in orbit,enabled by cutouts.Cutout design is crucial for balancing structural rigidity and flexibility,ensuring material integrity during large deformations,and providing adequate load-bearing capacity and stability once deployed.Most research has focused on optimizing cutout size and shape,while topology optimization offers a broader design space.However,the anisotropic properties of woven composite laminates,complex failure criteria,and multi-performance optimization needs have limited the exploration of topology optimization in this field.This work derives the sensitivities of bending stiffness,critical buckling load,and the failure index of woven composite materials with respect to element density,and formulates both single-objective and multi-objective topology optimization models using a linear weighted aggregation approach.The developed method was integrated with the commercial finite element software ABAQUS via a Python script,allowing efficient application to cutout design in various DCTWS configurations to maximize bending stiffness and critical buckling load under material failure constraints.Optimization of a classical tubular hinge resulted in improvements of 107.7%in bending stiffness and 420.5%in critical buckling load compared to level-set topology optimization results reported in the literature,validating the effectiveness of the approach.To facilitate future research and encourage the broader adoption of topology optimization techniques in DCTWS design,the source code for this work is made publicly available via a Git Hub link:https://github.com/jinhao-ok1/Topo-for-DCTWS.git.

文摘In the present work,the porous Ti particle reinforced Mg-based bulk metallic glass matrix composites(BMGCs)have been successfully fabricated via a novel in-situ dealloying method in metallic melt.A dual reinforcing structure,including large-scale between porous particles and fine-scale inside one particle,was induced to further overcome the strength-plasticity tradeoff.The microstructure and mechanical properties of such dual-scale structure-reinforced BMGCs with various volume fractions and diameters of porous Ti particles were investigated in detail.It is found that with more and finer porous Ti particles,the BMGC showed both high fracture strength(1131.9±39.1 MPa)and good plastic deformability(1.48±0.38%).The characteristic of the reinforcing structure(0.48μm)inside the porous particles was close to the plastic processing zone size of the matrix(0.1~0.2μm),which generated a locally ideal reinforcing structure.Such dual-scale reinforcing structures with more interfaces can effectively promote the multiplication of shear bands at the interfaces.Due to the size effect,the refined submicron matrix between the Ti ligaments inside the porous particles should exhibit homogeneous shearing events.Such delocalization behavior from the dual-scale reinforcing structures should help to enhance the role of the interactions between shear bands,thus improving the yield strength of the composites.Based on the in-situ dealloying method,the dual-scale structure design provides a novel approach to fabricate various BMGCs with both high strength and good plasticity.

文摘Designing materials with both structural load-bearing capacity and broadband electromagnetic(EM)wave absorption properties remains a significant challenge.In this work,SiOC/SiC/SiO_(2)composite with gyroid structures were prepared through digital light processing(DLP)3D printing,polymer-derived ceramics(PDCs),chemical vapor infiltration(CVI),and oxidation technologies.The incorporation of the CVISiC phase effectively increases the dissipation capability,while the synergistic interaction between the gyroid structure and SiO_(2)phase significantly improves impedance matching performance.The SiOC/SiC/SiO_(2)composite achieved a minimum reflection loss(RL min)of-62.2 d B at 4.3 mm,and the effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)covered the X-band,with a thickness range of 4.1 mm-4.65 mm.The CST simulation results explain the broadband and low-frequency absorption characteristics,with an EAB of 8.4 GHz(9.6-18 GHz)and an RL min of-21.5 dB at 5 GHz.The excellent EM wave attenuation performance is associated primarily with polarization loss,conduction loss,the gyroid structure's enhancement of multiple reflections and scattering of EM waves,and the resonance effect between the structural units.The SiOC/SiC/SiO_(2)composite also demonstrated strong mechanical properties,with a maximum compressive failure strength of 31.6 MPa in the height direction.This work opens novel prospects for the development of multifunctional structural wave-absorbing materials suitable for broadband microwave absorption and load-bearing properties.
文摘The growing utilization of the ocean as a renewable energy source drives the need for reliable maritime infrastructure.One major challenge for these structures is withstanding impulsive loads from extreme ocean waves,which requires materials with high strength and deformation resistance to maintain structural integrity.Metal Matrix Composite(MMC)is a promising material,yet studies on its behavior under impulsive loading remain limited.This study investigates the ultimate capacity of MMC sandwich structures using the Finite Element Method(FEM)through simulations with an Underwater Shock Loading Simulator(USLS).Validation against the results of He et al.confirms the accuracy of the simulation method.Results indicate that increasing flyer velocity from 135 to 195 m/s raises the maximum displacement from 5.83 mm to 10.7 mm.Increasing face sheet thickness from 0.4 to 1.8 mm reduces deformation from 4.95 to 3.09 mm,while increasing core thickness from 14 to 20 mm decreases deflection from 5.42 to 3.68 mm.Furthermore,the thickness ratio analysis indicates that the 1:10 configuration produces the smallest deformation(4.13 mm)and is more efficient because it provides higher stiffness with lower mass.These findings demonstrate that optimizing core and face sheet thickness significantly enhances structural resistance to deformation.The study concludes that a balanced thickness configuration is key to improving the structural performance of MMC sandwiches,supporting the design of stronger and more sustainable materials for maritime structures in extreme environments.

文摘This study proposes a pre-strain optimization strategy for carbon fiber structural lithium-ion battery(SLIB) composites to inhibit the interfacial debonding between carbon fibers and solid-state electrolytes due to fiber lithiation. Through an analytical shear-lag model and finite element simulations, it is demonstrated that applying tensile pre-strain to carbon fibers before electrode assembly effectively reduces the interfacial shear stress, thereby suppressing debonding. However, the excessive pre-strain can induce the interfacial damage in the unlithiated state, necessitating careful control of the pre-strain within a feasible range. This range is influenced by electrode material properties and geometric parameters. Specifically, the electrodes with the higher solid-state electrolyte elastic modulus and larger electrolyte volume fraction exhibit more significant interfacial damage, making pre-strain application increasingly critical. However, these conditions also impose stricter constraints on the feasible pre-strain range. By elucidating the interplay between pre-strain, material properties, and geometric factors, this study provides valuable insights for optimizing the design of carbon fiber SLIBs.

文摘Fatigue damage is a primary contributor to the failure of composite structures,underscoring the critical importance of monitoring its progression to ensure structural safety.This paper introduces an innovative approach to fatigue damage monitoring in composite structures,leveraging a hybrid methodology that integrates the Whale Optimization Algorithm(WOA)-Backpropagation(BP)neural network with an ultrasonic guided wave feature selection algorithm.Initially,a network of piezoelectric ceramic sensors is employed to transmit and capture ultrasonic-guided waves,thereby establishing a signal space that correlates with the structural condition.Subsequently,the Relief-F algorithm is applied for signal feature extraction,culminating in the formation of a feature matrix.This matrix is then utilized to train the WOA-BP neural network,which optimizes the fatigue damage identification model globally.The proposed model’s efficacy in quantifying fatigue damage is tested against fatigue test datasets,with its performance benchmarked against the traditional BP neural network algorithm.The findings demonstrate that the WOA-BP neural network model not only surpasses the BP model in predictive accuracy but also exhibits enhanced global search capabilities.The effect of different sensor-receiver path signals on the model damage recognition results is also discussed.The results of the discussion found that the path directly through the damaged area is more accurate in modeling damage recognition compared to the path signals away from the damaged area.Consequently,the proposed monitoring method in the fatigue test dataset is adept at accurately tracking and recognizing the progression of fatigue damage.

文摘The optimization of turbine blades is crucial in improving the efficiency of wind energy systems and developing clean energy production models.This paper presented a novel approach to the structural design of smallscale turbine blades using the Artificial Bee Colony(ABC)Algorithm based on the stochastic method to optimize both mass and cost(objective functions).The study used computational fluid dynamics(CFD)and structural analysis to consider the fluid-structure interaction.The optimization algorithm defined several variables:structural constraints,the type of composite material,and the number of composite layers to form a mathematical model.The numerical modeling was performed using the Ansys Fluent software and its Fluid-Structure Interaction(FSI)module.The ANSYS Composite PrePost(ACP)advanced composite modeling method was utilized in the structural design of composite materials.This study showed that the structurally optimized small-scale turbine blades provided a sustainable solution with improved efficiency compared to traditional designs.Furthermore,using CFD,structural analysis,and material characterization techniques first considered in this study highlights the importance of considering structural behavior when optimizing turbine blade designs.

文摘The Bayan Har block,one of China's most seismically active regions,has experienced multiple major earthquakes(≥M 7.0)in recent years.It is a key area for investigating the interactions between the Qinghai-Xizang(Qingzang)Plateau and adjacent blocks,plateau uplift,and strong earthquake mechanisms.P-wave velocity and crustal composition provide key constraints on the properties of distinct tectonic units and their evolutionary modification processes.Based on the results of 8 Deep Seismic Sounding(DSS)profiles completed in the Bayan Har block and surrounding areas over the past 20 years,We constructed one-dimensional P-wave velocity models for the crust of Bayan Har block,Qilian fold belt,Qinling fold belt,Alxa block,Ordos block and Sichuan basin.Furthermore,crustal composition models for different tectonic units were established based on these results.The results reveal that the crustal thickness of the Bayan Har block gradually decreases towards the NNE,NE,and SE directions,while the average crustal velocity increases correspondingly.The felsic layer in the crust accounts for more than half of the total crustal thickness.The mafic content within the crust of different tectonic units exhibits notable variations,which may reflect that the Bayan Har block,Qilian fold belt,and Qinling fold belt have experienced more intensive lithospheric evolution processes compared to Ordos basin and Sichuan basin.The seismicity distribution in this region is significantly controlled by crustal velocity and composition heterogeneity across the Bayan Har block and adjacent areas,which demonstrates that earthquakes within and around the Bayan Har block exhibit both high frequency and larger magnitudes.These seismic characteristics primarily result from intense crustal stress accumulation and release during the outward expansion of the Qingzang Plateau.
文摘Fasiakhali Wildlife Sanctuary is a protected area composed of tropical remnant rainforest that harbor substantial number of large,old Garjan（Dipterocarpus spp.）trees.The present study assessed composition,structure and diversity of the species in this protected area.A total of 32 trees species were recorded with DBH ≥ 11 cm belonging to 24 genera and 19 families.The forest is low in plant diversity as represented by Shannon–Wiener diversity and Simpson Dominance indices.Dipterocarpus turbinatus was the most dominant species with maximum relative density,frequency,dominance,and importance value index.Syzygium firmum and Tectona grandis followed in terms of dominance.The structural composition indicated higher number of individuals in the medium growth classes（41 to 〈 511 cm DBH and 16–20 m height ranges）,whereas D.turbinatus was the only species that dominated most of the growth classes.Poor stem density in lower growth classes indicated meager recruitment of regeneration which may be due to lower annual precipitation,increased grazing and encroachments.This study will help to understand the patterns of tree species composition and diversity in the remnant dipterocarp forests of Bangladesh.It will also contribute to identifying threatened plants to undertake D.turbinatus based conservation and sustainable management of the Fasiakhali Wildlife Sanctuary.
文摘In the fabrication and monitoring of parts in composite structures,which are being used more and more in a variety of engineering applications,the prediction and fatigue failure detection in composite materials is a difficult problem.This difficulty arises from several factors,such as the lack of a comprehensive investigation of the fatigue failure phenomena,the lack of a well-defined fatigue damage theory used for fatigue damage prediction,and the inhomogeneity of composites because of their multiple internal borders.This study investigates the fatigue behavior of carbon fiber reinforced with epoxy(CFRE)laminated composite plates under spectrum loading utilizing a uniqueDeep LearningNetwork consisting of a convolutional neural network(CNN).Themethod includes establishing Finite Element Model(FEM)in a plate model under a spectrum fatigue loading.Then,a CNN is trained for fatigue behavior prediction.The training phase produces promising results,showing the model’s performance with 94.21%accuracy,92.63%regression,and 91.55%F-score.To evaluate the model’s reliability,a comparison is made between fatigue data from the CNN and the FEM.It was found that the error band for this comparison is less than 0.3878MPa,affirming the accuracy and reliability of the proposed technique.The proposed method results converge with available experimental results in the literature,thus,the study suggests the broad applicability of this method to other different composite structures.

文摘To mitigate secondary electromagnetic pollution,there is an urgent need to develop absorption-dominant electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding materials with low density,reduced thickness,lightweight construction,flexibility,exceptional mechanical strength,and superior electrothermal and photothermal properties,particularly for flexible and wearable electronics.In this regard,we designed an absorption-based composite film comprising carbon nanotubes(CNT)and α-Fe_(2)O_(3),featuring a CNT layer sandwiched between twoα-Fe_(2)O_(3)layers on the upper and lower surfaces.This composite film was fabricated through an electrodeposition process followed by a thermal annealing procedure to achieve enhanced EMI shielding performance along with improved electrothermal and photothermal properties.The strategically designed sandwich structure allows the rough surface of the upper α-Fe_(2)O_(3)layer to not only improve the impedance mismatch between free space and the composite film,facilitating the penetration of incident electromagnetic(EM)waves into the film and promoting increased EM absorption rather than reflection,but also to enhance electrical conductivity,thereby improving electron mobility and density.Consequently,the average total shielding effectiveness(SE)of the CNT/Fe_(16)-300 composite demonstrates remarkable EMI shielding effectiveness(EMI SE:56.8 dB).Furthermore,the alteration in the absorption-to-reflection ratio(A/R)signifies a transition in the EMI shielding mechanism from reflection(0.69 for the pristine CNT film)to absorption(1.86 for the CNT/Fe_(16)-300)with the incremental deposition of α-Fe_(2)O_(3)nanoparticles.This work presents a feasible manufacturing approach for developing composite films with a sandwich structure that exhibits absorption-dominant EMI shielding capabilities,contributing to advancements in thermal management and multifunctional electromagnetic shielding applications.

文摘Titanium oxide films were prepared by annealing DC magnetron sputtered titanium films in an oxygen ambient. X-ray diffraction （XRD）, Auger electron spectroscopy （AES） sputter profiling, MCs^＋-mode secondary ion mass spectrometry （MCs^＋-SIMS） and atomic force microscopy （AFM） were employed, respectively, for the structural, com- positional and morphological characterization of the obtained films. For temperatures below 875 K, titanium films could not be fully oxidized within one hour. Above that temperature, the completely oxidized films were found to be rutile in structure. Detailed studies on the oxidation process at 925K were carried out for the understanding of the underlying mechanism of titanium dioxide （TiO2） formation by thermal oxidation. It was demonstrated that the formation of crystalline TiO2 could be divided into a short oxidation stage, followed by crystal forming stage. Relevance of this recognition was further discussed.
文摘Ferrimagnetic materials such as natural magnetite are used for practical applications because of their electronic, magnetic and catalytic properties in the degradation of organic compounds. In order to determine its physicochemical properties in relation to its catalytic activity, the natural magnetite of Ofoud Mount (Niger) is characterized by X-ray florescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (DRX), specific surface area (BET) and Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR).

The crystal structure of magnetite is cubic with lattice parameters <i>α</i> = <i>β</i> = <i>γ</i> = 90°, a (Å) = b (Å) = c (Å) = 8.3740. The results of this study suggest that the natural magnetite of Ofoud Mount can be used as iron source in various fields of science despite the presence of a few impurities that can improve its catalytic activity.
