Trace Tb element doping can simultaneously improve the magnetostriction and ductility of Fe–Ga alloy. However, the im-pact of trace Tb doping on the microstructure and magnetostriction of Fe–Ga thin sheets is an open question. In this paper, the effects oftrace Tb addition on the secondary recrystallization and magnetostriction of Fe–Ga thin sheets are systematically studied by comparing thecharacteristics evolution of precipitation, texture, and nanoinclusions. The results indicate that trace Tb addition accelerates the secondaryrecrystallization of Goss texture due to the combined action of the bimodal size distributed precipitates, smaller grains, and more HEGBsin primary recrystallization. After quenching at 900℃, the magnetostriction value in 0.07 at %Tb-doped Fe_(81)Ga_(19) thin sheets increases by 30% to that of Fe_(81)Ga_(19) thin sheets. The increase in magnetostriction is attributed to the decrease in the number of Tb-rich precipitates andthe higher density of the nanometer-sized modified-D0_(3) inclusions induced by the dissolving of trace Tb elements after quenching. Theseresults demonstrate a simple and efficient approach for preparing Fe–Ga thin sheets with a large magnetostrictive coefficient by a combin-ation of trace RE element addition and conventional rolling method.展开更多

文摘The formation of an embedded electron current sheet within the magnetotail plasma sheet has been poorly understood.In this article,we present an electron current layer detected at the edge of the magnetotail plasma sheet.The ions were demagnetized inside the electron current layer,but the electrons were still frozen in with the magnetic field line.Thus,this decoupling of ions and electrons gave rise to a strong Hall electric field,which could be the reason for the formation of the embedded thin current layer.The magnetized electrons,the absence of the nongyrotropic electron distribution,and negligible energy dissipation in the layer indicate that magnetic reconnection had not been triggered within the embedded thin current layer.The highly asymmetric plasma on the two sides of the current layer and low magnetic shear across it could suppress magnetic reconnection.The observations indicate that the embedded electric current layer,probably generated by the Hall electric field,even down to electron scale,is not a sufficient condition for magnetic reconnection.

文摘A novel substrate integrated microstrip to ultra-thin cavity filter transition operating in the W-band is proposed in this letter.The structure is a new method of connecting microstrip circuits and waveguide filters,and this new structure enables a planar integrated transition from microstrip lines to ultra-thin cavity filters,thereby reducing the size of the transition structure and achieving miniaturization.The structure includes a conventional tapered microstrip transition structure,which guides the electromagnetic field from the microstrip line to the reduced-height dielectric-filled waveguide,and an air-filled matching cavity which is placed between the dielectric-filled waveguide and the ultra-thin cavity filter.The heights of the microstrip line,the dielectric-filled waveguide and the ultra-thin cavity filter are the same,enabling seamless integration within a planar radio-frequency(RF)circuit.To facilitate testing,mature finline transition structures are integrated at both ends of the microstrip line during fabrications.The simulation results of the fabricated microstrip to ultra-thin cavity filter transition with the finline transition structure,with a passband of 91.5-96.5 GHz,has an insertion loss of less than 1.9 dB and a return loss lower than-20 dB.And the whole structure has also been measured which achieves an insertion loss less than 2.6 dB and a return loss lower than-15 dB within the filter's passband,including the additional insertion loss introduced by the finline transitions.Finally,a W-band compact up-conversion module is designed,and the test results show that after using the proposed structure,the module achieves 95 dBc suppression of the 84 GHz local oscillator.It is also demonstrated that the structure proposed in this letter achieves miniaturization of the system integration without compromising the filter performance.

文摘The influence of geometric configuration on the friction characteristics during incremental sheet forming of AA5052 was analyzed by integrating surface morphology and its characteristic parameters,along with plastic strain,contact pressure,and area.The interface promotes lubrication and support when wall angles were≤40°,a 0.5 mm-thin sheet was used,and a 10 mm-large tool radius was employed.This mainly results in micro-plowing and plastic extrusion flow,leading to lower friction coefficient.However,when wall angles exceed 40°,significant plastic strain roughening occurs,leading to inadequate lubrication on the newly formed surface.Increased sheet thickness and decreased tool radius elevate contact pressure.These actions trigger micro-cutting and adhesion,potentially leading to localized scuffing and dimple tears,and higher friction coefficient.The friction mechanisms remain unaffected by the part’s plane curve features.As the forming process progresses,abrasive wear intensifies,and surface morphology evolves unfavorably for lubrication and friction reduction.

文摘This article examines the influence of annealing temperature on fracture toughness and forming limit curves of dissimilar aluminum/silver sheets.In the cold roll bonding process,after brushing and acid washing,the prepared surfaces are placed on top of each other and by rolling with reduction more than 50%,the bonding between layers is established.In this research,the roll bonding process was done at room temperature,without the use of lubricants and with a 70%thickness reduction.Then,the final thickness of the Ag/Al bilayer sheet reached 350μm by several stages of cold rolling.Before cold rolling,it should be noted that to decrease the hardness created due to plastic deformation,the roll-bonded samples were subjected to annealing heat treatment at 400℃for 90 min.Thus,the final samples were annealed at 200,300 and 400℃for 90 min and cooled in a furnace to examine the annealing temperature effects.The uniaxial tensile and microhardness tests measured mechanical properties.Also,to investigate the fracture mechanism,the fractography of the cross-section was examined by scanning electron microscope(SEM).To evaluate the formability of Ag/Al bilayer sheets,forming limit curves were obtained experimentally through the Nakazima test.The resistance of composites to failure due to cracking was also investigated by fracture toughness.The results showed that annealing increases the elongation and formability of the Ag/Al bilayer sheet while reduces the ultimate tensile strength and fracture toughness.However,the changing trend is not the same at different temperatures,and according to the results,the most significant effect is obtained at 300℃and aluminum layers.It was also determined that by increasing annealing temperature,the fracture mechanism from shear ductile with small and shallow dimples becomes ductile with deep cavities.

文摘The equimolar NbZrTi medium-entropy alloy(MEA)has attracted attention due to its excellent comprehensive mechanical properties.In this study,the designed body-centered cubic NbZrTiAl_(4)(atomic percent,at%)MEA by Al addition,having a superplastic extensibility of~5000%under cold rolling,enables directly fabricated ultrathin foils with a thickness down to~0.2 mm without any treatments.Particularly,the annealed NbZrTiAl_(4) MEA foils,containing a coherent nanoscale B2,exhibit an ultrahigh yield strength of up to~1130 MPa,which even surpasses the bulk counterpart,while maintaining a good fracture elongation of up to~14%.The Al addition induced a stronger solid solution strengthening and fine-grain strengthening in the foils.Complex dislocation interactions and dislocation–B2 interactions promoted a dynamical formation of dislocation bands,which yielded work-hardening ability and tensile ductility.These findings provide a novel strategy for the design of ultrathin refractory medium-entropy foils to break through their performance limits at ultrahigh temperatures and guide the design of high-performance lightweight foils for structural applications.

文摘The textured roll and polished roll were applied instead of the ground roll in a 20-high mill to conduct two-pass rolling of 316L stainless steel strip with thickness of 0.027 mm.After the two-pass rolling with the textured roll and polished roll(TPR),the surface roughness of the strip is dramatically reduced,and the surface topographical anisotropy index is diminished to 30.9%of the initial strip.Comparing with the strip rolled using the ground roll in both passes(GGR),the elongation of TPR rolled strip is obviously improved,and the mechanical property anisotropy is greatly weakened.The anisotropy index of tensile strength and elongation are 42.58%and 52.59%of that of GGR rolled strip,which is mainly attributed to the significant decrease of the texture intensity of the strip by TPR process.The results indicate that TPR process can obtain the stainless steel ultra-thin strip with smooth and uniform surface topography and good mechanical properties.

文摘A novel laser-based additive manufacturing approach of metal additive manufacturing using powder sheets(MAPS)has been introduced recently.The method utilizes polymer-bound powder sheets for metal AM as a feedstock,instead of loose powders.Conventional laser beam powder bed fusion(LPBF)additive manufacturing(AM)is among the most widespread 3D printing technologies.However,LPBF faces challenges related to safety and the impracticality of changing materials due to its reliance on loose powders.Thus,MAPS demonstrates the capability to overcome the limitations of LPBF by offering enhanced safety and the ability to print multi-material structures without the risk of material cross-contamination.As a part of developing processes,we investigate the effects of polymeric binder content on the printability and microstructural characteristics of MAPS-printed stainless steel 316 L.The results indicate that the average layer thickness of solidified material improves as the scanning speed decreases from 1000 mm/s to 50 mm/s across three different polymeric binder contents:10 wt%,20 wt%,and 30 wt%PCL.Additionally,a higher polymeric binder content(i.e.20 wt%and 30 wt%)in the powder sheets reduces the likelihood of crack formation.Electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD)analysis reveals that an increase in scanning speed promotes the formation of more equiaxed grains,while an increase in polymer content results in a reduction in grain size.These findings provide valuable insights into optimizing MAPS configurations for enhanced productivity and functionality in metal component manufacturing.

文摘Rechargeable magnesium batteries(RMBs)have attracted much attention due to the high theoretical capacity(3833 mAh cm−3)of magnesium metal negative electrode and abundant resources.However,the preparation of ultra-thin magnesium foils faces the problems of rolling difficulty and high processing cost,while the use of thick magnesium foils leads to low utilization of magnesium and reduces the energy density.To tackle the above problems,we successfully prepared ultra-thin magnesium foils based on electrolytic process and investigated the effect of different substrates.The magnesium foils prepared using Mo substrate have more uniform surface morphology and lower surface roughness,which is attributed to the lower magnesium nucleation overpotential of Mo substrate.Meanwhile,density functional theory calculations show that the adsorption energy of Mo on Mg is more negative,which is conducive to achieving uniform nucleation and deposition of Mg.The Mg deposition on Mo substrate undergoes the characteristic stages of transient nucleation,nucleus accretion,multidirectional heterotopic growth,and columnar crystal stacking,and ultimately the formation of a dense deposited layer.In addition,the prepared ultra-thin Mg foil with Mo substrate can stably cycle for 1000 h at 3 mA cm^(-2) with high utilization of 50% in the symmetric cell.This study develops a facile method for the preparation of ultra-thin Mg foils,which opens up a new path for developing high-performance ultra-thin negative electrodes for RMBs.
文摘This study focuses on the risks associated with the on-balance sheet recognition of data resources.At the legal level,disputes over ownership often arise due to unclear data property rights,while privacy protection,cybersecurity,and cross-border data flows create additional compliance challenges.In terms of recognition,the subjectivity of traditional valuation methods,the lack of active markets,and the rapid depreciation of data value caused by technological iteration hinder reliable measurement.With respect to disclosure,organizations face a dilemma between transparency and confidentiality.Collectively,these issues exacerbate audit risks.It is therefore imperative to establish an appropriate legal,accounting,and auditing framework to mitigate such risks and remove barriers to the proper recognition of data assets on balance sheets.

文摘Edge cracking is one of the most serious problems in the rolling process of magnesium alloy sheets,which limits its application.In this work,the edge cracking behavior of different initial AZ31 alloy sheets,including as-cast(AC),as-rolled(AR)and as-extruded(AE),was systematically investigated and compared under the online heating rolling(O-LHR)process with a single-pass reduction of 50% at 250℃.The results show that both AC and AR sheets exhibit severe edge cracking behavior after the O-LHR.Among them,the AR sheet exhibits the severest edge cracking behavior on the rolling plane(RD-TD)and longitudinal section(RD-ND),which is attributed to the strong basal texture and extremely uneven microstructure with shear bands.While no visible edge crack appears in the AE rolled sheet,which is mainly related to the tilted texture and the more dynamic recrystallization during rolling process.Moreover,it is also found that the micro-cracks of the AC rolled sheet are mainly generated in the local fine-grained area and the twins where recrystallization occurs.In the AR rolled sheet,micro-cracks mainly develop inside the shear bands.Meanwhile,the micro-crack initiation mechanism of AC and AR rolled sheets was also discussed.

文摘The deformation behavior of hot-rolled AZ31 magnesium(Mg)alloy sheet was analyzed when subjected to uniaxial tension along its normal direction at temperatures ranging from 100 to 400℃and strain rates ranging from 0.5 to 100 mm/min.Based on the stress−strain curves and the dynamic material model,the hot processing map was established,which demonstrates that the power dissipation factor(η)is the most sensitive to strain rate at 400℃via absorption of dislocations.At 400℃,sample at 0.5 mm/min possessesηof 0.89 because of its lower kernel average misorientation(KAM)value of 0.51,while sample at 100 mm/min possessesηof 0.46 with a higher KAM value of 1.147.In addition,the flow stress presents a slight decrease of 25.94 MPa at 10 mm/min compared to that at 100 mm/min and 100℃.The reasons are twofold:a special~34°texture component during 100℃-100 mm/min favoring the activation of basal slip,and dynamic recrystallization(DRX)also providing softening effect to some extent by absorbing dislocations.Difference in activation of basal slip among twin laminas during 100℃-100 mm/min results in deformation inhomogeneity within the grains,which generates stress that helps matrix grains tilt to a direction favorable to basal slip,forming the special~34°texture component.

文摘Microcirculation imaging is crucial in understanding the function and health of various tissues and organs.However,conventional imaging methods suffer from fluorescence label dependency,lack of depth resolution,and quantification inaccuracy.Here,we report a light-sheet dynamic light-scattering imaging(LSHDSI)system to overcome these shortcomings.LSH-DSI utilizes selected plane illumination for an optical sectioning,while a time-frequency analysis method retrieves blood flow velocity estimates from dynamic changes in the detected light intensity.We have performed imaging experiments with zebrafish embryos to obtain angiographs from the trunk and head regions.The results show that LSH-DSI can capture label-free tomographic images of microvasculature and three-dimensional quantitative maps of local blood flow velocities.

文摘Fe–Ga sheets with large magnetostriction are required for improving the conversion efficiency under the ultra-high frequencymagnetic field. Trace Tb element doping can simultaneously improve the magnetostriction and ductility of Fe–Ga alloy. However, the im-pact of trace Tb doping on the microstructure and magnetostriction of Fe–Ga thin sheets is an open question. In this paper, the effects oftrace Tb addition on the secondary recrystallization and magnetostriction of Fe–Ga thin sheets are systematically studied by comparing thecharacteristics evolution of precipitation, texture, and nanoinclusions. The results indicate that trace Tb addition accelerates the secondaryrecrystallization of Goss texture due to the combined action of the bimodal size distributed precipitates, smaller grains, and more HEGBsin primary recrystallization. After quenching at 900℃, the magnetostriction value in 0.07 at %Tb-doped Fe_(81)Ga_(19) thin sheets increases by 30% to that of Fe_(81)Ga_(19) thin sheets. The increase in magnetostriction is attributed to the decrease in the number of Tb-rich precipitates andthe higher density of the nanometer-sized modified-D0_(3) inclusions induced by the dissolving of trace Tb elements after quenching. Theseresults demonstrate a simple and efficient approach for preparing Fe–Ga thin sheets with a large magnetostrictive coefficient by a combin-ation of trace RE element addition and conventional rolling method.

文摘During the construction of bank slopes involving pile driving,ensuring slope stability is crucial.This requires the design of appropriate support systems and a thorough evaluation of the failure mechanisms of pile structures under dynamic loading conditions.Based on the Huarong Coal Wharf project,various support schemes are analyzed using numerical simulation methods to calculate and compare slope stability coefficients.The optimal scheme is then identified.Under the selected support scheme,a numerical model of double-row suspended steel sheet piles is developed to investigate the dynamic response of the pile structures under pile driving loads.A time-history analysis is performed to assess the slope’s dynamic stability.The results show that the maximum displacements of the upper and lower steel sheet pile rows are 2.51 and 3.14 cm,respectively.The maximum principal stresses remain below 20 MPa in both rows,while the maximum von Mises stresses are 20.85 MPa for the upper row and 25.40 MPa for the lower row.The dominant frequencies of the steel sheet pile structures fall between 30 and 35 Hz,with a frequency bandwidth ranging from 0 to 500 Hz.The stability coefficient of the pile structures varies over time during the pile driving process,ultimately reaching a value of 1.26—exceeding the required safety threshold.This research provides practical guidance for designing support systems in wharf piling projects and offers a reliable basis for evaluating the safety performance of steel sheet piles in bank slopes.
