Hydrocarbon-degrading microbial communities with high tolerance to and high degrading ability of crude oil were obtained from the soil contaminated with crude oil in the Yellow River Delta. Then, the microbial cells were immobilized in sodium alginate (SA) beads and sodium Mginate-diatomite (SAD) beads. The biodegradation of crude oil in soil by immobilized cells was compared with that by free cells at three inoculation concentrations, 1× 104 colony forming units (cfu) kg-^(-1)(low concentration, L), 5 × 104 cfu kg^(-1) (medium concentration, M), and 1× 105 cfu kg^(-1) (high concentration, H). At 20 d after inoculation, the maximum degradation rate in the immobilized systems reached 29.8% (SAD-M), significantly higher (P 〈 0.05) than that of the free cells (21.1%), and the SAD beads showed greater degradation than the SA beads. Moreover, both microbial populations and total microbial activity reached significantly higher level (P 〈 0.05) in the immobilized systems than free cell systems at a same initial inoculation amount. The scanning electronic microscope (SEM) images also confirmed the advantages of the immobilized microstructure of SAD beads. The enhanced degradation and bacterial growth in the SAD beads indicated the high potential of SAD beads as an effective option for bioremediation of crude oil-contaminated soils in the Yellow River Delta.展开更多

Specimens were subjected to friction stir welding with the rotation rates of 750, 950 and 1180 r/min and welding speed between 73 and 190 mm/min, providing R/v ratio between 5.00 and 10.27. The welded joints were tested by means of both non-destructive (visual, penetrant and X-ray inspection) and destructive (metallographic, tension and hardness) testing. In all specimens typical zones are revealed, with corresponding differences in grain size. Tensile efficiency of the joints obtained is in the range of 52.2%to 82.3%. The results show that the best quality is obtained at R/v ratio of 8.06, 10.17 and 10.27. This behavior is attributed to the assumption that the material flows around the pin with an optimal speed, i.e. sufficient amount of material is available to fill the gap and prevent tunnel formation. R/v ratio also showed influence on hardness distribution, onion features and crack initiation/propagation zones.展开更多

In this paper, different quenching processes of AISI P20 steel block such as oil quenching, direct water quenching, water quenching with precooling and water quenching with pre-cooling and self-tempering were numerically investigated by computer simulation based on the detailed discussion on the mathematical models of quenching processes including partial differential equations of heat transfer, thermal physical properties, latent heat, heat transfer coefficient and calculation of phase transformation, The results show that the water quenching with pre-cooling and self-tempering process can not only effectively avoid quenching cracks, but also obtain deeper harden depth than oil quenching.展开更多

Evaluating the vibration stress of blade that leads to cracking is very useful for analysis of vibration fatigue. In this paper, fatigue stress estimation methods by quantitative fractography were studied through experimental blade and in-service first-stage compressor blade in order to evaluate the initiation vibration stress of in-service blade. The analysis process of initiation vibration stress was established. The evaluating result of vibration stress of in-service blade subjected to centrifugal force and bending vibration stress agrees with aero engine test result. It is shown that the evaluation method can not only evaluate the equivalent fatigue stresses of different crack depths but also yield the initiation equivalent fatigue stress.展开更多

The microstructures of the alloys were characterized by X-ray diffractometry(XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The oxide scales of both alloys oxidized at 1 200 ℃ for 10 min, 2 h and 100 h were investigated by surface XRD and cross-sectional SEM-EDS. The results show that the matrix of both alloys consists of T2. The dispersions of Mo-12.5Si-25B alloy are Mo and Mo3Si, and the dispersions of Mo-14Si-28B alloy are Mo5Si3 (T1) and MoB. The cyclic oxidation kinetics data exhibit initial rapid mass loss followed by slow mass loss. The mass loss of Mo-12.5Si-25B alloy is much faster than that of Mo-14Si-28B alloy at 1 200 and 1 300 ℃. For 10 min exposure, both alloys form irregular and porous thin scale. For 2 h exposure, Mo-12.5Si-25B alloy forms irregular thin scale and the scale contains large cracks, and Mo-14Si-28B alloy forms sound and continuous scale. For 100 h exposure, Mo-12.5Si-25B and Mo-14Si-28B alloys form sound and continuous scale about 50-75 μm and 40-45 μm in thickness, respectively. The better oxidation resistance of Mo-14Si-28B alloy is due to a sound and continuous B-SiO2 layer formation in the early stage of oxidation.展开更多

With the increase in strain, the austenite goes through from the work-hardened to the partial dynamcally re-crystallized and then to the completed dynamically re-crystallized. The martensitic transformation characteristics depend on the austenite states. The work-hardening in small strain is helpful to martensitic transformation due to the low dislocation density and little lattice distortion, while the high dislocation density and severe lattice distortion by the increase in strain will hinder the martensitic nucleation. Once dynamic re-crystallization ( DRX ) takes place, the martensitic transformation will be enhanced again, which is related to the heterogeneous dynamic substructures. The growing DRX grain can enhance the martensitic nucleation due to the low dislocation density near its grain boundary.展开更多

文摘Numerous defects at the buried interface of perovskite film and the exacerbated oxidation and degradation of tin-lead(Sn-Pb)perovskites induced by poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate)(PEDOT:PSS),due to its hygroscopic and acidic nature,limit performance improvement of SnPb perovskite solar cells(PSCs).To address these issues,1-Ethyl-3-Guanidinothiourea-Hydrochloride(EGH)was employed as a multifunctional modifier at the PEDOT:PSS/perovskite interface to regulate the buried interface behaviors of Sn-Pb PSCs.EGH can not only passivate the defects of the perovskite buried interface and regulate the work function of PEDOT:PSS for a more matched interface energy level,but also prevent the perovskite film from erosion damage by the acidic PEDOT:PSS for a more stable PEDOT:PSS/perovskite interface.Moreover,the interfacial charge transport dynamics were significantly improved by obviously suppressing interfacial non-radiative recombination losses.As a consequence,EGH-tailored 1.25 eV Sn-Pb PSCs yielded a champion PCE of 23.20%,featuring enhanced long-term stability.

文摘The fabrication of efficient and stable flexible perovskite solar modules(F-PSMs)using poly[bis(4-phenyl)(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)amine](PTAA)remains a significant challenge due to its hydrophobic properties and the mismatch in interface energy-level alignment.Here,we introduced[2-(3,6-dimethoxy-9H-carba zol-9-yl)ethyl]phosphonic acid(MeO-2PACz)to modify the PTAA layer,which effectively suppressed surface potential fluctuations and aligned energy levels at the interface of PTAA/perovskite.Additionally,MeO-2PACz enhanced the hydrophilicity of PTAA,facilitating the fabrication of dense,uniform,and pinhole-free perovskite films on large-area flexible substrates.As a result,we achieved an F-PSM with a power conversion efficiency(PCE)of 16.6% and an aperture area of 64 cm^(2),which is the highest reported value among F-PSMs with an active area exceeding 35 cm^(2)based on PTAA.Moreover,the encapsulated module demonstrated outstanding long-term operational stability,retaining 90.2% of its initial efficiency after 1000 bending cycles(5 mm radius),87.2% after 1000 h of continuous illumination,and 80.3% under combined thermal and humid conditions(85℃ and 85% relative humidity),representing one of the most stable F-PSMs reported to date.

文摘The efficiencies of free and immobilized bacterial cultures of petroleum hydrocarbon degraders were evaluated and compared in this study. Hydrocarbon-degrading microbial communities with high tolerance to and high degrading ability of crude oil were obtained from the soil contaminated with crude oil in the Yellow River Delta. Then, the microbial cells were immobilized in sodium alginate (SA) beads and sodium Mginate-diatomite (SAD) beads. The biodegradation of crude oil in soil by immobilized cells was compared with that by free cells at three inoculation concentrations, 1× 104 colony forming units (cfu) kg-^(-1)(low concentration, L), 5 × 104 cfu kg^(-1) (medium concentration, M), and 1× 105 cfu kg^(-1) (high concentration, H). At 20 d after inoculation, the maximum degradation rate in the immobilized systems reached 29.8% (SAD-M), significantly higher (P 〈 0.05) than that of the free cells (21.1%), and the SAD beads showed greater degradation than the SA beads. Moreover, both microbial populations and total microbial activity reached significantly higher level (P 〈 0.05) in the immobilized systems than free cell systems at a same initial inoculation amount. The scanning electronic microscope (SEM) images also confirmed the advantages of the immobilized microstructure of SAD beads. The enhanced degradation and bacterial growth in the SAD beads indicated the high potential of SAD beads as an effective option for bioremediation of crude oil-contaminated soils in the Yellow River Delta.

文摘The influence of R/v ratio on joint quality in 2024-T351 aluminum alloy was studied. Specimens were subjected to friction stir welding with the rotation rates of 750, 950 and 1180 r/min and welding speed between 73 and 190 mm/min, providing R/v ratio between 5.00 and 10.27. The welded joints were tested by means of both non-destructive (visual, penetrant and X-ray inspection) and destructive (metallographic, tension and hardness) testing. In all specimens typical zones are revealed, with corresponding differences in grain size. Tensile efficiency of the joints obtained is in the range of 52.2%to 82.3%. The results show that the best quality is obtained at R/v ratio of 8.06, 10.17 and 10.27. This behavior is attributed to the assumption that the material flows around the pin with an optimal speed, i.e. sufficient amount of material is available to fill the gap and prevent tunnel formation. R/v ratio also showed influence on hardness distribution, onion features and crack initiation/propagation zones.

文摘The effects of T4,T5,and T6 treatment on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the extruded Mg-4.3Gd-3.2Y-1.2Zn-0.5Zr(wt.%)alloy with a relatively low RE content(7.5 wt.%)were investigated.T4 treatment at 450–500°C induces a gradual grain growth ofα-Mg but an obvious transition of texture component from<0001>⊥ED to<0001>∥ED.Interdendritic LPSO phases are highly stable against annealing while intragranular ones experience dissolution and re-precipitation.After peak-ageing at 200°C,the elongation of as-extruded and T4 samples is just slightly reduced or even increased due to the weak ageing hardening response.T5 sample exhibits an attractive combination of strength and ductility,with a tensile yield strength(TYS)of 303 MPa and elongation of 20.0%.The Hall–Petch relation for the alloys with or without ageing treatment has been estimated.Grain boundary strengthening rather than precipitation strengthening has the dominant contribution to TYS,and a modified equation is developed to predict grain boundary strengthening values for Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr alloys which contain different Schmid factors for basal slip.
文摘For large-sized AISI P20 steel block used as plastic die with a thickness of more than 200 mm, appropriate quenching processes are the key to obtain much thick hardened layer. In this paper, different quenching processes of AISI P20 steel block such as oil quenching, direct water quenching, water quenching with precooling and water quenching with pre-cooling and self-tempering were numerically investigated by computer simulation based on the detailed discussion on the mathematical models of quenching processes including partial differential equations of heat transfer, thermal physical properties, latent heat, heat transfer coefficient and calculation of phase transformation, The results show that the water quenching with pre-cooling and self-tempering process can not only effectively avoid quenching cracks, but also obtain deeper harden depth than oil quenching.
文摘The mechanical behaviour of a quasi-brittle material,i.e.Pietra Serena sandstone,was investigated both numerically and experimentally in order to build a reliable numerical modelling system applicable to more complex cases.The Karagozian and Case concrete(KCC)model was exploited as the material constitutive law and a new method to utilise this model for efficient and accurate simulation of quasibrittle materials is discussed.The capability of this model is evaluated by comparing the results of the numerical simulations with the corresponding experimental results,and the method itself is critically assessed.

文摘Vibration fatigue is the main failure mode of compressor blade. Evaluating the vibration stress of blade that leads to cracking is very useful for analysis of vibration fatigue. In this paper, fatigue stress estimation methods by quantitative fractography were studied through experimental blade and in-service first-stage compressor blade in order to evaluate the initiation vibration stress of in-service blade. The analysis process of initiation vibration stress was established. The evaluating result of vibration stress of in-service blade subjected to centrifugal force and bending vibration stress agrees with aero engine test result. It is shown that the evaluation method can not only evaluate the equivalent fatigue stresses of different crack depths but also yield the initiation equivalent fatigue stress.

文摘Two Mo5SiB2 (T2)-based alloys with nominal compositions of Mo-12.5Si-25B and Mo-14Si-28B (molar fraction, %) were prepared in an arc-melting furnace, and their oxidation kinetics from 1 000 to 1 300 ℃ were studied. The microstructures of the alloys were characterized by X-ray diffractometry(XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The oxide scales of both alloys oxidized at 1 200 ℃ for 10 min, 2 h and 100 h were investigated by surface XRD and cross-sectional SEM-EDS. The results show that the matrix of both alloys consists of T2. The dispersions of Mo-12.5Si-25B alloy are Mo and Mo3Si, and the dispersions of Mo-14Si-28B alloy are Mo5Si3 (T1) and MoB. The cyclic oxidation kinetics data exhibit initial rapid mass loss followed by slow mass loss. The mass loss of Mo-12.5Si-25B alloy is much faster than that of Mo-14Si-28B alloy at 1 200 and 1 300 ℃. For 10 min exposure, both alloys form irregular and porous thin scale. For 2 h exposure, Mo-12.5Si-25B alloy forms irregular thin scale and the scale contains large cracks, and Mo-14Si-28B alloy forms sound and continuous scale. For 100 h exposure, Mo-12.5Si-25B and Mo-14Si-28B alloys form sound and continuous scale about 50-75 μm and 40-45 μm in thickness, respectively. The better oxidation resistance of Mo-14Si-28B alloy is due to a sound and continuous B-SiO2 layer formation in the early stage of oxidation.

文摘In the marine environment,the protective coatings face serious corrosion and biofouling problem,lim-itations,and challenges that made self-healing coatings unable to perform both anti-corrosion and anti-biofouling dual-function at the same time.Here we constructed the corrosion resistance and anti-biofouling self-healing coating by integrating nano-containers into the coating matrix,the 2-Undecylimidazoline(ULM)acted as a corrosion inhibitor and anti-biofouling dual-functional agent which was loaded on the natural container attapulgite(ATP).To obtain high healing efficiency,a fluidity-driven self-healing silicone oil coating was thickened by fibrous ATP to enhance its stability,which played a key role in the self-healing and long-term corrosion resistance.The self-healing time of ULM@ATP rein-forced oil coating was 4 s at least in the air and up to 30 s in the 1 M HCl solution.Meanwhile,the ULM@ATP can significantly enhance the corrosion resistance of the self-healing coating,with the best effect achieved when the content of ULM@ATP was 5 wt.%.The impedance modulus of ULM@ATP-2 still reached 1.62×10^(8)Ωcm^(2) after 480 immersion in 3.5 wt.%NaCl solution,which is 3 orders of magnitude high than pure Oil coating(2.17×10^(5)Ωcm^(2)).The restructure of the ATP network and the release of ULM could largely inhibit the corrosion of metal.The continuous open circuit potential of the compos-ite coating performed the potentially infinite self-healing capacity.The self-healing performances of the composite coating in strong acid and base solutions exhibited high environmental suitability.This anti-corrosion and anti-biofouling(the surface coverage of adhered chlorella decreased 96.88%)dual-function strategy of self-healing coatings could be also realized by many other porous nano-materials or function modifications.The self-healing performances of the composite coating in strong acid and base solutions exhibited high environmental suitability.This anti-corrosion and anti-biofouling dual-function strategy of self-healing coatings could be also realized by many other porous nano-materials or function modifica-tions.The rapid response self-healing coating possessed anti-biofouling and active self-healing functions and showed wide application under more service environments.
文摘The study focused on investigating the effect of Deep Cryogenic Treatment(DCT)on the mechanical and ballistic properties of AA7075-T6 aluminum alloy.The microstructure,microhardness,tensile strength,and impact strength of the Base Material(BM)and DCT-treated 7075 samples were analyzed through metallographic analysis and mechanical tests.The microstructure of the DCT-treated 7075 samples revealed fine grains and a distribution of secondary phase particles.The tensile strength,impact strength,and microhardness of DCT-treated samples increased by 7.41%,4%,and 9.68%,respectively,compared to the BM samples.The fractography analysis of the tensile samples showed cleavage facets,microvoids,and dimples in both the samples.The ballistic behavior of the BM and DCT target plates were studied by impacting hard steel core projectiles at a velocity of 750±10 m/s.The target plates failed due to petaling and ductile hole enlargement,and the depth of penetration(DOP)of the DCT target was less than that of the BM target,indicating a higher ballistic resistance.The post-ballistic microstructure examination of the target plates showed the formation of an Adiabatic Shear Band(ASB)without any cracks.It was concluded that the DCT treatment improved the mechanical and ballistic properties of the aluminum alloy due to grain refinement and high dislocation density.

文摘Creep experiments of the TiAl alloy with high Nb content were conducted to consider both the temperature dependence and stress dependence of its creep behavior.The creep curves were characterized by Theta constitutive model,and Newton-Gauss method was applied to obtain the material parameters.Based on the rupture strain,the rupture life of the TiAl alloy was able to be predicted by Theta constitutive model.The results show that the creep curves of the TiAl alloy contain primary creep,secondary creep and tertiary creep stages,especially for the lower stress.The rupture life of the TiAl alloy decreases with the increase in either applied stress or temperature.Theta constitutive model is able to describe the creep deformation of the TiAl alloy accurately,and the predicted life agrees well with the experimental result.

文摘The Hot deformation and martensitic transformation behaviors of Fe-32%Ni alloy was investigated by measurements of electrical resistance and X-ray diffraction. With the increase in strain, the austenite goes through from the work-hardened to the partial dynamcally re-crystallized and then to the completed dynamically re-crystallized. The martensitic transformation characteristics depend on the austenite states. The work-hardening in small strain is helpful to martensitic transformation due to the low dislocation density and little lattice distortion, while the high dislocation density and severe lattice distortion by the increase in strain will hinder the martensitic nucleation. Once dynamic re-crystallization ( DRX ) takes place, the martensitic transformation will be enhanced again, which is related to the heterogeneous dynamic substructures. The growing DRX grain can enhance the martensitic nucleation due to the low dislocation density near its grain boundary.
