The superplasticity of Al-6Mg-0.4Mn-0.25Sc-0.12Zr and Al-6Mg-0.4Mn-0.25Er-0.12Zr(mass fraction,%)alloys sheet was investigated,and the effect of Sc and Er was discussed.The results show that the superplastic ductiliti...The superplasticity of Al-6Mg-0.4Mn-0.25Sc-0.12Zr and Al-6Mg-0.4Mn-0.25Er-0.12Zr(mass fraction,%)alloys sheet was investigated,and the effect of Sc and Er was discussed.The results show that the superplastic ductilities of Al-Mg-Mn-Sc-Zr alloy was higher than that of Al-Mg-Mn-Er-Zr alloy at a wide temperature range of 400-540°C and high strain rate range of1.67×10-4-1.67×10-1 s-1.A maximum elongation 673%is obtained at 520°C and 1.67×10-3 s-1 in the Sc-containing alloy;while the Er-containing alloy only gets a maximum elongation 253%at 520°C and 1.67×10-3 s-1.Moreover,the average stress exponent of Sc-containing alloy is about 2.84,which is smaller than that of Er-containing alloy(3.64).Besides,the activation energies of the Sc-containing and Er-containing alloy are 84.8 k J/mol and 87.2 k J/mol,respectively.It is indicated that grain boundary sliding is the dominant mechanism during tensile deformation.According to microstructure examination,the better superplasticity of Sc-containing alloy may be attributed to the presence of Al3_(Sc,Zr)dispersoids,which can inhibit recrystallization and grain growth effectively.展开更多

The surface to be bonded was spiked by punching small holes of 2 mm in diameter with 10 mm spacing. The aim is to increase bonding capacity by having small studs. Five beams with the dimension of 100 mm x 200 mm x 3,000 mm were tested where one of the beams was used as control beam (unstrengthened). The remaining beams were strengthened with different configurations before tested to failure under four-point loading. The results showed that the ductility was increased as the percentage of CFRP increased. The ductility was dramatically improved where the highest ductility index based on deflection method was 2.2 where the percentage increase was 37.5%, whereas the highest ductility index based on energy method was 3.2 where the percentage increase was 88.2%. From this study, it was found that 0.3% is the optimum value of CFRP area to achieve maximum ductility index. Ductility index obtained from energy method gives higher values when compared to deflection method. All beams in this study did not fail due to peel off or debonding. It was also proved that the spikes that have been made at the wood surface were very effective for bonding.展开更多
