The 3D numerical simulation of the divergent extrusion process in- cluding the welding stage for complicated hollow sections was conducted. Based on the analysis of flowing behaviors, the flowing velocities of the alloy in portholes and near the welding planes were properly controlled through optimizing the expansion angle as well as porthole ar- eas and positions. After the die structure optimization, defects such as warp, wrist, and the wavelike are eliminated, which improves the sec- tion-forming quality. Meanwhile, the temperature distribution in the cross section is uniform. Especially, the temperature of the C-shape notch with a larger thickness is lower than that of other regions in the cross section, which is beneficial for balancing the alloy flowing velocity.展开更多

Meanwhile, the effect of PRPP on the precipitates and corrosion resistance of 7055 aluminum alloy plate was investigated. The mechanisms were analyzed and discussed by optical microscopy (OM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD) technique. Large PRPP can improve the corrosion resistance. For the plate rolled by small PRPP, the main precipitate is guinier-preston (GP) zone and continuous grain boundary precipitates (GBPs), while, for the plate rolled by large PRPP, the main precipitates are the GP zone and η precipitate, and the GBPs are discontinuous.展开更多
